We had an amazing stay at The Ritz-Carlton Bacara. The property is stunning—peaceful, safe, and beautifully maintained. Our room was spacious and super comfortable, with a great bed and luxurious linens. We especially loved how quiet the area was at night, which made it easy to relax and get good sleep. Parking was super easy, and the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The food on-site was excellent, and we really appreciated the variety of dining options nearby too. The location feels secluded but still close to shopping and restaurants, which was perfect. All in all, it was a wonderful experience. We’d definitely come back!

Big turn over with staff, lacking in training. Poise and manners and basic customer care that a Ritz property usually demands. Lack of pride that they get to work for this incredible company. No toiletries (cotton balls, qtips, shoe buffers, inconsistent turn down service, no mini bar…. A lot of things you expect from a Ritz Carlton. It seems to be finding a hard time meeting the potential the brand operates at. 5 Star property with 3 star service. Worth going, but don’t expect to be over the top WOW’d especially if you are used to 5 star resorts. No one really goes above and beyond, it was our 15 year anniversary and there was no atta room to that detail. I hate to complain, and there is just a level you expect at $1000/night.

Beautiful location. General Staff was not up to what I'd expect at a Ritz. I got called Hey lady several times by pool wait staff. Adult pool wait staff sat in corner instead of picking up trash around pool and checking on guests. Had to call front desk at 5 pm to get our room cleaned up. Wait staff didnt clear unused place settings or used small plates. Nothing terrible but not what you'd expect for a top notch place. Beach was ok. Staff needs much more training
