The Ritz-Carlton, Fort Lauderdale

Beach experience was absolutely AMAZING!!! Dylan was so kind! Excellent service and so caring. He paid such great attention to our needs and remembered me from a prior visit. Would highly recommend. Great experience! Food and drinks were also top tier.

Very "old" Ritz, not what you expect. My grievances: 1) Hotel is used and old 2) Receptionist dont care baout your status. Early check-in, forget it. They are trying to help but it seemed that they are incompetent to even get you a downgraded room in early check-in. 3) Room-service is unreliable and calling front office wont help. They will just let the phone ring.

I had an amazing stay at the Ritz Carlton Fort Lauderdale in early May 2026. The property is clean and the staff is wonderful, attentive but not intrusive. My stay was made even better by the two knowledgable and professional concierges Carmen Meza and Oscar Smith! Both Carmen and Oscar were helpful and went above and beyond to make my stay special. I cannot thank the staff enough. I was so tired from the brutal northeast winter when I arrived at the Ritz. I left relaxed, renewed, and feeling blessed by the kindness and old world attention to detail provided by the staff at this property.

We decided come back to RC Fort Lauderdale prior to our cruise from Fort Lauderdale. Despite the busy weekend because of the Tortuga Mussic Festival the hotel was an oasis to come back to. The swift check-in and reception from Andrea and Monty was very appreciated. We were very early and our room was not ready but we could wait in the Club Lounge which we booked. This Club Lounge is very well managed by Rueben. This weekend also started their collaboration with Gibson Guitars. It was nice to see Rueben’s passion and enthousiasm for music and guitars. In the evening there were some guitar players, a nice extra touch! Foodpresentations very nice as was service from Robert, Maria and all others in Club. Despite being Ambassaador member with Marriott Bonvoy no upgrade whatsoever but we loved the room! On the morning of departure we had an litlle incident which we mentioned to Rueben and hopefully he took care of it that it will never happen again to other guest. This hotel will definetly be our number one choice when coming back to Fort Lauderdale

Surprised! by old Ritz Carlton Spa locker keys which she said are all like this. EXCELLENT SPA and SERVICES though. Facilities getting old but clean and elegant.
