nice place, a big hotel, but a good setting. Not buget, but it is the Ritz. Wonderful bar setting. Over all good service and friendly staff. Food was high even for the setting. wonderful views, but must admit we had just come fron Ventana Inn at big sur and were very spoiled there. For sure the best place in Half... More

Just completed our first stay at this wonderful property. The pictures on the Ritz website are accurate, it really is this beautiful. Wife and I upgraded to a very nice coastal view room on top floor with picture windows in both directions. Hotel overlooks golf courses and a gorgeous rocky coast. Bagpiper at sunset a nice touch.

We stayed at the Ritz Carlton for my husband's birthday and it was perfect. We booked a firepit room which was so beautiful. We each had a 60 minute massage in their gorgeous spa. The restaurant is unbelievable. Although this place is pricey, you will never forget the experience. I am still smiling.

My sister loves this place. This is a must do if you are visiting San Fransisco or you are in Bay Area. This place has one of the most beautiful golf courses of the world! I visited this place in April 2005 and I still have some good memories of the place!

I booked two rooms here as the Ritz in San Francisco was completely full. But, what a great surprise. I was less than impressed with my last stay at the Ritz SF, and this one reinstated my faith in the Ritz Carlton brand (post-Marriott buy out). The rooms were simple but nice with a bit of personality (rare for a... More

The Ritz Carlton Half Moon Bay is another of Ritz Carlton's breathtaking locations, but the staff members are equally amazing. They were the nicest and most warmly welcoming hotel staff we have ever encountered, and our stay was replete with special attentions and instantly-met requests. The view from the main building is terrific, and we preferred that location to the... More

This hotel is set on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean - it's amazing. That said, without that location, it wouldn't have garnered 5 stars. Accommodations: 3-4 stars. We had a ground-floor, oceanview, firepit suite. It was very well-appointed, with amazing views - though I honestly could have done without the golfers in the evening, but I'm not going to... More

You'll get everything you expect, plus more! The staff is amazing. Rumor has it, each staff member has the authority to spend upwards of $1,000 without approval of a manager to make you happy. They take customer service very seriously! The location cannot be beat. We've been here two Januarys in a row and have been amazed at the glorious... More

What an amazing place. Secluded with breathtaking views of the Pacific ocean. On a cliff, you want to walk out to the edge, turn around, and just stand in awe of how beautiful it is. Rooms are very quiet. The beds are incredibly sumptuous and comfy at the same time. If you get a room in the 800's you'll be... More
