Very steep rocky entry to beach (I hurt myself climbing back up) and not enough signage to know you have returned to property entrance. Very odd.
Marijuana smell from the outside walkway of my room in 17 block in the evening.
Room service selection very limited compared to other high caliber hotels. Gift shop very limited sundries.
Staff all around mostly all very pleasant.

This property was okay, a little older than I expected it to be, the showers and the room needed a bit of TLC. The proerty grounds were pretty though along with the pool. The service was great, friendly staff, i would stay here again but for the price, the rooms need some renovation.

There is nearly no service, slippers was running out for the two whole days when we stayed. The golf car waiting time is quite long time. The room is smaller than it shows on the picture. The ocean view is half and blocked. The price is pretty expensive and it doesn’t worth that. They over charge me $500. I need to call them even I still on travel. The carpet is dirty. The room smells ugly. The service always quite late. The most efficient service coming soon was when you check out.the restaurants has to wait for long time. The swimming pool is not kid friendly the water is too deep for children.

the property was great. However, the place left me with a very bad impression, when I checked out I realized i left 2 pair of shoes in the closet. I called security, They never called me back. THen they called me several days later. Asked me about the value of the shoes , ($250) and said i would be compensated and they would call me back. THen Brentton from Marriot called me, said they did " an investigation" and would not reimburse me! What investigation was done?? clearly the shoes were taken by the maid(s), and he was rather rude, not helpful. I thought that the Ritz was all about enhancing experience, well unfortunately they failed!

Beautiful place. Friendly staff. However, we sat at the bar in Angel Oak for over 20 minutes before we got our drink and desert order taken and another half hour before it came. Hostess had to get things going and comped it thankfully. Also my lunch order at poolside bar was messed up (but got the sandwich comped which was appreciated). I just think they were terribly understaffed for the busy weekend.

Nothing worked- toilets
People walking into our room without knocking. My wife was bathing with our son and a man walked in without any notice. Tried to report to the hotel GM and no one could get us connected with one. It was a very poor experience. Best they could do is "report with security". Had maintenance team try to enter late at night without us having requested it. Housekeeper just entered 3x without making herself known. It was hard to justify the charges and stay here. Valet also never had our car ready ontime despite requesting it ahead of time.
Food was awful. Such a shame. We really wanted to love this place but was shocked at the entire thing...

The staff, the ambient and overall experience was wonderful. Every staff we encounter were friendly and helpful. It is family friendly establishment but adult can still enjoy all the amenities without being run down by kids.

We stayed in the suite with an ocean view and open bathroom with tub & fireplace. The people were more than helpful and very friendly and professional. We pulled in to the court area, they directed our car to park, remove luggage, delivered to room, shuttled us around the complete complex making recommendations, make sure we had ice. Food was excellently serviced and tasty. Was it pricey, yes, but they are worth every penny. We will go again next year.
