The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay is one of my faves...have only been twice (once on my way back from NSXPO 2003). One of my friends proposed to his wife there too.
I'd share more photos of The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay, but my old photo hosting site is long gone and I still haven't gotten around to re-uploading my photos from NSXPO 2003.
I have a special fondness for The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua...I'll be going there in September (Maui is my favorite of the Hawaiian Islands). I'm looking forward to seeing all of the recent renovations and checking out the new Kapalua Adventure Center...the hotel was closed during my visit last December. Like my photos from NSXPO 2003, all of my photos of the Kapalua property are also offline. They'd be somewhat outdated anyway since I haven't been to the hotel since it has been remodeled.
I haven't been any Ritz-Carlton's outside of the U.S...yet.
Here are photos from The Ritz-Carlton stays that I have online:
Laguna Niguel, CA (view from our room):
Key Biscayne, FL:
South Beach, FL:
Phoenix, AZ (view from room during NSXPO 2005...I never even finished processing these photos):
Marina del Rey, CA (never stayed here, but my wife used to work here when we lived only a mile away):
I also had a really nice stay at The Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park...definitely a great city hotel. I remember really enjoying the buffet at The Ritz-Carlton, San Francisco. Actually, how can you go wrong with any Ritz-Carlton?
