The exclusive Ritz-Carlton Marina del Rey offers a unique Los Angeles experience for those who want to enjoy the sights as well as the finer things in life. Located on the quayside at Marina del Rey, guests at this luxurious property can enjoy the sights and the sounds of the boats gently bobbing in their slips. Vibrant Venice Beach and laid back Santa Monica are a short drive or cycle ride away, or you can use the ocean front boardwalk and enjoy the stroll along this famous stretch of beach. The hotel has a delightful swimming pool that faces out to the marina giving guests an exclusive oasis in which to soak up the southern Californian sunshine. There is also a superb spa where your therapist will tailor your therapy specifically to you, be it a one-off relaxing massage to a full day of treatments and pampering. In addition you can work up a sweat in the state-of-the-art fitness centre which is complete with eucalyptus steam rooms. During the day guests around the pool can enjoy food and drinks from the poolside Wave Bar & Grill. Alternatively head to Cast & Plow, the hotel's bar and restaurant where you can enjoy waterfront dining with tapas-style servings from local suppliers. Rooms are classically elegant with rich tones of blue and gold. Deluxe Rooms each come with a Juliet balcony and views over the pool or marina, while Marina Terrace Guestrooms boast walk-out balconies complete with chairs from which you can enjoy the stunning views.
