Our stay at Bacara was exceptional from start to finish. The personalized service stood out immediately, from the warm valet attendants who greeted us by name, to the seamless check in experience, and the turn down service every each night. Each interaction felt genuine without being over bearing. The property itself is stunning, with world class amenities that make it hard to leave: multiple pools, ocean view lounges, spa, and maintained walking paths . The only caveat depending on which villa you're in, you may have a bit of hill to walk. That said, the resort has golf carts to escort guests to their villas (especially handy after a couple of drinks). All in all, Bacara delivers a 5 star experience with warmth, privacy and personalized service.

This is my first review. After check in(which was good) it went downhill. The experience was more Marriott and not Ritz Carlton. Room - nice but weirdly barely furnished. A fireplace but no chairs. The bedding was sub par and the extra blanket we ask for was gross! The initial service at the pool was rude until a lovely girl named Abby took over (she was the best). The food was very disappointing but the prices were insane, especially at Marisela. Overall I was disappointed and bummed. I always wanted to come here.

We had an amazing stay at The Ritz-Carlton Bacara. The property is stunning—peaceful, safe, and beautifully maintained. Our room was spacious and super comfortable, with a great bed and luxurious linens. We especially loved how quiet the area was at night, which made it easy to relax and get good sleep. Parking was super easy, and the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The food on-site was excellent, and we really appreciated the variety of dining options nearby too. The location feels secluded but still close to shopping and restaurants, which was perfect. All in all, it was a wonderful experience. We’d definitely come back!
