Book the Ritz Carlton St Thomas with VIP Benefits

The Ritz Carlton St Thomas is a luxury beachfront resort in the US Virgin Islands of the Caribbean. After the devastation of Hurricane Irma in 2017, this elegant hotel received a 100 million renovation. As a result, the hotel again offers top-notch accommodations in line with other resorts in this brand's worldwide portfolio.

Location

St. Thomas is an island gem set in a protected area of marine importance within an archipelago in the aquamarine blue waters of the Atlantic. The group of islands lies immediately west of the British Virgin Islands and east of Puerto Rico.

Red Hook town is a 5-minute drive from the resort with shops and restaurants. Guests usually make for the lively capital, Charlotte Amalie, duty-free and discount shopping. This is where jewelry and perfume are popular goods. The town is also famous for its elegant Danish colonial architecture. Moreover, the King International Airport is half an hour from the resort.

Style and Hospitality

The new décor combines contemporary and traditional luxury with marble flooring and pillars. It also has high vaulted ceilings with colonial-style fans and ornate modern chandeliers.

The gorgeous ocean views and white sand beach dominate views from every complex part. Guests are also greeted by friendly staff and offered cool refreshing drinks while checking in and waiting for their room. Besides, sleek marble corridors lead through the immaculately clean resort.

Features

The Ritz Carlton St Thomas spreads opposite Great Bay, where its luxury catamaran Lady Lynsey II takes guests on sunset cruises, special events, or snorkeling trips. Weekly schedules include trips to explore the nearby British Virgin Islands. The resort also boasts an infinity pool, a new family pool with a slide, and many public spaces to relax and enjoy. There are also four upscale restaurants and the brand's familiar Club Level facilities.
