Best Luxury Hotels in George Town

The newest addition to the first-class hotel scene on the exquisite Seven Mile Beach is the Ritz-Carlton that stretches sea to sea from the Caribbean Sea to the North Sound, providing high-profile tourists an ultimate holiday experience at a fabulous 144-acre resort. Each of the guest rooms is designed to be spacious and decadent and comes with touches such as Japanese silk screens. Guests should make sure that they secure one of the ocean facing rooms that come with huge balconies to unwind on. Celebrity chef Eric Ripert presides over the main restaurant and lovers of gourmet cuisine will want to make sure that they sample the seven course tasting menu so that they can sink their teeth into creative dishes such as poached halibut served with radish in a delicate parmesan emulsion and perfectly seared cod with served with sun choke in a rich coq au vin sauce.

With the light and friendly atmosphere of a cool beach club combined with plenty of decadent touches, this resort is sure to appeal to luxury lovers who like a laid-back approach to life. There are nearly 300 rooms to choose from ranging from deluxe kings with balconies through to ocean-view rooms, junior suites and king suites. Guests have the option of taking part in onsite activities such as morning yoga classes, beach bonfires and outdoor film screenings and it’s just a five-minute barefoot walk to the beach and waterfront bars and restaurants.

Offering an excellent location on the sands of Seven Mile Beach, this imposing hotel fits perfectly with the other establishments in the popular luxury hotel brand. Large picture windows can be found throughout the hotel to optimise the position overlooking the Caribbean Sea, while the colour pallet in the lobby reflects the ocean to good effect. There are several different swimming pools to be found in the huge hotel complex and the swim up bar is a decadent touch that guests are sure to love. While each of the guest rooms are very comfortable and feature a bright blue and yellow colour scheme, it is worth paying a little extra for a room that comes complete with a balcony facing the ocean. There are six different eateries onsite for guests to choose from and seafood lovers who have a strong sense of adventure when it comes to dining should try the signature Sea Scallop Benedict, while other culinary treats that are just waiting to be enjoyed include seared yellowfin tuna served with edamame and avocado salad and the refreshingly different wasabi aioli and ginger miso ice cream.
