The Ritz-Carlton Palm Beach

If the Breakers is too mammoth for your taste, consider the Ritz. A lot warmer than the Four Seasons, the Ritz, located on a beautiful beach in a tiny town about 8 miles from Worth Avenue, lacks pretension and feels more like a boutique hotel. A $130-million renovation in 2007 added flatscreen HDTVs, bedside electronic control "pamper panels," and Italian custom mahogany furniture. Oceanfront suites have oceanview stone soaking tubs, a sofa sleeper, two-line phones, and two HDTVs. Two pools are perfect for families and/or ideal for relaxation. The 42,000-square-foot Eau Spa debuted in March 2009, complete with a custom Scrub and Polish Bar, Bath Lounge, Spa Villas with outdoor verdant gardens, and the Self-Centered Garden featuring water massage benches. A casual oceanfront all-day restaurant called Temple Orange features Italian/Mediterranean fare with fresh seafood. Breeze, the "gourmet" Burger Patio and Bar sits on the ocean's edge; while Stir Bar serves muddled, stirred and mixed cocktails and light bites.
