The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay Unveils Property Refresh
The Forbes Five-Star Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay announces a stunning property refresh with extensive updates to guest rooms and suites, as well as The Spa, Signature Restaurant Navio, The Conservatory, and more.
For over two decades The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay has remained at the forefront of coastal luxury with best-in-class accommodations and golfing, an award-winning collection of unique dining experiences, destination-inspired spa, and signature Ritz-Carlton hospitality. The property refresh presents a new look that cements its status as an unrivaled Northern California getaway, unveiling elevated room and suite interiors, evoking a refined and natural feel that complements the resort's serene surroundings.
"We are thrilled to see our vision of ‘Redesigning Elegance' come to life this year," says Mathieu Riviere, General Manager of The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay. "In partnership with our world-renowned design partner, our iconic property will undoubtedly continue to be a beacon of splendor and style for decades to come."
Under the creative eye of award-winning hospitality design firm, Hirsch Bedner Associates(HBA), updates to the resort's guest rooms, suites, spa, and restaurants serve to elevate the definition of California coastal luxury. As The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay presents a distinct sense of place the moment you arrive on property, HBA incorporated the natural beauty of this Northern California backdrop, set against the Pacific coast, majestic redwood forest and the Santa Cruz Mountain range into the new design. The new guest rooms and suites build upon the opulence that guests have come to expect from the resort, pulling inspiration from the rugged landscape, warm firepits, and bagpipe serenades. Soft textured fabrics reminiscent of sand dunes, warm leather accents nodding to tones found on the coastal bluffs, and modern plaid accents marry seamlessly with the sophisticated elegance that the resort's coastal perch demands.
The resort's stylish and elegant signature restaurant, Navio, reveals bespoke new furnishings with sumptuous fabrics as well as redesigned table settings to accentuate its striking coastal views and refined cuisine. The restaurant's iconic ambiance, with grand wood paneling and arched vaulted ceilings, has been beautifully refreshed, and complemented by fresh flooring combining warm wood and carpeting. Navio's coastal-inspired sister restaurant, The Conservatory, also received fully refreshed furnishings that instill its quintessential California ethos with casual elegance and mid-century style. The updated space is redesigned to enhance floor-to-ceiling views of the Pacific and offer unforgettable dining experiences for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Within The Spa, guests will find an inner sense of calm with fully transformed relaxation lounges, complemented by updates to the spa's water amenities, including sauna, steam room, cold plunge, and whirlpool jacuzzi. Treatment rooms also received a refresh for added tranquility and comfort, and even the smallest of aesthetic details received attention, including soothing artwork, furnishings, and accessories. The cozy space brings new energy to the naturally healing setting of Half Moon Bay and creates an environment of lavish opulence.
Inspired by the aesthetic upgrades, The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay is reinvigorating culinary and guest experiences with pop-up partnerships with world-renowned wine and spirit brands, exclusive dinners highlighting local ingredients and coveted wines, curated in-room Ritz Kids and pet amenities, and more, perfect to set the scene for the ultimate California escape.
