Request one of the "27 series" rooms, which are junior suites that are larger and have the best views.

"With a waterfront location on a harbor, not the beach, there's little reason to stay here unless you're boating or have a business meeting at the hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Overlooking the world’s largest custom-built pleasure boat harbor, the Ritz-Carlton offers European elegance and deluxe creature comforts."
Travel + Leisure "Set on the waterfront of a small-craft marina, the Ritz-Carlton is one of the more traditional hotel spaces in Los Angeles." Full review
Time Out "Marina del Rey's best hotel is every bit as smart as you'd hope a Ritz-Carlton to be. The rooms are traditional without being stuffy; many have views over the marina." Full review
Star Service "The hotel has a beautiful blend of sleek contemporary and subdued traditional decor fused together with tasteful nautical accents." Full review
Gayot "When travelers hear the word "Ritz-Carlton," no matter where they are in the world, they know they can expect understated sophistication and excellent service."
