The Ritz-Carlton, Abama

The bedrooms and suites are distributed between the Citadel and Villas, all with private terraces and many with fabulous views over the gardens, golf course and ocean. The majority of the rooms are located in the Citadel, which combines ethnic and Moorish architecture with asymmetrical structures and earth coloured walls. The Villa rooms and suites are situated in a more private and secluded area of the resort nearer to the coast within a collection of two storey buildings, and have access to shared pools.

There are plenty of activities for sports enthusiasts, from an excellent tennis club and academy, padel tennis courts, complimentary state of the art gym, to a first class 18 hole golf course, beautifully landscaped with 25,000 palm trees and numerous lakes – plus magical sea views from many of the holes.

Those who wish simply to kick back and relax can choose from a wide selection of pools or the beach club in a private secluded cove. The impressive 2,500sqm Spa combines natural beauty treatments and personalised Total Wellness programmes to help you achieve your holiday goals.  The spa also has an activity room for complimentary daily group classes and supervised exercises including stretching, yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi and Qi-Gong.

The dining experience is diverse including fine dining at the M.B Restaurant (two Michelin-stars), plus Japanese, Argentinian and Italian options. With a choice of 10 restaurants, there really is something for all tastes.

For families, the resort is ideal, offering fantastic entertainment for children of all ages in Club Abami.  It’s complimentary from 10.00 – 18.00 and offers over 305 sq.m of indoor space as well as it’s own outside play area.
