Like a fancy drink in an elegant setting?
This is a dumb question, but do you like a fancy drink in an elegant setting with a fabulous ocean view?
Have you ever wanted to go to Pebble Beach, but it’s too far away for a quick getaway? The Lobby Bar at the Ritz Carlton Amelia Island has a similar feel with its expansive lawn and ocean views. It’s just the Atlantic instead of the Pacific.
Then, you should stop for a special cocktail at The Lobby Bar at the Ritz Carlton Amelia Island. It's elegant and timeless and offers stunning views of the ocean.
When you arrive, pull up and tell the valet you are going to the Lobby Bar. You can leave your car there for a short period.
Gorgeous chandeliers and comfy spaces
When you walk in the lobby, you first notice a sparkly oversized chandelier dripping with crystals.
And you know I love anything sparkly!
When we were there, The Lobby Bar at the Ritz was decorated beautifully for the holidays, and they also hold several Christmas events there, including a holiday breakfast with Santa.
The drinks aren't cheap, but would you expect them to be at the Ritz?
The Lobby Bar at the Ritz offers a new creative drink menu each season and the classic standbys. Sometimes, they have live music, but either way, it always has a nice crowd and an upbeat vibe. The atmosphere is upscale but also welcoming and comfortable.
Our family likes to play a friendly game of gin-rummy while enjoying the beautiful setting.
Enjoy the quieter sitting area with a seat next to the fireplace. It’s decorated in shades of blush and a subtle coastal décor. Or walk outside and enjoy a fire pit and a view of the ocean. It’s lovely, even on a rainy day. This is the area that reminds me of Pebble Beach.
As you walk back in the lobby, there is a gorgeous bar with super-thick, beautiful countertops, comfy barstools, and seating on three sides. The Lobby Bar at the Ritz is bustling at times, but the atmosphere is festive! Grab a cocktail at the bar or get table service at one of the cozy conversational clusters.
The snacks at the Lobby Bar at the Ritz are salty and delicious.
Who doesn't like a 'free' snack with a cocktail or a glass of wine?
The Lobby Bar at the Ritz stopped serving cocktail snacks in the bar for a while, but they are back, and it's a nice touch. Having something to snack on when having a drink is always a good idea. The olives and salty snacks do the trick.
A glass of champagne and a view of palm trees? Doesn’t it sound like a perfect day?
