Marriott Bonvoy's ultimate luxury tier, Ritz-Carlton Reserve, distinguishes itself by intimate, low-room-count properties in exceptional settings. Each Reserve hotel is meticulously designed to reflect and integrate with its unique surroundings.
The collection, consisting of only eight properties globally, gained its latest addition with the opening of Nekajui, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve in Costa Rica's Peninsula Papagayo in April 2025. This expansion prompted Robb Report — Travel contributor Jake Emen to undertake an ambitious project: visiting every single Ritz-Carlton Reserve worldwide.
According to Robb Report — Travel, Marriott Bonvoy representatives confirmed that no individual, whether a brand enthusiast or corporate insider, had previously managed to visit all eight Reserves. Emen's rigorous itinerary spanned Bali, Thailand, Japan, China, Saudi Arabia, Puerto Rico, Mexico, and Costa Rica, culminating in an unprecedented achievement detailed by Robb Report — Travel.
Our take: The Ritz-Carlton Reserve concept successfully delivers on its promise of ultra-exclusive, experience-driven luxury. The emphasis on localized design and a high staff-to-guest ratio positions these properties as a distinct offering, set apart from the broader Marriott portfolio, for those seeking bespoke travel experiences rather than mere accommodation.
