The Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel

Dana Point - UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Since opening in 1962, The Ocean Club has been a playground for celebrities and discerning travellers set along an 8-kilometre (5-mile) stretch of natural, white-sand beach on Paradise Island.

Connect with Bahamian beauty in an enclave of remarkable seclusion, where intimate low-rise buildings are immersed in 14 hectares (35 acres) of Versailles-inspired lawns and gardens. Wake up to breakfast on your private balcony, then indulge in a restorative treatment in one of the Balinese-style spa villas or head out for a round of golf at Ocean Club Golf Course.
