The Lounge at the Ritz Carlton, Grace Bay Beach, Turks and Caicos

Location: Grace Bay Beach

Ambiance: draws a lively crowd around the bar in varying attire - guests of the hotel that are straight off the beach and, given it is the Ritz, others dressed fairly nicely as they grab a pre or post dinner drink

Best Bet for Live Music: Tuesday through Saturday evenings from 6 to 9pm

Recent Lineup: Gordon Lightbourne (Tues), Phillippa Mayham (Wed), Dwayne Thomas (Thur), Raj the Entertainer (Fri)

Food & Drink: a selection of lovely starters and probably the best sushi on the island (menu) plus great cocktails and wine selection, albeit all at (to be expected!) ‘Ritz-ey’ prices

Happy Hour: no

Insider Tip #1: you don’t go to the Lobby Lounge expecting an old school Caribbean feel - you go as you get to look over the beautiful Ritz grounds and turquoise waters of Grace Bay in the distance - AND given its central Grace Bay location and large number of guest rooms, the Lobby Lounge bar at the Ritz consistently delivers a lively bar atmosphere especially on their live music nights

The recently built modern Lobby Lounge at the Ritz delivers on live music - with musicians five nights a week. Add in the the two nights of music at Casa Nonna on Monday & Tuesday, and the Ritz is one of the rare spots with live music every night of the week! Grab a seat and pull up around the typically active bar that draws a strong pre / post dinner crowd. And if you are hungry, stay for a bite and enjoy perhaps the best sushi on island.

“ Noori is their lobby lounge/bar area that is in the middle of the hotel. It is a perfect spot for great vibes, music and cocktails before dinner.”

“Here's a warm and overdue shout-out to Mr. Cutty at the bar who not only made great drinks but actually made our trip very memorable. His sense of humor and warm and welcoming demeanor elevated our experience to a 10! Should you choose to sit at the lounge chairs near the bar, the servers there are wonderful as well. They also have live music in the evenings which we found to be a great addition to the overall experience.”

“My fiance and I enjoyed The Lady Grace sunset cruise on Ritz’s property and decided to hang out in the lobby area after to have a drink and eat some dinner. Our server was so friendly and awesome - the entire staff was!! The view of the open-air lobby area is truly stellar. The sushi - wow! The conch fritters - WHAT!!! The date brownie - you guys get it?! You HAVE to have at least a drink in this top notch property where the local cuisine, people and hospitality really shine.”
