Texas-Sized Calm, Ritz-Level Luxury
An Adults-Only Luxury Getaway at Castle Hot Springs, Arizona
With sprawling grounds, a golf course, and a spa worth blocking off half your itinerary for, The Ritz Carlton Las Colinas is designed to slow time in the best possible way. Whether you’re there for romance, rest, or a little bit of both, it balances the polish of The Ritz with the easygoing warmth of Texas hospitality.

Who should you bring?
This is the kind of hotel that makes any trip feel special. It’s perfect for a romantic weekend, a solo recharge or a small family getaway. Just 20 minutes from downtown Dallas, The Ritz-Carlton Las Colinas offers peaceful, scenic grounds that feel worlds away from the city. The vibe is refined without being stiff—inviting you to sink in, exhale and stay awhile.
What’s the food like?
Elevated, intentional and locally inspired. Knife Italian, the on-site restaurant from Chef John Tesar, leans into standout steaks, seasonal dishes and a serious wine list. Breakfast is a quiet triumph: think a pasture-raised egg omelette with crispy potatoes, paired with an almond milk latte that somehow manages to feel restorative. No matter the meal, the food strikes that balance of indulgence and thoughtfulness.
Did you get a good night’s sleep?
Plush beds, blackout shades, calming colors and soft lighting all conspire to make “just one more hour” feel entirely justifiable. Everything feels clean, quiet, and calibrated for rest.
What amenities are available?
There’s a serene pool with private cabanas, an 18-hole TPC golf course, and a spa featuring a cold plunge, steam sauna, and hot tub. The fitness center rivals a boutique studio with Peloton bikes, recovery equipment, and even indoor tennis courts. Scenic walking trails and multiple dining options round out the resort-style lineup.
How was the service?
From personalized notes to seamless check-in, the staff strikes that sweet spot of polished but never overbearing. Every interaction feels warm, professional and quietly attentive.
What was your favorite part?
Wide-open spaces, peaceful views and a laid-back elegance that makes you feel like the world can wait. Morning coffee on the terrace, evening fire pits and meandering walks all make time slow down in the loveliest way.
Know before you go:
Pack comfortable clothes for the spa, something a little elevated for dinner, and most importantly, leave white space on your itinerary. Doing less here is kind of the point.

Basics
Details
Two shimmering outdoor pools offer opportunities for relaxation and activity—one is a heated infinity pool with a view of Lake Garda while the other is a stand-alone pool kept at cooler temperatures to encourage laps and other exercise.
Yoga, meditation and breathwork sessions can all be add-ons. Outside of the hotel, you can take a hike or e-bike along the hills, go sailing on the lake or take an excursion on a Vespa or Fiat 500 down Torri del Benaco.
Top-notch: The service was beyond what you’d expect from a five-star hotel. From the around-the-clock concierge that can help you book those hard-to-get reservations and private tours to 24-hour laundry/drycleaning and in-room dining, the Four Seasons is known ‘round the world for their attention to detail. Expect twice-daily housekeeping, free water in-room and nightly turndown service (complete with slippers and a mat to wipe your feet placed next to the bed).
