Hi Joysun, that is correct! They have a two bedroom villa on land and over the water. They look the exact same in terms of shape and size. The overwater version is about halfway down the jetty (you can see it on Google maps if you turn on satellite mode). The only room type that is not available in both beach and overwater format is the estate. That is a land structure next to the jetty
Hey! So the main difference is ocean water villas are actually connected to the mainland. We had one of those and we loved it. They have a private jetty to get to your room and they’re close to the shore. The lagoon villas are out on the big circular jetty you see in the photos. They are great but a much farther walk! So if you would rather be close to the main areas, I recommend the ocean villas. I hope this helps!
Firstly you need to know what is "lagoon". Most of Maldives islands have lagoon, that is the shallow body of water protected from a larger body of water (usually the ocean) by sandbars, barrier islands, or coral reefs. Water level in the lagoon normally not high and you can walk, stand. Right after the lagoon is ocean, very deep water area. So lagoon-view water villa is the water villa near the resort island, view to the island, lagoon or other water villas. Ocean view water villa is the water villa normally far from the resort island, view to ocean only, nothing in front of your view.
Hello, while you have a correct understanding of what ocean versus lagoon is, it’s actually not true at the ritz. The Ocean villas are attached to the mainland. The Lagoon villas are out on the circular jetty :). They are both technically in a lagoon. You’ll find different hotels call the room types different names mainly for branding reasons. Hope this helps!
@@anletravelyea…all the villas face the same view, which is the lagoon and then the edge of the reef and then the ocean. They’re the exact same view. The only difference is the lagoon is over deeper water versus the ocean Villa.
Fabolous review!!
Thank you so much! ❤️
Hi. Thanku so much for this informative video on Ritz Carlton. Can you please tell me the difference between lagoona and ocean villa?
Hi there! Thanks for your comment

Super ❤️
Thanks Azad!
i had a small doubt, What is the difference between an ocean view water villa and a lagoon-view water villa? and is one of them better than the other?

@@VoyagerGuru yep true dear, actually he is asking about the direction (view of the villa^^).

Can’t afford
Hi there! Yes, the Ritz is quite expensive but they do sometimes have great points deals!
@@VoyagerGuru is this Marriott points ?
What is the best point deal you have seen if u don’t mind me asking?
yes you can use Marriott points, but it's dynamic (95,000 to 120,000/night)
