You should read the reviews for St Regis if you haven't already. We stopped by earlier this year and there are no palapas on the beach, chairs are not padded and packed in super tight. Apparently pools are not heated and music from the Riu next door is a nuissance. Even though the Ritz is older, it would be a better choice.

Same here - we are a vegetarian group of 7
