Staying at the Ritz Carlton - Dove Mountain, AZ for a long weekend. Before coming, I called and asked what the COVID restrictions were, I was given vague information and once I arrived realized that the restrictions were more stringent than described, and the only restaurant open for dinner service on hotel property is a mile away, near the golf course. When asking the hotel how we are supposed to get there for dinner, they told us that we would have to walk as they are understaffed....

Next time don’t settle for vague information. Especially as it relates to functioning in the pandemic world, specificity is important

Who cares, there’s bigger problems than your mile walk... on a resort... to sit down and have people serve you....

But is that the point?

OP called ahead to find out the restrictions- I feel like one mile walk for dinner shouldve been mentioned

If they didn't tell you about the mile long walk for every meal, before arrival, that's a significant lapse. I'd ask for points. It's a fancy hotel not a goddamn trailer park.

We were there last week as well. Everything was on their website and there were a couple of options for onsite dining (Ignite + turqueria) and you could easily get to the burger place via car. Seems like this one is on you my friend

And not operating their shuttle at this time. Is it just me or is it insane for them to expect us to walk a mile to/from dinner on the road (no sidewalks) and can’t take us in a golf cart because they don’t have the “headcount”. Thinking of asking for points in return for this annoying as fuck inconvenience. Any advice? How many points?
