I made my assumption based on the fact that on the hotel website the Lagoon Pool Villa states that it has sunset views (https://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/hotel...s/rooms-suites) and when you click into the room to see a full description it again says "spectacular sunset views" (https://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/hotel...oon-pool-villa). The article you linked that states that all lagoon villas are on the sunrise side is directly contradicting this and I would rather say that the hotel website is correct because if someone is booking Lagoon villa and is expecting a sunset view they will be non too pleased to get a sunrise view instead.

I also assumed that lagoon view meant the villas facing "Lagoon Quay" which on the map in your previous post was printed on the same side as the sunset beaches thus further giving veracity that those were the lagoon/sunset villas as they are the only ones facing the lagoon + sunset that are not beach villas.

I might be wrong and hopefully we can have someone that will actually be on site very soon to clarify where all the villa types are located and what views they have.
