Description of Ritz-Carlton Club® 2-BR Residences
Sumptuous luxury and world-class Ritz-Carlton service beckon you! Right on one of St. Thomas's best white sand beaches, these deluxe Residences offer two-bedroom suites, each with a fully-equipped gourmet kitchen with granite counters, central air-conditioning throughout, marble and granite bathrooms with soaking tubs, down pillows and comforters, washer and dryer, and beautifully-executed plush interiors with inviting areas for rest and relaxation.
As a guest at The Ritz-Carlton Club®, you'll receive full access to all Hotel amenities of the adjoining Ritz-Carlton Hotel, including the fitness facility, the full-service spa and salon, lighted tennis courts, and three restaurants. Optional daily-fee watersports, sailing and diving are all on site for your convenience. Use of the Ritz-Carlton Club®'s reception lounge, complete with computer and printer stations, a complete library of DVD movies, books and games, and a fully-staffed concierge department to arrange any additional services you might require, such as your own private chef to prepare a gourmet meal in your Residence, massage, babysitting, daily activities and watersports, spa treatments, restaurant reservations, or limos and taxis as you may desire. The Ritz-Carlton's legendary service will greatly enhance the magic of your St. Thomas holiday.
From the covered balcony of your Residence you'll enjoy a private bird's-eye view of the pools, swaying palms and the sound of the surf rolling along the beach below, but once you close your verandah doors, you are in your own hushed and secluded world. Steps from your Residence you'll find a large beachfront swimming pool, an adult's serenity pool (both heated), a children's wading pool, and two whirlpool spas, all surrounded by tropical palms, manicured landscaping and soothing sounds of the water lapping on the seashore. Coconut Cove Bar + Grill, the Club's convivial beachside restaurant and bar, is tucked conveniently next to the Resort buildings and largest pool.
A short seaside walkway leads to the adjoining Hotel's pool, excellent restaurants and occasional evening entertainment.
Every facet of The Ritz-Carlton Club® experience is offered, providing regal comforts within a casually-elegant setting - exclusive, with all the privileges of a renowned private Club. This is truly paradise found, with privacy and quality time for you and your family or friends within an intimate home-like ambience, accompanied by excellent service and world-class resort amenities.
Let the Caribbean tradewinds embrace you while your every need is catered to in The Ritz-Carlton tradition, all on a beautiful island which boasts fabulous duty-free shopping, excellent restaurants, and picture-perfect beaches and cays to explore, surrounded by some of the world's most crystalline waters. Five-star accommodations, right on the beach. Very highly recommended!

Rental Notes
SATURDAY-TO-SATURDAY RENTALS, PLEASE! A 7-NIGHT MINIMUM RENTAL PERIOD IS REQUIRED AT THE RITZ-CARLTON CLUB® RESIDENCES.
Please note that these luxury Residences are privately owned, and that The Ritz-Carlton Club® is not operated like a hotel or resort. For this reason, early check-ins or late check-outs are NOT available. The RCC staff will be happy to accommodate you if they are able, but due to very high owner occupancy, you will be expected to check out promptly at 11 a.m. And when arriving, check-in time is at 4 p.m., no earlier. We thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
*You may REQUEST a particular building, floor or a specific Residence at The Ritz-Carlton Club® for your stay, but please understand that McLaughlin Anderson Luxury Villas has no control over nor any final say as to which specific Residence The Ritz-Carlton Club staff will select for you.*
A $25 fee will be due upon your departure from the resort beginning January 1, 2018
TRANSFERS: Upon arrival on St. Thomas, all guests who have booked their Residence at The Ritz-Carlton Club® directly with McLaughlin Anderson Luxury Villas (i.e., not using a commissionable agent) will be met by a private driver + van and driven to The Ritz-Carlton Club®. This complimentary one-way transfer is included for all direct guests who pay full rackrate for a week's rental. Only one transfer is included with each rental; if your group will have more than one arrival time, you are then responsible for the cost of any additional transportation to The Club. If your travel agent is booking your rental for you, and you wish to rent a car, hire a taxi, limo, or a private van + driver at your own expense, kindly contact us or your agent, in advance, to arrange these services. Upon arrival at The Ritz-Carlton Club®, you will check in at the Reception Building on the property.
ALL RITZ-CARLTON CLUB® RESIDENCES ARE NON-SMOKING VILLAS. A $250 penalty, strictly enforced, will be charged to guests who smoke inside any Residences.
AN OPTIONAL RESORT FEE for ACTIVITIES is available to you at check-in: $58 per day, $174 for any 3 days, $265 for any 5 days, or $336 per week (7 days), PER RESIDENCE (NOT per person). This Fee includes use of ALL the Resort's non-motorized sports equipment, including Hobie Waves (teenagers + adults), Junior Sailing Optis (ages 7-14 years), snorkel gear, windsurfers, kayaks, paddle boats, paddleboards, sand volleyball games, Water Weights fitness gear, pool floats and children's beach toys. The Optional Resort Fee is a great value for our guests at The Ritz-Carlton Club® Residences because it covers EVERYONE staying in your Residence (however if one family is staying in two separate Residences, you will be charged one Resort Fee for each Residence.) You may opt to pay the Resort Fee for a single day, multiple days or a full week at check-in, and when you visit the Resort's Aquatic Center, the staff will verify your payment and have you sign a liability waiver. You will have unlimited use of the equipment, but when the Resort is very busy, the staff will ask that you use the equipment in 30-minute increments. The staff also reserves the right to limit equipment rental based on weather conditions and safety practices. The Fee does NOT include lessons (please visit www.islandsol.net for a complete list of lessons and prices.)
One Fitness class per day for one person per Residence, is also included with payment of the Resort fee. Additional guests may attend for $20 per class. Your other option for activities is to pay by the hour, per person - the rates for these are as follows:

SCUBA DIVING: Guided scuba dives and snorkeling excursions depart daily from the Resort's on-property full-PADI Dive Center, where beginners, intermediate and advanced divers will find different dive trips which meet their particular levels of experience.
