As one would expect from the Ritz Carlton, this Residence Club has everything. Our residence was lovely, with a view of the mountain. I can only imagine what it would look like in winter, because the ski lifts were a stone’s throw from our balcony. I could imagine all the snow and the skiers dashing down the mountain and then going back up. The Aspen Trees were just beginning to change color, and they shimmered within our view.
Upon arrival we were shown into our three bedroom residence with no worries, all of our luggage was brought up, and for a welcome celebration, we received a bottle of Moet champagne, and a gorgeous cheese tray. I wish I had photographed the cheese tray before the four of us demolished it!
I am a member of a second home owner’s club, and while all second homes are not equal, the Ritz Carlton did not disappoint. The service is top notch, one is treated as though one is a very special guest, indeed. Anything you want is a button away. (You can find residence rentals available by owners on sites such as VRBO.com. ) If you are interested in purchasing a beneficial interest, check out The Ritz Carlton Residence Club in Aspen Highlands (one can use all of the other Ritz Carlton Residence Clubs as well as the Marriott Residence Clubs.)
We all slept in this morning, enjoyed working out in the private workout room, I swam in the 86 degree heated pool, then enjoyed a hot tub. Now I’m working on deciding which spa treatment I might enjoy!
Oh yes, this is a pampered vacation! Absolute luxury.

Tam,……you’re killing me here… 🙂 Who would not want to be playing in Aspen in none other than the Ritz. I will say that I did thoroughly enjoy a fabulous martini one time in the ski lodge after a fun day of skiing. In front of their huge fire place, of course.
What a great place to be.
Have fun, enjoy, and pamper !!

I had forgotten all about the concept of “time share’. I’m happy to see that they’re still around! I LOVE this. Lucky you!!

What a fantastic looking place – inside and outside. What a restful vacation that must have been. I have been to Aspen once and I remember it as a gorgeous place – but I imagine that staying at the RItz Carlton would make it even better.

I think I could happily live there! You can never go wrong with a Ritz Carlton. Enjoy whichever spa treatment you decide on!

I love Aspen. The last time we were there we stayed at The Little Nell and it was lovely. I’m sure the Ritz Carlton was fabulous.

Looking at your post makes me realize it has been much too long since we have traveled to Aspen. Isn’t the Ritz wonderful?
