Ponte Vedra Inn & Club


The historic Ponte Vedra Inn & Club stretches along the Atlantic coastline in the tony seaside village of Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. Since its celebrated opening in 1928, this AAA Five Diamond Award–winning landmark resort has entertained three generations of guests with sophisticated charm and hospitality.

Graceful palms and rolling dunes serve as a dramatic backdrop for the 250 rooms and suites, most with Atlantic Ocean views. Interiors create an atmosphere of sheer indulgence through the use of exquisite furnishings, rich fabrics, and classic details.

A freestanding Resort Conference Center holds 17,000 square feet of flexible function space (17 rooms), and serves groups of 10 to 450 people. Highlights include two ballrooms, a cherry-paneled boardroom, vaulted ceilings, exquisite chandeliers, marble floors, and a professional support staff. Attendees especially appreciate the flex-back conference chairs for maximum meeting comfort. Annual accolades such as the Gold Key and Pinnacle Awards attest to the resort’s favored status among meeting planners.

Between sessions, delegates make the most of the resort’s year-round sunny climate. Sports enthusiasts may opt to play golf or tennis, work out at the gym, swim in the pools, body surf in the ocean, or take long walks along the sandy beach. A retail promenade delights shopping enthusiasts with gift shops and boutiques. Meanwhile, a luxurious spa—the area’s largest—features a selection of 100 pampering services. Mealtimes provide yet another highlight. Four restaurants ranging from casual to elegant cater to a variety of tastes and moods in distinctive and imaginative locations.

Our experience at Ponte Vedra is one that my participants still talk about. The staff is excellent, the setting is perfect, and the meeting space was inspiring. I still crave the chili spiced chocolates that were placed on our pillows every night. I recommend this property without reservation.

The Ponte Vedra Inn & Club Receives Florida Green Lodging Program Designation
Posted Nov 21, 2008 by Elite News Team
June 17, 2008

PONTE VEDRA BEACH " The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) today welcomed the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club to the Florida Green Lodging Program. The property is the 183rd in the state to become a designated member of the program. The voluntary state initiative provides the lodging industry with technical assistance, encouraging hotels and motels to adopt cost-saving green practices that reduce waste and conserve natural resources.

With almost 50 percent of Floridas visitors staying in hotels, the lodging industry can play an important role in protecting our environment, said DEP Northeast District Green Lodging Program Coordinator, Sheena Chin. By reducing water use, conserving energy, improving air quality and decreasing solid waste, hotel guests contribute to the states efforts to protect, restore and conserve Floridas natural resources.

To become a designated member of the Florida Green Lodging Program, hotels must implement a variety of green practices. These practices include, but are not limited to, water conservation measures through low flow plumbing fixtures, a linen reuse program, energy efficiency achieved by installing ENERGY STAR appliances and programmable thermostats. The waste reduction criteria are met by providing the opportunity to recycle, purchasing items in bulk, purchasing recycled materials and by recycling ink and toner cartridges. All designated properties must also use green cleaners and high efficiency air filters.

According to Dale Haney, Vice President and General Manager of the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club, Our entire staff of 750 employees has enthusiastically participated in taking the necessary actions to be environmentally responsible and safeguard Floridas precious natural resources.

Recently, Governor Crist announced the 2008 Serve to Preserve Florida Summit on Global Climate Change this month, building on the foundation for Floridas energy future that began at last years summit. During the 2007 summit, Governor Crist signed three executive orders initiating state energy-use policies, including one that requires state agencies and departments to hold meetings and conferences only at hotels with Florida Green Lodging Program designation as of January 1, 2008, whenever possible. This years summit will explore technologies and strategies to stimulate economic development in clean technologies as well as green Floridas business community.

Launched in March 2004, the Florida Green Lodging Program establishes environmental guidelines for hotels and motels to conserve natural resources and prevent pollution. As a reward for designation, the state is recommending designated properties in the Florida Green Lodging Program to companies and trade organizations seeking environmentally conscious lodging and convention facilities. With the addition of the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club, the program has 198 designated properties and more than 365 applicants. For more information about the Florida Green Lodging Program, visit www.dep.state.fl.us/greenlodging.

DEPs Office of Sustainable Initiatives is comprised of three voluntary, non-regulatory programs that assist Florida industry and citizens in protecting the environment. The Clean Marina Program, the Florida Green Lodging Program and the Florida Pollution Prevention Program offer a variety of services including on-site assessments, consultations, speakers and workshops, all at no cost to citizens or organizations. The goal of the Sustainable Initiatives programs is to meet the needs of the present population without compromising resources for future generations.
