Ponte Vedra Inn & Club

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ponte Vedra Inn & Club will always be a special place for me. It brings back memories of time spent here with my late father, making every visit meaningful and heartfelt. Returning to this resort is not just about the beautiful grounds or world-class amenities—it’s about the connection I feel each time I’m here. I am truly grateful for the sense of comfort and nostalgia this place provides, and I am already looking forward to my next stay. During my recent stay at Ponte Vedra Inn & Club, I want to recognize two outstanding team members for their excellent hospitality and service. First, Mr. Alex at the concierge desk—his sense of humor and helpful insights made my visit smoother and more enjoyable. Next, Mr. Chou, who was incredibly helpful, friendly, and all-around fantastic. It’s people like them who make this resort stand out and create such a welcoming atmosphere. Thank you again, and I look forward to returning soon!

It was my second time at the Inn since it has been renovated. I was hosting life long friends and was able pleased how the evening went. The food is fantastic. I had the table side prepared Steak Diane. Very good Service was even better. Well done.

Really cool place! The pools are all being renovated which was a bummer so I would avoid till next year! The pool at the beach club they allow you to use is not very nice. |The restaurant and bar was terrific!! Location was also great- make sure to get a room with ocean view!!

Yes, there is construction and remodeling going on. However, that did not affect our oceanfront room and the beach at all. The service was fantastic and I don't remember the last time that ALL staff members were so on top of it. Even the grounds staff said hello in passing. The spa was also fabulous. We will definitely return!

The construction has caused some disruption but, to me, only minimally. Yes, there's no pool but the sister resort a short distance away has one. And the gym and gym classes are in a less scenic location than they were before. Also, food service is different, some places are better and some worse than before construction. The ocean views are still beautiful and room prices are reduced. Staff are conscientious and welcoming. To me, it's still worth it.

Can't believe the way they treat a person holding a sign that says "God bless homeless vets" Call the cops for no reason and assume he is homeless. Trash is the first word that comes to mind. Why? He has a right to stand on a public sidewalk and do as he lives within the confines of the law! Mind your own business and run your little hotel or whatever. I wouldn't stay there and I don't think most ppl would like the way they treat people!

I would actually give them a 4.75. The service was great everyone was so attentive and personal. I had to call maintenance for a couple of issues in my room they were there within minutes and fixed the issues right away. Only point I would deduct is because the rooms are a little outdated and had some issues. I stayed in Beach house which was beautiful the back door slammed really hard though and the window fell out in my room because of it. Beautiful location great stay.

Renovations ongoing for months, ruining the summer and all the holidays. Noisy, ugly- big equipment all around and is an eyesore. Apparently this has been going on for a long time. The traffic is a mess as they are also redoing the street. NO POOL AVAILABILITY by the beach. Honestly, it is a mess. We have been here many times before and it has always been lovely. I have no idea why they are doing this renovation when they did one not that long ago.

Beautiful grounds and environment. We had family stay and they loved it. Ocean and golf facilities are top notch.

We had the pleasure of spending a short three day/two night weekend only a few miles from our home this past weekend to celebrate our anniversary and my husband's birthday. We have been guests at this resort over the years with friends who are members and always enjoy it. I have been going to the spa here for ages for my ladies spa days and it has always been a pleasure. We planned a weekend of eating, drinking, and relaxing and all of those things were accomplished. I will review all the drinking and dining venues in a separate review. There are many nice things about this resort but the service is first and foremost, the rooms are updated and comfortable, the amenities are very nice, the dining options are nice, the grounds are beautiful and you can walk almost anywhere you want to go. Check out the variety of rooms, dining options, activities and such. There are lots of activities but we chose the "relax on the beach chair" one. A nice resort! And I am very picky, so trust me. You will enjoy your visit here.

I just want put closing to my unprofessional so called "Equal Opportunity Employer's for my 2023 learning experiences. As you can see the Employee orientation sheet below .

Ponte Vedra Inn and Club 200 Ponte Vedra Blvd Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida Where do I begin? Saying why this property is one of the gems we have enjoyed? First, the overall property is beautiful, but more importantly, so are the people. I loved the "Yes We Can" attitude. Such a lovely Inn on the coast which lets you enjoy the shoreline while having a meal or a drink and or just lounging on the beach. Now the essential part of this review is the staff. I am sure I will miss someone but let me say we did not meet one person who wasn't helpful. The hard part is not mentioning someone who was helpful. I want the management to realize how fortunate they are to have all these folks on the team. Here are the Rock Stars: Alisa Hurt - National Sales Mgr. Without her, this event would have never been planned. She is such a professional, and Yvonne and I thoroughly enjoyed working with her. Rachel Tudor, Conference Manager. She was so critical in helping with the events. Making sure everything was just right for our people. Graham Eric - Front Desk Eileen Concierge Valet - Kyle, Will Golf Club Dining - Henrietta Wait Staff Emelie Todd Eileen Basel Eddy Fran Hostess- Michaela Owen Chef and Grill Master House Keeping was great, and our room always looked fresh. Again a BIG Thank you, Yvonne and Don Varney

Everything you would expect- great service, clean, professional, with delicious food and drinks. We were all pleasantly surprised by the food we ordered for lunch. Large portions and full of flavor. Also on the healthy side. Wish they served that food in a restaurant somewhere. Manicures, pedicures, massages, sauna, hot tub, pool... oh my! This place has it all. My only complaints: we had to go up to the bar to order drinks instead of them coming to us poolside. 2 waiters and a lot of ppl drinking. Other complaint- we got dropped off in the locker room when other people got a whole tour. Luckily we just followed someone and found our way.

It was unacceptable to have a room assigned with significant leaks in the ceiling and mold forming around it. This leak was still wet and pieces of the ceiling were coming down onto the bed. I would like to mention, the issue was handled quickly and professionally by the front desk, however, rooms should be inspected thoroughly before guests ever arrive.

Wow! Horrible, disgusting, dingy, dusty place. The photos speak for themselves. Dirty carpet, mold in air conditioner (that is a room aircontioner- no central AC) Mold and mildew all over bathroom including where water comes from faucet to brush teeth. Rust all over walls and rails. Giant pieces of actual building missing, dilapidated ceiling. Chunks of dust hanging off fan. Toilet seat missing pieces, splinters there. Giant 80s heat lamps. Weird black fuss inside sheets. Really gross. There is absolutely no way, not even on its best day is this more than 2 stars and that would be generous. Upon check in we drove to the building where the room is. No one helped us take the bags out of the car. I have never been to a hotel four stars or more with no bellman- but ok we proceeded. When we got to the room it was very surprising as it looked nothing like the photos on line.

We had a great time at this club. We was there for trivia and dinner and ever was great. The staff was wonderful the food was awesome. There was so many great people that attended. We took home the prize for our club. It was nice meeting others from other clubs. I'm looking forward to the next big event.

Dan and the team here are absolutely wonderful! My wife has been a member of the beach club since she was a baby. Her family has built so many wonderful connections over the years; business relationships that have lead to life-long careers and personal friendships to celebrate life's big and small moments. We took our vows in the mansion and I love running sprints out by the Marina. Stop by, say hi, watch a sunset on the back patio of the mansion. You'll see. It's special

I planned a surprise Valentines Day weekend for my husband and OH BOY was he surprised-me too. This place is amazing and I can't wait to go back. Upon arrival you have the valet to come to your car and walk you inside to registration. After you register the attendant explain all the amenities to you and offer you water, We stayed in the room that overlooked the golf course. Our room had a fire place and the bathroom was just beautiful. The spa is a little ways up the road in its own building. I can't wait to go back just to try the spa area. The food was amazing and the service impeccable. We definitely can't wait to go back.

Ponte Vedra Inn & Club is the place if you are looking for a relaxing getaway. Parking is easy and plenty in the private lot. I'm sure valet is also an option in the garage. I have only been to the gym, jacuzzi, surf club, and beach access for my visits. Gym: It's nice with the ocean view. Plenty of equipment throughout and is kept pretty clean. There is a class schedule located at the far end. Check it out! Jacuzzi: I believe it closes at 10pm. It's more of an adult only and is located right between the two pools. It's set at a good temperature, but I wish it was slightly elevated. Surf Club: Bar. The wait can be a little bad, especially when there are two bartenders and 10 people waiting to order. Patience is key. Beach Access: This is probably my favorite! I love walking on the beach and scouting for shark teeth. This area of the beach is fairly quiet due to the resort. Ponte Vedra Inn & Club is definitely a nice getaway. The crowd tends to be in the older range, but there are families who also visit. There are many things to do here such as golf, tennis, fitness, spa, dining, shop, etc. If you also want to rent items, you can rent paddle-boards, beach cruisers, and kayaks.

Great beach hotel. Room was right on the ocean across the street from the main hotel. Opened the door to a gorgeous beach view. Unfortunately immediately locked myself out. Had to run through sprinklers at 1 AM to get a new keycard Apparently this is somewhat common. Service here was top notch. Didn't matter if it was checkin, restaurant, meeting rooms, pool, everyone was top notch. Ritz Carlton type service. Food was great golf course was awesome. Super fast greens. The only reason this isn't a 5 is the room was a little dated. I would definitely return.

As a local, we enjoy the Ponte Vedra Inn and Club weekly. The catch? It's only open for members or hotel guests. The Ponte Vedra Inn and Club is a 5 Diamond private club with pristine golf, tennis, dining, beach and accommodations. We are at the outside patio bar today just having a drink and quick snack after a beautiful day of golf. (I don't actually play golf, I just ride in the cart and drink beers.) We've had everything on the menu over the years and it's all outstanding. If you are traveling and want to splurge a bit, this is THE place to be.

Enjoy the 5 Diamond experience of this luxurious resort.The resort is expansive, exquisite and it's at the beach. What more do you need? Renovations are underway to expand their family pool and it should be completed prior to mid March 2019. I highly recommend that you take a tour of the resort which takes about an hour and a half.

I'm born & raised in the area so I don't typically stay in the local resorts, but when I do decide to slip away for a weekend on the beachfront, I want them to knock my socks off. Unfortunately, Ponte Vedra Inn & Club didn't meet my expectations. Pros: the staff was courteous, the food was good, & the view was beautiful. Cons: it's extremely EXPENSIVE, & the rooms are dated. I'm not frugal by any means, but if I'm going to pay $600 a night in NE Florida I expect nothing less than beachfront perfection, and unfortunately that's just not the case here. While I enjoyed my stay, next time I'll choose the Ritz at Amelia Island or One Ocean in Jax Beach.

Excellent food, attentive customer service, sufficient gym. Shops I visited were somewhat lacking and tennis courts were usually closed, to blame on the rainy weather, not the resort. Golf Club Diner had amazing food, including delicious seafood salad, though not as many restaurants as I would've liked. Toilet was slightly broken as handle needed tweaking after each flush. Overall a pleasant stay.

I visited the Ponte Vedra Inn and Club to attend this year's Labor and Employment Law Workshop. The entire experience was phenomenal from the facility, to the food to the seminar sessions. The lunch was great and all of the associates were friendly and helpful with getting anything that you need. I actually drove my boyfriend's car that day as I was getting my car detailed. His battery died as I was preparing to leave, but thankfully, the resort security was expeditious in helping me jump the car to send me on my way. I would love the opportunity to return.

Fate gave me the opportunity to stay here because my fiance's law firm hosted a party and put us up in the Georgia House. What ensued was a weekend of luxury that is really incomparable to anything I've experienced! I spent the afternoon at the spa (see my separate review of the spa!) and got pampered. The Inn actually has a dedicated driver to pick up resort guests who need transportation, and he picked me up from the spa and took me back to my hotel room. My fiance and I enjoyed a beautiful room just steps from the beach. We loved the comfy robes supplied for us in the room, and the nice turn down service was a luxurious touch. The next morning we indulged in the luxurious breakfast buffet, complete with an omelette and pancake station manned by a breakfast artisan of sorts. Great service overall, and a luxurious treat! I hope to return!

I purchased a round of golf for 4 people on either the ocean or lagoon courses. I called to make our tee time and the process was smooth and efficient. We arrived ahead of time to check in and warm up. The young lady in the pro shop greeted me in a warm and friendly manner. She accepted my certificate and took the names of all golfers. They failed to disclose when I bought the certificate that the course would soon be closing and undergoing major renovations within 1 month. Overall the course was in decent shape but several greens were in poor condition and negatively impacted putting. Uggh! I don't feel like I got the value for what I spent for the certificate but don't expect the course to do anything much for a non member. I'll be more aware the next time I'm bidding at an auction to know the circumstances better. Overall I'm glad we played the course, anxious to see how the redesign compares to the current layout.

Attended a conference and food was always exceptional. My room was right on the beach and I could hear the waves crashing. The room had recently been renovated and smelled new. The decor and furnishings were gorgeous. My only complaint is the bed was too soft but that's a personal preference.

If you're going to stay along the coast in the Jacksonville Beach area, you might as well stay in the best place and Ponte Vedra Inn & Club is definitely it. Who doesn't want to stay right along the Atlantic ocean in an elegant, well maintained and well appointed environment? The rooms are meticulously decorated and has all of the amenities for those who are looking for a classy yet relaxing get-away. The suite we stayed in had one large king size bed with a luxurious bathroom. The location gives you complete privacy from the neighboring Jacksonville Beach community and everything you need is available in-house. Love that. Our view of the green courtyard just below our private balcony with views of the ocean not far beyond that made our stay absolutely perfect. We were literally just a few steps away from the sand and the club. And just a phone call away if we had any special requests. Huge plus. At the Club, you can get snacks and libations made to order and charge it to your room so there's no need to bring cash with you. And the frozen drinks were perfect, tasty and strong. If you want to enjoy the sand, they provide lounge chairs, towels and giant fans for your convenience. It's like having your own private beach with a very friendly staff and patrons surrounding you. The staff here is one of the best reasons to choose this resort. Excellent. Overall, we loved that we could order room service and have a beautiful meal delivered and set up right to our room. We compared some hotels a little more north and the PVI&C was a way better value for what they offer and their specific locale. And of course, the service here the entire time was top-notch and worth every penny spent. I highly recommend staying here.

Wonderful stay and worth every cent!!I came down early and stayed at a not really competitor for 2 nights with my daughter in law. I kept looking at Ponte Vedra in and club because my husband and I have decided to stay there for several days. Now I wish we had just come here in the first place. Our stay is amazing! We did upgrade but I am so grateful and so thankful that we upgraded. First of all Alison and Henry are awesome. They greeted us and saw that we were comfortable. Alex and Jennifer also are among the first people who greet and care for your stay. We have a room on the beach. The beach rentals set up chairs in front of our room. The pool and every type of dining was within a short walk. This is our spot. I have looked so many times to stay here and thought it was more than I wanted to spend. I can't compare enough to show where the truly real bargain is. We are on vacation because we work diligently.

What a beautiful resort! The Ocean view rooms are literally steps from the Atlantic. Going to sleep or waking up to the crashing waves alone makes it worth staying at Ponte Vedra. The grounds are beautiful as well. Lined with million dollar homes all around - the good life is definitely evident here. The staff is very accommodating and friendly. From check-in to housekeeping to groundskeepers to security - everyone is extremely accommodating. The staff says hello, every time you pass by. If the opportunity arose, I would definitely stay here again!

Very happy with my stay here. Rooms were a good size. Patio and view of the beach were great! There is a mini fridge in the room but being your own cooler if you want to store anything- the design barely kept anything cold. Room service was pricey but great. The burgers were delicious and they are very fast at set up and clean up. The pool area was a madhouse but they do a great job of clearing out old towels which frees up chairs. Food was ok by the pool. The kids loved the smoothie bar.

I recently had a 3 night stay at Ponte Vedra Inn & Club. It is beautifully located along the beach, with large condo style rooms including a kitchenette, living space, dining, a patio, a large bedroom and bath. 5 stars for location. Not just on the beach, but in a very nice suburb (likely the best) in Jacksonville 4 stars for service. Everyone was pleasant and accommodating. 3 stars for room cleanliness. I was greeted by an ashtray jam packed with cigarettes on my patio. I also went to get ice in the ice bucket, and it had a bag and water in it. It wasn't cleaned up from the previous guest. Made me wonder what else wasn't cleaned up that I didn't see? 4 stars for food. We had a group meeting and the breakfast and lunch were some of the best I've had at a hotel.

5 Diamond report, beautiful oceanfront rooms, clean, spacious and beautiful views of serene beach. Service was on point, resort was luxurious and they gave s spa , some nice shops and a Starbucks om property as well as good dining options. We tried the family pool and loved it as well but spent most of our days lounging by the ocean. Perfect pls e to unwind and would definitely recommend it.

We have stayed here twice. It is a beautiful hotel. Service and staff spot on. One reason I like it is that it is not a high rise. It is comprised of many buildings that are only two stories. You are steps to the beach. Easy access to your room and the Atlantic Ocean. You don't have to fool around with a lobby and elevator getting to your room. The rooms are one of the most spacious I have stayed in. I would suggest you stay on the ocean side and ocean front. If you have small kids you will want to be in a bldg. closer to the poo,l I think. They have two adult pools and two family pools with all sorts of toys for them. They offer a full sized gym with classes from spinning, body sculpting to yoga. The gym offers memberships to locals so when I say full sized gym you are most certainly getting it here. The Inn also has bike rentals and surf rentals. Tennis courts and two golf courses on site. The spa is fabulous. One con is that you have to pay a resort fee daily of $30.00. The beach chair rentals are $15.00 per day and an umbrella is $15.00. This adds up quickly. The main dining room is delicious. They prepare a variety of foods with a flare. They have a casual dining area beach side with table service. They also have a snack bar that serves hotdogs, burgers, salads, ice cream treats and smoothies, etc This resort is understated elegance. Just what I like when at the shore. It is expensive, however well worth it. I look forward to returning.

This review is from the perspective of an Inn guest, not a Club member. I stayed at the Inn for 3 nights as a guest of a guest on a business reward trip. The Inn shares the amenities that the Club members use (for an exorbitant initial fee, followed by exorbitant annual fees). With all of this revenue, you'd expect top-notch pools, towels, cabanas, etc. but that really isn't the case here. What you have is a beautiful beach, golf course, and well-maintained (yet dated) grounds and buildings. The pools could use not just re-surfacing, but total renovation or re-design. The pool towels are so small that they automatically give two, instead of one, when you walk in. One poolside drink will cost you $15.98 (that was a mojito--and not a good one--I didn't finish it.) The rooms are decorated in classic Floridian style and it is lovely, with the ocean breeze drifting in through the open door (for some reason, they've eliminated the option to open your windows, so if you want fresh air, you may have to deal with the occasional biting fly). You can sense the dichotomy of the place--timeworn and decrepit if you peek behind the curtains, but buffed and shiny on the surface.Truly, you will feel special here by the genuine greetings you will get from the doormen and most all of the employees you meet. ...But the bill at the end...ooooph!! For half of the nightly rate, you could get twice the "club" amenities, and half the snobbery. Those are the facts. The service is wonderful, and again-the grounds are lovely. The money is old, as are most of the people. See my review of one of the on-site restaurants, the Seahorse Grill. 5-star. (And just one more thing--for an ocean-side resort, why are they giving out plastic water bottles daily, and there are no recycle bins in sight? Do they have a thing against sea turtles? Maybe that's just me... Call it one more Ponte Vedra Inn contradiction.)

The Ponte Vedra Inn and Club is a slice of Paradise!! This is a fantastic Resort! Located just slightly North East of Jacksonville, FL Ponte Vedra Inn and Club is a 5 Diamond rated Beachfront Resort with everything you can imagine. To start where do you want your room? You have the choice of staying at the Inn proper or across the street at the Beachfront Houses which are two story with a mix of Suites and King or 2 Queen Bed Rooms. We stayed in the Georgia House on the 1st floor so we could walk right out back of our room onto the Beach. The Customer Service here is Top Notch! The employees are very personable, courteous, and will go the extra mile for any Guest. The food on this property is incredible whether it is at the Inn Dining Room, the Surf Deck Grille, or the Seahorse Grille you will not be disappointed at all. They are loaded with activities: full gym, world class Tennis Courts, 2 gorgeous 18 Hole Golf Courses, and 4 Pools. Now the flagship is the 30,000 Sq Ft Ponte Vedra Inn and Club Spa!! This Spa is incredible and when you have a service you get access all day to the Spa amenities!! Oh that includes the Adult only Couples Pool with its own full service Bar!! That isn't the end though, this Spa has it's own Kitchen and eating area! Why would you ever want to leave this Paradise, it is truly Amazing!! Thank you to Sara Buzzannco the Senior Sales Manager and Laura Capobianco Associate Director of Conference Services for making our stay memorable!!

The star is for the ocean and beach, which were magnificent!! However, I don't think the staff at the Club had anything to do with that part of our stay. The place was WAY over priced for a small hotel room. There was so much wrong with it that I kind of felt bad for the people who work there, but especially to those who come and stay. The room was filthy. My sisters NEVER complain but upon looking around the room we all saw so much dust on fans and pictures, broken door handles, drippy faucets (every 7 seconds) and a toilet that had to be pampered. It made gurgle noises every 30-45 minutes. All that cannot be due to COVID!!! Do not stay here.

Beautiful resort ,excellent beach ,tennis, and golf but it is clearly understaffed.There is no lifeguard at the 2 main adult pools and although the whirlpool is supposed to be for adults only,it was filled with kids and there was no staff present to tell them to leave.The patio umbrellas are worn out ,shredded, and very hard to pin open.The internet is so-so,not nearly as strong an internet signal as you would expect at an expensive 5 star resort.

Such a beautiful, relaxing getaway with the most delicious food. Love the campus feel and the staff can't do enough to help you. Our favorite.

The facility is very nice. Clean. The rooms are well appointed. The pullout bed was uncomfortable, so we used the mattress on the floor and it was fine. They give you nice shells and chocolate every night. The staff is super friendly. The breakfast was good but on the pricey side and slow. The oasis lunch was great, though I found the fish sandwich to small for the $$. But the veggie burger and fish tacos were good. The beach is right there and you can access their pools. Our only real issue, was lack of kid activities (for Elementary aged school kids).

***Ponte Vedra Inn & Club is a big resort and it is a good option for an exclusive beach going experience*** Ponte Vedra Beach is a nice beach near Jacksonville and this resort and club takes up a large part of it. Rooms are right on the ocean and some rooms even allow guests to exit their back door and immediately touch sand. While the beach is open to the public, the resort takes up a large part of the beach and does not really provide many great parking options for non-resort guests so this beach is fairly quiet and not too busy. The beach is a big draw given how big it is as well as how nice and smooth the sand is here. While there is not much activity at this resort, there are several options near the water for renting equipment or getting some food or a drink from the resort (you have to be a guest at the resort to use any of this resort's dining or rental facilities). The rooms are nice here. They are very spacious and comfortable and feature lots of pleasant as well as convenient amenities like a kitchen sink, microwave, in-room safe, turndown service, multiple bathroom sinks, and a balcony (at least in some rooms). There were a few negatives though. I felt the A/C unit was cool enough for the time I was there, but I wonder how well it would do during a brutal Florida summer. In addition, the A/C was quite loud. The shower also did not have a curved rod so the shower curtain took up too much space in the bathtub. The resort itself looks nice with the golf course, the lagoon, the lots of greens, and the ocean all conveniently located here. The majority of the buildings are not that beautiful though. Most of the guest room buildings have a fairly square and boring design (they are quite big too). Still, there are parts of this hotel like the main building that are very nice (the main building features a much more historical and unique exterior). The resort's size also takes away some of the charm here. It also means a lot of walking, which can be a plus or negative depending on your perspective; complimentary shuttles via extended golf carts are available. Service is exceptional and the staff is very friendly and always ready to help out. I do not stay on the beach that often, but the room rates felt reasonable especially if you visit during non-peak times. Ponte Vedra Inn & Club is best for a quiet beach and golf stay. If you are looking for fun non-water things to do or good dining options, I am not sure what is available in the nearby area. But if you are looking for a more relaxing beach getaway, Ponte Vedra Inn & Club is a good option in Florida. I believe self and/or valet parking is offered here though I am not sure what the parking rates are.

If you are trying to get away from the everyday stress and hassle, I recommend the spa at Ponte Vedra. As you walk in, you are surrounded by luxury and a relaxing atmosphere. The spa store will be to your right as they carry their famous perfumed scents, cosmetics, and the latest beauty products. The assistants are very kind with excellent customer service. You can get a massage treatment or use the amenities by itself. The double doors will guide you through a hallway of candles with orchids and walls of water streaming through. As your guide leads you you will find a resting room. Convenient beautiful locker rooms, nice indoor jacuzzi, spacious steam room, sauna, bathrooms and showers and even a convenient press on dryer for your wet clothes. There is also a doorway that leads you to the outdoor patio with cushioned benches all around surrounded by beautiful greenery and a heated pool with a little waterfall that flows through it. They have waiters and waitresses catering to your every need. The massages are super relaxing, they let you sample different scent oils and use the 2 you favor. Basically you"ll be in paradise!

Took a short vacation with my parents here. I booked via expedia and get a good discount. I was however made to pay an extra $30 resort fee per day at the hotel which i had no idea would happen when i booked through expedia. We stayed in the room overlooking the golf course, island view i believe, it was great room okay view. What was better was the hot tub just for the building we were in and the fire pit. One of our sheets in our bedroom was dirty when we first got in it looked like lizard poop when we called the house keeping came looked at it and blamed me for it saying it was just a bread crumb that i dropped there. She refused to change the sheets. The thing is that i am from a tropical island i know exactly what lizard poop looks like and it was lizard poop. Not a good thing for a 5 star hotel. I also wish the welcome at check in was warmer. I felt the front desk was very cold here is your key go figure out where it is and move in yourself. But we had a good time.

The service is top notch!! Top Notch I said. If you stay here, the gym is available. It overlooks the ocean, has everything you need and more, locker room is massive. World class gym. The Surf Club pool, hot tub, lap pool, bars, restaurant are all excellent. The golf is a little pricey based on the amazing condition, so well deserved there. I just hit some range balls and that was good enough for this trip. This a place you should look at. I love it here. Will come back again. Oh yeah, the rooms in the Island building were very nice. Gorgeous rooms.

My husband and I returned for another peaceful weekend, and the Ponte Vedra Inn and Club never disappoints! The rooms are beautiful and service is excellent. Even with a "partial view room", one side faces the ocean and you walk into the sand within a few steps. The beds are the most comfortable I've ever had in a hotel...(makes you want to sleep in and order room service, if it wasn't for the beautiful sunrise that would be missed. The spa devices are second to none. Great packages for a "girl's weekend" too! Location is convenient! Local to major highways to explore Jacksonville...(we came to watch the Dolphins play the Jags. GO DOLPHINS! Whenever you come, you will wish you could stay longer! Always a reason to come back!

Really nice location on the beach/ocean. My room door literally opened up to the beach! My room itself is dated but was spacious, clean and well-kept. Pool area is small, and pool is not much to speak of. Large exercise room overlooking the ocean. Food options are limited but high quality. Best thing: Fried belly clams at the pool bar. Score!

We love it here. It is charming, seaside and luxurious. We enjoyed every minute here whether at the beach, the pool or dining. I highly recommend!

one of my favorite places in the Sunshine state. Great service, accommodations, fitness center and the Tavern is a cool spot

This review is for the place to get coffee and muffins. The older lady there with glasses who has been for years is the rudest person I have ever dealt with at a resort. She's sarcastic and makes me not want to go back. If you ask a simple question...she can't just answer it without a sarcastic tone. You need to find someone who can welcome guests in and be willing to answer questions. PVB is one of our favorite places. Somewhat dated in places but still one of our places. I wish this part of the club would change.

We stayed in the Georgia House, which sits directly across from the main lobby, right on the ocean. The view from the room is amazing. The room itself is a nice size and well maintained. I found all of the staff to be very friendly and polite. The only downside is the price. A breakfast buffet for 4 will set you back $86. A piña colada poolside is $10. A cup of coffee is $4.25. But with A1A only minutes away you could leave the resort for a meal or two to save a few bucks. We stayed Labor Day weekend, which I expected to be busy, but it was pretty quiet. Nice family atmosphere. If it's within your budget and you're looking for a nice Inn right on the beach, I highly recommend the Ponte Vedra Inn and Club.

Thank you to the entire staff at Ponte Vedra Inn and Club. A true inspiration of southern hospitality. I would recommend this resort. I have had the privilege of traveling frequently and if you are looking for a top shelf experience this is definitely the place especially the housekeeping department run by Teyre Adams. Keep up the great work can't wait to visit again.

One of my favorite places on earth. 5 star service every step of the way. The private beach is my favorite part of this property. Room service is always amazing! I could seriously move into this place if they'd let me!

I recently stopped into the Ponte Vedra Inn Surf shop. This review is solely on the surf shop. I was blown away by the outstanding customer service I received that day. The minute I walked In I was instantly greeted by the sweetest women whom I'm pretty sure is named Betsy. I think I looked a bit frazzled. It was last minute and I needed to find the perfect gift. Thank god for her. She was such a huge help in making my decision. I Described the person and bam! It's like she knew exactly what I needed! Not only did I find her customer service impeccable, but I found her to be really sweet. I hope to return with my next gift crisis and have her help me handle it. There will be more birthdays in my future!

So I don't know how many of you have been to the Jacksonville in July, but let me preface this review by saying it's hotter than Satan's jock strap and wetter than those crazy old ladies who are obsessed with Gerard Butler in Phantom of the Opera. Like I have been to the gates of hell, and it has a cool refreshing breeze compared to St. John's county in July. As I have mentioned previously, for those KT review zealots, my family is from Jacksonville. Unfortunately I had to go back to JAX, during the fourth of July week the circumstances are sad and ultimately related to this review. We decided to stay a few extra days at Ponte Vedra, which is a Southern institution. It is like Mad Men, where women are inferior, people drink a lot, but also add some golf carts. So MANY members of my family were there. When I say many, I mean many (my father is one of ELEVEN), and they all had kids and then they all had kids (well, not me, I am an old spinster). Because we were all there, it could get confusing because given we are all members of the same family, some of us have the same last name. Let's begin with my check-in: KT: Hi. Receptionist Dippy: Hi. What brings you to Ponte Veeeedra? KT: My grandmother's funeral. Receptionist: Oh I am so glad to hear that. Welcome. KT: Did you hear what I said? Receptionist: Oh, sorry, it has been a looooong day. Everything was all well and good until the day of my grandmother's funeral. As aforementioned it was hotter than the balls of Hitler in a sauna in hell fire, and I still, went to the gym, to blow off some sadness and steam. I walked back in the sweltering heat and wiped the salty mixture of ocean, tears and sweat off my brow, when I realized I had been locked out of my room. WTF?! So long story long, I barely made it to the front desk as I was severely red and dehydrated, and they had checked me out, confusing me with a family member. Kinda honest mistake except that they confused me with my brother who is 6'8 and dark and I am a WOMAN and very fair. So even though it was clearly their mistake, they wanted me to move rooms in the hellfire. Sorry, hommie don't play that. Obviously, dippy receptionist made a mistake in checking all 27 of us in. After a fight to the death with the manager, I got to stay in the room that they locked me out of. With that said, they have a very nice spa, nice ammenties and a good spa.

Ponte Vedra Inn & Club will catapult you to a time when the women lunched while the men golfed. Well, that still happens. I almost hate to say it this way, but it's very "old money" and I mean that in the best way possible! The Inn & Club is definitely a destination - and institution - of the beaches. Many moons ago I was a member of the summer swim team so I spent many afternoons at the pool on the north end of the club. I've had dinner in the Seafoam Room. I've performed in the lobby of the main building with the local church choir at Christmas. I've hung out with relatives that were staying there & had lunch in the deck that opens up to the beach. I've worked out in the gym, running on the treadmill while staring at the ocean. I think I've done a little bit of everything except actually play golf. I know several people that have had weddings here & all of them are amazing affairs. The Club really pulls out all the stops for a matrimonial fete. When I think of 'old school' country/beach club, PV Club is the picture that comes to mind. I don't plan to join a country club in my lifetime, but if I did, this would be it.

PVIC was built in 1928 and is stuck in 1958. My wife and I felt like we were in an episode of Mad Men - and not in a good way. The AAA five diamond plaque is displayed in the middle of the reception room in a tacky display case. Not sure what the requirements for five diamonds but the service here is very uneven, such as the woman at the front desk who when I asked her where we might get lunch when we arrived from the airport hungry and tired at 3pm suggested that we walk over to the beach club restaurant a half mile down the path in blazing unshaded heat -- without mentioning that after 230pm their menu is limited exclusively to hot dogs... The beach is nice and dolphins were playing only a few hundred feet from the shore. The food is mediocre and the rooms are nothing special. Not a terrible place but it's from a different era and so are most of the guests.
