European sophistication and sensibility combine to create the sumptuous 15,000-square-foot spa at The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club & Spa, Jupiter — the first residential golf development by The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company.


To convey a warm Mediterranean spirit with modern touches throughout, the company enlisted Atlanta-based interior design firm Image Design, Inc.
“We wanted the mood to be serene, comfortable and elegant, with true Ritz-Carlton style,” says Traci Davis, Image Design, Inc.’s director of design on this project.

“To capture a calming, Mediterranean tenor, we incorporated elements such as honed limestone flooring with honey onyx marble inlays, rusticated-iron light fixtures, ceiling murals and Venetian-plaster walls.” A citrus palette furthers the sunny South Florida atmosphere. “Inviting fabrics in green, coral, orange and yellow hues add to the restful environment,” Davis says.


From its beautiful design to its signature water treatments, the spa pampers its members from head to toe. Memberships are available to residents and non-residents. For information, call 561/626-8676 or visit www.rcc-jupiter.com.
