Ponte Vedra Inn & Club (PVIC) rolled out new rooms, suites, and other upgrades while dealing with the pandemic's challenges. PVIC Resort added 41 rooms and suites and refurbishes golf course as part of a $26 million+ project.
"This was a well-thought-out part of a master plan," said Craig Schoninger, director of sales and marketing for the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club.
"What does the future look like for the property based on our guests and membership's needs? All the while protecting our legacy and history while retaining our relevance and being modern."
Rooms are 500 square feet, and two-bedroom suites with ocean views and complete kitchens are 1,000 square feet. The two-bedroom suite costs $1,300 a night in season (March 1-Oct. 31) and $1,100 the rest of the year. The inn's original rooms also were refurbished when the resort shut down in the spring.
The resort's Ocean golf course shut down for a year for an $8 million renovation. New sod planted, and an average of 3 feet has lowered the greens. The lowering of the greens allows for different playing strategies, said Jim Howard, director of golf.
