The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe has emerged from a two-year, property-wide transformation. Originally built in 2006, the resort has served as a haven for skiers, snowboarders and outdoor explorers. The renovation, led by Premier Design and Johnson Studios, included an extensive redesign of the Living Room, now called the Living Room Lodge, dining room and bar, refreshed guestrooms and suites, a new arrival experience with an upgrade to the welcome and registration areas, a renovated fitness center, new pool cabanas, the redesigned signature restaurant Manzanita, two new Topgolf Swing Suites, the new Alpine Market offering snacks, beverages and boutique items, and redesigned meeting spaces.
The 170 upgraded rooms and suites have windows that frame the forest, valley and slopeside of the mountain. In addition, the property offers Ritz-Carlton Residences with two-, three- and four-bedroom accommodations equipped with full kitchens, living room, separate bedrooms, fireplaces, outdoor decks and more.
The newly renovated slopeside dining destination, Manzanita, now has exposed stone walls balanced with large wooden beams across the ceiling, a large stone fireplace in the center of the restaurant, and an oval bar. The restaurant’s menu highlights organic, locally grown produce. The refreshed Living Room Lodge now offers plush furnishings, a large fireplace in the center of the room and views of the surrounding forest. The main addition is the U-shaped bar with a marble top and leather seating facing floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the mountain terrain. The seasonally rotating menu at the Living Room Lodge pays tribute to Northern California’s bounty, from freshly caught trout to hand-picked mushrooms. The beverage menu features selections from the nearby wine county and brews from local and regional distilleries in California, Oregon and Utah.
In addition, The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe recently launched two Topgolf Swing Suites with a private sports entertainment simulator for golf, baseball, soccer, dodgeball and more. The suites have a massive HDTV screen and equipment for the desired sport, a personal guest experience attendant, shuffleboard station and game-day-inspired food and beverage menus. The property also recently introduced the Alpine Exchange Boutique, which offers a collection of apparel, accessories and luxury travel essentials. Bookable guest experiences include new private fire pits and luxury cabanas, both of which seat up to six people, with each with special menus.
The fitness center has also undergone extensive renovations and now includes new Technogym equipment with QR codes to download the app and track a workout, heart rate and other features. The refreshed space also offers five Peloton bikes, seven treadmills, four StairMasters, a dedicated area for fitness classes, and more. Beyond the yoga studios lies an expansive deck with rocking chairs for guests can enjoy mountain views.
The property is also home to the Lake Club, The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe, offering direct beach access to North Shore Lake Tahoe, complimentary kayaks and paddle boards, access to MasterCraft boat rentals, gourmet F&B offerings to enjoy lakeside, and complimentary shuttle transportation to and from the resort.
