Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne Giving Away Diamonds
KEY BISCAYNE, FL, January 10, 2006. Marco Selva, general manager of the Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne here, is randomly placing a diamond necklace under a guest's pillow each month from January to May 2006. The pricey program is to celebrate the hotel's distinction as Miami's only AAA Five Diamond resort.
Each necklace from SABBIA Fine Jewelry features five diamonds totaling nearly one carat and a sapphire to represent The Ritz-Carlton signature cobalt blue. Each necklace is valued at more than $3,000, according to Selva.
To cap off the program in May, a special pair of diamond and sapphire earrings by Mouawad will be given away. To qualify, guests need only to book a guestroom or suite at the published rate.
Of the 50,000 properties that AAA evaluates each year, less than one-half of 1% earn the Five Diamond distinction, Selva noted.
