From January through May, 2006: To celebrate The Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne's distinction as Miami's only AAA Five Diamond resort, General Manager Marco Selva is randomly placing one dazzling diamond necklace from SABBIA Fine Jewelry under a guest's pillow each month!  

Located inside The Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne, SABBIA Fine Jewelry features exquisite designs from internationally acclaimed artists including Oscar Heyman, Mouawad and Anthony Nak. Classically inspired, the original pieces feature unsurpassed workmanship and creativity, which is a hallmark of the SABBIA boutique.

Each necklace boasts five diamonds totaling nearly one carat and is enhanced with a sparkling sapphire to represent the Ritz-Carlton signature cobalt blue and is valued at over $3,000.  The grand finale in the final month (May) is a special pair of designer diamond and sapphire earrings by Mouawad.

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 one percent earns the Five Diamond distinction. The Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne is the only Miami property added to the list.

For reservations, please call The Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne at (305) 365-4500 or (800) 241-3333
