The hotel advertises a beach club for a fee. Is the beach club available to people in the timeshare units and if so, what is the fee? Anyone have any experiences with this? I have never been to incline village. I stayed at Northstar Hyatt to ski this year but have not visited in the summer.

Their Lake Club appears to be $611, for one day for one guest??? šŸ˜²
It looks like you can get pricing a little below that on certain days, but then there are assorted charges that add 33% to the total.

But you get a "chef-prepared luncheon!" Alcohol is extra. :rolleyes:

For that price or less, you could rent a 2-bdm. timeshare at the Hyatt High Sierra, and walk to their lake amenities for no additional charge!

Check ResortPass.com to see if it is listed for less. Apparently you can buy day passes for many of the Hawaii resorts. Perhaps Tahoe?

The Ritz Tahoe "Lake Club" indicates it is limited to 40 guests,thus the lux pricing. Different tax bracket than I live in, and I do ok.

Denise is correct. The Ritz Carlton Club timeshares are a gondola ride above the Hyatt at Northstar that you have already stayed at. We have owned a condo at Northstar since 1989 and have watched the development! There is a hotel at the top which has the amenities you are referring to but the timeshares are separate. When you go on the timeshare website these are the amenities they show: https://www.marriottvacationclubs.c...A0/the-ritzcarlton-club-lake-tahoe#resortInfo. I would call the Ritz Carlton Club and ask what hotel amenities might be available for free or maybe with a discounted fee.

I donā€™t mind paying extra for luxury but I am in shock at those Lake Club day prices. It seems that Hyatt Incline Village would be the way to go. Thanks everyone!
