Best known for its miles of scenic coastline,
quaint
wharves and cobblestone streets, Newport
promises a vacation getaway like none
other. During the day you can stroll the
Cliff Walk and tour
some of Newport's opulent historic mansions,
head to the beach for some sun and surf, or
browse hundreds of unique shops and galleries.
At the end of the day, participate in a wine tasting at one of the three local vineyards before enjoying a memorable dining experience at one of the many waterfront restaurants on Bowen's or Bannister's Wharf. And with a year-round calendar of events ranging from music festivals and nautical events to professional sports tournaments, there's always something to do. |

Originally built as a summer residence by
Alfred G.
Vanderbilt in 1909, this grand "summer
cottage" was
later christened as The Newport Men's Social
Club by
Vanderbilt in memory of his father. Today,
the newly
renovated Vanderbilt Residence Club is a
luxurious
second home alternative with the service and
style of
a four-star hotel. Here
you can live like a King and be pampered like
a Queen. Centrally located in the heart of
Newport, everything is a stroll from the
Vanderbilt
Residence Club. Walking through history
starts at the
front door and continues in all directions
including
onto world-famous Bellevue Avenue where the
town's
social elite laid their concrete claims to
fame with
magnificent mansions.
The harbor is seen in all of its beauty from several locations including the Rooftop Terrace where owners can enjoy their meals. The ground floor is home to an intimate theater, available for small conferences or to watch movies if there is inclement weather. There is also a fitness center, a spa with two treatment rooms, a robe lounge for relaxation or private yoga instruction, men's and women's areas with steam rooms, a sauna and a 50-foot indoor swimming pool. |

The 32-room mansion consists of studios and
junior, one-,
two- and three-bedroom suites. All of the
amenities
of a modern home are available with LCD flat
screen
televisions in the lounge and sleeping areas,
wireless
Internet, and IPod docking stations. Suites
also come
equipped with a sink, small
refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker. Enjoy
relaxed en-suite dining before retiring for
the evening
on the plush pillow-top mattresses encased in
luxury
bedding with Egyptian cotton linens.
Your residence at the Vanderbilt Residence Club also features dedicated concierge services, local transportation via club car, valet and on-site parking, daily housekeeping, and nightly turndown service.
