The largest Ritz-Carlton is being built in Tucson, AZ

Yes, that’s right.

Ritz-Carlton is coming to Tucson! Moreover, it is going to be the largest and the best ever Ritz-Carlton.

Walking on the streets of Paris exactly 10 years ago, I was hoping to come back there one day to stay at Ritz-Carlton and dine at Maxim’s. To me it represented the ultimate luxury dream. "Imperiale" Suite in Ritz Paris is "only" €9,120 a night (approximately $13,275 as of today).

If you live in Tucson and ever have had a similar dream, you shall be excited to learn that Ritz-Carlton is getting closer than ever. If you want to be embraced by its luxury, you don’t have to fly to Paris. In fact, you don’t have to fly anywhere.

By the fall of 2009, just a few minutes of driving time will get you into the largest and most comprehensive of Ritz-Carltons. You even have an option to buy a house in the Ritz-Carlton Residences, so you can walk to the 17,000 square feet spa and  have access to concierge service, catering, room service and even personalized home management.

The residential area of this best of the best projects will have about 300 homes and 20 custom home sites. The residences will all have the finest appliances,   high-end kitchens, upgraded luxury wood and stone flooring, custom fixtures throughout, and much more, all included in the base price. Five models for the first phase of residences were designed by well know Kevin B. Howard Architects.

If you are considering buying a new luxury home in the next few years, keep this info in mind.
