AMELIA ISLAND
ANNUAL
MEETING

SEPTEMBER 15-18, 2024

HOST HOTEL
THE RITZ-CARLTON  |  AMELIA ISLAND, FL
(866) 763-2960
COASTAL VIEW ROOM (KING or Q/Q): $349

+​$40 Resort Fee per room, per day includes:

Fitness Class of the Day

Bicycle usage for up to two bikes, for two hours

Golf club driving range balls, use of golf practice facilities 

Tennis court privileges (including racquet and balls) for one hour

Two beach chairs per room

Beach umbrella (one per room)

Two beach boogie boards (up to two hours per day, per room)

Please refrain from reserving more than two rooms in our block without first requesting an exception from WMA. As you are aware, there is a very fine line in guesstimating the number of rooms that will be needed for our group.  There is typically only a 10% buffer over or under.  Falling short of our block puts WMA in financial liability and needing more rooms than we have blocked means some licensees may be stuck without a room or paying a higher rate. Ultimately, we want everyone who is able and interested in attending our meeting to be able to do so and to have a room at our negotiated hotel and rate.

 

To deter multiple, duplicate, and “what if” bookings and so WMA can best allocate our room block allotment, WMA reserves the right to notify the licensee and move any rooms in our block to the regular rack rate IF we are short of rooms and IF there is not an associated event registration.
