In Short – Relax, it's quiet here. Catering toward adults, the Grande Lakes provides an environment for romance, relaxation and sophistication, rather than family-fun and its subsequent noise. Diners dress-up for the restaurants here (Tuscan fare at Primo; New World at Norman's); there's nothing miniature about the 18-hole golf course; the pool is a place to lounge in peace and the 40,000-square-foot Ritz-Carlton Spa facility specializes in pampering--from hot-stone massages to antioxidant facials to dips in warm mud baths.
