There’s no doubt about it: Owning a penthouse, especially one at the luxurious Ritz-Carlton Residences, is a dream for most. However, if you don’t mind sharing, then buying a slice of paradise isn’t as far-fetched as it may seem.

The Diamond Head Club is a private residence club located at the top (37^th, 38^th and 39^th floors) of the Ritz-Carlton Residences and is currently selling part-time ownership of six penthouse residences, ranging from 2,100 to 4,100 square feet. Each penthouse will also come with a private rooftop cabana that opens up to a 5,400-square-foot rooftop lanai (veranda) that is only accessible to Diamond Head Club members. Here you can enjoy a luxurious pool, barbecue grills, bubbling jacuzzis and a stunning 270-degree view of Waikiki Beach.

Of course, Diamond Head Club members will also be able to enjoy all of the amenities provided by the Ritz-Carlton Residences, such as a family and adult pools, a fitness center and movement studio, movie theater, restaurants and a grocery market. But why would you want to leave your penthouse? Equipped with magnificent floor-to-ceiling windows, Miele appliances and a den to die for, it’ll be hard not spending your entire vacay from the comforts of your own digs.

And although the starting price for a penthouse is just a fraction of what it would cost for full ownership, you’ll be dropping at least $700,000, including annual dues such as maintenance fees, property tax and property insurance. Owners can enroll in a flexible-ownership program—four weeks of ownership per year (two weeks of ownership in October to April and two weeks from April to October) or an easier-to-manage fixed ownership program—two weeks of ownership per year in a specific penthouse residence during one of five peak months of the year (December, January, April, May or August.)
