No you will not earn points on the resort fee. Ritz-Carlton only awards points on the room rate (but you will still get the 1000 point Platinum arrival bonus).

Every RC property I have been to that charges flat rate resort fees (e.g. $25 a day), charges them on reward stays as well. Properties like RC San Juan, where the resort fee is a percentage of the room rate, do not charge them on reward stays.

That is incorrect. Only the Ritz-Carlton Rewards credit card (the one with the $395 annual fee) earns 5x points on RC spend. If the OP does have this card, then he will earn 5x points on all of his spend during this stay.
