W Hotel & Residences
|
|
Soon to become the most venerated and already a highly anticipated condominium and hotel hybrid in South Florida, the W Hotel & Residences will deliver a smorgasbord of top amenities and features that may end up putting its fellow South Beach competitors to shame. Seemingly infinite and impeccably maintained gardens, around the clock services courtesy of the W brand’s Whatever/Whenever axiom and a massive 300 feet of private beach frontage don’t even begin to justify what’s in store for future guests and residents once the W Hotel & Residences opens in 2008.
Though infamous for its signature Whatever/Whenever service, which means guests can request services such as dry cleaning regardless of the time of day, what many are really excited to see at the W is the monumental full service Bliss Spa, stretching a colossal 10,000 square feet and offering practically all the services you can think of either on the spa premises or in the comfort of your own condo home, hotel suite and then some. Also in the works are two five star restaurants each with distinct menus for all kinds of taste buds and even a lounge and nightclub that may end up becoming the definitive go to hotspot for some of entertainment’s biggest celebrity names. And don’t forget you’ll also be able to unwind in one of the W condominium’s two resort style pools. Enjoy living, lodging and indulging in a luxurious seventh heaven.
With more than 490 units in store, you’ll have plenty of neighbors to meet and mingle with at the W Hotel & Residences. Each of these units will be a minimum of 600 square feet and will come pre-furnished for those who want to immediately move in and enjoy their new homes and the unobstructed ocean vistas instead of worrying about the furniture. Residents can also combine any adjacent rooms to their liking in order to further add their own touch and customization.
Standing on Collins Avenue makes the W Hotel a spot on location in terms of making access to neighboring South Beach streets and roads that much easier. After all, Lincoln Road and Ocean Drive are two of the infamous streets residents will have to choose from and considering how much there is to see and do, it’s practically a required visit. Just across the street from Ocean Drive lies the sprawling beachfront that gives Miami Beach its instantly recognizable name. A suntan or an energizing workout across the radiant sands is only a brief drive or a pleasant walk away.
