Opening in November 2010, Dream South Beach will be the newest addition to South Beach’s Collins Avenue, directly behind the former Versace Mansion. The fashion-forward boutique hotel offers 108 guestrooms, dining by Michelin-starred Chef Geoffrey Zakarian, an intimate rooftop pool lounge named “Groovedeck” with views of the Atlantic, and a full-service spa. With a creative concept spearheaded by Michael Czysz’s design house Architropolis and interiors lead Kelly Ogden, Dream South Beach embodies the transformation of two iconic Art Deco South Beach hotels, the Tudor Hotel and Palmer House.
Historically serving as a buffer between the two hotel buildings, the Central Courtyard now serves as the main entrance of Dream South Beach. The promenade is lined with wall fountains and the pathway is illuminated by a custom in-laid acrylic floor pattern under-lit with atmospheric mood lighting. Nestled among the bamboo grove sits an 8-foot tall sculpture of Ganesha, the keeper of entrances, custom-designed for Dream by artist Miguel Rodríguez. The historic Palmer House lobby serves as Dream South Beach’s reception area. The Tudor lobby has been transformed into Dream South Beach’s restaurant space. All public areas in the renovated hotel feature custom-crafted furniture and lighting fixtures, elements that assist in evoking a surrealistic “dream state.” With the transformation of two iconic hotels, Dream South Beach combines a mix of design cues ranging from modern Moroccan to late ’70s gloss.
Dream South Beach features 108 guestrooms including the resplendent Sun House Duplex Penthouse, two Duplex Sun Suites, and nine Junior Suites. Upon entering the room, intricately carved, modernized French-Moroccan doors are back-lit by cool blue light to create a mystifying jewel box effect. Through the doors guests will find the bed perfectly centered with accents of prisms and touches of blue and gold. While the doors serve an aesthetic purpose, they also create an intimate changing area that provides private access to the bathroom and shower.
No attention to detail has been spared as all rooms come fully-equipped with 42-inch Panasonic Plasma TV, Skype- and Bluetooth-enabled smart phones, high-speed broadband Internet access and Wi-Fi, iPod docking system, pre-loaded iPods and DVD players, 380-plus-thread-count Egyptian cotton duvets and sheets, plush terry bathrobes, Etro bath amenities, in-room safes and a fully-stocked private bar. Guests also have full access to Spa’D, the onsite ayurvedic spa at Dream as well as unlimited access to concierge services that include but are not limited to dry cleaning service, same-day laundry, valet service, complimentary shopping services, and daily maid/turndown service.
