MIAMI, October 1, 2024 – The award-winning Acqualina Resort & Residences launches a spectacular new three-bedroom suite located high atop the 31st floor of the beachfront property that is designed to impress with expansive spaces and refined features. In collaboration with designer Isabel Tragash, principal of STA Architectural Group, and Virgilio Mariano, founder of Ideal Casa Italian furniture, the new suite features sleek furniture, plush carpets, modern bathrooms in marble and covetable amenities, exquisite light fixtures in every room and an expansive private terrace that offers breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean.
“The new suite exemplifies Acqualina’s commitment to offering an unmatched stay for guests, particularly those who are looking for extra room without sacrificing style,” says Acqualina Resort CEO and Partner Deborah Yager Fleming. “We curated spaces that call to our coastal surroundings yet stand out with sophisticated elements that resemble a high-design villa in Europe.”
The entryway of the suite extends to two separate living areas, where a soothing neutral backdrop showcases ocean views. The living spaces are dotted with Ideal Casa Italian furniture offering both a rich heritage and contemporary design, from a statuesque console with walnut drawers and silver finishes — a perfect nook for getting work done or serving cocktails — to a modern upholstered Italian sectional meant for gathering and conversation.
In the main living area by the terrace, there is a sculptural sideboard and fluted coffee table with a bronze glass top; and guests will enjoy the duo of velvet diamond-designed “Alison” armchairs or relax on the new Miami sofa-bed made in Italy that imbues the color of the beach below. Abstract 4DaSoul rugs, aptly named “Mosaic Calm,” combine the soft sheen of viscose with an elegant finish of New Zealand wool, adding coastal calm to the spaces, while crystal octagonal table lamps and two metal LED “Fiama” chandeliers by Sean Lavin are a preview of the suite’s light fixtures.
In the full gourmet kitchen, there’s sleek wood cabinetry paired with luxurious Italian Lapitec stone countertops and a waterfall bar, and all of the culinary amenities one needs to cook a meal together. The nearby dining room features a circular Casa Spin Dining Table with a central steel column that’s wrapped in a full-grain leather in a spiral pattern, complemented by wood dining chairs with backrests. The table is anchored by a diamond-shaped “Everest” pendant by Elan Lighting, an ideal spot for soaking up the ocean views. The bar stools mimic the dining chairs, and are also architectural in nature, distinguished by a curved oak structure with a sinuous design.
In the primary bedroom, a crystal Possini Euro Design Vesta ring pendant hangs from the ceiling and white sateen linens and a duvet cover in a champagne trim and elegant drapery invites guests to linger longer. Views of the Atlantic Ocean can be seen from the bed, or on the private terrace.
Tragash of STA Architectural Group designed the primary bathroom in Italian-meets-coastal elegance, with gleaming Italian marble flooring, that’s echoed in the glass-enclosed shower for two, a textured wallcovering, and a stunning Vena Di Oro marble-top double vanity.
The suite’s other bedrooms also feature the same luxuries, including more inventive lighting and the third bedroom showcases twin beds for families or friends traveling together and vistas of the Intracoastal Waterway.
“The new suite not only offers the luxury of space,” says Yager Fleming, “but no matter which room guests are in, they’re treated to the same amount of opulence and avant-garde details.”
