At Miami’s posh hotel residences, life can feel
like a permanent vacation. By Shayne Benowitz
SLS Brickell
DID YOUR LAST hotel stay rouse your inner Eloise? If so, consider one of Miami’s luxury hotel residences for your next big move. You won’t get plush robes (those are still reserved for actual guests), but perks like valet parking and dog walking are available. The downside of living life on vacation? It’ll cost you—a lot. The average price of a one-bedroom apartment in a hotel residence is considerably higher than a comparable unit elsewhere (in Brickell the difference can be as much as $500,000). But if you have the Benjamins, it might be time to check into these lavish digs for good.

SLS Brickell The mainland’s first SLS hotel is
also the brand’s first residence tower in the city. It opened late 2016 with much fanfare thanks to, in part, several big names: Jorge Pérez developed it, Philippe Starck designed it and James Beard Award winners José Andrés and Michael Schwartz both have restaurants on the property.
