St Regis Bal Harbour

 

A Short Story About St. Regis Bal Harbour

When the wealthy businessman John Jacob Astor IV built the iconic French-style St. Regis Hotel in New York City as a companion to the Waldorf Astoria in 1904, he further defined the archetype of a modern luxury hotel. After Astor's son inherited the hotel when his father died in the sinking of the Titanic, he sold the property and it changed hands several times over the last century. When Starwood Hotels finally acquired St. Regis in the late 90s, they used the name to launch the luxury St. Regis brand in hotels and resorts in a wide array of landscapes around the world.

When constructing the St Regis Bal Harbour, Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. in conjunction with Related Group and Sieger Suarez Architecture infused luxury that is synonymous with the St. Regis brand with the resort lifestyle that is characteristic of Miami coastal living. Soon after its completion in 2012, St. Regis Bal Harbour won several awards, including the prestigious AAA Five Diamond award and Forbes Five Star Award, and debuted in several travel-related publications including Condé Nast Travel and Travel + Leisure. 

The Architecture

The world-famous architectural team at Miami-based Sieger Suarez Architecture drew inspiration from the historic Art Deco buildings found throughout Miami, especially South Beach. Unlike those older buildings, the recently constructed St. Regis Bal Harbor sits upon more than nine acres of choice oceanfront property.
