St. Regis(R) Hotels & Resorts have announced the highly anticipated opening of The St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort on January 19, 2012. The St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort will reveal the affluent Bal Harbour enclave as a coveted international destination: at once a secluded escape with unrivalled amenities and a destination at the intersection of art, design and fashion all within reach of the vibrant energy of Miami. As one of the nation’s most impressive oceanfront developments, The St Regis Bal Harbour will offer guests a new dimension of bespoke luxury with the resort’s 214 elegant, ocean view rooms and suites and 307 residences in three all-glass towers rising 27 stories above an expansive stretch of beach. The magnificent resort will offer signature St. Regis Butler Service, a sprawling Remède Spa, a world class dining experience at Jean-Georges’ restaurant J&G Grill, exquisite interior design by Yabu Pushelberg, contemporary art and the finest finishes with one-of-a-kind West African Movinque wood and Chinese God Flower Stone Marble from a private quarry commissioned exclusively for the resort.

Guestrooms and Suites

Designed by Sieger Suarez Architectural Partnership with interiors by celebrated design firm Yabu Pushelberg, guestrooms will reflect a contemporary Art Deco style, a subtle nod to Morris Lapidus, the legendary architect of neo-baroque modern Miami. Ranging from 650 to 2,800 square feet, all guestrooms will offer expansive private balconies with ocean views.

The exclusive 2,800 square foot Presidential Suite will be located on the 24th floor and accessible via private elevator. Here, guests will discover a gourmet kitchen, a media room, two bedrooms, a dining room and 1,200 square foot private ocean-facing balcony.

The resort will be Wi-Fi accessible and guests will enjoy state-of-the-art hotel technology, such as programmed key cards that automatically whisk guests up to their guestroom floor.

Exquisite Culinary Experiences

J&G Grill(R) will be The St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort’s signature restaurant presented by world-renowned chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten. Featuring the exquisite cuisine of this international star, J&G Grill at The St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort will set new standards for Bal Harbour as a world-class dining destination.

The St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort will feature an oceanfront grill for casual oceanfront dining called Fresco focused on South American-influenced cuisine as well as Atlantico, a breakfast, lunch and dinner restaurant, with a focus on seafood. Poolside cabana and beach services will complement the resort’s private beach and pools, including an adults-only pool area with exclusive day cabanas.
