southFLORIDA There is a stretch of the year in South Florida when everything feels a little more cinematic. The light lingers longer, the water turns impossibly blue, and the familiar rhythm of the season returns with renewed energy. It is a time when life here feels effortless and elevated at once, when terraces fill, travel plans take shape, and the connection between luxury and lifestyle feels especially clear. Not only in the places we live, but in the way we move through the world, the destinations we choose, and the details that surround us.

Our third issue of LUXE reflects that sense of movement. Within these pages, the story of modern luxury extends beyond South Florida, from extraordinary yachts and international escapes to new residential concepts designed for those who want a place here without ever feeling tied down. The idea of home has become more fluid and more intentional, whether it is a waterfront estate, a residence along the Intracoastal, or a villa across the world.

What defines luxury today is not excess, but access. Access to craftsmanship, to privacy, to experiences that feel personal rather than predictable. It is found in the hotel that feels like a discovery, the journey taken on instinct, and the spaces designed to make everyday life feel considered.

With each issue, LUXE evolves alongside that world, following the places, spaces, and experiences that define what modern luxury looks like now.

This season, that world feels expansive, filled with new destinations, new ideas, and new ways to live beautifully.

It is a beautiful time to be here, and an even better time to explore.

Yours in the Pursuit of Luxury,

Jessica Graves

Serviced to

perfection A new Boca Raton location reframes the

Ferrari experience, shifting the focus from

acquisition to what happens long after the keys are handed over

LMGFL.COM/LUXE | LUXE 2026 37

he cars may be the draw, but at Ferrari of Boca Raton, they are only the beginning.

“It’s about giving people more than they expect,” says Stuart Hayim, founder of Experience Auto Group, the familyowned group behind both the Boca Raton and Fort Lauderdale Ferrari dealerships.

“Whether it’s a purchase or service, we want to create an experience that feels rewarding in ways a client didn’t anticipate.”

That philosophy takes shape in Boca Raton.

Positioned just north of its Fort Lauderdale counterpart, the newly opened location reflects a shift in emphasis. Not away from performance or product, but toward the full arc of ownership. It is less about the moment a car is delivered and more about everything that follows.

F o r Garrett Hayim, President, the expansion was driven by both growth and proximity. “We had outgrown our 180,000-square-foot facility, and with so many of our clients based in Boca, it made sense to serve them where they live,” he says.

“Building there, rather than expanding Fort Lauderdale, gave us a natural foundation with our race teams and vintage service already in place there.”

What emerged is not a traditional showroom, but a more

38

LUXE 2026 | LMGFL.COM/LUXE

considere d environment designed around continuity.

While Fort Lauderdale continues to anchor new Ferrari commissions, Boca is structured to support ownership over time, with an emphasis on certified pre-owned vehicles, service, and a growing base of collectors.

The two locations operate in quiet alignment, sharing inventory, clientele, and a unified approach that allows clients to move between them seamlessly. The Boca Raton facility is essentially an extension of Fort Lauderdale; two locations operating as one unified dealership.

That seamlessness is not just operational, but cultural. The team approaches Ferrari with a level of fluency that goes beyond product knowledge, shaped by immersion rather than training.

It is that depth, paired with a more personal approach to clientele, that defines the experience. Relationships are built over time, often spanning multiple cars and years of ownership, creating a sense of continuity that feels rare in the automotive world. Clients are guided, not processed, and the dealership becomes less of a destination and more of a constant.

That perspective is shared at the top. “If you simply say please, thank you, and operate with honesty, you already have an advantage,” Stuart Hayim says. It is a straightforward philosophy, but one that underpins the broader approach.

His motivation today is less about expansion and more about impact. “At this point in my life, I’m not working for money,” he says. “I’m working for emotional gratification. There’s a tremendous amount of fulfillment in helping people realize a dream.”

That sense of fulfillment extends far beyond the dealership itself. Ferrari ownership opens the door to a world that is largely invisible from the outside, defined by access, experience, and immersion. Owners begin with curated driving programs, then progress to track days supported by the factory, where the environment mirrors professional racing.

From there, the experience expands globally. Private rallies, known as cavalcades, take clients across landscapes like Patagonia or through the winding roads of Europe. Multi-day drives are paired with private accommodations, curated dining, and access to Ferrari’s inner circle, creating a level of engagement that feels less like ownership and more like participation.

For collectors, Boca introduces an additional layer. The facility is

positioned to support vintage Ferrari ownership at a high level, from modern and vintage service to concours preparation. Cars can move from acquisition to exhibition within the same ecosystem, allowing clients to engage with the heritage of the brand as fully as its future.

The result is a more complete interpretation of luxury. It is not defined by access alone, but by how that access is experienced over time. Consistency replaces urgency. Familiarity replaces formality. The emphasis shifts from acquisition to relationship.

“There are clients who prefer to experience Ferrari within their own community,” Garrett Hayim says. “And we were more than willing to meet them there.”

The New Hospitality Coast

From a family-owned beachfront resort to a billion-dollar harbor revival, five Fort Lauderdale hotels reveal how the city’s luxury landscape is evolving convention district has taken shape along the water. Historic icons Fort Lauderdale has always had two identities.

There’s the beach town visitors have come to know by heart—slow have undergone billion-dollar reinventions. Boutique beachfront afternoons on the sand, the hum of beachside shops, and yachts hotels have introduced design-driven concepts, while family-run gliding through the Intracoastal. Then there’s the city that has resorts continue to thrive, their presence anchored to the same matured around it, where new towers rise beside historic landmarks stretch of sand they’ve occupied for generations.

Different visions, different histories. Yet each captures something and hospitality has become both an art and an industry.

Over the past several years, that evolution has accelerated. A new essential about what makes Fort Lauderdale unmistakably unique.

LMGFL.COM/LUXE | LUXE 2026 43

P

Pier Sixty-Six FORT Lauderdale

The Social Harbor Reawakens

Pier Sixty-Six may best capture where the city is heading next.

Following a billion-dollar transformation, the legendary waterfront property has reopened as a 32-acre resort and residential community built around one of the largest superyacht marinas on the Eastern Seaboard.

The marina defines the experience. With more than 5,000 linear feet of dockage accommodating vessels up to 400 feet, it is not simply an amenity, it is the organizing principle of the entire property.

44

LUXE 2026 | LMGFL.COM/LUXE

Life unfolds around it.

Yachts ease into slips. Crews move with quiet precision. Guests drift between terraces, restaurants, and lounges that open directly onto the water. Walkways trace the harbor’s edge, creating a sense of constant motion that feels more like a working waterfront than a resort set piece.

That energy carries through the design. A 325-room hotel anchors the property, with sightlines intentionally oriented toward the marina, Intracoastal, and Atlantic beyond. Floor-to-ceiling glass and open-air

transitions keep the water present from nearly every vantage point.

Dining acts as both anchor and activation. More than a dozen venues are positioned throughout the property, each calibrated to a different moment of the day. Mornings begin quietly along the docks, afternoons stretch into long, sunlit lunches, and evenings build into a more layered social rhythm that extends across the harbor.

The return of Pier Top reestablishes one of Fort Lauderdale’s most recognizable vantage points, its rotating views once again connecting the property to its history while reframing it for a new generation. At ground level, the gradual reopening of legacy touchpoints like Pelican Landing signals a deliberate effort to restore the places that defined the property’s identity while elevating their role within a more expansive setting.

Wellness is integrated into that same flow. The 13,000-square-foot Zenova Spa introduces a full program of treatments, recovery spaces, and experiential elements designed to complement, rather than separate from, the pace of the property. Guests move easily between marina, pool, dining, and spa, creating a continuity that feels considered rather than compartmentalized.

For the first time, that experience extends into private ownership.

The Indigo and Azul residences introduce a residential layer that is fully embedded within the resort environment. Expansive glass, deep terraces, and indoor-outdoor living spaces frame unobstructed views of the marina and waterways, reinforcing the connection between residence and setting.

At the top of the market, the release

of the Indigo Penthouse signals both scale and scarcity. Spanning nearly 7,800 total square feet, with more than 5,600 square feet of interior space and a 2,150-square-foot wraparound terrace, the residence is defined as much by its positioning as its size. Twin plunge pools placed on opposite sides of the terrace capture both sunrise over the Atlantic and sunset across the Intracoastal, anchoring the home to the full arc of the day.

What emerges is something larger than a resort or a residential project.

The redevelopment positions Pier Sixty-Six as a fully realized waterfront district, one where hospitality, boating culture, and private ownership intersect.

Few places in Fort Lauderdale bring those elements together at this scale, or with this level of cohesion.

The Next Chapter A Conversation with Amy Ballon

Amy Ballon, Director of Sales, Pier Sixty-Six Residences You’ve spent decades in South Florida’s luxury residential market. What drew you to Pier Sixty-Six at this stage of your career?

My path into development was shaped early on by my father, who was a builder in California and part of the evolution of modern multifamily living.

I’ve now been in South Florida for more than three decades, working in luxury real estate, and it remains one of the most dynamic markets in the world.

Pier Sixty-Six stood out because of its legacy and the scale of what’s being created. It’s rare to be part of a project that isn’t just new, but truly transformative. The opportunity to help shape the next chapter of such an iconic waterfront destination felt meaningful.

The Indigo Penthouse marks a significant moment for the project. What does it signal about where the residences are today?

It represents a shift. When we first launched, buyers were responding to the vision. Now the residences are established, the property is active, and people are living here.

The listing itself reflects how far Fort Lauderdale’s luxury market has come. At this level, buyers are looking for scale, privacy, and something that feels singular. As we reach this stage, inventory naturally becomes more limited as the property transitions from new development to a legacy address.

Now that the full experience is operational, how has that changed buyer behavior?

It’s completely changed the conversation. Before, people had to imagine it. Now they can walk the marina, spend time on property, and understand the scale immediately.

That emotional connection is powerful. Once buyers experience it firsthand, it becomes much more than a residence. They begin to understand how everything connects, and that’s when it resonates.

What are you seeing in terms of how buyers plan to use these residences?

There’s a mix. Some are full-time residents, others are seasonal, and some are looking at it as part of a broader lifestyle that includes boating.

That connection to the marina is key. For many buyers, it’s not just about owning a home—it’s about having direct access to the water and being able to move seamlessly between the residence, their boat, and the rest of the property.

Fort Lauderdale has no shortage of new luxury developments. What makes this one different?

It’s the scale and the integration. This isn’t just a residential tower. It’s a destination built around one of the most iconic marinas in the country.

Everything is connected—the residences, the resort, the dining, the wellness. That level of activity and programming is something you typically see in global yachting destinations.

There’s also a sense of history here, which adds another layer. It’s not starting from scratch, it’s building on something people already know.

OMNI HOTEL FORT Lauderdale

Where the Waterway Meets the World A few miles north along the Intracoastal, the Omni Fort Lauderdale Hotel rises 29 stories above the water, its curved glass façade reflecting cruise ships gliding toward Port Everglades.

Directly connected to the Broward County Convention Center, the property anchors the city’s expanding waterfront district and represents one of the most ambitious hospitality investments in the region.

Now in its first full season, the hotel feels less like a newcomer and more like natural addition to the destination.

48

LUXE 2026 | LMGFL.COM/LUXE

With 801 guest rooms, including 82 suites, and more than 120,000 square feet of meeting and event space, the Omni delivers the scale Fort Lauderdale’s waterfront corridor has been building toward.

The centerpiece is the Waterway Ballroom, a sweeping 30,000-squarefoot venue with panoramic Intracoastal views. The hotel and the adjacent Broward County Convention Center, the largest convention facility in the Southeast U.S., boasting over 1.2 million square feet of total space and six acres of outdoor waterfront plaza, form

LMGFL.COM/LUXE | LUXE 2026 49

an unrivaled events destination, accommodating every occasion from elegant weddings and milestone celebrations to the region's most prominent conventions and trade shows.

Together, they reflect a broader shift across Fort Lauderdale’s waterfront, shaped by a more coordinated effort between Broward County and Omni to elevate the destination and expand

50

LUXE 2026 | LMGFL.COM/LUXE

the type of travelers and gatherings it attracts.

Yet the hotel’s appeal extends far beyond large gatherings.

General Manager Gayla Guyse, a 25-year Omni executive, assembled a leadership team largely drawn from within the brand, a decision that shapes the experience from the ground up.

“We’ve gathered an incredibly talented group of professionals,” Guyse says.

“Each member brings not only expertise but a genuine passion for hospitality.”

Design throughout the property embraces a restrained coastal aesthetic.

Pale woods, textured fabrics, and floorto-ceiling windows frame views of both the Atlantic and Intracoastal, creating a sense of continuity between interior and exterior spaces.

Executive Chef Cristian Mosquera, a Le Cordon Bleu–trained chef and Fort Lauderdale native, oversees seven dining concepts that blend local seafood traditions with global influences.

“Each has to stand on its own, but they all need to feel connected,” Mosquera says.

His approach starts with the freshest ingredients.

"There’s so much access, especially with seafood, that the goal is not to overwork it. Let it speak, then add layers where they make sense."

Ten floors up, the rooftop pool deck has already become

one of the city’s most sought-after daytime escapes. Above that, the adults-only Ibis Sky Lounge on the 29th floor introduces skyline views with curated dishes showcasing Wagyu, premium tuna, caviar and carefully hand-selected ingredients. While enjoyment is key, wellness plays an equally central role. The Mokara Spa spans 8,500 square feet and includes a Hammam, steam room, treatment suites, and an open-air plunge pool inspired by Florida’s natural springs.

“We want the people who stay with us,” says Guyse, “to leave with a sense of joy, renewal, and moments that feel truly their own.

Lago Mar Beach Resort & Club FORT Lauderdale A Legacy by the Sea

Long before luxury towers began rising along Fort Lauderdale’s shoreline, Lago Mar Beach Resort & Club has been welcoming guests to one of the city’s most coveted stretches of sand for 60 years.

The resort occupies ten lush acres along the Atlantic, with 500 feet of private beachfront.

In South Florida, that kind of space is increasingly rare and remains one of the defining features of the property’s enduring appeal.

What distinguishes Lago Mar is not simply its location, but the consistency of the experience it delivers.

“We’re still traditional. You can see it, you can feel it,” says Debbie Banks-Snyder. “People come here because they know what they’re going to get.”

That sense of continuity is immediately apparent. The lobby greets guests with a bronze pineapple chandelier and mosaic floors depicting sea creatures, crafted by the same artisan who worked on Gianni Versace’s famed South Beach mansion. A signature scent called Endless Sunshine drifts through the space.

Accommodations reinforce that familiarity.

The resort offers 44 guest rooms and 160 suites, each with private balconies overlooking the ocean or the resort’s tropical grounds. The layouts are generous, the finishes classic, and the emphasis remains on comfort rather than trend.

“Our guests have their routines here,” BanksSnyder says. “They know where they like to sit,

52

LUXE 2026 | LMGFL.COM/LUXE

what they like to do. That becomes part of their stay.”

Dining, too, reflects that philosophy of quiet consistency. Rather than chasing trends, Lago Mar focuses on delivering a sense of occasion rooted in familiarity, where longtime guests return to the same tables and favorite dishes year after year. The oceanfront setting naturally takes center stage, whether for a relaxed lunch between swims or an evening meal timed to the fading light over the Atlantic. Service is attentive without being intrusive, and the atmosphere leans more private club than highprofile hotspot.

Outside, the property unfolds through a series of distinct but connected environments.

Two pools offer different experiences, one a serene adults-only setting, the other a lagoonstyle pool designed for families. Tennis and pickleball courts sit beside a miniature golf course and playground, creating a rhythm that feels natural rather than programmed.

On the beach, recent enhancements introduce striped cabanas, daybeds, and games that elevate the experience without altering its character.

The approach to improvement is deliberate.

The resort invests roughly $5 million each year in upgrades, from infrastructure to interiors, but avoids dramatic reinvention.

“We’re always updating, but we’re careful,” Banks-Snyder says. “It has to feel like Lago Mar.” While trends come and go, Lago Mar Beach Resort & Club holds fast to what still matters.

AC Hotel

FORT Lauderdale BEACH Modernism, With a View Along one of South Florida’s most recognizable shorelines, the AC Hotel Fort Lauderdale Beach introduces a different kind of luxury, one rooted in European restraint rather than spectacle.

The brand traces its origins to Spanish entrepreneur Antonio Catalán, whose vision for AC Hotels emphasized disciplined design, clean lines, and thoughtful simplicity. That philosophy carries through every corner of the Fort Lauderdale property.

From the street, the building’s contemporary façade reflects the rhythm of Fort Lauderdale Beach Boulevard. Inside, the atmosphere shifts immediately into something more composed.

Neutral palettes, warm woods, stone textures, and sleek metal finishes create a sense of balance throughout

the lobby and public spaces.

Carefully curated artwork punctuates the interiors, turning corridors and common areas into quiet galleries.

Guest rooms follow the same design language.

Hardwood floors and low platform beds create uncluttered sightlines, while crisp linens and understated finishes allow natural light from the Atlantic to take center stage. Many rooms open onto private balconies overlooking either the ocean or the Intracoastal, transforming sunrise coffee or an evening glass of wine into a daily ritual.

Small sensory details elevate the experience.

The hotel’s signature scent, Between the Woods, blends fig leaf, amber elements, and fir balsam, creating an atmosphere that feels both fresh and memorable. At night, a simple lavender turndown ritual reinforces Above: The hotel's rooftop pool offers 360-degree views of the Atlantic.

the property’s focus on quiet refinement.

Upstairs, the rooftop pool deck delivers the hotel’s most memorable perspective. From this vantage point, the Atlantic stretches endlessly to the east while the Intracoastal glimmers to the west.

When golden hour settles across the water,

the rooftop feels less like a party scene and more like a lookout.

Dining continues the European thread.

The AC Kitchen offers a Mediterraneaninspired breakfast centered on simplicity and quality, while the AC Lounge transitions into an evening setting designed for conversation,

with tapas-style plates and an approachable wine program.

In a destination known for bold architecture and vibrant nightlife, the hotel offers a quieter counterpoint, one where restraint becomes the defining luxury.

Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa FORT Lauderdale BEACH Where the Experience Expands

Harbor Beach Resort & Spa has always understood its setting. It builds on that foundation to broaden the experience.

The recent renovation reads less like a redesign and more like a recalibration, particularly across its dining and wellness experiences. The goal wasn’t to replace what worked, but to sharpen it. “Our intention was to captivate both our longstanding guests and those discovering us for the first time,” says Executive Chef Mikey Termini. “By reimagining the Sea Level dinner experience and unveiling the Engine Room speakeasy, we created a destination that feels elevated, unexpected, and unforgettable.”

That perspective is grounded in his approach to food itself. Drawing from his time in Hawaii, Termini’s menus focus on “fresh local seafood and globally influenced flavors,” balancing dishes that feel “exciting yet approachable” across both leisure dining and group settings.

At 3030 Ocean, that philosophy is expressed with restraint. The restaurant centers on “the freshest local seafood and seasonal, soulful South Florida flavors,” positioning itself as a more refined counterpoint within the resort’s broader culinary mix.

The Engine Room introduces something entirely

different. Tucked away and intentionally discreet, it adds a sense of discovery that feels new to the property.

Built as a tribute to J. Willard Marriott Jr.’s time aboard the USS Randolph, the concept extends into a menu shaped by global influence. “When guests step into the Engine Room, we want them to feel as though they’ve uncovered a hidden journey,” Termini says. “Intimate, intriguing, and entirely unexpected.”

Sea Level remains the most visible venue, but its role has evolved. The redesign introduces a more deliberate transition from day to evening. “The feeling of sunrise was our strongest inspiration,” Termini says. “The cool, crisp air off the ocean paired with the warmth of the sun.” That balance carries through the menu, where Caribbean and Latin American influences reinterpret familiar dishes with subtle international detail.

Maintaining cohesion across seven outlets comes down to collaboration rather than uniformity. “With seven unique outlets, collaboration becomes essential,” Termini says. “The conversation quickly turns into storytelling.”

The spa operates with a similar philosophy. Rather than feeling separate from the rest of the resort, it is positioned as part of the overall flow. “The spa is an integrated part of the guest journey,” says Director of

LMGFL.COM/LUXE | LUXE 2026 57

Spa David Cully. Guests move between beach, treatments, and dining without disruption. “They move from rejuvenation into relaxed meals and social moments, enhancing both nourishment and indulgence.”

The result is a property that offers contrast without fragmentation. Each space serves a distinct purpose, but all contribute to a more cohesive experience.

Or, as Termini puts it, “We want to be known for offering cuisine that feels both comforting and unexpected.”

Maintaining cohesion across seven outlets comes down to collaboration rather than uniformity. Each concept is designed to stand on its own, but together they create a more complete narrative, one that reflects both the setting and the range of guests moving through it.

That sense of continuity extends beyond dining.

The spa operates with a similar philosophy. Rather than feeling separate from the rest of the resort, it is positioned as part of the overall flow, allowing guests to move naturally between beach, treatments, and dining without interruption.

For

more than a century, Fort Lauderdale has been shorthand for escape. In the early 1900s, winter visitors arrived by train, trading northern frost for Atlantic light. By the midcentury boom years, families returned season after season to the same oceanfront hotels, and boaters followed the Intracoastal south only to discover they had no intention of turning back. It became a place to exhale, to loosen the tie, to let the sun do its quiet work.

That legacy still hums beneath the surface. What has changed is not the invitation, but the scale.

Each year, more than 13 million visitors choose Greater Fort Lauderdale as their landing place, arriving from across the United States, Canada, Latin America, and Europe. They step off planes at Fort LauderdaleHollywood International Airport and within minutes find themselves staring at open ocean — the same immediate pivot from runway to shoreline that has defined the destination for decades.

For those who live here, the statistics are familiar: 24 miles of beaches, more than 300 miles of waterways, relentless sunshine. They describe the setting. They do not fully explain the evolution.

Sunrise along Fort Lauderdale Beach still

LUXE 2026 | LMGFL.COM/LUXE

feels cinematic, the horizon brushed in silver and pale blue. Joggers move in quiet rhythm with the tide. By midmorning, paddleboards skim across calm water while sportfishing boats angle toward offshore reefs. The shoreline remains expansive and open. Just beyond it, the Intracoastal reveals another layer. Superyachts rest beside heritage vessels, reinforcing the region’s reputation as one of the world’s most influential yachting capitals.

The difference today is how seamlessly luxury has risen alongside that maritime heritage.

Four Seasons Hotel and Residences Fort Lauderdale anchors the beachfront with modern restraint and oceanfacing terraces that blur indoors and out. The RitzCarlton Fort Lauderdale continues to define polished coastal living, its spa culture and elevated dining reinforcing that this is no longer a secondary stop between Miami and Palm Beach. The reimagined Pier Sixty-Six Resort, with its iconic tower and expanded marina, signals something larger: investment,

permanence, ambition rooted in history rather than novelty.

Las Olas Boulevard has matured in parallel. What was once charming now feels curated. Fine art galleries sit beside designer boutiques and jewelers.

Long lunches transition into gallery openings and late reservations. Dock-and-dine is not spectacle; it is ritual, with vessels easing into slips as naturally as friends settling into familiar tables.

Culture holds its own.

Broward Center for the Performing Arts brings Broadway tours, ballet, and symphonic performances to audiences who dress for opening night. NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale pairs internationally minded exhibitions with a permanent collection that reflects the city’s global ties. These institutions are not add-ons.

They are part of the fabric.

The Water Taxi glides t h ro u g h d o w n t o w n’s c a n a l s, t ra n s f o r m i n g daily transportation into something almost ceremonial.

Families trace waterfront mansions. Visitors quietly calculate square footage and dockage. A short drive west, the Florida Everglades unfurl in dramatic contrast, airboats skimming across sawgrass and reminding everyone that wildness still frames the polished coast.

Dining mirrors the city’s

internationalism. With residents representing more than 170 countries, menus span continents with confidence. Oceanfront restaurants turn sunset into ceremony. Las Olas dining rooms balance intimacy with energy. Waterfront lounges glow against marina lights.

The culinary scene has grown up without losing its appetite.

The appeal lies in elasticity.

Fort Lauderdale can host the global glamour of the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, then slip comfortably into midweek calm. It welcomes LGBTQ+ travelers to the vibrant nightlife of Wilton Manors while remaining a year-round community. It accommodates multigenerational families, entrepreneurs building new ventures, snowbirds who return each winter as reliably as the tide, and full-time residents who no longer feel the need to look elsewhere.

For those who call it home, the steady arrival of 13 million

annual guests feels less like disruption and more like affirmation. The world has caught up to what locals have long understood: this is not merely a beach town.

It is a layered coastal city with global perspective and unforced ease.

The canals that earned it the moniker Venice of America continue to braid neighborhoods together.

Paddleboarders glide past waterfront estates. Highrise residences reflect sunset

light across quiet marinas.

Superyachts idle without urgency. The choreography works because it has evolved thoughtfully, without losing its core.

Fort Lauderdale does not demand reinvention. It offers continuity — to the water, to the rituals, to the easy luxury of living well. The skyline may rise and the dining rooms may refine, but the pulse still begins at the water’s edge.

In a city shaped by the sea, ambition can grow without losing its sense of play. The key is never outgrowing the splash that made it magnetic in the first place.

n Las Olas Boulevard, where turnover is constant, consistency is what separates the restaurants that last from the ones that don’t. Catch & Cut strikes that balance with a traditional steakhouse downstairs and a rooftop that brings a more social, high-energy dimension to the experience.

“We’re always trying to keep it classy and sophisticated, yet we want to keep it a local neighborhood spot,” says General Manager Sherwin Levitis. “It’s the place to be. We’ve added a piano with live music Thursday through Saturday, and we cater to larger parties and celebrations up there as well. The rooftop is open air, so the warmer weather can make it challenging, but the energy is what keeps people coming back.”

The rooftop has become one of the most photographed vantage points on the boulevard, where cocktails arrive quickly, the music stays just loud enough, and nights stretch longer than expected. The space is designed for momentum, with guests moving from early drinks into late evenings without

64

LUXE 2026 | LMGFL.COM/LUXE

ever feeling the need to leave.

“We want people to feel like they can come up here for anything—whether it’s a casual drink or a full night out,” Levitis says.

That sense of extension carries into the restaurant’s approach to happy hour, which quietly anchors the rooftop’s daytime appeal.

“We’re not exactly the longest happy hour, but on Fridays we offer it from 12 to 6 p.m.,” Levitis says. “A lot of people start their weekends earlier, and why not give them a place to do that? In the summer, when many locals travel, we still want to give guests something that makes it worth coming in.”

Seasonality shapes the rooftop experience as much as the menu. In warmer months, the focus shifts to lighter offerings that suit both the climate and the setting.

“Summer slows down drastically, so we have to roll with our guests,” Levitis says. “Menus get lighter—more sushi, more raw bar, more salads.”

The same philosophy extends behind the bar.

“The cocktails reflect the seasons. People want something that feels easy when it’s hot out.”

Themed events keep the rooftop active beyond dinner service. “We recently debuted our Rooftop Brunch Experience, rolling it back to the ’80s with high-energy music and a more playful vibe,” Levitis says. “Guests can enjoy passed hors d’oeuvres and an entrée, and we’ve added what we call the ‘All Day Toast,’ our version of a two-hour endless pour of Bloody Marys, mimosas, and champagne.”

What ultimately defines Catch & Cut is how seamlessly it moves from one experience to the next. From the dining room to the rooftop, it delivers a mix of food, music, and atmosphere that feels familiar without ever going stale.

State ofMind TOMMY BAHAMA DRESSES THE HOURS BETWEEN DOCKSIDE DEPARTURES AND DINNER RESERVATIONS

LUXE 2026 | LMGFL.COM/LUXE

LMGFL.COM/LUXE | LUXE 2026 67

“Changesin latitude, changes in attitude”

may have started as a Jimmy Buffett lyric, but in South Florida the sentiment has long functioned as a kind of unofficial dress code. Days move seamlessly from boat deck to bar stool to dinner table, and clothing is expected to keep pace. Linen is judged by how it holds up in humidity, silk by how it softens over time, and a jacket must feel just as natural at a marina lunch as it does under low light overlooking the Intracoastal. Dressing well here is less about occasion than environment.

That understanding sits at the center of Tommy Bahama, a brand that has spent more than three decades refining what it calls an island state of mind. “It’s the idea that life should feel relaxed but never careless,” says Doug Wood, CEO of Tommy Bahama. “Everything we design is meant to work in real life, not just on vacation.”

When the brand launched in 1993, the character of Tommy Bahama was imagined as a single man with enviable freedom, but the story has widened over time. “The original Tommy Bahama character was created from a male-centric point of view,” Wood says. “Today the narrative is about a couple living in a beach house, enjoying the good life together. What hasn’t changed is the attention to quality and styling seen through the Tommy Bahama lens.”

Rather than chase trends, the company has built its reputation on garments designed to live in a wardrobe for years.

“You have to have a distinct point of view and a consistent brand message,” Wood says. “We only adopt what makes sense for our guest, and we design it our way.”

Fabric has always been central to that philosophy, particularly in climates where comfort and polish must coexist. Over time, the materials have evolved alongside the customer. “We used to be known for silk,” Wood says. “Now we use performance fabrics, technical features, and new constructions that work in heat, humidity, and an active lifestyle, especially in places like South Florida.”

That lifestyle now includes movement as much as leisure.

“The definition of leisure has changed,” Wood says. “Our guest is active. They work out, they’re outside all day, and they expect our product to move with them. Leisure is the new luxury, and we design for that.”

68

LUXE 2026 | LMGFL.COM/LUXE

The brand’s Las Olas location reflects how far the concept has expanded beyond clothing alone. The boutique shares space with The Marlin Bar, blending retail, dining, and social life into a single experience. “Las Olas was originally a standalone store, and we always felt it would benefit from having hospitality there,” Wood says. “The Marlin Bar lets us show the progression of not just the product, but how we think about food, cocktails, and the full experience.”

The more casual Marlin Bar concept grew from lessons learned in the company’s full-service restaurants. “Even though it’s a relaxed setting, guests still expect the same level of service and attention to detail,” Wood says.

“Wherever they dine with us, we want them to feel the full Tommy Bahama experience.”

The same philosophy carries into the home collection, which has grown into one of the brand’s most personal expressions.

“The highest compliment is when someone wants the Tommy Bahama lifestyle in their home,” Wood says. “They want to wear the clothes, dine in the restaurants, and have their living room feel like an extension of that relaxed way of life.”

The brand has also shifted toward more sustainable sourcing, "about 85 percent of our products are now made from renewable or recycled fibers,” Wood says. “Our guest expects us to be responsible, but they also expect the same comfort and quality, so we have to do both.”

More than thirty years after its debut, the appeal of Tommy Bahama still comes back to the same idea that started it all: life is meant to be lived well, not rushed.

“The island state of mind isn’t about where you are,” Wood says. “It’s about how you want to live.”about how you want to live.”

outh Florida’s coastline has always evolved with the tide.

What begins as a quiet stretch of shoreline eventually becomes a skyline; what once housed motels and marinas transforms into glass towers and waterfront promenades. Yet even in a region accustomed to reinvention, the newest generation of residential projects feels distinct.

The ambition has shifted.

Luxury here is no longer measured simply by height or square footage.

Today ’s buyers are looking for something more nuanced: architecture that reflects its surroundings, residences designed to

feel like homes rather than hotel suites, and services that transform a building into a lifestyle.

Across Fort Lauderdale Beach and the barrier island of Hillsboro Beach, a handful of developments are quietly setting that tone. Some emphasize boutique scale and intimacy. Others lean into the global cachet of hospitality brands.

All share a common philosophy: coastal living should feel both elevated and effortless.

From North Beach Village to Hillsboro Beach, these four addresses illustrate how the next chapter of luxury living is taking shape.

The St. Regis Resort & Residences, Bahia Mar Fort Lauderdale

n one of the most storied stretches of Fort Lauderdale’s waterfront, a new chapter is beginning to take shape, one that signals just how far the city’s luxury ambitions have evolved.

The St. Regis Resort & Residences Bahia Mar is not simply another branded development. It is a full-scale reimagining of a 40-acre site long synonymous with the city’s identity as the yachting capital of the world, now positioned to become one of the most consequential luxury projects in South Florida.

Developed by a partnership that includes Related Group, Tate Capital, and Rok Acquisitions, the multi-billiondollar vision replaces the aging Bahia Mar resort with a layered, resort-driven destination that blends residential, hospitality, marina, and retail into a single waterfront environment.

At its core is the arrival of the St. Regis name, a central element of the project. For decades, ultra-luxury buyers seeking this level of service gravitated toward Miami or Palm Beach. Bahia Mar changes that equation, introducing a hospitality model built around anticipatory service, including the brand’s signature butler program.

Physically, the development unfolds across multiple towers, anchored by a five-star resort and complemented by residential buildings that emphasize both scale and privacy. Plans call for hundreds of residences alongside hotel rooms, condo-hotel units, and nearly 90,000 square feet of retail and dining,

creating a destination that extends well beyond traditional condominium living.

Architecture by Arquitectonica leans into the site’s key advantage: water on both sides. The positioning of the towers maximizes sightlines across the Atlantic and Intracoastal, while expansive terraces and floor-to-ceiling glass create a continuous connection between indoor and outdoor living.

Interiors, designed by Tara Bernerd & Partners, follow a similar philosophy, elevated but restrained, with an emphasis on natural materials, light, and proportion. The result is less about statement and more about atmosphere, with spaces that feel tailored to long-term living rather than seasonal turnover.

What ultimately sets Bahia Mar apart, however, is not just the buildings themselves, but the broader environment surrounding them.

The marina, long a signature of the site, is being reimagined as a worldclass deepwater facility capable of accommodating superyachts, reinforcing the project’s connection to Fort Lauderdale’s marine culture.

Around it, a pedestrian promenade, curated retail, and public green spaces introduce a level of walkability rarely associated with large-scale coastal developments. The effect is intentional, a place designed to function as both a private retreat and a social destination, where residents move seamlessly between beach, boat, and city.

The ambition is clear. Bahia Mar is not positioning itself as an addition to Fort Lauderdale’s skyline, but as a redefinition of it.

Rosewood Residences Hillsboro Beach illsboro Beach is one of South Florida’s rarest addresses.

The barrier island, known as “Millionaire’s Mile,” stretches between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, offering a level of privacy and serenity that feels increasingly uncommon along the coast.

It is here that Rosewood Residences Hillsboro Beach is redefining oceanfront living.

Developed by Related Group and Dezer Development, the project introduces the area’s first hospitality-branded residential experience, bringing the Rosewood brand’s distinctive philosophy of service and design to the barrier island.

At the pinnacle of the development sits the newly unveiled Penthouse Collection—a limited portfolio of 15 ultra-luxury residences positioned across the property’s two waterfront towers.

Oceanfront penthouses range from nearly 5,000 to 5,560 square feet with four- and five-bedroom layouts, while Intracoastal residences span up to 6,400 square feet with sunset-facing water views.

Each is defined by expansive terraces that extend living spaces outward. Some include plunge pools, outdoor kitchens, and open-air dining areas overlooking the water.

“Hillsboro Beach is one of the rare places where both ocean and Intracoastal living coexist,” said Nick Pérez of Related Group. “Ownership opportunities of this kind are exceptionally uncommon.”

Architecture by Arquitectonica and interiors by Studio Piet Boon emphasize light, texture, and proportion. Herringbone wood floors, sculpted European millwork, and Italian kitchens create an atmosphere of understated elegance.

The residences are part of a larger 92-home enclave set across nearly 12 acres with more than 1,200 feet of ocean and Intracoastal frontage.

Amenities reflect Rosewood’s philosophy of “A Sense of Place.” Residents will enjoy oceanfront and sunset pools, a wellness center with Hammam and hydrotherapy facilities, racquet sports courts, and a private marina. Here, luxury unfolds quietly—much like the barrier island itself.

The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Fort Lauderdale Beach Puttin' on the Ritz

Interiors by Dan Fink Studio embrace “quiet luxury”—wideplank white oak flooring, soft neutral tones, and natural materials that feel timeless rather than trend-driven.

“Today’s buyers are looking for residences that balance exceptional design with privacy and comfort,” said Jay Phillip Parker, CEO of Brokerage for Florida and President of Douglas Elliman Development Marketing. “The Ritz-Carlton Residences Fort Lauderdale Beach speaks directly to that demand.”

Between the towers, landscaped gardens surround a tranquil lap pool and separate leisure pool, creating a private courtyard atmosphere. Cabanas and an outdoor bar pavilion offer space for gatherings without overwhelming the setting.

Inside, amenities include a screening room, sports simulator, conference space, children’s playroom, and resident lounge with catering kitchen.

Ownership includes access to The Ritz-Carlton’s signature service—concierge coordination, lifestyle management, and curated travel experiences through Marriott’s ONVIA owner platform.

Here, luxury is not simply about the building. It is about the assurance that everything beyond your front door has already been considered.

ust after sunrise on Fort Lauderdale Beach, the shoreline briefly belongs to the early risers. Joggers pass along the sand, the umbrellas remain folded, and the horizon shifts between blue and silver.

It is in that quiet moment that The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Fort Lauderdale Beach makes the most sense.

Located between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, the boutique dual-tower development will rise 13 stories and include just 83 private residences.

The scale is intentional. Rather than competing with larger towers along the coast, the project emphasizes proportion, privacy, and design.

Developed by MICL and Admire Capital, the residences reflect Fort Lauderdale’s growing recognition as a national luxury destination—a city where waterfront living is increasingly defined by design and service as much as location.

Residences range from approximately 1,550 to 3,480 square feet with two- and three-bedroom layouts and dens. Six penthouses crown the towers, offering elevated ceilings and expansive terraces that capture sweeping views of both waterways.

Architecture by Garcia Stromberg takes inspiration from the site’s dual-water setting, positioning the towers to maximize light, breeze, and horizon lines.

Bungalow East A Softer Address on the Sand

efore Fort Lauderdale Beach became a skyline, it was a neighborhood.

On North Birch Road, that memory still lingers. Residents walk to coffee rather than summoning a valet. The Atlantic is close enough to hear at night, and the Intracoastal catches the late afternoon light just a few blocks away.

It is one of the rare places where the rhythm of the beach still feels personal.

78

LUXE 2026 | LMGFL.COM/LUXE

That sense of intimacy is precisely what defines Bungalow East.

The 14-story condominium, planned for a quiet stretch within North Beach Village, will introduce just 34 residences to the neighborhood—a deliberate counterpoint to the larger towers rising along the coastline.

In a market where luxury developments often emphasize scale, Bungalow East makes a quieter argument: fewer homes, more privacy, and a residential experience designed to feel like a private coastal retreat.

Credit Merrimac Ventures

Residences will range from approximately 2,100 to 2,800 square feet with three- and four-bedroom layouts, many offering flexible configurations such as den spaces or home offices. Two penthouses crown the building, each spanning roughly 4,000 square feet and featuring private rooftop decks designed for entertaining beneath open sky.

Behind the project is Merrimac Ventures, the family-led development firm that has helped shape Fort Lauderdale Beach for more than three decades. Long before the area’s luxury renaissance began, the Motwani family quietly assembled parcels along this stretch of sand, eventually transforming former motels into marquee properties such as the Four Seasons Hotel and Residences Fort Lauderdale and Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach.

For Merrimac, Bungalow East represents both a continuation and a culmination of that vision.

“Fort Lauderdale Beach’s transformation has been extraordinary,” said Dev Motwani, Co-Managing Partner of Merrimac Ventures. “While we’ve completed several luxury developments in the area over the years, we always felt this particular site deserved something thoughtful and intentional.”

Architecture by Swedroe Architecture embraces proportion and restraint rather than spectacle.

The building’s design emphasizes clean lines and natural light, allowing the surrounding water views to remain the focal point.

Inside, interiors by Adriana Hoyos Design Studio layer warm woods, neutral palettes, and refined materials that feel residential rather than theatrical. Private elevators open directly into each home, creating a sense of arrival that feels both discreet and personal.

Floor-to-ceiling glass doors frame views of both the Atlantic and Intracoastal, while expansive terraces extend the living space outdoors. Many homes include summer kitchens designed for evenings that begin with ocean breezes and end long after sunset.

The amenity program reflects the building’s philosophy of curated luxury. A resort-style pool deck with cabanas anchors the outdoor experience, while a wellness center includes massage rooms, sauna, steam, and cold plunge facilities.

Additional spaces—a yoga lawn, library lounge, and rooftop sunset terrace overlooking the Intracoastal—are designed to enhance daily life rather than overwhelm it.

In many ways, Bungalow East feels less like a new development and more like a return to the original spirit of Fort Lauderdale Beach: a place where luxury exists quietly, just steps from the water.

SMOOTHER SAILING AHEAD

At Bradford Marine, the most complicated part of yacht ownership is being rethought, bringing clarity and control to the process b y j e s s i c a g r av e s

here’s an old saying in boating: the two best days are the day you buy the boat and the day you sell it.

It’s often said in jest, but it lands for a reason. What happens in between, often on yachts stretching well beyond 150 feet and nearly half the length of a football field, is where the reality of ownership sets in.

“The craftsmanship in this industry has always been strong,” says John Kelly. “What we set out to improve wa s the experience that surrounds it.”

This is not the Bradford many remember.

It’s a different operation entirely.

In 2019, father and son John and Michael Kelly acquired the historic yard, originally built in the 1960s, and began expanding its footprint with adjacent properties, steadily evolving it into a more modern, full-service facility. They came to it not as industry insiders, but as yacht owners who had experienced the process firsthand.

“We approached it from the perspective of a yacht owner,” says Michael Kelly. “What stood out to us was that even when the craftsmanship was good, the overall experience could be unnecessarily difficult.”

It was a different lens, one that ultimately reframed the business: two yacht owners approaching a familiar industry experience from an entirely different perspective.

“Projects often felt fragmented,” John Kelly says.

“Communication wasn’t always clear or proactive.

Timelines could drift without much transparency.”

Then came the sticker shock. “The final service cost was never what we were told upon arrival.”

The work itself was rarely the issue. It was everything around it. So they rebuilt the structure around the work.

Today, nearly 200 full-time employees operate within a coordinated system that brings project management, skilled trades, and technical expertise under one roof. Carpenters, welders, fiberglass specialists, mechanical and electrical teams, plumbers, propeller experts, and canvas and teak craftsmen all work together.

Dedicated project managers guide each job from start to finish, overseeing scheduling, financials, vendor coordination, and the day-to-day details that typically fall back on owners or captains.

“At the end of the day, yacht owners don’t want to manage a refit,” says Michael Kelly. “They want one team that can handle everything and deliver on what was promised.”

The Bradford Marine model shifts the burden away from the owner.

“A lot of yards can do the work,” he says. “What’s harder to deliver is consistency, accountability, and communication throughout the process. That’s where we’ve focused.”

That level of control carries real weight when the asset in question is valued at millions of dollars, with systems and engineering that rival those of small commercial vessels.

When something breaks, delays are not just inconvenient. They bring everything to a halt.

Michael Kelly learned that firsthand.

“We had an owner who had just taken delivery of a 96-foot European-built yacht and was scheduling a holiday cruise with his family,” he says. “There was a part we needed to make the yacht fully operational, but it was a holiday overseas, and reaching the right contacts quickly wasn’t easy. I remember thinking I’d get on a plane myself if that’s what it took.”

The experience stayed with him.

“It’s everything,” he adds. “Being able to do all of this in one facility is very rare these days.”

For those advising clients at the highest levels, that consistency carries weight.

Scott Roberton, Vice President of Yachts at MarineMax, has spent more than three decades guiding owners through acquisition and long-term ownership.

“A customer’s experience typically begins with estimates and expectations and is ultimately evaluated based on performance,” he says. “Bradford has elevated the level of attention given to what is promised to the client, ensuring that estimates remain aligned.”

The yard has become a place people return to, captains, crew, owners, contractors, many of the same faces, project after project.

“Being family-run fundamentally shapes how we think about the business,” John Kelly says. “We’re not managing Bradford to a quarterly timeline—we’re building it to last.”

With ownership on site, decisions do not wait. Problems are addressed in real time. Expansion continues, from dredging to accommodate deeper drafts to removing older structures to allow for larger vessels in the water. The operation also extends beyond South Florida, with a Bahamas location that allows projects to continue seamlessly for vessels moving through the region.

What has taken shape is not just a larger facility, but a more deliberate one.

“At the end of the day, this business is about trust,” says Michael Kelly.

“If you do what you say you’re going to do, people come back.”

“That’s when we realized how important it is to have direct relationships with manufacturers,” he says. “When you can communicate directly with the people behind the systems and equipment, you’re able to respond faster and keep owners moving.”

What began as a workaround became a strategy. Those relationships now extend globally, allowing Bradford to move more quickly when timing matters most.

But speed is only part of it. It is the relationships they are focused on.

“Captains are the ones who decide where these boats go,” Michael Kelly says. “They’re the ones managing the projects day to day, and they’re the ones who come back if the experience works.”

That understanding shapes how the yard operates, not just as a service provider, but as a place built on repeat relationships.

Captain Jesse Clinton, who oversees a fleet of vessels and has returned to Bradford for years of service and refit work, sees that difference firsthand. For him, consistency is not a talking point; it's a requirement.

“Customer service trumps all,” he says. “The ability to build a relationship where both parties know what to expect and have their core values aligned as it relates to quality and accountability…that’s a lost art in the marine industry.”

That alignment is what keeps him coming back.

“The fact that the owners are on site matters,” Clinton says. “When something comes up, you’re not waiting on layers of approval.

Decisions get made, and there’s accountability in that.”

For a captain responsible for keeping multiple vessels on schedule, that kind of access is not just helpful, it is essential.

SAFARI SOJOURN

GIRAFFE MANOR DELIVERS THE GOODS

or travelers seeking wildlife encounters with a touch of whimsy, Giraffe Manor, part of The Safari Collection, remains one of Africa’s most enchanting stays. Set within an indigenous forest in Nairobi’s Langata suburb, the estate is home to resident giraffes who roam freely and have been known to poke their heads through open windows in greeting.

The lodge recently reopened with thoughtful additions, including the Finch Hatton Family Suite, which features two en-suite bedrooms and a balcony designed for close-up encounters with its long-necked neighbors.

Breakfast unfolds in the redesigned Garden Manor, where three-sided panoramic views set the stage for early-morning giraffe visits. The Orchid House, home to 150 orchids, offers a serene setting for reading, meditation, or candlelit private dinners.

Elsewhere, a walk-in wine cellar highlights Africa’s finest vintages with guided tastings, while The Garden Coffee Experience immerses guests in Kenya’s rich coffee culture.

Access to The Retreat, a wellness sanctuary with a heated infinity pool overlooking the sanctuary, rounds out the stay. Spa treatments here are as restorative as the setting itself. ✽

JETSET CROWD ABERCROMBIE & KENT nner circles, private jets, and access that feels genuinely rarefied. Abercrombie & Kent set the gold standard in African safaris more than 60 years ago, and today it brings that same expertise to the skies with its Small Jet Journeys around the world. By chartering private aircraft, A&K travelers bypass the usual airport grind and move seamlessly between destinations that would otherwise require complicated connections. The experience is intimate by design and led by guides who know the cultural and historical nuance of each stop.

Our pick: Spain and Morocco. In

Spain, guests receive privileged access to the Alhambra, including specially arranged entry into areas typically closed to the public. From there, a private flight to Morocco leads to a camel arrival at A&K’s desert camp, where lantern light flickers across the dunes. Days unfold in the labyrinthine souks with an insider who knows which treasures to seek out and how to negotiate, or via a sidecar adventure through cinematic landscapes.

Throughout, the itinerary traces the cultural throughlines connecting the two countries, creating a narrative as compelling as the scenery. ✽
