here’s no slowing Fort Lauderdale’s meteoric ascent. Fueled by an in ux of new residents from across the country and a growing class of global buyers seeking the ease of coastal living with big-city sophistication, the city has become one of Florida’s most dynamic luxury real estate markets. Tower cranes now redefine the skyline as the waterfront thrives, re ecting a surge in demand for highdesign, full-service residences. Amid this surge, one project stands out as both symbol and statement: Viceroy Residences Fort Lauderdale, a 45-story condominium by Na ali Group currently in pre-construction and set to debut in 2029. The development marks the rst Viceroy-branded property in the city—and an evolution of the city's identity from casual coastal retreat to international destination for architecture, art, and lifestyle.
For Naftali Group, renowned for its design-driven developments in New York, Miami, and Los Angeles, the collaboration with Viceroy represents more than a new address. “Na ali Group has a proven track record of delivering exceptional, design-driven projects. Our partnership with Viceroy is a natural t, as we share a commitment to creating extraordinary living experiences for our residents. Viceroy Residences Fort Lauderdale will embody this collaboration by o ering a meticulously cra ed building with high-quality residences and world-class amenities in Downtown Fort Lauderdale’s Flagler Village neighborhood,” says Danielle Na ali, Executive Vice President of Marketing & Design.
Designed by Arquitectonica with interiors by Rockwell Group, the Viceroy’s architecture tells a story of movement and light. Champagne bronze bands ripple across the façade, echoing the city’s kinetic energy. Curved balconies so en the tower’s verticality, catching the glow of sunrise and the shimmer of evening skies. Upon arrival, residents will be greeted by a landscaped plaza and a soaring, doubleheight lobby that balances grandeur with intimacy. Inside, 370 residences—ranging from studios to four-bedroom penthouses—feature open layouts, oor-to-ceiling windows, and expansive terraces that dissolve the line between indoors and out.
Every material has been chosen with precision: Italian cabinetry, quartz countertops, and spa-like bathrooms lined in marble establish a quiet luxury that feels at once timeless and tactile. It’s the kind of design that doesn’t need to announce itself—it reveals itself.
Set between Las Olas Boulevard and Flagler Village, the address connects residents to the best of both worlds. Las Olas continues to de ne Fort Lauderdale’s cosmopolitan core, lined with galleries, boutiques, and lively restaurants. Flagler, meanwhile, brings a creative pulse with its murals, microbreweries, and cultural events. Together, they form the city’s new heartbeat—a fusion of sophistication and artistic

edge that re ects the evolving identity of Fort Lauderdale itself. When complete, Viceroy Residences Fort Lauderdale will o er more than 30,000 square feet of amenities, conceived as an extension of modern life. Two pool decks cater to distinct moods: one private and tranquil for owners, the other social and vibrant. High above the skyline, the 46th- oor sky lounge and terrace promise a panoramic view of the coastline that feels cinematic at any hour. Wellness is a centerpiece, with yoga and boxing studios, spa suites, saunas, steam rooms, and a juice bar designed to nourish both body and mind. Throughout the building, thoughtful spaces invite connection. A co-working lounge, screening room, and karaoke bar blend productivity with play, while families will nd dedicated children’s spaces designed for creativity and comfort. Social life unfolds naturally at the Port Lounge & Bar, alfresco dining pavilions, and the botanical garden lounge—a lush retreat of calm in the heart of the city. True to its heritage, Viceroy brings hospitality to every detail. Residents enjoy services that anticipate every need, from pantry stocking and oral deliveries to in-residence dining, pet care, and housekeeping—each handled with the brand’s hallmark discretion. Through the Viceroy DISCOVERY Loyalty Program, owners also unlock privileges across 500 hotels in 78 countries, gaining access to bespoke travel, spa, and cultural experiences that extend the sense of home around the world.
Life at Viceroy is designed for those who move seamlessly between ambition and ease. Morning might begin with co ee on a sunlit terrace, followed by yoga in the wellness studio or a quiet swim in the private pool. A ernoon brings focus in the coworking lounge, framed by water and light. By evening, the Port Lounge beckons for cocktails before dinner on Las Olas—or perhaps a private screening with friends under the city’s glowing skyline. Here, luxury isn’t about abundance. It’s about intention.
With projects spanning Santa Monica, Los Cabos, St. Lucia, and Portugal’s Algarve, Viceroy has rede ned experiential living in the world’s most sought-a er destinations. In Fort Lauderdale, that legacy continues in partnership with Na ali Group. “Through Viceroy Residences, we’re not just creating homes. We’re creating experiences that re ect the beauty, vibrancy, and future of this city,” says Danielle Na ali.
Still in pre-construction and scheduled for completion in 2029, Viceroy Residences Fort Lauderdale will stand as both anchor and aspiration—a new benchmark for luxury in a city whose momentum feels unstoppable.
It’s not simply another high-rise. It’s a vision of Fort Lauderdale’s future, expressed in glass, bronze, and possibility. viceroyfortlauderdale.com

RUNWAY 84 HAS REIGNED OVER FORT LAUDERDALE’S DINING SCENE FOR MORE THAN FORTY YEARS, REFINED, RADIANT, AND UNMISTAKABLY TIMELESS.
, and then there are rituals.
At Anthony’s Runway 84, the ritual begins the moment you step through the curved entryway and the air hums with the sound of a live band. Low lighting glows against brass accents, martinis arrive perfectly chilled, and Sinatra croons from the bandstand. It’s an atmosphere that feels cinematic, somewhere between a Scorsese film and a South Florida fairytale, and for more than four decades, it has defined Fort Lauderdale’s idea of a perfect night out.
The supper club’s blend of glamour and warmth is as carefully calibrated as the signature veal chop that leaves the kitchen in a cloud of vodka-sauce steam. Every plate pays homage to the red-sauce roots that built the place: escarole and beans like Nonna used to make, silky linguine with clams, and chicken parm crisped just right. As founder Anthony Bruno says, “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. We try not to muck it up.”
Bruno still works the room five or six nights a week, tasting sauces, greeting guests, and keeping the kitchen honest. “I like the action,” he says. “I like to be there.” It’s part of what makes the restaurant feel alive; nothing is left to autopilot. Regulars who’ve been coming for decades still expect to see him shaking hands, and they do.
That spirit carries through the menu’s evolution. Marc Falsetto, who helped usher in a modern sensibility, describes the balance they
strive for. “It’s old school and new school together,” he says. “That’s what makes Runway unique.” His Veal Chop Danielle, a bold, reimagined take on veal Parmesan with spicy vodka sauce, mozzarella, peas, and prosciutto, was once an offmenu experiment and has since become a cult favorite.
Additions like a roasted rack of lamb and heritage pork chop with vinegar peppers join the classics without ever overshadowing them. “Anthony and Pat have the history and pedigree,” Falsetto adds. “I focus on innovation. You have to keep moving, even in a place built on tradition.”
The bar reflects the same polish. A martini remains the unofficial starter course, but Italian spritzes and amaro flights hint at the next generation. The beverage program even earned recognition from Wine Spectator, no small feat in a city where restaurants often come and go with the tide.
Partner Pat Marzano credits the combination of music and mixology for the restaurant’s enduring energy. “The menu is phenomenal, but what really sets us apart is the music,” he says. “I’ve traveled and never seen a program like this. It adds to that Rat Pack, old-world environment.”
That live-music heartbeat transforms dinner into theater once the band kicks into gear. It’s a nod to the Copa Cabana scene that inspired the restaurant’s multimillion-dollar renovation in 2023, a refresh





that married nostalgic glamour with modern edge. “We wanted every guest to feel like Henry Hill walking into the Copa,” Falsetto says. The result: one of Broward County’s toughest reservations, often booked weeks in advance, with a crowd that spans generations.
Behind the theater, the hospitality is as refined as the cuisine. Bruno insists on hiring people who have “natural hospitality in their soul.” Many staff members have been there for decades, creating a rare continuity that guests feel instantly. General Manager Joe Alfano, with experience in New York and Las Vegas, leads a team that delivers warmth and precision in equal measure. “People buy from people they like,” Bruno says. “That’s in every business. We’ve been able to sustain because of that.”
Part of the restaurant’s nostalgic charm is that guests are still encouraged to dress for the occasion. In a city known for its easygoing beach style, the business casual dress code feels refreshingly elevated. Jackets aren’t required, but shorts are not permitted—a subtle reminder that some nights are still worth getting dressed up for.
It’s more than a restaurant; it’s a living piece of Fort Lauderdale history. Locals bring visitors to show them what the city truly tastes like: bold, timeless, and full of heart. Families who once celebrated anniversaries here now return with their children and grandchildren, ensuring the tradition continues. Even as the seasons change, the band still plays, the lights still glow, and the dining room still buzzes with laughter. As Falsetto puts it, “It’s the old school and the new school together, and that’s what makes Runway the most unique place in town.” In a world of fleeting openings and flash-in-the-pan concepts, Runway 84 proves that some things only get better with age. ■


, Chef Angelo
Elia has been a de ning presence in South Florida’s dining scene. His agship restaurant, Casa D’Angelo in Fort Lauderdale, opened with a promise of authentic Italian cooking rooted in tradition yet attuned to evolving tastes. Today, with locations in Boca Raton and Aventura, Casa D’Angelo remains a beloved destination where consistency, warmth, and an award-winning wine list keep guests returning again and again.
Elia’s story begins in Salerno, Italy, where food was always a family a air. “Growing up and watching my mother cook, making fresh pasta and sauces from scratch still in uences the way I cook today,” he re ects. Those formative experiences gave him a foundation he has never strayed from: respect for ingredients, simplicity with soul, and food as a vehicle for connection.
When Elia opened Casa D’Angelo in 1998, South Florida’s Italian dining landscape was far narrower than it is now. “Cooking today, there is a wider variety of Italian ingredients available for me to utilize than 27 years ago,” he says. With that expanded palette, his mission has become innovation with integrity—reinterpreting traditional favorites without losing sight of authenticity.
For Elia, the guiding principle has never changed: “It’s all about the ingredients,” so sourcing means more than signing o on an order sheet. He travels frequently, exploring markets, vineyards, and distilleries across Europe and beyond to discover ingredients not commonly found locally.
“I have always believed that staying inspired means staying curious,” he explains. That curiosity shapes everything from the seasonal specials to the nearly 80-page wine list that has grown from a single sheet into one of South Florida’s most respected collections.
Casa D’Angelo quickly earned a reputation as a “specialoccasion” restaurant, a place guests return to celebrate milestones. Yet its enduring success lies in the balance between comfort and surprise. “Our menu has not changed much as far as Italian cuisine goes. Guests are returning for the consistency they love. We balance tradition with specials— new cuts of meat, unique sh—that keep the experience fresh.”
The wine program is equally integral to the Casa D’Angelo identity. Guided by dedication and deep research, Elia and his
team curate more than 1,000 selections, from undiscovered gems to storied vintages. Maintaining strong ties with distributors ensures the list remains dynamic. “It takes knowledge and passion,” he says, “but also relationships.”
Each Casa D’Angelo location re ects its neighborhood while staying true to the brand’s DNA. Fort Lauderdale has a local, community-driven spirit, while Boca and Aventura draw slightly di erent demographics. “We cater to each location while never compromising our roots,” Elia explains.
Elia’s devotion has earned him honors including Florida Trend’s Golden Spoon Hall of Fame and Wine Spectator’s Grand Award. “Receiving these special awards is emotional and rewarding,” he says. “They remind us we are contributing to the community and creating experiences our guests feel proud to be part of.”
Expansion, however, comes with challenges. Elia admits the most di cult part of growing beyond one restaurant has been maintaining consistency—not just in food, but in atmosphere and hospitality. “Guests come for the warmth and the ambience as much as the cuisine. That means building a strong team that understands my values.”
In an era dominated by celebrity chefs and corporate hospitality groups, Elia remains grounded. “One of the greatest lessons I have learned is that authenticity and consistency always win. Guests can feel when a place is built on heart and intention.”
Though Casa D’Angelo once extended its reach to Aspen and the Bahamas, those ventures closed a er logistical challenges and the pandemic. Today, Elia is focused rmly on South Florida, though he leaves the door
open: “My motto is ‘never say never.’” In the meantime, he is investing energy into remodeling and reenergizing his current restaurants.
For Elia, community has always been as important as cuisine. He regularly participates in food and wine festivals and charity dinners, viewing his role as one of connection and responsibility. “As chefs and restaurateurs, we are in a privileged position to bring people together and give back to the community that supports us.”
That sense of place has also shaped Fort Lauderdale’s dining culture. While Miami grabs headlines with ashy celebrity-backed concepts, Elia believes Fort Lauderdale thrives on loyalty and community. “Since we opened almost 30 years ago, our role has been to show that an independent, family-run Italian restaurant can stand the test of time.”
Despite his rigorous schedule, Elia remains energized by the daily creative demands of the industry. “Every day brings a new opportunity to create something memorable,” he says. At home, his joy is simpler—making fresh pasta or sh for his family, especially when his wife joins him in the kitchen. Were he not a chef, he imagines he’d have been an architect, a role that aligns with his love of design and building.
Mentorship is also central to his philosophy. Elia has long believed in leading by example. “Excellence is not achieved through shortcuts, but through consistency, curiosity, and heart.”
A er 25 years, he remains as passionate as ever. “I love what I do, and a er so many years, I’m still fully in the game.”
For Chef Angelo Elia, Casa D’Angelo is more than a restaurant; it is a living legacy of tradition, innovation, and community—cra ed one plate, one bottle, and one guest connection at a time.


Despite his rigorous schedule, Elia remains energized by the daily creative demands of the industry.


dining for a generation—new sophisticated, seductive, and unapologetically bold.

THERE WAS A TIME when dining was more than a meal, it was theater. When elegance meant more than a price tag and nightlife was de ned not by volume but by atmosphere. That golden age is returning to Fort Lauderdale, and its curtain rises in early fall 2026 at Caviar Club.
Conceived by hospitality entrepreneur Marc Falsetto, Caviar Club is a bold expression of maximalist luxury where excess is the aesthetic and every detail invites delight. Falsetto, founder of Falsetto Hospitality, is already known for shaping South Florida’s culinary landscape with concepts such as Runway 84, Tacocra Taqueria, Pizza Cra Pizzeria, and Apothecary 330. With Caviar Club, he is taking things to the next level, creating a destination where ne dining collides with high fashion, live entertainment, and unapologetic glamour.
“Las Olas Boulevard has always been the heart of Fort Lauderdale,” Falsetto says. “For all its energy and history, it has been missing something truly high-end, sexy, and sophisticated. Caviar Club lls that void. It is the kind of place you would expect in Palm Beach, Miami, or New York, but it belongs here.”
Like the Polo Bar in Manhattan reimagined for a new generation, Caviar Club embraces bold pattern, rich color, and old-world extravagance. Dolce & Gabbana meets Scalamandré with zebra prints, lacquered wood, and jewel-tone velvet illuminated by moody art-deco lighting. It is deliberately theatrical, not minimalist. Every corner hums with sensual detail.
“All ’80s music, curated playlists, and that glamorous maximalist vibe,” Falsetto says. “It’s unapologetically over the top, not for everyone, and we are okay with that.”
To realize that vision, Falsetto partnered with Garrett Singer Studio, the acclaimed New York design house behind Major Food Group’s Torrisi and ZZ’s. The result is part supper club, part private members’ lounge, part modern fantasy. Caviar Club is more than a restaurant. It is an experience, an evening that evolves as the night unfolds. Early on, guests settle into a dim, cinematic space where martinis arrive icecold and conversation lls the air. By nine, the lighting deepens and a live DJ transforms the energy from sultry dinner to lively social scene.
“It’s not a nightclub and not just a restaurant,” Falsetto explains. “It’s the full entertainment experience, with music,
service, design, and avor all working together.” Ten-thousand-dollar bottles of wine line the cellar, ready for those who view indulgence as art. The crowd will be as stylish as the space, a mix of Fort Lauderdale locals, Palm Beach regulars, Miami tastemakers, and travelers chasing that next unforgettable night.
Though caviar is its muse, Caviar Club is far from one-note. “It’s a high-energy American restaurant and steakhouse with European re nement,” Falsetto says. “Caviar appears throughout the menu in playful, unexpected ways, from traditional service to creative pairings that surprise guests.”
Service recalls the golden era of ne dining: captains performing tableside rituals, Dover Sole lleted before your eyes, wagyu French dips with au jus poured from silver pots, and towering seafood platters arriving to applause.
“It’s about romance and occasion,” Falsetto says. “Dining should make you feel something. Every moment should be worth dressing up for.”
The beverage program continues that story of decadence and precision. More than 300 wine labels span French icons, prestige champagnes, and American classics. The cocktail list is martini-driven, timeless, and tactile with icy drinks poured tableside, crystal stemware catching the light, and awless execution in every sip.
Falsetto sees Caviar Club as part of a cultural shi .
“The city’s demo is changing,” he says. “There’s a growing appetite for sophistication, people who love design, who appreciate service, who want a destination.”
“Las Olas already has incredible restaurants, but Caviar Club introduces a new level of luxury,” he adds. “It’s bringing Palm Beach, Miami, and Manhattan energy to Fort Lauderdale.”
For Falsetto, this is more than a project.
It is a personal statement about where hospitality is headed. “I’ve always been inspired by the things that make people feel,” he says.
“Design, music, service — they tell a story. Caviar Club is that story brought to life.”
He pauses before adding, “Luxury. Glamour. Indulgence. It’s the golden age of dining, reborn on Las Olas Boulevard.”

“All ’80s music,playlists,curated and that maximalistglamorousvibe.”
From Fort Lauderdale to Miami, Related Group’s latest collaborations with the world’s leading architects and designers are shaping a new era of residential artistry.
FOR NEARLY HALF A CENTURY , Related Group has de ned the architecture of modern luxury. Founded by Jorge M. Pérez and now led alongside his sons, Jon Paul and Nick, the company has built more than homes—it has sculpted a vision of how people aspire to live. Each project is a study in experience and place, guided by design integrity, artistry, and a belief that great architecture should stir emotion as much as admiration.
Across South Florida, that belief is manifesting in a new generation of residential masterpieces. From the evolving edge of Fort Lauderdale to the serene coastlines of Hillsboro Beach and Hollywood, and the cosmopolitan pulse of Miami. Related’s current portfolio represents a study in contrasts— ve properties, each distinct in voice yet united by a shared vocabulary of design, artistry, and aspiration.



Where the Marina Meets the Sky
to Fort Lauderdale Beach, an icon is being reimagined. The St. Regis Resort & Residences, Bahia Mar will transform the city’s most storied marina—home to the world’s largest in-water boat show—into a worldclass destination for living, leisure, and design.
Developed by Related Group with Tate Capital and Rok Acquisitions in partnership with Marriott International, the $2 billion project is now in active pre-construction, with sales underway and an architectural vision led by Arquitectonica and interiors by Tara Bernerd & Partners. When complete, it will include two 23-story residential towers, a flagship St. Regis hotel, private beach club, curated dining, and a 250-slip marina accommodating yachts up to 350 feet.
Each residence is designed as a sanctuary of calm. Private elevator foyers open to sweeping glass terraces, and interiors feature natural stone, warm timber, and chrome details reminiscent of a bespoke yacht. Every tower will offer 35,000 square feet of amenities—from a full spa and fitness pavilion to pickleball courts and children’s spaces—along with the brand’s signature butler service and timeless attention to detail.
Bahia Mar is scheduled to unfold in two phases, with completion expected later this decade. “It represents the evolution of Fort Lauderdale as a global design destination,” says Jon Paul Pérez. “Every element is intentional, every detail connected to the water and the life it inspires.”
Grace on the Horizon
, north on one of Broward County’s most coveted stretches of sand, the Waldorf Astoria Residences Pompano Beach is taking shape. The project broke ground in April 2025, marking the legendary brand’s first stand-alone residential tower—and its debut in Broward County.
Developed by Related Group, Merrimac Ventures, and Hilton, the 29-story property is already more than 70 percent sold. Designed by Nichols Architects with interiors by BAMO and landscapes by Enea, it channels the quiet grandeur that has defined the Waldorf Astoria name for over a century.
The tower’s ninety-two residences—ranging from 2,100 to 6,100 square feet—will introduce a new vernacular of coastal refinement. Curving glass façades draw in light from the Atlantic, while interiors pair ivory stone with warm oak and bronze. Residents will enjoy a private spa, oceanfront pool deck, wine-tasting salon, and owners’ lounge, all managed with the discreet service for which the brand is known. Completion is expected in 2027. “This is about legacy, not spectacle,” a Related executive notes. “It’s an interpretation of luxury that’s more personal—more human.”


Modern Ease by the Shore
, on Hollywood’s tranquil waterfront, Icon Beach Waterfront Residences marks a new era of approachable luxury. Sales launched in March 2024, and the project is now in pre-construction. Developed by Related Group and BH Group with interiors by Meyer Davis Studio, the development will comprise 350 residences ranging from 948 to 2,580 square feet. Each home is envisioned as a sanctuary of modern simplicity. Soft neutral tones, organic textures, and imported finishes create an atmosphere that feels effortless yet refined. Residents will have access to 30,000 square feet of amenities, including a private beach club, wellness center, outdoor cinema, and marina, all complemented by curated contemporary art from the Jorge M. Pérez Collection. Priced from $850,000 to $2.8 million, Icon Beach speaks to a new generation of design-driven homeowners drawn to authenticity over ostentation. As Jon Paul Pérez describes it, “It’s about refinement that feels natural—the kind of sophistication that never has to announce itself.”


Where the Marina Meets the Sky
of coastline known as Millionaires’ Mile, Rosewood Residences Hillsboro Beach is quietly redefining what oceanfront living can be. The project secured construction financing in late 2024 and is now under active development, with completion anticipated in 2026. Developed by Related Group, Dezer Development, and Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, the ten-story beachfront tower and accompanying villa residences will comprise 92 homes—each designed to feel like a bespoke seaside retreat. Arquitectonica’s
architecture and Studio Piet Boon’s interiors emphasize light, proportion, and tactile warmth: travertine floors, pale oak millwork, and expansive glazing that frames both the Atlantic and Intracoastal.
Residents will have access to a private spa and salon, dual fitness studios, yoga room, racquet courts, and 14 boat slips along the bay. With over half the residences already sold, Rosewood Hillsboro has become a statement in understatement—crafted for those who value privacy, precision, and permanence.

The Pinnacle of Urban Elegance
neighborhood,
The St. Regis Residences has already broken ground, ushering the brand’s legendary aesthetic into one of the city’s most re ned enclaves. Developed by Related Group and Integra Investments, with architecture by Robert A. M. Stern Architects (RAMSA) and interiors by Rockwell Group, the tower will rise y stories above Biscayne Bay, its stepped geometry and limestone detailing recalling the grandeur of New York’s Gilded Age while embracing Miami’s modern luminosity. Construction began in late 2024, with 65 percent of residences already under contract and delivery anticipated in 2027. Each of the 152
homes—including penthouses and sky villas—has been conceived as an architectural statement, balancing intimacy and grandeur. Expansive terraces capture panoramic bay views, while interiors blend marble, wood, and bespoke millwork in a palette both rich and restrained. The amenities, totaling more than 50,000 square feet, will include a private restaurant and cognac bar, spa and fitness club, resort-style pool deck, library, and a discreet butler program that extends the St. Regis tradition of tailored service. “This project embodies Miami’s confidence,” says Nick Pérez. “It’s classical proportion meeting contemporary rhythm.”




developments runs a single idea: architecture as emotion, design as narrative. Related Group’s collaborations with the world’s foremost architects and designers are as much about creating culture as constructing buildings. Each project—whether in preconstruction or rising skyward—embodies the company’s belief that luxury begins with intention. For the Pérez family, art and architecture have always been intertwined. Related’s projects o en double as living galleries, showcasing works from the Jorge M. Pérez Contemporary Art Collection, while every development is conceived as a re ection of its surroundings. “Design is how we communicate our values,” says Jorge Pérez. “It’s not about what we build, but how it makes people feel.”


PIER SIXTY-SIX HAS BEEN REBORN AS FORT LAUDERDALE’S MOST AMBITIOUS ADDRESS—WHERE ARCHITECTURE, ART, AND OCEAN CONVERGE.


Intracoastal. Sunlight slips across the rippling water, catching the white hulls of moored yachts and the spire of a building that has defined Fort Lauderdale’s skyline for more than half a century. This is Pier Sixty-Six—an icon reborn.
Once a Phillips 66 fuel dock in the 1950s and later a celebrity haunt in the 1960s, the site has always been part of the city’s maritime soul. Now, following a $1 billion transformation by Tavistock Development Company, the 32-acre property has become something more: a living harbor that unites private residences, a five-star resort, and an international marina into a single, walkable waterfront community.
“Pier Sixty-Six is the embodiment of Tavistock Group’s vision realized,” says Charles B. Lewis, Senior Managing Director for Tavistock Group. “Our world-class resort, marina, and promenade welcome all to experience the very best of Fort Lauderdale and its legendary waterfront.”
The experience begins before you step inside. The approach curves through tropical landscaping and arrives beneath the canopy of a massive banyan tree—an icon of the original property and now the heart of its reimagined entrance. The circular motor court was built around this living landmark, its broad roots and sculptural branches shading the valet drive as attendants move with practiced ease. Through the portecochère, glass walls reveal a shimmer of water beyond, the marina glittering just past the lobby. The arrival feels ceremonial yet effortless, bridging nostalgia and modernity in one graceful motion.
That sense of continuity runs throughout the property, from the revived rotating tower lounge and 325-room resort to the 164-slip superyacht marina and 88 private residences overlooking the city’s nautical heartbeat. Fort Lauderdale has long been called the Venice of America, but Pier Sixty-Six makes a compelling case that it’s entering its Monaco era.
For decades, Pier Sixty-Six has symbolized Fort Lauderdale’s nautical glamour. Now, for the first time, that legacy extends to private ownership. Eighty-eight residences across four buildings—Indigo, Azul, and two Resort Residences—translate the property’s maritime heritage into architectural form. Designed by Garciastromberg,
the structures curve like waves, with glass façades that mirror the changing light over the Intracoastal.
Inside, the homes are sanctuaries of calm and craftsmanship. Ten-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, and open-plan layouts frame sweeping views of the Atlantic and the marina below. Kitchens feature Italian cabinetry, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, and quartz countertops, while deep corner terraces invite dining and lounging in the salt air. In Indigo and Azul, each residence includes a private heated plunge pool—a first for Fort Lauderdale condominium design.
“The energy is palpable as Pier Sixty-Six welcomes its first residents home,” says Amy Ballon, director of sales for Tavistock Development Company. “This is more than real estate; it’s a front-row seat to a lifestyle people have imagined for years.”
Residences begin around $3.85 million, with the Indigo penthouse setting a Broward County record at $14.5 million. Each interior is delivered designer-ready, serving as a blank canvas for collectors, travelers, and yacht owners who see Pier Sixty-Six not just as a home but as a legacy investment.
Ownership also grants access to The Club at Pier Sixty-Six, a private social and wellness enclave that includes cabanas, a fitness studio, and members-only dining rooms such as the Orchid and Garden Rooms. The Club’s atmosphere feels more like a coastal retreat than an amenity—an extension of home where connection happens naturally.
Just beyond, the marina defines daily life. Stretching more than 5,000 linear feet and offering 164 slips for vessels up to 400 feet, it ranks among the largest superyacht marinas on the Eastern Seaboard. Located inside Port Everglades with no bridge restrictions, it allows residents to go from terrace to open ocean in minutes.
Designated as a Foreign Trade Zone, the marina accommodates foreign-flagged vessels for sale and display within U.S. waters, a rare advantage for international owners. From sunrise to dusk, the docks pulse with movement—the gleam of chrome, the hush of engines, the interplay of light and reflection. “This is the new gateway to Fort Lauderdale’s waterfront future,” says Colm O’Callaghan, Vice President and Managing Director at Pier Sixty-Six. “The marina is both an amenity and an identity—it connects every facet of life here.”
Residents and guests mingle along the 32,000-squarefoot promenade lined with restaurants, terraces, and yacht offices. The forthcoming reopening of Pelican Landing, a dockside favorite, will anchor the promenade once more—bringing conversation, cocktails, and ocean air together at the edge of the water.
The reimagined Pier Sixty-Six Resort forms the heart of the property, its architecture and interiors conceived

by Jeffrey Beers International and HKS.
The 325 guest rooms and suites open to balconies drenched in sea and sky, merging coastal serenity with modern design.
At its summit, the legendary Pier Top lounge turns once more. Originally unveiled in 1965, the rotating bar offers 360-degree views of the Atlantic, the skyline, and the glittering marina below. For residents, it feels both nostalgic and new—a neighborhood lounge suspended in the clouds.
The resort includes 40,000 square feet of event space, from grand ballrooms to intimate boardrooms, hosting everything from weddings to yachting galas. Beginning in 2025, it will also serve as a new venue for the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, welcoming the Superyacht Village and integrating the Pier Sixty-Six Marina into the global FLIBS experience. Despite its scale, the atmosphere remains personal; landscaped pathways weave between the hotel, residences, and
waterfront, allowing guests to move from terrace to café to dock without ever feeling apart from home.
Evenings here carry a quiet electricity—the shimmer of moored yachts, the hum of conversation, the slow rotation of the Pier Top overhead. Whether as resident or guest, you are part of something larger, a shared rhythm that defines the Fort Lauderdale waterfront.
Few places weave wellness into daily life as seamlessly as Pier SixtySix. The 13,000-square-foot Zenova Spa & Wellness is both refuge and ritual, blending modern technology with ancient therapeutic traditions. Its signature Via Aquae circuit guides guests through four sensory zones: a ceremonial sauna led by a trained Sauna-Meister performing rhythmic Aufguss rituals, the region’s first snow room cooled to 14 degrees Fahrenheit, sensory showers infused with essential oils, and a vitality pool calibrated for deep restoration. “Our


vision was to create an immersive haven where wellbeing is the priority,” says Linda Higgs, Director of Spa & Wellness. “From the first scent of aromatic oils to the final moment of reflection, Zenova nurtures both body and mind.”
A dozen restaurants and lounges trace a path through global flavor, led by Tavistock’s Michelin-starred Culinary Director Chef Freddy Money and Executive Chef Aldo Novoa.
Pier Top headlines the collection, its cinematic skyline views and mid-century design transforming dining into performance. The menu is indulgent yet classic—caviar pie, truffled deviled eggs, and crisp martinis that recall the glamour of another era.
Calusso celebrates the romance of the French and Italian Rivieras with tableside seafood and
handmade pastas, while Sotogrande captures the warmth of Southern Spain and the Eastern Mediterranean, serving saffron-infused dishes meant for sharing.
By day, Garni hums under glass skylights as an all-day brunch café with crepes, pastries, and fresh juices. Saltbreeze, the family pool café, pairs Latin flavor with the area’s most impressive tequila and agave selection. As day turns to evening, the adults-only Nectar Room takes on a seductive glow with Asian-inspired bites, rum-forward cocktails, and the exclusive Sushi by Bou omakase—a 17-course tasting already considered among the region’s most sought-after.
Elate Market Café greets early risers with espresso and pastries, Windows on 66 revives the spirit of the original lobby bar with a ginand-vodka-forward cocktail list, and Sweet 66 adds whimsy with handmade confections inspired by tropical fruit. Later this year, Pelican
Landing will reopen as a relaxed dockside restaurant—a beloved classic reintroduced to a new generation.
“We’re proud to be part of Fort Lauderdale’s culinary evolution,” says Frank Serindat, Pier Sixty-Six’s Food & Beverage Director. “Our goal is to create an epicenter of flavor that reflects the city’s global energy and coastal lifestyle.”
For residents, these dining experiences blur the line between going out and coming home. Morning coffee at Elate, sunset dinner at Sotogrande, a nightcap at Pier Top—each setting builds a sense of community, a shared taste of the good life anchored in the harbor.
Pier Sixty-Six is both preservation and reinvention. The tower and Pier Top have been designated historic landmarks, ensuring their midcentury silhouette endures as part of Fort Lauderdale’s skyline. Around them, everything has evolved— architecture, hospitality, and a new sense of community designed for the city’s next chapter.
“This isn’t just the opening of a resort,” says O’Callaghan. “It’s a step into the future, offering an experience that will continue to draw people to this vibrant city for years to come.”
As night deepens over the marina, light ripples across the water and the hum of engines fades into the distance. From the terraces of Indigo to the decks of moored yachts, there’s a sense of belonging that transcends address. Pier Sixty-Six is no longer just a place to visit—it’s the place to live, the social harbor of Fort Lauderdale’s new era.

Across 65 years and FOUR generations, the Banks family has defined hospitality at Lago


n the ever-evolving world of hospitality, it’s increasingly rare to find a family-owned and operated resort where guests are greeted by name and welcomed with the same personalized service o en provided by sta who’ve worked there for decades. That spirit lies at the heart of Lago Mar Beach Resort & Club, a hotel and private members’ club situated on one of the most coveted stretches of beachfront in Fort Lauderdale.
Stretching across ten lush acres with 500 feet of private shoreline, the property has been lovingly cared for by the same family for 65 years. Sidney Banks rst purchased the hotel in 1960 and ran it with his wife, Florence. Their son, Walter Banks, later took the helm and continues to help guide the resort today alongside his daughter, Debbie Banks-Snyder, the resort’s CEO and third-generation steward of its enduring legacy.
“We’re still traditional. You can see it, you can feel it,” says Debbie as she leads me through the hotel on a tour. “When I make decisions, I ask myself, ‘What would my dad do?’ And I know he asked the same of his father.”
Part of the resort’s success lies in rare perks like free parking, no resort fees, and its welcoming familiarity. That charm begins in the lobby, where guests are greeted by a massive bronze pineapple chandelier, mosaic flooring adorned with sea creatures (crafted by the same artisan who worked on the late Gianni Versace’s mansion in South Beach), and a signature scent called Endless Sunshine. During the day, vacationers crowd the old-fashioned Soda Shop, perched on bar stools for ice cream cones. In the evenings, families gather in the lounge, where children decked out in Lilly Pulitzer sip “kiddie cocktails” while parents mingle and piano music oats through the air.

What truly elevates Lago Mar is the family’s commitment


to continuous improvement. They allocate approximately $5 million annually for renovations, from infrastructure to interiors.
“It’s like having house guests 365 days a year—you want it to be perfect,” Debbie says. Guests and members enjoy amenities that include two pools—one exclusive to adults and a family lagoon pool—plus two tennis courts, pickleball courts, a putt-putt course, and a beachside playground. The resort now partners with Boucher Brothers, whose crisp yellowand-white striped umbrellas, beach cabanas, and daybeds now dot the sand, along with sand art and beach games. Accommodations include 44 rooms and 160 suites, all with private balconies. The views are a luxury in themselves.
“Our guests love watching the
cruise ships come and go from their personal balconies,”
Debbie notes. Even the nautical-style conference room o ers outdoor views, making meetings feel more like a vacation.
A stroll by the history wall feels like ipping through a family photo album. Vintage images show Walter Banks golfing with President Nixon, Debbie posing with tennis legend Chris Evert, and icons like Johnny Carson and Ed McMahon vacationing at Lago Mar.
One plaque particularly stands out, featuring Sidney Banks’ mantra: “We try to operate a great hotel, with a pro t if we can, and a loss if we must, but always a great hotel.” That guiding principle still drives the family— sometimes even at the cost of turning away high-pro le
guests. Debbie recalls one instance in the '90s when a famously headline-making actor and his supermodel girlfriend requested to stay at the resort. “They had just destroyed a suite at another hotel,” she says. “We said no. We’re more interested in protecting the guests who return year a er year.”
Debbie admits she didn’t always have a passion for running the family business. She initially had dreams of going to law school and getting as far away from Fort Lauderdale as possible. But a er a devastating accident brought her back home, her perspective shi ed. “Lago Mar is like a member of our family. It’s that special. It de nes me—I don’t know what I would do without it,” she says, blotting away tears.
Even when she took time o to raise her four children, she remained closely tied to the resort, o en observing how families interacted with the space. That in uence helped shape Lago Mar into a destination especially beloved by families, with thoughtful touches like seating along the outdoor walkway where parents can socialize or dine as their children romp on the playground. “I learned a lot by being a mom and what made my life easier,” she says, “and by talking to people who didn’t know who I was.”
Looking ahead, Debbie hopes the legacy will continue through one—or all—of her four children. “We’ve been here for 65 years, and we want to be here for another 65 years,” she says. “I have so much respect for what my father and grandfather built, but the kids and I also have a lot of surprises up our sleeves.”
