OneWorld Properties led by Peggy Olin is the exclusive sales and marketing team for YOTELPAD Miami. The mixed-use hotel and residential development, which will be the first YOTELPAD on the East Coast, is located in Downtown Miami and is slated for completion in early 2021.

“Our team has sold over 18 units per month over the last six months – that is 111 units and counting. This is something we have not seen in Miami in a long time,” said Peggy Olin, president and CEO of OneWorld Properties. “Buyers understand the value and freshness of the YOTEL brand and are looking for flexibility and a prime location. Miami serves as a significant gateway to global markets and has one of the largest financial districts in the U.S. Our team was able to take all the incredible elements of this project and the Downtown area to deliver the right product for this market.”

“The realization of YOTELPAD is a major milestone for Downtown Miami,” said David Arditi, principal of Aria Development Group. “It’s the first time a global hospitality brand will offer luxury living at an attainable price point. The innovative PAD concept, with its clever and adaptable floorplans and flexible rental options, is being received with great enthusiasm by local and international buyers alike. We are excited to forge ahead with construction and bring this highly-anticipated project to life.”

Upon completion of the project, YOTELPAD Miami will incorporate three Techi robot butlers capable of delivering beverages, food, gifts, documents and more. Raising the standard for residential amenities, two robots will be available to residents and one will be designated to guests of the hotel. The robots can be programmed to speak a variety of languages, dialogues and play digital files with music and voice recordings. Other amenities include concierge services, secure bike storage, gourmet matcha bar, full-service restaurant and bar with outdoor seating and private dining, state-of-the-art fitness center, co-working space, a lounge, pool deck and pet salon. In addition, each PAD will come with a dedicated storage unit. Global design and engineering firm Stantec is the lead architect, interior designer and engineer for the project.

“As global experts in the residential real estate market, we believe in YOTEL’s new ‘live smarter’ PAD concept,” said Fahad Al-Shamlan, vice president of Investments & Acquisitions for AQARAT. “Our partnership with Aria Development Group on this project will transcend the boundaries of luxury in high-end resort destinations for the modern person.”

The 31-story YOTELPAD Miami, which is located at 227 NE 2nd Street and designed by Stantec, will feature 222 Yotel-branded “cabins” (hotel rooms), 231 “PADs” (condominiums) and amenities such as a Skytop Lounge, pool deck with restaurant and bar, fitness center, co-working space and pet spa.

Turnberry Ocean Club, currently under construction in Sunny Isles Beach, has revealed new renderings of its ultra-luxe amenities as well as unveiled its new amenity, the in-residence hotel guest suites. Laid out just like a grand hotel suite at Turnberry Isle, residents of Turnberry Ocean Club have access to two complimentary guest suites within the tower that can be reserved in advance. They are the only residential tower to house complimentary guest suites for resident’s guests.

Other resort style amenities include sunrise and sunset infinity-edge pools, an on-property coffee café, three on-site upscale residents-only restaurants, game room, kids club, and kids room. On floors 30-32 will be a Sky Club which will offer private dining and event space with over 1,585 SF and an equally sizable terrace, flanked by a catering kitchen and capable of entertaining up to 150 guests. The Sky Club will also offer a cantilevering infinity-edge sunset pool, indoor and outdoor fitness centers, fine dinging, a sunset lounge, hydrotherapy, cabanas with ocean views, a salon, "sky theater" and a "pet retreat." On the beach residents have access to a full-service beach club with chairs, umbrellas, towels, refreshments, snacks, meals and libations from the pool bar and restaurant. There will also be beach cabanas with attendants. Buyers will also receive complimentary membership to Turnberry Isle Country Club with access to Tidal Cove. The state-of-the-art outdoor recreation area will add five-acres of pool deck to the resort with features that include a 60’ tower with seven water slides, a 4,000 SF kids pool with an aquatic play structure, and the first-ever FlowRider® Triple surf simulation pool in the nation.

When complete Turnberry Ocean Club will rise 649’ tall, 54-stories, and will offer 154 units. Units range from 2,900 SF to over 10,645 SF. Pricing ranges from $3.9 to $35 million with the higher-end of the scale consisting of duplexes that come complete with their own swimming pools and start at $19.5 million. Turnberry Ocean Club Residences is being developed by Beach Club Acquisitions LLC, an affiliate of Turnberry Associates led by Donald Soffer, Jeffrey Soffer, and Jackie Soffer.
