SLS South Beach TOWER PENTHOUSE SUITE SOUTH BEACH

This opulent rock-star pad, designed by Lenny Kravitz, counts Jennifer Lopez and Ryan Philippe as guests. It sits atop Art Deco architect L Murray Dixon’s building, formerly the Ritz Plaza Hotel. The design combines a funky global decor with custom furniture and Art Deco elements, such as black-and-white marble floors throughout, low leather couches and digitally-printed wall and ceiling coverings. The separate bar with backless wooden bar stools by Sergio Rodrigues makes entertaining a blast, as does the customized stereo console with turntable, iPad dock and speakers throughout the suite, including the terrace. Named one of Elite Traveler’s Top 100 Suites, earlier this year. Special amenities Book a sunrise yoga session from V Art of Wellness on the private rooftop terrace, or hold an evening cocktail party with a bartender and nibbles from either Katsuya or the The Bazaar by José Andrés.
