One More Reason To Celebrate In Miami Ultimate Getaway at The St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort
Glitz, glamor, shopping, nightlife, suntans, and beaches—there are plenty of reasons to travel to the coveted Magic City. The ultimate playground for today’s jetsetter, Miami’s action-packed vibe and glamorous happenings are dynamic all year round. This year, one of the nation’s top resorts, The St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort, is celebrating its 10-year anniversary with luxuries designed to woo the most discerning travelers. An over-the-top Diamond Anniversary Experience awaits those who want to indulge themselves in the ultimate dining, shopping, and pampering available.
The extravagant getaway begins on board private jet transportation with evoJets from your getaway city to Miami, Florida. Once you arrive at the exclusive enclave in Miami Beach where The St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort sits, you are welcomed by deep-blue Atlantic waters and expansive white-sand beaches. Striking chandeliers, a series of mirrored walls, and unique artwork welcome you into the opulent lobby. Grab a glass of champagne and make your way to your accommodations at the Presidential Suite on the 24th floor via a private elevator. The Resort features 216 guest rooms and suites with separate living and dining areas, galley-style kitchens, and wraparound glass-walled balconies offering breathtaking ocean views. And for the moments you feel you are too many steps away from the beach, you can relax at an elegantly decorated 600-square-foot Oceanfront Day Villa, featuring a plush daybed, shower, flat-screen television, and spacious and private patio.
The Diamond Experience includes two luxe Blue Diamond facials at the St. Regis Spa. The restorative treatment removes signs of stress and renews aging skin using diamond-infused peptide complex and special ingredients. Linger on at the spa for a holistic wellness-focused treatment, such as the full-body Four Elements Couples Journey, or Abhyanga Ayurvedic treatment that promotes deep relaxation using Chakra points to calm, balance, renew, and reinvigorate the mind and body.
As part of the Resort’s 10-year celebration, you can enjoy your own exclusive dinner party at the famed St. Regis Wine Vault. A curated, globally inspired seven-course menu is created by Chef Ricardo Jarquin, each course carefully paired with fine wine and an elegant, handcrafted cocktail. Colorful fresh sashimi, chilled grand seafood tower with lobster tails, jumbo shrimp, seasonal oysters and crab claws, Asian tapas, and Italian Lobster Fra Diavolo are just some of the showstoppers at the dinner party. Expect to spend the entire evening indulging in food and drink, but arrive early to partake in the St Regis’ evening ritual of Champagne sabering, and linger on for a sip of The Peacock, featuring Michter’s 10-Year Single Barrel Bourbon, Grand Marnier Cuvée du Centenaire, and lemon juice, garnished with a candied orange, elegant peacock feather, and gold dust (priced at $100 per glass).
Another experience you cannot miss during your stay is the signature Anniversary Afternoon Tea experience at La Gourmandise. Inspired by Mrs. Caroline Astor’s famous lavish receptions at her mansion on Fifth Avenue, the luxurious afternoon includes an assortment of teas, paired with delectable, savory tea sandwiches filled with truffle eggs, lobster and peas, and smoked salmon and dill, followed by petit fours and French macrons delicately placed inside a silver bird cage.
For a more laidback breakfast, head downstairs to Atlantikós. The blue-and-white interior
transports you to the islands of Greece, where you can enjoy endless spreads of fresh-baked frittata, flaky croissants, baklava tarts, and homemade granola.
The unparalleled luxury getaway continues with a private styling experience at Bal Harbour Shops, located directly across from the Resort. The Bal Harbour Shops was the first luxury retail space of
its kind, created in 1965 by visionary Stanley Whitman. The renowned shopping venue is home to the first Neiman Marcus to open outside its native of Texas, the first Gucci’s mall store, and the first Saint Laurent, Dolce & Gabbana, and Santa Maria Novella stores top open outside of New York. After shopping for fashion, jewelry, and home décor at over 100 boutiques, make sure to take a break at one of the open-air cafés and restaurants at Bal Harbour Village, where you can feel the evening sea breeze and enjoy some of the hottest dining in Miami.
Finally, partake in a bespoke diamond jewelry design experience at De Beers, located at The St Regis’ lobby. Here you can try on their finest diamond pieces, such as the Portraits of Nature collection that heroes a butterfly’s breathtaking journey of personal transformation using colored diamonds, and even design your own signature ring, while enjoying a glass of champagne and no interruptions. Learn about each of the De Beers Jewelers rare and upcoming collections, their meaningful connection to nature and culture, and how the company ensures that diamonds create a lasting positive impact for the people and the places in Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, and Canada.
A milestone year offers a rare chance to jet set at the glamorous oceanfront resort like never before. Pricing for this over-the-top Diamond Anniversary Experience at Miami’s best address, The St. Regis Bal Harbour, starts at $110,000, but the memories created are priceless.
