Acqualina Resort & Spa Announces Guestroom Redesign

SUNNY ISLES BEACH, Fla.—Acqualina Resort & Spa on the Beach will unveil a redesign of its 98 guestrooms and suites this fall. Imagined by Isabel Tragash of Miami-based STA Architectural Group and the hotel’s ownership team Stephanie Trump and Deborah Yager Fleming, the new look will add a heightened level of modern elegance to the five-star, five-diamond resort located in Miami’s Sunny Isles Beach neighborhood.

“Our resort is an anchor of luxury hospitality in South Florida, and we continually strive to elevate the guest experience year over year,” said Deborah Yager Fleming, vice chairman and principal, Acqualina Resort & Spa on the Beach. “The new guestrooms are yet another example of our dedication to truly exceeding expectations with a heightened level of comfortable luxury. Stephanie Trump and I worked hand-in-hand with Isabel Tragash to conceptualize the perfect blend of luxury and practicality that is articulated through the careful selection of color palettes, fabrics, furnishings, and would accentuate one of our biggest assets: the breathtaking views.”

Acqualina’s spacious accommodations, which include standard rooms beginning at nearly 750 square feet up to three bedroom suites spanning more than 2,300 square feet, will be dressed in cool, calming tones cued by the resort’s oceanfront location. Subtle hues of the tropics will be introduced to a classical palette of taupe, sandy tans, and soft grays with hints of violet, brought to life with a collection of rich, custom fabrics woven throughout the space.

Satin draping will frame windows and sliding glass doors that give way to oversized balconies with views of the resort’s more than 400 feet of Atlantic oceanfront, the Intracoastal Waterway, or Miami’s sparkling city lights. Sand-gray carpeting is sculpted to represent the beach’s sandy shore.

Each guestroom will feature a selection of traditional furnishings in a deep ebony color, finished in a rich, high gloss lacquer with inflections of bronze jewel tones to contrast the muted fabrics. Accent pieces will help create defined separation of spaces, even in the standard room categories, to create distinct sitting and sleeping areas.

A contemporary bronze coffee table will become the centerpiece of the room’s sitting area, bordered by a traditional wingback chair crafted from grey bouclé fabric with exposed buttons and modernized by clean lines. A custom sofa, also in a light gray shade, has a curved back that adds a sense of femininity and a pullout pillow-top mattress. The sleeping area will be highlighted by an upholstered headboard, tufted in channels.

Outside of the newly updated guestrooms, an extensive collection of amenities are available, including four dining options, such as the signature AQ by Acqualina, featuring modern American cuisine crafted with fresh, local ingredients, fine Italian fare at Il Mulino New York, and causal beachside dining at Costa Grill. Additionally, the resort’s four swimming pools provide a range of outdoor lounging options for sun-seekers.

Guests of Acqualina may also indulge in the award-winning Acqualina Spa by ESPA. The first branded ESPA in the United States, Acqualina Spa by ESPA embraces the ESPA philosophy with an offering of meditative and restorative treatments based on Ayurvedic principles. A skilled staff creates tailored treatments to completely customize each guest’s experience. The spa’s his-and-hers relaxation lounges, ice fountains, Roman waterfall, experience showers that feature cool artic or warm Caribbean mists, Finnish saunas, crystal steam rooms, as well as a heated jet pool, and one of the resort’s four ocean view swimming pools, create a fully immersive experience.
