Miami Beach’s Plymouth hotel has announced its June reopening following an extensive overhaul. The circa-1940 hotel promises to return to its iconic former glamour thanks to the team at Think Hospitality.
Located in the Collins Park cultural district, the Plymouth got its facelift from New York-based designer Fernando Santangelo. Guests will be greeted by the Art Deco property’s large streetfront terrace, complete with swing benches and potted palm trees. The lobby is graced with murals by American artist Roman Chatov, whose jewel tones inspired Santangelo’s blue, green, and red color scheme. “It’s definitely tropical, but more South of France than South Florida,” Santangelo says.
Small pockets have been oriented into the oval lobby for private interactions. Santangelo incorporated tones of almond, ruby, grappa, and aubergine into the tiny spaces with hand picked vintage chairs, lamps, and sofas. Lush green hues are also offset by leather and wood furnishings, and handcrafted wallcoverings and custom onyx and brass fixtures complete the space.
Each guestroom is individually furnished based on its size and mood and feature a mix of styles, from British members-only clubs, to Mediterranean, to beach-house chic.
Architects from New York’s Asfour Guzy teamed up with chefs Bruce and Eric Bromberg and master sushi chef Toshi Ueki to create a unique Blue Ribbon Sushi Bar & Grill honoring the brand’s other successful locations throughout the country. The oval pool mimics the shape of the lobby and will serve as a backdrop to the restaurant, set against coral cabanas and bougainvillea-covered walls.
“We’re creating an environment that feels like a getaway, where guests can jump into Miami Beach—or disappear in the middle of it,” says Think’s managing partner Michael Satsky. “It’s not trendy, and it’s not anti-scene; it’s post-scene. And it looks and feels unlike anything else here.”
