Meliá Hotels International is set to debut ME Miami, the first Me by Meliá-branded hotel in the U.S. The new bayfront hotel, slated to open in spring 2015, will also serve as U.S. headquarters of Meliá Hotels International.
Under the ownership of private-equity, alternative investment manager, CGI Merchant Group, the downtown property will take over the current location of Casa Moderna Hotel. The area will also host Zaha Hadid’s new project and the new Miami World Center, which will include a large shopping mall.
ME Miami will boast 129 rooms, two rooftop pools, and more than 5,000 square feet of renovated space for F&B outlets. All public and private spaces, including the spa, will be completely remodeled. 

One of the property’s signature F&B outlets will include STK Rebel, a casual version of the traditional steakhouse, which will include indoor and outdoor dining options.
The announcement of ME Miami follows the successful launches this summer of ME Mallorca and ME Ibiza as well as the celebrated ME London, which opened in 2013. The brand will continue to expand with three future properties, including ME Milan Il Duca and ME Caracas, both slated to open in 2015, and Zaha Hadid’s ME Dubai in 2016.
