Editorial Review

Elvis, The Rat Pack, James Bond—they've all spent time here. After a cool billion worth of renovations, the debauchery—and white-glove service—is back. Much of the old design was recreated/restored: the black and white bow-tie floors and grand columns in the lobby, gradiose chandeliers, famous "staircase to nowhere." Instead of one huge tower, there are now three. What was once a kiddy pool is a huge free-form pool with a "European Bath" topless area, bound to be the setting for US Weekly blurbs for the foreseeable future. Pristine 40,000-square-foot two-story, white marble spa; 11 new restaurants and clubs; rooms up to 4,000 square feet of of granite, walk in showers, a brand new Mac, you name it. You got the cash, this is the place to drop it like you're somebody. Welcome to Vegas in Miami.
