Anantara Hotels & Resorts, whose Thailand properties starred in the third season of the hit HBO show The White Lotus, will open its first U.S. hotel. Anantara Miami Resort & Residences<\/a> will debut in 2030, officials shared exclusively with Forbes Travel Guide.<\/p>\n A joint effort from Bangkok-based Minor Hotels (Anantara\u2019s parent company) and Miami developers One Thousand Group, the 50-story tower will house 50 hotel suites, 100 private branded condominium residences and 120 resort residences that owners can make available to hotel guests. Rising above Biscayne Bay, the waterfront hotel in Miami\u2019s Edgewater neighborhood will also feature Thai-inspired service, wellness and cultural immersion.<\/p>\n The 50-story tower will house hotel suites, private condo residences and more.<\/p>\n Gladstone Immersive <\/p>\n \u201cMiami is the perfect location for the debut of our luxury Anantara brand into the U.S,\u201d said William E. Heinecke, founder and chairman of Minor International, which owns Minor Hotels. \u201cWe are excited to partner with One Thousand Group to bring this vision to reality.\u201d<\/p>\n Architecture by KPF (whose work includes Dubai\u2019s Atlantis, The Royal<\/a> and Seoul\u2019s Lotte World Tower) and ODP Architecture & Design (which collaborated with One Thousand Group and Major Food Group on the design of under-construction Villa Miami) will capture the cosmopolitan feel of Miami and subtle Thailand-inspired touches that represent the Anantara brand\u2019s heritage.<\/p>\n Milan-based designer Patricia Urquiola, the talent behind The Rome EDITION<\/a> and Casa Brera, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Milan<\/a>, will oversee the interiors for her first residential project in the U.S.<\/p>\n The pool terrace and a curated wellness program will play big roles at the property.<\/p>\n KPF<\/p>\n The hotel will take up the building\u2019s first three floors. It will have luxurious amenities, like a top-floor helipad and a pool terrace, but its wellness program is what will distinguish the property among Miami\u2019s crowded field of properties. Anantara Miami will aim to be an urban sanctuary blending ancient Thai healing and modern longevity regimens at its vitality center, which will specialize in movement, nutrition and recovery.<\/p>\n \u201cTrue luxury is time, the freedom to pause, to explore and to experience the world more deeply,\u201d Heinecke said.<\/p>\n At the crossroads of Miami\u2019s Edgewater, Design District and Wynwood neighborhoods, Anantara Miami will be in easy reach of the P\u00e9rez Art Museum, the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science and the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts.<\/p>\n Anantara, which means \u201cwithout end\u201d in Sanskrit, launched in 2001 in Thailand. Known for hotels that embrace their destinations, the company has grown to more than 50 properties in Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and the Indian Ocean. Americans will recognize the brand from season three of The White Lotus, which filmed at Thailand properties Anantara Lawana Koh Samui Resort, Anantara Mai Khao Phuket Villas and Anantara Bophut Koh Samui Resort.<\/p>\n A top-floor helipad will take luxury to new heights.<\/p>\n Gladstone Immersive <\/p>\n The collection also includes the Forbes Travel Guide Recommended Anantara New York Palace Budapest Hotel<\/a>, a grand Neo-Renaissance landmark that\u2019s home to the famous New York Caf\u00e9. The Four-Star Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas<\/a> hosts the Maldives\u2019 only underwater caviar restaurant and the country\u2019s first overwater observatory. And at Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort, you can book \u201cJungle Bubbles\u201d \u2014 transparent, globe-shaped suites that let you sleep among the elephants. All the properties practice nam jai (or \u201cwater from the heart\u201d), a Thai philosophy of selfless generosity and hospitality performed without the expectation of reward.<\/p>\n \u201cAnantara Miami Resort & Residences introduces something entirely new to the U.S.,\u201d said Kevin Venger, co-founder of One Thousand Group, whose previous projects include the One Thousand Museum<\/a>, the last residential building designed by the late Pritzker Prize-winning architect Zaha Hadid. \u201cIt\u2019s not just another branded residence.\u201d<\/p>\n MORE FROM FORBESForbesThe Ultimate Travel Guide For The 2026 World CupBy Forbes Travel Guide<\/a>Forbes12 Marathons Worth Traveling For In 2026By Jennifer Kester<\/a>ForbesInside The World\u2019s First Five-Star Cruise ShipBy Jennifer Kester<\/a>ForbesForbes Travel Guide\u2019s 2026 Star Award Winners\u2014Including The World\u2019s First Five-Star CruiseBy Jennifer Kester<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"South Florida is ideal for the luxury brand\u2019s stateside debut.
