Climbing the Biscayne

A corner penthouse on the seventeenth floor, this Miami apartment wakes you to Biscayne Bay on one side and the Downtown skyline on the other – views that make it hard to leave the main bedroom in the morning. Beyond the apartment itself, over 25,000 square feet of amenity space is yours to roam – rooftop plunge spa and fire pit, a pool deck with towel and bar service, and a two-floor fitness suite with a rock climbing wall and racquetball court. Bayfront Park is eleven minutes on foot, and the Adrienne Arsht Center is a twenty-one-minute walk for a cultural evening out.

Home truths:
* At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area. Be aware that the curtains are on the sheer side – you may find the daylight wakes you earlier than planned if you're sleeping here.
* The area around the building has active construction nearby, which can start up early in the morning. If you're a light sleeper or planning early-morning lie-ins, it's worth factoring in.
* The only full bathroom here is the en-suite off the main bedroom.
* Though there's free parking here, it's not on the premises but at a garage a short walk away.
* Your host can provide a cot for little ones.
* Your host asks you to respect quiet hours after 10pm.
