Ft. Lauderdale’s Newest, Most Prestigious Address

100 Las Olas — Condo Residences & Hotel 

January 19, 2017

Hello.  Joel Greene here from Condo Hotel Center.

A few months ago I saw a Groupon special for a stay at the Riverside Hotel on Las Olas Blvd. in Ft. Lauderdale.  Now that Jackie and I are empty nesters and have a little bit of freedom, I thought it’d be fun for us to do a quick weekend getaway there.

As it turns out, Riverside is the only hotel on Las Olas Blvd.  It also happens to be Fort Lauderdale’s oldest hotel, circa 1936.  It has historical photos gracing its hallways, and guest rooms outfitted with antique oak furnishings and ornamental palm trees.  It is filled to the brim with old Florida charm.

While Jackie and I enjoyed our stay in the historical hotel, what we liked most was spending time on Las Olas Blvd.  It’s a stretch of about 10 blocks lined with palm trees, charming Mediterranean architecture, and about 120 specialty retail shops, art galleries and museums.  It also has about 30 different restaurants, most with indoor and outdoor dining.

We loved it.  So this past week, when I found out a new residential property was about to be built right on Las Olas Blvd., I knew it would be something special.  Read on for details.

100 Las Olas will be 46 stories tall with residences and Hyatt Centric hotel rooms.

A Hyatt Centric with Residences

100 Las Olas will be Fort Lauderdale’s tallest building at 499 feet and 46 floors.  A mixed-use property, it will combine residences, hotel rooms, and retail space.  Specifically, 100 Las Olas will have:

• 121 luxury residences with private entry and amenities
• A Hyatt Centric-branded, 238-guest room hotel
• 8,500 square feet of retail space for shops and restaurants
• Elevated resort-style private pool
• Day cabanas
• Comfortable lounging and seating areas
• 1,900 sq. ft. fitness and activities center
• Casual news room with comfortable seating and daily coffee/beverage service
• Private Residents’ Club Room with catering kitchen, bar and outdoor plaza
• 24-hour security
• On-site property management

Hyatt Centric is a modern iteration of the Hyatt brand and a strong four-star hotel.  Owners of the residences at 100 Las Olas will have the benefit of having the hotel on site, affording them access to two restaurants and the hotel bar in the grand hotel lobby.

The residences will be delivered fully finished with the owner’s choice of design packages.

An Ideal Location

100 Las Olas is located in the heart of downtown Fort Lauderdale on Las Olas Blvd. with its many shops, restaurants, clubs and art galleries.

In addition, the property is near many other points of interest.

We’ll Be Going Back

I mentioned at the beginning that Jackie and I had stayed at The River Hotel on Las Olas Blvd.  We later found out the hotel is reported to be haunted by three ghosts: an outgoing young man who presses his face against the windows of the hotel to frighten guests, a sad little girl with a ruffled dress and curly hair who stares out the windows, and an older man in a raincoat who wanders from room to room.

I’m happy to report that Jackie and I saw no spirits lurking,  but I think nonetheless, in the future we’ll stay at the new 100 Las Olas Hyatt Centric.

Again, if you could be interested in 100 Las Olas, just request my detailed data sheet.   And if there’s a different Florida location or real estate investment you’d like to explore, please give me a call.  It’d be my pleasure to assist you in finding the perfect property.

Have a great day!
