The Bentley Residences Hotel

New Condo Hotel in Edgewater, Miami, Florida

October 28, 2015

Hi, Joel Greene here from Condo Hotel Center. If you’ve been reading my Property Alerts for a while, then you know I provide a lot of information about any property I feature.

I give you all the facts so you can make an informed decision on whether the property could be right for you. I consider it my form of truth in advertising.

The other day I came across a list that pokes fun at company slogans. You could call it their version of truth in advertising. What’s amusing is how surprisingly accurate they are. See if you agree:

You get the idea. I’ll have some more “truthful slogans” at the end of this write-up.  But first, let me provide you with the truthful facts about a to-be-built condo hotel coming soon to Miami, Florida.

The Bentley Edgewater will be the second Bentley to open in South Florida.

The Bentley Edgewater

Following the success of The Hilton Bentley South Beach Hotel, the same developer, Heafey Group, has decided to open a second Bentley condo hotel.

The Bentley Residences Hotel (also to be known as The Bentley Edgewater), will be a 32-story tower located in Edgewater, the white-hot area of Miami just south of downtown and close to all that Miami has to offer.

As a condo hotel, owners will have an opportunity to receive rent revenue.

As a condo hotel, owners will be able to use their condo residence when they’d like and place it in the rental program when they’re not there, receiving revenue that offsets the cost of ownership.

The Bentley Edgewater will have 207 fully-furnished condo hotel units including 18 penthouse suites located on the 27th, 28th and 29th floors.

At 32 stories, The Bentley Edgewater will have exceptional views of the Miami skyline.

Offering dramatic views of downtown Miami, Biscayne Bay, South Beach and Key Biscayne, The Bentley Edgewater will consist of:

• Floor 1 – Lobby
• Floors 2-4 – Parking
• Floor 5 – Amenities Level
• Floors 6-29 – Condo Hotel Units and PH Suites
• Floor 30 – Restaurant-Gym-Spa-Sauna
• Floor 31 – Conference Room Hotel-Meeting Area
• Floor 32 – Pool and Amenities

The restaurant on the 30th floor will have indoor and outdoor seating.

Luxury Amenities

The Bentley Edgewater will be operated by a world-class hotel operator.  That operator has yet to be named, but some of the brands reportedly being considered are Hilton and Marriott.

The fifth floor pool and sun deck will overlook Biscayne Bay.

Expected to be a four-star hotel, The Bentley Edgewater will have the following amenities:

• Lobby music lounge and coffee bar
• Signature cuisine on 30th floor restaurant
• 5th floor pool terrace with Biscayne Bay and skyline views
• Rooftop pool terrace with grill area
• Outdoor fitness area
• State-of-the-art fitness center
• Full-service spa
• Pet-friendly floor and amenities
• Kids’ play area
• 24-hour security and concierge

Included in the sale price of the condo hotel units is one year of VIP beach access to the Bentley Beach Club at the Hilton Bentley South Beach Hotel. Membership can be purchased for additional years.

Beach club services and amenities include:

• On-demand transportation to beach club
• Pool
• Cabanas
• Lounge chairs with cushions, umbrellas, towels
• Beachside food and beverage service
• Discounts on Hilton Bentley rooms, restaurant, spa and salon services

The individual condo hotel suites will be professionally designed and furnished.

Turnkey Condo Hotel Suites

Because The Bentley Edgewater will be a condo hotel, the suites will be delivered fully furnished and designed, ready for use.  Features will include:

• Interior design by David Rockwell
• Choice of decor packages
• Italian furnishings
• Oversized glass terrace in all residences
• 9-foot ceilings with floor-to-ceiling window walls
• Contemporary Italian design mini-kitchenettes
• Stainless steel appliances
• Granite countertops in kitchens and baths
• Sleek modern fixtures
• Spacious closets

The kitchen will have a contemporary design with granite countertops.

The developer is the Heafey Group.  Founded in 1976, it is a privately-owned real estate investment firm with a portfolio of assets valued in excess of $1 billion dollars.  The architect is Kobi Karp Architecture, founded in 1996 and whose high-rise condominium and hospitality projects have earned international recognition.

Fast Growing Edgewater

The Bentley Edgewater is located in the rapidly emerging neighborhood of Edgewater, just north of downtown Miami.  It is close to the trendy Miami Design District, Wynwood Arts District, Miami Beach, Midtown and downtown Miami neighborhoods.

Luxury shopping, high-end dining, sports activities, beaches, nightlife and world-class arts, culture and entertainment are all within easy reach.

Optional Hotel Program

Since The Bentley Edgewater will be a condo hotel, you have the option to place your unit in the hotel program and receive rent revenue.  You may still use your unit up to 90 days per year.

The optional hotel program allows owners to receive rent for their condo when they’re not using it.

Enjoy all the amenities and services of a first-class hotel along with an onsite hotel rental program to help you effectively manage your property.
