Fontainebleau Miami Beach has recently debuted the complete redesign of its iconic all oceanfront suite, Sorrento Tower – offering guests the ultimate luxury experience with guestroom interiors designed by Marzipan Interior Design.
Built in 1948 and named after the infamous coastal Italian town, the Sorrento Tower was once a standalone, art-deco designed hotel which was later acquired by Fontainebleau. In its newly-unveiled renovation, the suite’s interiors are inspired by the work of famed hotel designer Gio Ponti – known for his design in the Parco dei Principi hotel on the cliffs of Sorrento.
“Fontainebleau continues to offer an exceptional variety of guest room options throughout our four towers,” says Phil Goldfarb, President and Chief Operating Officer, Fontainebleau Miami Beach. “In this renovation of the iconic Sorrento Tower, we really took guest feedback into consideration for the new design in order to better suit our guest’s evolving travel needs. Fontainebleau is synonymous with iconic architecture and design, and our continued investment in renovations allows us to offer a standout product that our guests come back for year after year, all while staying true to our rich history.”
Influenced by its Miami Beach setting, décor features a pearl and oyster theme, incorporating elements of sea and sand through standout pieces such as an area rug that embodies sand rippling below the water’s surface as well as abstract artwork that conveys the horizon line over the ocean. New furniture pieces play tribute to 1950s Italy, such as lounge chair seating and retro lamps, that complement the steamer trunk – an icon of the grand age of travel. Marzipan Interior Design drew inspiration from Gio Ponti’s design style for furnishings, lighting and accessories throughout the tower’s suites while maintaining a neutral, serene color palette representative of the elements of the Atlantic Ocean, which can be clearly admired on each suite’s balcony.
