Originally designed by famed Architect Murray Dixon and built in 1941, the Caribbean Hotel was once a hot spot for the rich and famous who frequented Miami Beach during the Rat Pack days. This historic oceanfront landmark is now undergoing restoration and will recapture the glamour of a bygone era as a new, upscale condominium.
The existing six-story building is being renovated to house 35 ultra luxury condominiums in what is to be the North Tower, and a new 19-story South Tower is being built alongside it with 68 equally lavish residences. Penthouses will feature private rooftop terraces and swimming pools.
Caribbean has been honored with two Florida's BEST Awards: the gold medal for pool design and the silver medal for best landscape design. Witkin Design Group is the driving force behind both of these designing visions.
