At the same time, spectacular Art Deco elements do not seem superfluous here. The guests are presented 140 rooms and royal villas with exquisite design. French trompe l'oeil panels and opulent Art Nouveau chandeliers rub the travelers' eyes.

1 Hotel South Beach

On the beach, you don't want to live in concrete and glass boxes that let in little air and prevent you from experiencing freedom to the fullest. Here you awaken an irresistible desire to merge with the amazing nature into a single whole. To help in its realization come eco-friendly hotels, which are deliberately arranged on the shore of the boundless ocean.
