Beach Getaways 2008 - (Page 21) SOUTH BEACH. IT’S A TROPICAL PARADISE WHERE STAR POWER AND INTERNATIONAL DESIGN COME TOGETHER IN A DELICIOUS, WHIMSICAL WAY. LYNN WADDELL LOBBIES FOR RELAXING LUXURY RETREATS BY DAY AND GLAMOUR BY NIGHT. South Beach, Miami. © Joseph Sohm/Visions of America/Corbis Miami Beach. It’s a place where famous artists and designers put their signatures on 1930s art deco boutique hotels, using unique recipes of modernism, minimalism, color, whimsy, retro and vintage to create eclectic one-of-a-kind retreats and party destinations. But you don’t have to throw down $500 a night on a room (although that has obvious rewards) to enjoy their creations. There are no velvet ropes keeping you out of opulent hotel lobbies or many star-filled clubs, just possibly a lack of nerve. Strap on some confidence along with your heels and take a walk on the glamorous side of South Beach where some stars come to work as well as play. Beach Getaways 21
