Views of turquoise water fill 80 feet of windows at this pared-down Miami Beach penthouse. The setting is spectacular, but the vibe is sophisticated, with neutral tones and luxe textures instead of over-the-top glamour. Take the elevator down from the villa’s perch atop the 1 Hotel and walk outside to the broad, sandy beach.

Sun and sip in private on the oceanfront balcony, which gives you a great view of all that’s happening on the beach. As a guest of 1 Hotel, you’re also welcome to splash around the swimming pools and stretch out in the fitness center.

Crystallized glass floors stretch out across the villa’s great room, linking the living area, dining area, and fully equipped kitchen. You’ll find the same attention to texture and detail throughout, from the quartz island and Italian silver travertine accents in the kitchen to the limestone slabs in the bathrooms. And the penthouse’s softer side is on display in pieces like faux-fur cushions and a live-edge coffee table.

With 4 pools and 600 feet of white-sand beach, the hotel has plenty of room for you to soak in the Florida sunshine. Reserve a cabana for privacy, order drinks to sip beachside, and, when you’re hungry, stop at one of 6 restaurants serving everything from farm-to-table specialties to Japanese-Peruvian fusion. Beyond the hotel, you’re a 3-minute walk from Collins Park and a 4-minute drive from downtown Miami Beach.
