Pool Boys At The Ritz Carlton South Beach

Where: 1 Lincoln Road [map], Miami, fl, United States, 33139

Ever wanted your own personal tall, tanned, toned Miami pool boy? Well now you can have him, at the Ritz Carlton in Miami.

In a time when luxury hotels have to go above and beyond to maintain their edge over the budget luxury crowd, the Ritz has turned to the time tested tactic of selling human flesh. They call this high concept art the "tanning butler."

"He offers complimentary sunscreen and, better yet, offers to apply it to hard-to-reach areas," says Ritz spokeswoman Michelle Payer.

Really, are fat cats too lazy to lather up before they bake themselves in the Miami sun all day long?

The more pressing question is obviously does the "tanning butler" rub down both men and women.
