The Regent Bal Harbour Has 'Special' Opening Rates of $775 a Night
The long-awaited Regent Bal Harbour (which was supposed to open on New Year's Day then in February) has finally opened this week.
And guess what? Those of you who are watching your disposable income, in these worrisome days of a possible recession, will probably rule this hotel out of your vacation plans.
For instance, we looked at dates for today March 11 through March 13 figuring that weekday rates might be a little lower. Nope. The hotel is offering opening rates for a Premier Deluxe Room at $775 a night. However, you do get a panoramic view of both the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay along with several high-tech room amenities.
A lower categories of rooms--the Superior rooms--were found to be about $200 cheaper but not available on the dates we selected. Go to the opening exclusive page to fiddle with the dates and rates.
Still, most of the guests traveling to Bal Harbour, known for some of the greatest shopping in the U.S. (we've been there and can attest to that), can probably afford these rates. Afterall, that's like a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes from Neiman Marcus.
And speaking of Neiman Marcus, if you book the Neiman Marcus package at the hotel you get a $300 Neiman gift card, complimentary transport to the store, and a personal shopper plus one make-up consultation at the store.
Bal Harbour is quite pretty and it's actually a lot more relaxing than anywhere in South Beach proper. But we'll have to save a lot of pennies before we can stay here.
