"What makes Los Fuegos truly extraordinary is our commitment to the ancient art of cooking with fire,” explained Yassine Belkady, the restaurant’s manager. “We use no electricity whatsoever—just fire, wood ovens, and tradition” Everything has that distinctive char, those bold, nearly burnt flavors that taste almost primal. “When you dine here, you can literally smell the wood and rosemary in the air,” he added. The restaurant’s setting matches its culinary panache. By day, the veranda transforms into an airy ambience when its retractable roof opens to Miami’s brilliant skies. Guests enjoy lunch while overlooking the property’s stunning pool, creating what Belkady called “a completely different experience than any other hotel or restaurant in Miami.” 

"Our ethos on how we approach all of our spa services is to incorporate healing arts into our services, which takes special note of the guest’s energy at that particular moment and adjusts the treatment to suit what the guest needs,” said Spa Director Charlotte Prescott. “That can be anything from changing the temperature, changing the music, changing the pace of the service, or changing the blend of essential oils.” For example, spa therapists educate guests on the use of essential oils for different times of day: black pepper, ginger and cedarwood are more energizing for morning treatments while rose geranium, lavender and chamomile are more calming in the evening. 

“Retro takes the audience back in time to those golden years with a top-notch band led by none other than the brilliant Rocky Lanes, who leaves everything on stage, every show!” said Shane Borth, music director of Quixotic, the awardwinning performance collective that developed the show in collaboration with Alan Faena. Lanes, who starred in Faena’s Allura Cabaret, continues to mesmerize theater guests with her powerful vocals and show-stopping costumes custommade by fashion designer Gustavo Casanovas. “Music has the power to unite us all,” Lanes says at the start of the show, whether that’s across eras or in-the-moment singing along with other guests. “We wanted to bring back the oldies that make you groove—those songs that have been remastered over and over because they’ve withstood the test of time,” said Lanes.
