The first U.S. property for the Iconic Luxury Hotels collection and the first new hotel on Palm Beach Island in over four years, Palm House sets a new standard for luxury that redefines Palm Beach hospitality.
Palm House, Palm Beach’s first new hotel in four years and the island’s first modern, luxury hotel is now open. Ideally situated steps from the beach on Royal Palm Way, between Worth Avenue and the Royal Poinciana Plaza, the 79-room Palm House brings new-world luxury and classic elegance to the storied island. This is the first U.S. property for the London-based L+R Hotel’s prestigious Iconic Luxury Hotels (“ILH”) collection, which includes some of the world’s most legendary hotels such as the British country estate of Cliveden House, the majestic Hotel Excelsior on the Venice Lido, and the witty and dashing The Mayfair Townhouse in Mayfair, London.
Palm House was conceived as an everlasting escape that pays homage to the enduring allure of the island, while establishing new traditions for the next generation of this timeless destination. Cooper Carry, architects; Muza Lab, interior designers, and art consultant Minda Dowling reimagined the iconic pinks and greens of vintage Palm Beach to create a hotel that is fresh, bright, bold and inviting, like stepping into a glamorous jewel box. The vision was to create a place of relaxed exclusivity and discretion that would feel like a beautiful, classic home restored to meet every modern desire.
Beginning with Palm House’s lively, coral façade, which peeks out from behind coconut palms and lush greenery, guests know they’ve arrived somewhere special. Accents of carved, cypress arbors and pale-pink, limestone arches add warm detailing to the charming, three-story building.
Palm Bar
Guests enter from the grand porte cochere directly into the magic and energy of the Palm Bar. The “wonderland-esque,” light-filled bar and lounge is adorned with two vast seashell wall installations by Christa Wilm and two custom-made, coral walls, Murano-glass chandeliers suspended from the vaulted ceiling. The bar is luminous in pink marble. The floor is a mosaic of matte and polished marble that creates a sense of movement beneath an arched, antique-mirrored ceiling that adds a shimmer of reflective light. Check-in happens discreetly, either at the delightfully adorned desk with seashells or in the comfort of your room.
All are welcome to join the team at The Palm Bar and unwind in intimate arrangements of ruby-colored seating for cocktails, gourmet snacks and people watching. Bartenders in white tuxedo jackets take guests on a journey from perfectly executed standards and British favorites to creative interpretations of tropical Florida classics. As if being hosted in a beautiful home, hotel guests and locals alike will share an unspoken comradery while the highly attentive Palm Bar team happily cater to their personal whims and preferences.
Palm House Dining Room
To the right of the bar is Palm House Dining Room, where Executive Chef de Cuisine Jerry Ayala has created a menu that fuses Japanese cuisine with Peruvian ingredients, described by many as Nobu Style, inspired by his prior work studying the work of Chef Nobu Matsuhisa, whose influence has profoundly shaped the vision for the dining experience at the Palm House Dining Room. Conceived as a destination for hotel guests as well as residents of Palm Beach, the Dining Room offers all-day dining, including breakfast, lunch and dinner, available both indoors and on the outdoor terrace. The versatile, 88-seat room features a mix of banquettes, standalone tables, and an open kitchen with a chef’s table to provide a culinary journey that is personalized and intimate. The design artfully combines decorative oak walls and subtle Japanese-inspired textures with vibrant turquoise accents that harmonize with the hotel’s coastal setting.
Sunset Pool Deck
The view from Palm Bar is through an arched doorway, past the outdoor dining patio, to the centerpiece of the hotel: Sunset Pool Deck, where a sunken, heated pool and patio serves as the hotel’s secluded sanctuary. With cabana beds, cushioned loungers, poolside service and attentive pool butlers, it is an oasis of privacy and gracious living with touches of Palm House’s playful coral color in the fabrics, terraces, fountains and pool deck. Sunset Pool Deck offers a full food and beverage menu and hourly surprises and delights, including Evian Spritzes and sunglass cleaning.
Palm House Guest Rooms
Palm House’s 58 guestrooms and 21 suites are spacious, averaging more than 550 square feet, making them some of the largest hotel guestrooms in Palm Beach. With a variety of room categories to suit all preferences, guests will find their favorite comforts, from soaking tubs and arched doorways to balconies and terraces that enhance Palm House’s signature indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The Terrace Rooms, which overlook the pool, feature lounging and dining patios that allow for poolside enjoyment from the comfort of one’s own private space.
Muza Labs chose a color palette of sea green, sand and coral for these coffered rooms and suites. Colorful, coral-colored headboards are accented by custom-made, woven wall sconces, all of which are framed by walls adorned with lattice and antique mirrors for a touch of elegance. First-floor rooms feature limestone flooring, while carpeting in the upper-floor rooms offers a contemporary interpretation of the markings found on seashells.
Palm House Expansive Suites
Among Palm House’s 21 suites, there are five even more spacious suites, including the Presidential and the Royal Palm. The 1,982-square-foot, two-story, one-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom Presidential Suite boasts two balconies overlooking the pool. The soaring, light-filled and luminous interior spaces are designed in a clean, fresh color palette of sea green, gold and linen. The living area’s coffered ceiling is covered in textured wallpaper and edged with a palm-leaf embossing. A pendant light of delicate, gold, metal palm leaves serves as the centerpiece of the room. The suite features a sweeping, second-floor bedroom that overlooks the living areas. Its Alaskan King bed, measuring 9’x9′, is the largest hotel bed in Palm Beach.
The Presidential Suite comes with a butler who will assist with personalized service throughout the guest’s stay and ensure that the butler’s pantry remains fully stocked with preferential items and Iconic Luxury Hotels’ new, proprietary gin. The suite can be configured into a two-, three- or four-bedroom suite with the addition of adjacent rooms.
The 1,464-square-foot, two-bedroom, two-bath Royal Palm Suite, like the Presidential Suite in color palette and design, boasts a 1,021-square-foot terrace.
Palm House Ballroom and Garden Terrace
Palm House’s signature coral color is carried into the 4,000-square-foot event space which includes a ballroom, pre-function space and an outdoor garden terrace and lawn facing the east side of the pool area. Bringing a sense of place to milestone events, all decor accents have been custom designed for Palm House and its surroundings, from the four, hand-blown coral-and-white, Murano-glass chandeliers and wall sconces, to the sea-spray patterned carpet. Floor-to-ceiling, arched mirrors and dramatic windows create a light and airy atmosphere for any celebration.
