Four Seasons Hotel and Residences Fort Lauderdale: Tara Bernerd 22-story oceanfront yachting palace with Evelyn’s Mediterranean and dual oceanfront pools
Reigning gracefully along North Fort Lauderdale Beach Boulevard directly overlooking the Atlantic Ocean in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States (just steps from Las Olas Boulevard, luxury yacht marinas, and the Intracoastal Waterway), Four Seasons Hotel and Residences Fort Lauderdale opened as South Florida’s premier oceanfront yachting palace. Masterfully designed by architect Kobi Karp with interiors by Tara Bernerd & Partners and landscape architecture by Fernando Wong, the 189-room luxury palace draws inspiration from the golden age of Riviera yachting. Featuring the acclaimed Eastern Mediterranean restaurant Evelyn’s Fort Lauderdale, the breezy poolside cafe Honey Belle by celebrity Chef Florence Fabricant, two third-floor outdoor heated oceanfront swimming pools, and the serene The Spa at Four Seasons, this property is Fort Lauderdale’s ultimate luxury grand palace.
Arrival introduces travelers to unvarnished mid-century yachting glamour and Atlantic coastal splendour: liveried valets greet guests beneath the undulating nautical canopy on Ocean Boulevard before entering the light-filled lobby with brass boat ribs, travertine floors, curated contemporary art, and chilled Florida citrus tea. Day-one logistics focus on coordinating bespoke Fort Lauderdale yachting, beach, and culinary pursuits: walking directly onto the white sands of Fort Lauderdale Beach (steps away), cruising the Intracoastal Waterway and mega-yacht marinas by private charter (5 minutes away), shopping the art galleries and boutiques of Las Olas Boulevard (5 minutes away), swimming in the dual third-floor heated oceanfront pools, indulging in sea salt and marine collagen therapies at the spa, enjoying sunset spritzes at Honey Belle, and reserving dinner at Evelyn’s.
Palace living balances vibrant yachting lifestyle with serene Atlantic wellness: the spa features 6 private treatment suites, eucalyptus steam rooms, saunas, the dual oceanfront pools, and therapies utilizing organic marine botanicals and sea minerals. Dining is an extraordinary coastal culinary summit: Eastern Mediterranean gastronomy at Evelyn’s (featuring wood-grilled octopus, lamb chops, mezze, and Mediterranean Grand Crus), coastal Southern classics at Honey Belle, cocktails at the Lounge, and poolside dining on the terrace.
Accommodations comprise 189 rooms and luxury executive suites styled by Tara Bernerd in crisp yachting navy, teak accents, and private furnished balconies framing the Atlantic Ocean ranging from 44 to 220 square metres. Each residence features plush king beds with custom linens, and marble bathrooms with deep soaking bathtubs, embedded TV mirrors, and custom amenities.
