Never Just Stay, #StayInspired at Conrad Miami

[additional-authors]
August 5, 2016

At the rancois Calixte on the concierge team to Jason Dixon, tennis instructor, went out of their way to make my experience memorable.

The Conrad Concierge developed 1/3/5 experiences so that whatever city you are in and whether you have one, three or five hours to journey you will maximize your time. At Conrad Miami, you can see sunrise and sunset and they will help you take advantage of every waking hour! If you are staying in the Brickell area for business (the third largest financial area after London and NYC), make sure to take advantage of the weekday lunch time specials and all this hotel in the sky has to offer. The “Taste of Time” is a set lunch with three courses and will take 45minutes or it is free. The items change every three weeks so make sure to test this out more than once! One of my favorite things is to arrive in a new city, check in and have a massage. The Spa and Fitness area on the 24th floor are well appointed and I love their robes! My massage by Nadege was fantastic and I was well on my way towards relaxation.

I loved the views from the 25th floor at Atrio Restaurant and in LVL25 bar at the first Conrad Hotel in the USA! Cooking with Chef Virgile Brandel from Champage, France, was a fantastic experience. I had never heard of or eaten Avocado fries and they are now one of my new favorite things. I have several videos with him where he taught me  how to make Avocado Fries and the Miami area specialty: A Cuban Sandwich! Erin who assisted me with the filming said it was fantastic! We enjoyed many meals during our stay. Enjoy all the videos about how to make the food and drinks and what we ate. One day after lunch, Stephen Carter, head of Food and Beverage, taught me to make a Miami Mojito, Thyme Well Spent and an Old Cuban. He even offered me a job! Who knows what I will do next!
