Location

Dania Beach, FL, USA


A stylish transformation

"The once ordinary “airport” hotel has been reimagined into a vibrant destination resort, serving as a cornerstone for the nearby Design Center of the Americas (DCOTA) and the dynamic, fast-growing Dania Beach neighborhood.

The design of the Le Méridien Dania Beach at Fort Lauderdale Airport draws from the rich heritage and dynamic essence of Fort Lauderdale’s unique interplay of land, sea, and air. Combining creativity, sophistication, and a deep connection to its locale, the style embraces the timeless elegance of the Mid-Century Modern era while offering a fresh, modern twist."

As guests enter the hotel lobby, they are welcomed by an 8,540 sqft inlaid terrazo map of the city’s street sand waterways, designed by Pentagram’s own Paula Scher
