The Next Chapter

The Plan

The Mirasol will be restored to its former glamour as a sophisticated Mediterranean Revival property, featuring bespoke hotel suites, a limited collection of hotel-serviced luxurious waterfront condominiums, and intimate gathering spaces for Davis Islands residents and guests.

Elegant and Thoughtful Design

Fortunately, many original items and interior design elements within the Mirasol have been preserved over the past 100 years. As we are with the renovation of the property back to a boutique hotel, luxury residence, and community anchor, we will also be preserving as many period-based elements as possible. Furniture and interior elements that must be acquired will be curated with intention and respect for the refined sophistication authentic to the structure.

Amenities

As called once before, and we will again, the “Crown Jewel of Davis Islands.” The Mirasol will offer:

  • Up to 118 bespoke hotel rooms and suites

  • Up to 16 private condominium residences

  • Community-focused amenities, potentially including: a restaurant, a rooftop sky garden, a coffee bar, a wellness spaces, a formal outdoor space with a small pool in its existing location, and garden

Smart Improvements

To ensure the long-term resilience of the building, and neighborhood, the project will include sustainable and storm-resiliency measures, including:

  • North & South Wings – Two new structures will replace the property’s current asphalt surface parking lots, incorporating new infrastructure to improve stormwater and resiliency at the site. To the north, a 2-story structure above flood elevation will house new residences over a full-screened level of ground-level parking for the residents and their guests. The south wing, connecting to the historic Mirasol tower, will include luxurious hotel rooms and spacious suites, in a 3-story structure over a level of dedicated hotel and visitor parking.

  • Parking and stormwater solutions - The Mirasol will increase the amount of on-site parking. The parking areas will incorporate enhanced stormwater protection, meeting today’s best practices and standards. The result will be an improvement in onsite stormwater retention and it will limit stormwater flowing onto surrounding streets.

  • Modern infrastructure upgrades - These improvements will meet the highest safety, wind, and flood standards and all local and state requirements.

  • Storm hardening infrastructure - Critical building infrastructure will be moved out of the existing basement to a higher elevation, and other flood-proofing measures will be taken, to reduce future storm damage risks.

  • Operations and noise planning - Hotel and event operations will respect the neighborhood’s residential needs and the hotel’s elegant environment. Outdoor events will be limited. Also, work-related trucks and loading will be accommodated in enclosed loading docks accessed off of Davis Blvd.
