Life House South Beach

An eclectic yet curated beach cottage and artist's retreat, this landmark 1930s Tudor cottage, designed by Henry Hohauser, was a unique departure from Miami Beach's Art Deco norm. Located in the South of Fifth neighborhood, steps from the ocean and yet removed from the bustle of South Beach tourists, the house's narrative evolved organically from its natural environment. From the lobby cafe to the bar and backyard kitchen, the property embodies the home of an artist, writer, or painter living by the seashore. The guest room experience exudes a light and airy beach retreat, with coastal details such as whitewashed wood plank walls and ceilings. Each room features a uniquely playful layer of art, color, and texture, reminiscent of an artist's bedroom. Le Labo bath products in each room provide a refreshingly comfortable home away from home.
