Mr. C Hotel & Residences is making its debut in West Palm Beach, one of Florida’s most affluent neighborhoods, both culturally and fiscally. Mr. C West Palm Beach is the first of 10+ residential developments in the area to begin vertical construction and the only to offer unmatched proximity to a walkable downtown.
On Aug. 21, prominent South Florida real estate development company, Terra, and Morrison family-owned firm, Sympatico Real Estate, announced the closing of a $285 million loan financed by TKYO Capital for the construction of Mr. C Hotel & Residences West Palm Beach. Having broken ground mere days ago, construction for the luxury 110 room and 146 branded residence property commences at 70% sold.
“Breaking ground on Mr. C Hotel & Residences marks a new era of quality and convenience in downtown,” says David Martin, CEO of Terra. “With walkable access to excellent retail and dining, the property offers a turnkey lifestyle defined by curated design, elevated service, and effortless sophistication that no other project in West Palm Beach has.”
Located less than half-a-mile from the Kravis Center of the Performing Arts and the Palm Beach County Convention Center, the property promises to be one of the most exciting new developments in decades and a destination for distinguished Florida residents as well as domestic and international visitors alike.
Giuseppe Cipriani opened Harry’s Bar, a 15 by 30 foot space at the end of a dead-end street in Venice in 1931 with two essentials in mind: the customer must not feel oppressed by the décor and there must be light. With this, Cipriani went on to build one of the most illustrious brands in luxury hospitality creating simplistic yet effortlessly elegant restaurants, and later clubs, hotels, and residences. A tastemaker in every sense of the word, Cipriani, inspired by Venetian painter Giovanni Bellini concocted a delightful drink with little white peaches which is still sipped today––often at brunch. And Carpaccio, a dish of paper-thin slices of raw beef sirloin, also came from Harry’s Bar and found its namesake with Renaissance painter Vittore Carpaccio.
Having traveled frequently while working for their family business, the fourth generation Cipriani brothers’ vision for Mr. C was to make “today’s travel experience effortless through sophisticated design, old-world simplicity, and European glamour.”
For those who live with an inherent sense of style and believe that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication, the meticulously crafted Mr. C Lakeview promises a truly unparalleled lifestyle experience. Evocative elegance and contemporary comforts work in perfect harmony with the region’s acclaimed arts scene and vibrant cultural infusions.
“Every Mr. C property is an expression of our way of life, with warmth, attention to detail, and a relaxed sense of sophistication,” says Ignazio Cipriani, Co-Owner of Mr. C Hotels. “Bringing that sensibility to West Palm Beach is something we are truly proud of. This project reflects the way our family approaches hospitality, where design, service, and atmosphere come together with intention.”
Esteemed architecture firm Arquitectonica and award-winning design studio Meyer Davis helmed in tandem the layout and design of Mr. C’s fourth residence venture–-the second one located in Florida. An ode to the remarkable glamour of the Italian Riviera in the 1950s, the interiors are relaxed and refined, eliciting a unique feel of urbanity.
Meyer Davis drew inspiration from local sailing culture and the vivacious energy of West Palm Beach which you see in softly curved furniture, coastal shades of blue, lavish marble, and grained-wood detailing. Thoughtful layouts evoke a sense of openness, mimicking that of the sweeping ocean views framed by the units’ expansive floor-to-ceiling windows.
Each home exhibits premium materials, refined finishes, and subtle design elements, reflecting Cipriani’s original principles of ambiance: one must not feel oppressed by the décor and there must be light. Select residences feature spacious corner exposures and generous outdoor terraces.
“The hotel and residences will offer a lifestyle that is elevated yet comfortable, grounded in tradition and built for how people live today,” says Cipriani.
Besides breathtaking views of the Intracoastal Waterway and city skyline, every corner of the stunning waterfront property boasts choice amenities that are intrinsic to Mr. C’s signature hospitality. Highlights include a garden-level lap pool with private cabanas, a poolside bar and lounge area; a fully equipped fitness center with dedicated rooms for yoga, pilates and Peloton workouts; a spa complete with sauna and steam rooms; and curated art installations in shared spaces.
In typical Mr. C fashion, there is a private members’ lounge that is an intimate setting for relaxing or gathering with neighbors, enhancing the sense of community and exclusivity that has defined the lifestyle for nearly 15 years.
On the 26th floor of the luxury development residents can imbibe and dine at Mr. C’s Bellini restaurant and rooftop lounge––also a fixture at their Coconut Grove property. On the menu you will find authentic flavors from all across Italy ranging in form from well-loved traditional Cipriani dishes to newer artisan plates for the perfect balance of classic and contemporary that Mr. C executes so expertly.
The best hospitality tailors to the needs of the individual and the fourth generation Cipriani brothers’ understanding of this principle, certainly sets them apart. Upon arrival, you are welcomed through a private porte-cochère with round-the-clock valet and front desk assistance. The residence is appointed with a professional hospitality team available to coordinate anything from housekeeping, appointment-scheduling, and pet care to package handling, in-home dining, and travel support. Not to mention a wellness-centric concierge to arrange services such as spa treatments, personal training, beauty appointments, and even nutrition guidance. Simply put, Mr. C makes getting the most out of living effortless.
Burgeoning with new developments––especially in luxury housing and Class A offices––West Palm Beach is quickly maturing into a high-investment destination fueled by a wave of capital, expanding culture, and unique recreational offerings. “As a brokerage that specializes in representing the region’s most compelling properties, we are proud to be aligned with a project as thoughtfully executed as Mr. C Hotel & Residences West Palm Beach,” says Jay Parker, CEO of Douglas Elliman Florida.
To bring to market something as bespoke as Mr. C you not only have to know the property, but understand the lifestyle––and luxury real estate giant Douglas Elliman does.
“From its elevated aesthetic to its connection with a globally respected brand, this development offers something truly distinct in today’s market,” says Parker. “The combination of design, service, and location has already resonated strongly with buyers, and we expect that momentum to continue as construction progresses.”
