(Delray Beach, FL – December 15, 2014)  Cathy Balestriere, general manager of Crane’s Beach House Hotel, today announced that the popular, Key West-style boutique hotel has completed the dramatic transformation of four suites into exclusive and secluded high tech luxury villas, each with its own private balcony or patio. Now renamed as Crane’s Beach House Boutique Hotel & Luxury Villas, this $750,000 renovation started in July and the four new villas are now available for guests, starting at $599 per night.

"Crane's Beach House Hotel was proud to partner with Carrie Leigh Designs, a full service licensed interior design firm based in Delray Beach. This dramatic conversion of four suites into dazzling luxury villas is just the first phase of a major multi-year remodeling project that will strengthen and solidify our brand as the coolest place to stay in Delray Beach,” said Ms. Balestriere.

"The vision for the villas was to keep the artsy charm of Crane’s Beach House while enhancing the ‘beach chic’ experience with modern European touches,” added designer Carrie Leigh Bollella.  “The overall color scheme in each villa evoke a calm luxurious atmosphere, building on the surrounding ocean village environment, and guests will feel like they have entered their dream vacation home.”

With its newly opened luxury villas, Crane’s Beach House Hotel now combines its traditional, laid-back Key West-like environment – just footsteps away from both bustling Atlantic Avenue nightlife and a pristine Atlantic Ocean beach – with all the high tech amenities that today’s sophisticated travelers desire. For example, highlights of the new exclusive and secluded villas include large, flat screen Smart TVs with access to NetFlix, Bluetooth and WiFi

The new villas at Crane’s Beach House also feature the Beausommet mattress by Essentia, the “World's Only Natural Memory Foam mattress.” The resort is the first property in Florida to feature theses highly-acclaimed mattresses, providing a healthy, luxurious stay for guests.  Essentia mattresses are a smarter, healthier approach to sleep. Uniquely constructed using Hevea Milk (rubber tree sap), organic essential oils, natural plant extracts, and organic cotton, Essentia’s natural memory foam provides an optimal sleep environment for body and mind. Meeting the most important requirements of comfort, air quality and support, Essentia mattresses are recommended by pro athletes, celebrities and health gurus alike. The Beausommet model is designed to be incredibly cradling and pressure relieving, promoting repair and recovery of the body and mind. Guests sleeping in these new suites will wake up refreshed and ready to take on Florida adventures.

And in every villa can be found River Rock lamps with dim (or day) lighting, handcrafted artisan tables, plantation shutters, slate satin headboards, three dimensional glass plate artwork, wood plank porcelain flooring, deco quartz countertops and original paintings from local artists and galleries, including lue Gallery, Addison Gallery, Ford Fine Art, AR Gallery and Steven Greenwald Designs.

Crane's Beach House also designed a first floor villa fully equipped in accordance with ADA specifications. This room has a wider doorway for wheelchairs, a roll in shower and drop counters for easy access.

"I am particularly pleased that in addition to Carrie Leigh Designs, the other three companies behind the transformation are also based right here in Delray Beach,” said Balestriere. “The architect was Francisco Pérez-Azúa of Perez Design LLC, construction was managed by Bill Branning of BSA Corporation, and the lush new gardens and foliage throughout Crane’s Beach House, including the exotic new fire pit area for the villas, was created by 360 Landscape Design.”
