Some of South Florida’s most upscale hotels are now offering guests a new luxury — permanent residences at the amenity-rich resorts. One of the many perks of traveling to a luxury hotel is the amenities that come along with it. Now, some top-tier hotels are taking the permanent move a step further by offering things like room service, package delivery service, 24-hour concierge and immediate access to all hotel amenities onsite for their year-round, 24/7 “guests.”
