Aquatic design specialists Cloward H2O have designed a U$150m (€134.8m, £118.6m) waterpark for the JW Marriot Miami Turnberry Resort and Spa in Aventura, Florida. Said to be the largest playscape of its kind in Miami-Dade County, the Tidal Cove features a surf simulator, a 60 ft (5.5 sq m) tower with seven water slides, a children's area, an adults-only pool, and a lazy river lined with tropical plants.
Called the "FlowRider Triple", the wave simulator was created by WhiteWater and can accommodate up to three surfers.
The resort also plays host to a variety of poolside amenities, including 25 cabanas and two dining outlets.
Nichols Brosch Wurst Wolfe & Associates designed the Miami Turnberry's recently completed 16-storey Orchid Tower, while New York-based studio Champalimaud outfitted its 325 new guest rooms.
Speaking on the renovations, Mitzi Gaskins, vice president and global brand leader at Marriott, said they "exemplify the vibrant culture of Miami and allow each guest to enjoy both elevated and sophisticated experiences".
