The Setai

Asian simplicity and a passionate devotion to service add a transcendent quality to every stay at The Setai. Set in a prized location on Miami’s South Beach, the ultraluxe hotel pampers guests with a host of plush amenities: Dux beds finished in Irish linens, flat-screen LCD and plasma TVs, Bose surround-sound DVD-CD systems and Lavazza espresso machines in all 131 suites measuring 600 square feet and up.

Recreation at the resort centers on the pristine stretch of white sand that fronts the hotel. Sunbathers and people watchers while away the hours on comfortable beach daybeds and water pods or dip into any of three swimming pools close by. More active guests visit the fitness center, charter a yacht, hire a personal trainer or try their hand at golf, tennis, and deep-sea diving nearby. A massage or Balinese-inspired treatment at the spa (or in suite) rejuvenates even the weariest of travelers.

South Beach’s year-round climate creates a demand for outdoor meetings. The Setai answers that call with courtyard, poolside and terrace locations ideal for cocktail receptions or sit-down dinners. Four indoor venues round out the offerings. Some visitors find their Zen moment at day’s end with a visit to The Restaurant, where they dine on sophisticated international fare indoors or alfresco, surrounded by quiet ponds and garden pergolas.

CREATED BY KRAVITZ DESIGN INC
MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, May 19, 2008 The Setai, a luxury hotel and residences in Miami, announces the opening of The Setai Recording Studio, a state-of-the-art digital and analog recording facility created by Kravitz Design Inc.

The Setai Recording Studio is located in a two-floor penthouse suite in The Setai with
breathtaking ocean views and private outdoor patio. The studio exemplifies the serene Asian tone that defines The Setai with cast bronze, textured slate, and rich teak woods. Kravitz Design combines these elements with high concept vintage furniture, plush wool shag carpeting and custom hand-screened wallpaper to create an unexpected environment that is elegant, warm and luxurious.

"In building The Setai Recording Studio, we brought everything we've learned throughout our careers in performing and recording to create an environment that supports and encourages the making of music" said Lenny Kravitz, President, Kravitz Design Inc.

"The opening of The Setai Recording Studio exemplifies our dedication to serving music professionals. With this latest addition we look forward to The Setai's continued success as a top destination for members of the entertainment industry" says Mr. Hansjoerg Meier, General Manager at The Setai.

The 2,500 square foot studio is outfitted with the industry's premiere equipment for both
analog & digital recording. A Solid State Logic C-200 Digital Console and ATC monitors allow engineers to quickly jump between projects while preserving the flow of a session. The recording facility is comprised of two live rooms, a vocal booth, control room, lounge and conference room to accommodate the diverse needs of the film, recording and entertainment industry. The studio also offers 5.1 high-definition audio and can be utilized for both film and video shoots. Since opening its doors this spring, a diverse list of some of music's top artists have chosen to record there, including Timbaland, Chris Cornell, Mary J Blige, Jay Z and Cat Power.

Matt Knobel (Lenny Kravitz, Ricky Martin), who has twenty-plus years of industry
experience, was hand selected by Kravitz to serve as the Studio Director and Chief Engineer. Knobel has worked extensively with Kravitz over the past decade. In addition, Matt brings to The Setai Recording Studio credits on more than sixty albums; numerous commercial, film and television specials; as well as a background in live touring and building of state-of-the-art studios and production suites.
