About the project

The Hilton Miami Airport Blue Lagoon Expansion is a major hotel addition by New York owner-operator MCR beside its existing Hilton Miami Airport Blue Lagoon at 5101 Blue Lagoon Drive in Miami, Florida. The plan adds roughly 1,000 guestrooms across two 14-story towers, along with structured parking, lifting the Blue Lagoon campus to more than 1,500 keys. Designed by Behar Font & Partners with landscape by Walk Landscape Architecture and Urban Design, the twin towers feature sixth-floor pool decks and guestrooms sized from about 320 to 860 square feet, expanding one of the largest airport-adjacent hotel campuses near Miami International Airport.
