Nestled along the breathtaking scenery of the Miami River, CASA NEOS is a 30,000-square-foot paradisiacal agora bringing world-class dining, an exclusive members’ beach club, exquisite design, customized service, and five-star boutique accommodations to the heart of Miami.

The project is comprised of four uniquely appointed settings: CASA NEOS Restaurant, an eponymous, two-floor Mediterranean restaurant; CASA NEOS Boutique Hotel, a four-suite, hyper-luxury boutique hotel inspired by the Earth’s four core elements; NOORA, a rooftop restaurant and lounge whose unique design and offerings pay homage to the vibrant Moroccan and North African cultures; and CASA NEOS MM, a members-only beach club. By shifting through each of the unique spaces, this revolutionary concept will offer a deeply sensorial experience from start to finish.

CASA NEOS is founded and operated by Riviera Dining Group (RDG), a leading luxury lifestyle and hospitality group with concepts across Florida and rapid expansion plans into global markets slated for the next 24 months. The hospitality masterminds behind MILA Miami and AVA Winter Park are breaking into the hotel industry, redefining lifestyle in Miami and beyond with a hyper-luxe, multi-use concept. The latest in a string of RDG projects, CASA NEOS plays a key role in the revitalization of the historic riverside and is a striking addition to the rising epicenter of the Magic City, cementing the area’s coming of age.

“We are thrilled to make our debut as hoteliers with CASA NEOS, a venture that will set the new standard for hospitality and stand as the focal point of the revitalized Miami River neighborhood. As pioneers in our industry, we continue to break the mold with our concepts and CASA NEOS will serve as a model for how hospitality will grow and evolve in the future, combining multiple distinct concepts within one unified space,” says Gregory Galy, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Riviera Dining Group.

Aesthetically conceptualized by Lazaro Rosa Violan, CASA NEOS is inspired by travels from the shores of Greece to the riads of Morocco, and each detail reflects the rich cultural influences of these regions. Upon entering, guests are welcomed into a world of artful bliss, where sleek design elements and natural woods harmonize with verdant foliage, creating a slice of pure serenity.

Staying true to its roots, the interiors celebrate the rich variety of Mediterranean cultures with stone and stucco walls ensuring a cool respite from the warm Miami sun; natural fabrics such as cotton, jute, and linen allowing for gentle tropical breezes to flood the space; and hand-painted ceramics adorning the walls with bursts of color and vibrancy. From the authentic vintage Moroccan rugs and Zellige tile, fabrics sourced from Turkey, Spain, and France, and hand-braided leathers, every element of CASA NEOS has been meticulously crafted to celebrate the beauty and charm of these faraway lands, inviting exploration and enchantment.

“Bringing the magic back to hospitality, each RDG venue has its own identity, creating a holistic experience from the moment of entry. Every aspect of CASA NEOS, from the unique scent to the handpicked details, has a purpose and is designed to make guests feel right at home, while simultaneously transporting them to exotic regions around the globe,” says Marine Giron-Galy, Chief Branding Officer and Partner of Riviera Dining Group. “Influenced by the love of hospitality that’s central to our French roots, CASA NEOS was born out of our genuine love for curating one-of-a-kind experiences and bringing a touch of international flair to Miami.”

Blending Cycladic design with first-class service and understated opulence CASA NEOS MM Beach Club is a designated members-only riverfront escape for MM members, presenting members the exclusive opportunity to partake in a premier network of restaurants and lounges. This expansion adds another layer of privatized experiences beyond the existing MILA MM and AVA MM.

Inspired by sun-drenched summers, the urban oasis hugs the right perimeter of the structure, featuring a warm saltwater pool with a wooden deck, oversized parasols, plush sunbeds, deluxe private cabanas, tantalizing cocktails, elevated bottle service, and a full menu of Mediterranean-inspired bites and sushi rolls. Perched along the dock, the co-branded 45-foot MM boat in partnership with Vanquish Yachts will also be available for members’ use and taking sophistication to the next level, members will also have access to exclusive activations and world-class partnerships. A place for experience-seekers, CASA NEOS MM Beach Club welcomes an elegant and tasteful community of like-minded individuals defined by their genuine thirst for discovery and refined indulgence.

Transcending through the first and second floors, global flavors meet modern Mediterranean cuisine at CASA NEOS Restaurant, taking guests on a multi-sensory journey through the sights and sounds of the Aegean Islands. The two-story restaurant marries architectural beauty and culinary artistry through refined aesthetics, lavish comfort, and natural elements, seamlessly transitioning serene days into magical evenings. Conceptualized by Chef Michaël Michaelidis – Head of Culinary at Riviera Dining Group, with 26 Michelin stars worth of experience under his belt – every dish at CASA NEOS restaurant begins with the freshest and highest-quality ingredients, evolving in harmony with the seasons.

From fresh fish of the day, a selection of prime meat offerings, and homemade bread baked to perfection in wood-fired ovens, each creation awakens the senses and leaves a lasting impression on the palate. Open for lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch, CASA NEOS Restaurant is where Mediterranean cuisine, sensational mixology, and expert craftsmanship come together, immersing guests in a delightful gastronomic adventure that goes beyond the expected.

“I’m honored to be a part of a new chapter in Miami’s culinary scene. From the authentic and fresh ingredients of CASA NEOS Restaurant to the rich, aromatic notes of NOORA, CASA NEOS promises a fully immersive experience for all the senses,” says Chef Michaël Michaelidis, Head of Culinary at Riviera Dining Group. “Throughout all CASA NEOS’ offerings, seasonal flavors meet modern techniques, complemented with my knowledge of traditional French flavors and techniques.”

Making way to the third floor is CASA NEOS Boutique Hotel, an exclusive, ultra-luxurious four-suite boutique hotel, opening in Fall 2024, awaits. Drawing inspiration from the four core elements of Mother Nature, each suite has its own identity: GAIA, TERRA, AURA, and LUNA. A tranquil sanctuary, the curated design of each suite sets the stage with a cozy, chic atmosphere featuring warm, muted tones, natural surfaces, handcrafted details, original artwork, reclaimed textures, and handmade linens. Boasting panoramic views of the Miami River, king-size beds, full bathrooms with rainforest showers, and extensive outdoor terraces, each suite is designed to cater to every need and desire while maintaining a sense of seclusion.

Reflecting the hotel’s deep-rooted connection to spirituality, provenance, and the abundance of the Earth, CASA NEOS Boutique Hotel fuses bohemian glamor, modern, mystique, and timeless charm; a place where leisure meets luxury and a playground for fostering memorable memories.

Also being unveiled in Fall 2024, the final stop on the CASA NEOS adventure is at NOORA, a rooftop escape paying homage to Moroccan and North African cultures through vibrant cuisine, luxe ambiance, and hypnotic music; all beautifully tied together by a glorious European-limestone

fountain and fragrant orange blossom tree, a symbol of good fortune and prosperity. Featuring splendid skyline views, NOORA offers a MediterrAfrican journey, magnified by the mystifying flavor profiles and traditions of Lebanon, Turkey, and Morocco. The culinary odyssey will heavily feature aromatic toasted spices such as cumin, paprika, and coriander seeds that are enhanced by sweet hints of honey and rich notes of saffron to awaken the palette. The place to be and be seen, NOORA is where captivating mixology, exotic fusions, and mesmerizing beats come together to tell a tale that extends far beyond the cuisine itself.

An idyllic haven for those seeking a world of wanderlust, CASA NEOS is inspired by KAIROS – or the feeling of being at the right place, at the right time – blending epicurean excellence, luxurious lifestyle, and elevated nightlife, brought to life with a relaxed spirit and laid-back ambiance that is quintessentially European. Setting a new standard for the five-star experience, CASA NEOS is the city’s first-of-its-kind and brings something unique to the market, revealing an unparalleled level of exclusivity, sophistication, and originality alongside the glamorous, innovative, and transportive experience that Riviera Dining Group is known for.
