The newest hotels in South Florida are already making a name for themselves.
Open just since March, the Metropolitan by COMO, Miami Beach has earned the top spot for the city on TripAdvisor, followed in second place by another newcomer, The Redbury South Beach. That hotel, sister to the Hollywood Redbury in Los Angeles, has another designation to brag about: making the Travel + Leisure 2014 "It List," which highlights the world's best new hotels.
Despite those plaudits, the biggest hotel headlines are likely to come over the course of the next year. This fall, the long-awaited Edition Miami Beach - a collaboration between hotelier Ian Schrager and Marriott International - is expected to open, followed early next year by the first phase of the massive Faena development in Miami Beach.
While Palm Beach County is welcoming a freshly renovated resort this spring and Broward has a new chain near the airport, the bulk of the recent building has happened in Miami-Dade.
For many travelers, the new options in the area might just make a decision on where to stay even harder, said Juliana Shallcross, managing editor for web publication HotelChatter.
"My feeling is that people always love Miami," she said, adding that visitors are likely to pick their hotel based on location, pool scene or spa.
"Miami just has so many options that it's so hard for travelers to pick the right hotel," she said.
Which is where we come in. For out-of-towners looking to sample what's new on the scene, here is our roundup of the latest additions.
-Courtyard Cadillac Miami Beach Oceanfront
What's new: The Art Deco hotel, built in 1940 and expanded about a decade later, unveiled a $25 million expansion in February. The new wing includes a 93-room tower, extended lobby decorated with vintage Miami Beach posters, meeting space, new pool and cabanas.
Bragging rights: Two pools (the large original with an 8 1 / 2foot deep end and a new infinity-like version). The 356-room property is separated from the beach by only a boardwalk. Rooms break out of the Courtyard by Marriott mold in the new tower, with bright, beachy beige and teal palettes. One of the suites we checked out in the new section has a balcony spacious enough to host small parties - and even has a hot tub outside.
Caveat Emptor: The older sections of the 356-room hotel have not been renovated in years, so make sure you know what section you're booking. The location is a few blocks south of the clubs and restaurants at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach and a long walk (or short cab ride) from South Beach. Construction on another hotel is ongoing next door.
Best for: Business travelers loyal to the Courtyard by Marriott brand; families who want quality pool-and-beach time.
Details: 3925 Collins Ave., Miami Beach; 305-538-3373; hotelcadillacmiamibeach.com.
Rates and deals: Weekend rates for most of June start at $239 a night in the older tower, $289 for the newer section; Florida residents with ID get a 20 percent discount, subject to availability.
-EB Hotel Miami
What's new: The former Wells Fargo bank building just north of Miami International Airport has been transformed into a high-end hotel after a major overhaul (with an attached Wells Fargo branch). The six-story, 133-room property opened last June, the first U.S. location for a company that has several hotels in Venezuela and Argentina.
Bragging rights: From the marble floors in the lobby to smart-room technology that uses motion sensors to know when rooms are occupied, the hotel is unexpectedly posh for its location. Extra-thick windows make for quiet surroundings, despite the proximity to runways. All rooms are set up for business, with free Wi-Fi and desks; business suites have a living room at the entrance, with a TV set that can be used for presentations. Most showers are surrounded by glass walls that allow a view of the bedroom TV (with a screen for privacy).

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Dolce Villa Providence
Nice hotel with awful management
My parents live in Connecticut and come to visit me quite often. I go to college around Providence. We were out to dinner on Federal Hill and saw the Hotel so we figured we would give it a tour. The hotel is extremely nice and the two bedroom rooms we were quoted a price of $199 per night execpt for college graduation. My mom called back the next day to book a room for a weekend in May. The price they quoted was $389 due to college graduation. She then picked a date in June, she was then quoted $339. She called back and talked to a manager who quoted first $350 then $240. My mom was going to book it a $260 for the two bedroom, when she said that there would be more than two people staying in the two bedroom the manager jacked the price up to $310. The staff and manager also were not very friendly and acted as though my parents were doing them a favor by staying there. The hotel has a lot of potential but poor management and a lack of consistancy for their pricing.
Absolutely love this hotel!
This is a little boutique-style hotel in the middle of the italian district called federal hill in Providence. The hotel itself reminds me of the boutiques in South Beach, or the hillview hotels in Italy. The rooms are similar to the W Hotels variety. They have every amenity you can think of. The staff there is wonderful, they help you out in any way possible. They will call taxis for you, valet your car, get you reservations at restaurants. The best thing one staff member did (and said that they all do) is walked us up to our hotel room and explained all the features of it to us. That was very helpful and we would absolutely stay there again.
Go Here
This place is great. It's location is perfect because in the middle of a beautiful cobblestone plaza with a fountain and restaurants and shops all around. Which is a nice setting to walk out into and start your day. The hotel itself is super modern and it has memory foam beds, and it's so much more comfortable than a big chain hotel for my taste. And, they will order groceries for you to cook in the kitchen...yeah it had a full size stove and microwave and it was way more than a kitchenette. I had a great time and I will be back.
Dolce Villa is great all around. service, location,comfort, etc. For those who haven't seen this hotel yet take a look at these great photos. I liked it so much it actually felt like a home away from home.
I loved my stay at Dolce Villa. My husband and I decided to plan a romantic getaway and tried the "all suite boutique style hotel" for the weekend. It was great, the suite was amazing! Everything is very classy, white on white, fireplace and a wonderful whirpool tub. The hotel is right smack in the middle of Historic Federal Hill with many great restaurants and downtown at walking distance. Its like being in little Italy. We had dringks at Gepettos, dinner at Mediterraneo dessert at Cafe Dolce Vita and then danced all night to Latin rhythms at the Club at Mediterraneo. We had a blast, I highly recommend this experience to everyone.
This is how hotels should be!
the rates are great, its located in a beautiful italian style piazza and you can walk a just few steps to find entertainment.
It feels like you are in Italy!
This is truly an unique place.
My wife and I needed some time off together and away from our kids, but we didn't have enough time to go too far, therefore we decided to stay in town. We are both very fussy and, above all, we needed a place that didn't make us feel we were in town.
We heard about a small hotel that just opened in the heart of Federal Hill, which is the destination for fine dining restaurants in Providence. Perfect. We decided to take a look, and they were kind enough to take us for a tour even before we booked a room. What a place. We immediately felt we were in Italy. The decor is completely candid white: floors, walls, furniture, appliances, everything. Every room has a full kitchen. Yes, a FULL KITCHEN. Big refrigerator, stove, oven, etc.. Never seen that before. Every bathroom has a jacuzzi, and the double bedrooms even have a fireplace.
Our room had a TV in the living room and one in the bedroom with both VCR and DVD player. The mattress is memory-foam. When I woke up in the morning I didn't have my usual back ache.
The service was unusually personalized, something we never experienced in the big hotels. More like in Italy.
We fell in love with the place. They had an introductory price of $125.00. I don't know how long it's going to last, but we can't wait until we go back. Kids permitting, of course.
Best kept secret in Littly Italy
The best-kept secret right now in the world of travel is a little hotel in Providence, Rhode Island, called Dolce Villa. But it won't be long before everyone will be hearing about this little gem, right in the heart of Federal Hill, which is the Little Italy section of the city. Our daughter goes to college in Providence, and we love to visit her every chance we get. We always go to Federal Hill for shopping in the Italian markets, which is how we found out about Dolce Villa. It's like staying in Italy and nothing like your normal hotel experience. The rooms are ultramodern with every amenity you could ever wish for, even flat-screen TVs with DVD, VCR and CD players. Our room had a fully equipped kitchen, which is great if you like to have breakfast in bed, or if you want to do any entertaining in your room. But the real bonus is that this beautiful hotel is within walking distance of so many great Italian restaurants. We hope to make Dolce Villa our regular hotel every time we travel to Providence to see our daughter.
Gorgeous New Hotel Boutique
We just spent a fabulous weekend in Providence, Rhode Island, where we stayed at a brand new boutique hotel called Dolce Villa. It was like no hotel I have ever stayed at - there are only 14 rooms, but they are all suites. The hotel is simply stunning, from the white marble floors to the white leather furniture in every room. I can't wait to go back this summer when all the flowers will be in bloom and WaterFire will be taking place in the city - an event not to be missed.
Best experience ever
I have been all over the United States, Mexico and Europe, and stayed at some really nice resorts, but nothing can compare to my recent getaway at Dolce Villa, a small hotel in Providence, RI, with nothing but gorgeous suites that I can't stop talking about it. From the outside, the hotel looks like something you'd see by the sea in Italy, very Old World with charming architecture. But the minute I stepped into the lobby, I knew I was in for an unusual experience. The whole interior of this hotel is white! White marble floors, white leather sofas and chairs, an all-white bed with a memory-foam mattress. I had a beautiful suite with a full kitchen, and I was told that the two-bedroom suites have remote-controlled fireplaces. I'm already planning a return trip with friends.

SAN ANTONIO It looked reckless, this shot Tim Duncan took. It looked awkward and flailing. It looked like he was hoping for a bailout call. It looked like it had no chance. It looked a lot like something Blake Griffin would do, actually. Except Duncan made it. Duncan's sloppy falling layupy thing came with about six minutes left in the San Antonio Spurs' 108-92 win over the Los Angeles Clippers in game one of the second round of the NBA's Western Conference playoffs Tuesday in San Antonio. It gave Duncan two of his 26 points. He also had 10 rebounds and he was 12-for-20 from the floor, leading a Spurs offense that shot 49 percent, made 13 3-pointers had the Clippers marveling at its balance. "He's the anchor," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. Duncan was the superior four-man in the game, and how many times has that been true? Someday there will be a transition, one of those proverbial torch passings, and some other power forward will become the best in the Western Conferen...

The new $250 KitchenAid Siphon Brewer makes fantastically tasty coffee using vacuum and vapor pressure, but is tricky to operate and clean.
It might look the part of a $500 machine, but the KitchenAid Pro Line didn't toast any better than the $30 Hamilton Beach Classic Chrome Toaster.
Buying the KitchenAid 4-Slice Manual only makes sense if you have a weakness for retro appliance looks, otherwise you'd be better served by cheaper machines which make toast better and faster.
These machines might do more than you'd expect, but the prices for each are out of this world.

Seven credit unions go first with V.me offering through Card Services for Credit Unions.
Credit cards continue to be among the most productive but little appreciated credit union assets, according to executives whose job it is to help credit union learn to manage their card portfolios more profitably.
CSCU analysts say that roughly 15% of a credit union's members on average use that credit card.
Recent announcements from Visa and MasterCard have set the stage for the U.S. implementing EMV/chip cards.
Moving transactions from ACH, checks and cash to debit cards helps credit unions both reduce their costs and improve their revenues.

Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer announced this afternoon that No. 1 running back Carlos Hyde has been suspended pending results of a Columbus police investigation of his being a person of interest in a weekend assault against a woman in a Downtown bar.
Meyer also was dealing with legal news concerning three other players, including All-Big Ten cornerback Bradley Roby, who was arrested early yesterday morning in Bloomington, Ind., after an incident in a bar. According to Monroe County court records, Roby is facing a misdemeanor battery charge resulting in bodily injury. According to the report, he had been escorted out of the bar after a disturbance, tried to re-enter the establishment, and was subdued by bouncers at the bar before being taken into custody.
Roby, who chose to return for his junior season -- his fourth year in school -- instead of going to the NFL, has been listed on several preseason watch lists for various national awards as well as being projected as an All-American.
Roby, expected to attend the Big Ten preseason kickoff luncheon Wednesday and Thursday in Chicago, will be kept home and could face further disciplinary action as his case unfolds.
Meyer also announced that freshman lineman T.J. Gardner has been sent home to Indianapolis and will not be part of the team for the 2013 season. He was charged by Columbus police Saturday night with obstruction of official business after he reportedly ran from the police at a party after being told to stop on suspicion of substance abuse.
Freshman tight end Marcus Baugh was arrested a couple of weeks ago for underage possession of alcohol and for having a fake indentification card. Meyer said Baugh, from Riverside, Calif., has been removed from all team activities and will sit out the first game of the season vs. Buffalo on Aug. 31. He also was taken off scholarship for the rest of the summer.
"I have a clear set of core values in place that members of this football program are constantly reminded of and are expected to honor," Meyer said in a news release. "There are also expectations with regard to behavior. I expect our players to conduct themselves responsibly and appropriately and they will be held accountable for their actions."
Hyde had yet to be charged by police by mid-afternoon today. The alleged victim said in the police report she did not know her assailant, but that she could recognize him.

12 CAPTA Final Report Methodology This CAPTA methodology employs a consequence-driven approach. This methodology begins with the user setting consequence thresholds for the first three of the four consequence areas: � Potentially exposed population � Property loss � Mission disruption Adverse social impact is not addressed explicitly, but the user may see this as extremely impor- tant for some assets and thus consider the adverse social impact to be sufficient cause for the asset to be classified as "critical" for resource allocation purposes. This initial focus on consequences guides the user to focus on outcomes rather than particu- lar assets or threats. Users need not know the cause for the loss or the scenario that led to the loss. The consequence-driven methodology evolved from a desire to limit required inputs to infor- mation accessible to users which, to the extent possible, is objective in nature. The focus is the loss of use of the asset or assets. Assumptions The consequence-based CAPTA methodology makes common sense assumptions about var- ious asset classes, threats and hazards, and countermeasures. The default values and assumptions embedded in the methodology are transparent and, in most cases, users have the opportunity to modify them to reflect local values. The CAPTA guide and tool recognize other guidance that covers the range of routine hazards or threats to transportation infrastructure and assets, such as equipment breakdowns, derail- ments, utility disruptions, criminal acts, and medical emergencies. The experience of transporta- tion operators in handling these minor incidents is already addressed in handbooks, manuals, and industry standards that are readily available. Wherever possible, references to these materials are noted in the text. Many are located at www.trb.org/securitypubs/. The following list contains individual examples of such materials: � TCRP Report 86/NCHRP Report 525, Volume 12: Making Transportation Tunnels Safe and Secure (1). This guide focuses solely on tunnel assets. � "A Guide to Highway Vulnerability Assessment for Critical Asset Identification and Pro- tection" (2). This document develops guidelines for assessing and mitigating vulnerabilities among highway assets. � "Risk Based Prioritization of Terrorist Threat Mitigation Measures on Bridges" (3). This guide, developed by FHWA, provides a standardized, detailed method to assess the vulnerabilities of specific bridge components. � NCHRP Report 526: Snow and Ice Control: Guidelines for Materials and Methods (4). � NCHRP Report 525, Volume 6: Guide for Emergency Transportation Operations (5). The CAPTA methodology makes the following additional assumptions: � The user takes the information provided by CAPTA as a capital budgeting prioritization tool, not as an asset-specific assessment tool. � The CAPTA process delineates assets or asset classes that are of high consequence to the user. This high-level delineation will allow the user to set aside budgetary resources on a rough order of magnitude. The user will then need to apply an asset-specific tool to discern how to use any resources provided to the high-consequence assets.

(Revision History)
TYPE: Ghost, Shadow.
TURF: Ghost Houses.
AFFILIATIONS: None.
CLOSE RELATIVES: Boo.
SKILLS AND ATTACKS: Blowing you back to the beginning of the mansion
STRENGTHS: he is strong when there are enough Boos in the area
WEAKNESSES: He weakens as each Boo in the area is caught
BACKGROUND: The Mysterious Power of the Boos (or so he is called) is the power of the Boos that was created by the Boos desire to turn intruders into a painting. He is strong when there are several Boos in the area he is in, but he weakens with each Boo caught. Because the Boos power is weakened with each one of them caught, it causes him to not be able to think fully of what he is supposed to say when all the boos aren't together. When Luigi was searching for Mario, brfore entering the Balcony without 20 Boos, his Gameboy Horror started rapidly flashing red. Then the Mysterious Power of the Boos appeared before him. The ghostly power taunted him, saying that he could vacuum him up because he is a mysterious power. He then asked why Luigi didn't just give up and told him about why he wishes for such to happen to Luigi and how he was created. he then blew Luigi back to the Foyer. However, after catching 20 Boos, the Boo Power could no longer block Luigi and didn't have the strength to blow him back. So he just gave up and Luigi continued his search.
QUOTES: Click here.
Games: Luigi's Mansion
Items: Entrance to Balcony
Attack Pattern: Blows you back to the Foyer when you don't have 20 Boos.
Basic Strategies: Catch 20 Boos. Once you do, the Mysterious Power of the Boos will no longer have enough power to block your back and send you back to the front of the mansion. Allowing you to continue on to the boss battle with Booloossus.
Advanced Strategies: None.

Geographic Range
Weddell seals are found throughout the Antarctic continent as well as on fifteen small neighboring islands (Stirling 1971).
- Biogeographic Regions
- antarctica
- oceanic islands
- atlantic ocean
- pacific ocean
Leptonychotes weddellii live in Antarctic regions on fast ice areas and in the sea. They don't migrate and local movements are caused by changes in ice conditions. Underwater swimming occurs under natural ice cracks or under ice areas thin enough so that the seals can chew breathing holes using canine teeth. Ice areas where these seals dwell are usually flat icy plains (Stirling, 1970).
- Habitat Regions
- polar
- saltwater or marine
- Terrestrial Biomes
- icecap
Physical Description
Adult Weddell seals have a dark gray coat that is marked with black and lighter gray areas. Males are 2.5 to 2.9 meter in length and females reach up to 3.5 meters. They weigh between 400 and 600 kg.
- Other Physical Features
- endothermic
- homoiothermic
- bilateral symmetry
- Sexual Dimorphism
- female larger
- Range mass
- 400 to 600 kg
- 881.06 to 1321.59 lb
- Range length
- 2.5 to 3.5 m
- 8.20 to 11.48 ft
Reproductive behavior occurs underwater. The female is mounted by the male from behind while her sides are held by his foreflippers. Quite often she is bitten on her neck while copulation occurs. Male-male fighting occurs, which suggests that mating systems are polygynous.
- Mating System
- polygynous
From mid-September to late December active spermatogenesis occurs. In late November to mid-December females are impregnated and about mid-January implantation occurs (Stirling 1971). Gestation last 9 to 10 months. Young pups are born with their permanent dentition. Birth occurs onto the sea ice, which often results in a change of external temperature in newborn pups. Pups are usually born singly, and the time of birth usually varies with latitude from early September at latitude 60 degrees south to late October at latitude 78 degrees south (Stirling 1971). Weddell seal pups weigh about 29 kg at birth. They have a gray lanugo, which after 3 to 4 weeks turns to a dark coat. Weaning takes place at 6 weeks of age and maturity at 3 years. First breeding of females may be denied for 1 or 2 years under some population conditions and males usually don't mate until 6 to 8 years of age because of social pressures (Stirling 1971).

The majority of the behavior occurs under water during the night. Weddell seals move in slow humping motion on land as well as on ice. They swim at a speed of about 5 to 7 knots, using their fore and hind flippers. Diving has been measured at depths of 600 m, and they can remain under for up to an hour (Stirling 1971). Drinking sea water as well as eating snow helps this seal meet its water consumption requirements. Eating occurs underwater. Fighting consists of continual chest contact, but is ceased when striking of chest, neck, or other areas occurs. Weddell seals sleep in the same position on the stomach or back for hours, but lying on their sides is most common. To maximize the sun's thermal benefits, seals often lie perpendicular to the sun (Stirling 1971). Play fighting occurs commonly with subadults. The nails of the foreflipper are used for grooming the head, neck, upper sides, and chest. Other areas are groomed by rubbing back and forth against the ice.
- Key Behaviors
- natatorial
- motile
- nomadic
- solitary
Communication and Perception
The eyes of Leptonychotes weddellii are well developed for low light visibility. This is an adaptive feature of this creature which assists it in locating breathing holes in the ice (Stirling 1971). Vocalization occurs underwater for communication. Overlapped calls are longer than solitary calls, which constitute the varied repertoire of vocal communication in the Weddell seal (Terhume 1994).
- Communication Channels
- acoustic
Food Habits
The diet of Leptonychotes weddellii consists of notothenid fishes, squids, and crustaceans, although they have been witnessed attacking Dissostichus mawsoni (Antarctic toothfish) as large as 54 kg in weight (Stirling 1971). These seals can dive up to 600 meters in search of food and are stealthy hunters, able to sneak attack fish from close range. They also use a method of disturbing fish from ice cracks by blowing bubbles into them and preying on the fish that emerge.
- Primary Diet
- carnivore
- Animal Foods
- fish
- mollusks
Weddell's seals can be preyed on by orcas (Orca orcinus) or, occasionally, leopard seals (Hydrurga leptonyx).
- Known Predators
- orcas (Orca orcinus)
- leopard seals (Hydrurga leptonyx)
Ecosystem Roles
These seals are heavily infested with worms and often reguritate them as a means of expulsion. The louse, Antarctophthirus ogmorhini, attacks the hind quarters as well as the penile orifice of these seals. Lice also infest subadults.
- louse (Antarctophthirus ogmorhini)
Economic Importance for Humans: Positive
Leptonychotes weddellii are often killed and used as dog food. Their dead bodies are also of benefit to those studying worms and parasite infestation since these occur so often in this species. Study of their vocal abilities has advanced our attempt to communicate with animals, similar to the vocal communication studies performed with dolphins (Terhune 1994).
Conservation Status
- IUCN Red List
Least Concern
More information
- US Federal List
- No special status
Other Comments
These seals are named after Sir James Weddell, commander of British sealing expeditions into the sea which is also named after him, the Weddell Sea.

(Eds: APNewsNow. With AP Photos.) By ERIC OLSON AP Sports Writer Nebraska's Eric Martin has become one of the most disruptive defensive players in the Big Ten. With defensive lineman Baker Steinkuhler out because of injury, the No. 14 Cornhuskers will be counting on Martin even more in Saturday night's Big Ten championship game in Indianapolis. Martin has gone from backup the first two games of the season to an All-Big Ten first-team pick by the media. He's racked up 8 1/2 sacks and 16 tackles for loss. Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema said Martin is ''a guy that we need to take care of.''
