The Brazil-based real estate development firm JHSF, led by Fábio Auriemo, has acquired the COMO Metropolitan Miami Beach hotel at 2445 Collins Ave. for $70 million, roughly $946,000 per key. The off-market transaction was overseen by Susan Gale of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty, who represented both the buyer and seller. The acquisition is JHSF’s first in South Florida and they plan to renovate the property and rebrand it into a Fasano.
The property features 74-keys and was first developed in 1939. It was previously known as the Traymore Hotel. It features a beach club, a ground-floor swimming pool with pool garden, a rooftop swimming pool, gym and a restaurant which is currently Traymore by Michael Schwartz.
