{"key":"villa-emerald-vr","blocks":[{"section":"intro","body":"Villa Emerald takes twenty guests, which is more than any other nine-bedroom house in this collection. Freshly built across 6,200 square feet on two storeys, with vast rooms, stylish furniture and a modern scheme throughout. The structural detail that matters is two master suites, one on each floor, so two lead couples or two families get equal footing instead of one winning the draw."},{"section":"setting","heading":"North Miami Beach","body":"The house sits in the residential grid north of Bal Harbour, where the beaches thin out and parking stops being a negotiation. Aventura Mall is four kilometres north for a rainy afternoon, Oleta River State Park is the same distance for kayaking under mangroves, and Haulover puts you on sand in about a quarter of an hour. Two international airports are each inside half an hour."},{"section":"interiors","heading":"Inside the house","body":"Nine bedrooms over two floors with a master suite on each. Seven further bedrooms carry a mix of king and queen beds; two pairs share Jack and Jill bathrooms and the rest are en-suite, for seven full bathrooms plus a half. That is the trade against the sister houses: Emerald sleeps twenty rather than eighteen, and the bathroom count is the thing that gives.","bullets":["Nine bedrooms, seven full bathrooms plus a half","Two master suites with king beds, one on each floor","One further room with a king bed","Four rooms with queen beds, one room with two queens","Two pairs of rooms share Jack and Jill bathrooms","Premium finishes throughout a 6,200 sq ft two-storey plan","Washer and dryer, full kitchen, WiFi"]},{"section":"outdoors","heading":"The backyard","body":"Pool and spa with a covered terrace alongside, a barbecue zone and landscaped grounds. It is a straightforward backyard rather than a games field, which suits the kind of group that books this house: twenty people who want to eat outside, swim, and not trip over a ping pong table on the way to the barbecue.","bullets":["Pool and spa","Covered terrace","Barbecue zone","Landscaped backyard"]},{"section":"logistics","heading":"Twenty guests, practically","body":"Three-night minimum. Laundry on site, which twenty people over a week will need twice. Split arrivals work well here because Fort Lauderdale and Miami airports are both about half an hour out. The owner also quotes event pricing, so if the booking is a wedding party or a corporate offsite rather than a holiday, say so up front and we will price it properly.","bullets":["Three-night minimum stay","Sleeps twenty across nine bedrooms","Washer and dryer on site","Event pricing available on request"]},{"section":"ideal-for","heading":"Best For","body":null,"bullets":["The largest family groups, up to twenty","Two-household bookings that both want a master","Business retreats and extended stays","Wedding parties needing one roof"]}]}
