Suites at Casa Tua, offer small and big luxuriesboth to enjoy on the spot and to buy for home. Before arriving at the hotel, guests answer questions about their personal preferences, such as what kind of bubble bath and body cream they'd like in the bathroom and what kinds of beverages they'd prefer in the mini bar (perhaps to drink on the balcony adjoining their suite). Then, before checking out, guests have the opportunity to purchase many of the things showcased at the hotel: Santa Maria Novella toiletries; Loro Piana cashmere throws, available in more than 50 colors and coordinated with each room; pure linen sheets from Bellora; and even hand-stitched Tréca mattresses from Paris. Aesthetes can also buy the artwork displayed in Casa Tua's upstairs loungepossibly an original Warhol or Avedon (suites from $750 per night; 1700 James Ave., Miami Beach; 305-673-0973). Susan Choung
