Fleet of Luxury Golf Cars arrives on Fisher Island
May 2, 2016
Buy a condo - and get a custom-designed golf and leisure car from the luxury brand Garia in the deal. That’s the offer to buyers of new luxury residences at Palazzo Del Sol on Fisher Island, the famed private island community off the coast of Miami Beach, Florida.
Upon purchasing a residence in the island’s newest and most exclusive boutique building, Palazzo Del Sol, buyers will receive a custom-designed golf and leisure car from Garia, the world’s leading manufacturer of golf cars in the luxury class. Each golf car has been individually numbered and corresponds with one of the newly completed development’s 43 waterfront residences, which are priced from $6.5 to 35 million.
“Golf cars are the preferred method of transportation on Fisher Island and our buyers are thrilled when we hand them the keys to their new custom Garia,” says Palazzo Del Sol’s developer Heinrich von Hanau. “They are as much about function as they are about form and they symbolize the superior level of design and quality Palazzo Del Sol brings to the island.”
Accessible only by auto-ferry or private yacht, Fisher Island represents one of the wealthiest zip codes in the U.S. – and it is one of the most sought after destinations in the world when it comes to exclusivity, luxury and privacy. The island’s luxury homes, golf course, tennis facility and Club are of the highest and most exclusive standards, attracting many of the world’s wealthiest to its shores for more than two decades. The island is also known as the former winter retreat for William K. Vanderbilt and a string of American pioneers of industry in the years following.
Garia CEO Jakob Holstein calls the partnership with Palazzo Del Sol a milestone for the company in the U.S. market.
“Our cars on Fisher Island are shining examples of Garia’s ability to deliver custom-designed cars that match our high-end customers’ needs. The Palazzo Del Sol cars are designed so they can be used both for golf and regular transport around the island – and they luxuriously reflect the expression and exquisite design line of Palazzo Del Sol,” says Jakob Holstein.
Garia has for many years delivered golf cars to golf courses and leading country clubs around the world. The partnership with Palazzo Del Sol exemplifies a new market that is rapidly growing for Garia - namely golf and leisure cars that are designed to be used for normal driving on holiday resorts.
“Our cars are of such high quality and design that they are ideal for transport on roads. You do not have to play golf to have fun and get a great quality experience in one of our cars,” says Jakob Holstein.
The custom golf cars delivered to Fisher Island feature sleek graphite grey metallic paint, chrome rims, a built-in refrigerator and sport seating for four.
