From hidden cigar lounges and wine-tasting rooms to cinema-quality theaters and club-style recreation, these spaces are increasingly treated as core real estate value rather than optional flex rooms. Here is how the trend is showing up across Miami-beach, Sunny Isles, Palm-beach, and beyond, and what sophisticated buyers should demand when evaluating them.
