Fans of either the New York Knicks or the Miami Heat have a luxurious way of showing up for the upcoming playoff series.

The Elser Hotel has partnered with both Blade and Spectre Sea for a curated experience where New York-based basketball fans can attend games 3 and 4 of the playoffs in Miami. For a cool $52,000, guests will be picked up by luxury jet company Blade, take a cruise around the bay for cocktails aboard a Spectre Sea vessel and then arrive for VIP access at the game.

Here’s how it will work: guests leave from one of Blade’s two private lounges in New York to be flown via private jets to Miami. Once there, they will hop on a short helicopter ride by Blade to downtown Miami where they will board a Spectre Sea yacht. The yacht, headed for the Kaysea Center, will have a full cocktail hour while cruising around the bay before dropping guests off to watch the game.

The experience doesn’t end once the game does. Guests then head back to the newly-opened Elser located in downtown Miami to check into a three-bedroom suite and have the ability to dine at the Jaguar Sun restaurant for dinner or indulge in a champagne breakfast in bed the following morning.

Richard Piana, director of public relations for Spectre Sea, is excited about the experience and what it means for the future. “Our partnership with The Elser is a perfect segue into this exciting new chapter for Spectre Sea.”
