Luxury Condos in LA are One-Upping Their Amenities

Typical luxury condo amenities in Los Angeles 20 years ago: pool, hot tub, gym, clubhouse, BBQ, business center, front desk concierge, and maybe a tennis court.

Now, lifestyles have changed. "You don’t need a front-desk person to book the table you want at a restaurant,” per Josh Greer of Hilton & Hyland. “You already have an assistant who does that.” You also don't need saunas as people tend to have other gym memberships.

The luxury condo checklist now:
- Pool (The larger the better, saltwater preferred, and temp controlled of course)
- 24/7 Security (Basically no one is allowed unless on the guest list)
- Fitness Center (Must have towel service, yoga rooms, and up to the minute gym equipment)
- Valet Service or Private garages
- Charging Stations
- LEED certification or sustainable fixtures
- Gardens and decks, preferably with views
- Screening Rooms
- Lounge and event space
- Pet amenities and grooming stations
