The $213 million sale of a trophy beachfront hotel in Bal Harbour is just the first in a crowded pipeline for hospitality transactions, South Florida real estate dealmakers told the Daily Business Review, noting 2014 is likely to be a big year for hotel sales.

Suzanne M. Amaducci-Adams, a partner in the Miami office of Bilzin Sumberg Price Baena & Axelrod who leads the law firm’s hospitality group, said she expects various large hotel sales to go through in the near future.
