Best for
This suite suits couples and travelers seeking a resort-style beach getaway, thanks to direct beach access, seven pools, a full-service spa, and proximity to South Beach nightlife just 10 minutes away. It also works well for small families given the kids' pool with water slide and kid-friendly designation, and for pet owners thanks to the pet-friendly policy.

Travel tips
Bus stations on Collins Avenue and Indian Creek Drive are within a two-minute walk, making it easy to reach South Beach, Ocean Drive, and other Miami Beach neighborhoods without a car. Room service only runs from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, so plan late-night meals around the on-site restaurants or nearby options like Cecconi's Miami (steps away) or La Côte. Free parking is available on-site for those driving in, and Miami International Airport is about a 20-minute drive away.
What guests say
Guests consistently praise the direct beach access, describing it as ideal for quiet early swims, along with the free Lapis Spa passes, the resort's multiple pools, and dining at La Côte. The comfortable king bed and attentive communication from hosts were also highlighted, along with scenic grounds and beach views. The one recurring drawback mentioned was difficulty finding open pool chairs together during busy periods, though room service availability into the evening was appreciated when needed.
