Helen L.: “Kimpton Surfcomber Miami we stayed there last year as a family it’s so good close walking to everything and right on the beach. We flew from Australia to Miami. As a family, we loved it was in a perfect spot close to shops, restaurants, takeaway bakeries. Also has private beach access with lounge chairs beach umbrellas.”

An Oceanfront Hotel in South Beach, the Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel is located in the heart of exhilarating South Beach, in a historic Art Deco building, with a palm-tree-lined pool and a silky sand beach in their back yard. It’s way more fun to put style and socializing over pretense and posing. In fact, Kimpton Surfcomber just may be the most social of all the beachfront South Beach hotels. From DAYLIFE activities to the communal outdoor settings to the daily wine hour, Kimpton Surfcomber is the place to be for a sunny, flirty escape.

Hotels in South Beach have so much to offer. After a day of exploring South Beach, Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel welcomes you back with designer eye candy. Clean lines, bold geometric patterns, and pops of color put a smile on your sun-kissed face. Luxe bed linens and signature Atelier Bloem bath amenities soothe your senses. All housed in a historic Art Deco building that’s just as fetching on the outside. If you really want to live large in the world of hotels on South Beach, ask for an oceanfront balcony room or suite.

Inspired Dining at the South Beach Restaurant.
To call The Social Club a great spot to gather is to state the obvious. Everything about the South Beach restaurant is designed to inspire the gathering of food, drinks, and people. The ambiance alone entices with a sexy design, skylights, and an open-air terrace overlooking the famed Collins Avenue. Your South Beach dining experience includes locally loved, American-inspired, fare in the form of social plates, large plates, and dessert—all with a creative twist. Imbibing is a blast with handcrafted cocktails, microbrews, and curated wines. The best thing about The Social Club may be that you don’t even have to leave Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel to get your social on.

An outdoor restaurant and bar nestled between Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel and the beach, High Tide is an easy place for locals and Surfcomber guests to grab a drink and bite. Stroll over to the pergola-shaded tables and prepare to stay awhile. After all, there’s a long list of craft cocktails concocted by our mixologists: White Sangria, Spiced Rum Punch, Margaritas, Frozen Cappuccinos (infused with spirits, if you wish), and more – by the glass and the pitcher. They’ve got a variety of wines and beers, too.

And let’s not forget the food. From wings, hummus, and ceviche to fresh salads, sandwiches, and fish tacos, High Tide deliciously hits the spot. Beyond the menu, our laid-back vibe is accented with live music, occasional movie screenings on our giant projection screen, and a shorts-and-sandy-feet dress code.

A hip and trendy hotel for the young at hearted in a lively location!

Robin Andrews Stanley Q: “So far, our fav in Miami is Four Seasons. Pricey, but consistent with Regent cruise standards.”

Bobby H.: “We usually stay at the Four Seasons. Some of my family will stay at the intercontinental.”

Carolyn Spencer B.: “The Four Seasons, lovely!”

This luxury hotel is an urban resort in the heart of downtown’s refined Brickell neighbourhood. Rising 70 storeys above the skyline in one of the city’s tallest buildings, the hotel is in the heart of bustling Brickell, downtown Miami’s financial and cultural centre.

Unwind beneath the Florida sun on our two-acre, rooftop pool terrace, surrounded by palm trees and seventh-floor views, or stop in at EDGE Steak & Bar for modern cuts and seafood served with a local flare before heading out to explore the eclectic neighbourhoods that surround the bay. Brickell has a very nice shopping area as well which is recently opened.

The pool area has swaying hammocks and the cool shade of 28 towering Royal Palm trees make the seventh-floor rooftop wading pool the perfect spot for an afternoon siesta. It’s hard to believe you are in the heart of the city when you look up and all you see are palm trees swaying in the breeze.

‘It is only a short trip by Uber or taxi to your cruise dock!’

A NEW ERA OF ELEGANCE

From the moment it first opened its doors on New Year’s Eve 1930, The Surf Club has hosted history. It is here that you will find Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club, an oceanfront destination bringing a new era of glamour elevated with chic Italian dining and a world-class spa.

With privileged beach and pool views, the Ocean Bungalows are luxurious hideaways located on the second floor of The Surf Club’s legendary Cabana Row. From the earliest years, original architect Russell Pancost instinctively understood that these sun sanctuaries would always remain the true soul of The Surf Club.

With either privileged views of the Atlantic Ocean or city, Guest Rooms are bathed in natural light by floor-to-ceiling windows and feature a refreshing color palette that echoes the classic Surfside combination of sand, sea, and sun.

The Surf Club today might have a storied past – a glittering list of names including Frank Sinatra, Elizabeth Taylor, and Winston Churchill – but the sense of possibility and timeless values for which it has always been cherished remain as strong as ever.

Linda M.: “The Betsy Hotel in South Beach. Entertainment in the lounge every night, easy to walk to breakfast or dinner.”

A beachfront gem honored by Travel + Leisure as ‘World’s Best’, The Betsy anchors the quiet end of iconic Ocean Drive — and has one of the most exciting neighborhoods in America as its backyard. Inside, you’ll discover everything you’d expect from a luxury boutique hotel — thoughtful amenities, extraordinary service, a storied chef guiding the kitchens— and some things you might not, like a beloved gathering place for arts and culture, a curated events program ranging from yoga classes to live music, a royal welcome for four-legged friends, and the individual attention of a family-owned hotel.

The two four-story buildings with 130 rooms are spread over a full city block, with expansive public space that outpaces vastly larger properties. And with a plethora of outdoor spaces all washed by a perpetual Atlantic Ocean breeze, the Betsy is uniquely equipped to welcome you in a world that newly values personal space and open air. All areas of the hotel, in addition to being ADA-accessible, offer multiple points of entry. Because the hotel faces both Ocean Drive and Collins Avenue with a well-lit alley in between (and with beautifully furnished and umbrellaed terraces facing east and west), one can come and go through multiple key-activated entrances easily, avoiding unwanted interaction with other guests.

Salute the sun with Yoga on the Skyline Deck, keep up with your workout routine with a Peloton spin class in the fitness center, or watch the clouds go by lounging at the rooftop pool. Round out your day with an unexpected adventure by picking up one of our curated book titles in the Library, or feel jazzy rhythms every night in our tropical lobby. Did I mention two renowned restaurants on property? You might be asking yourself, why leave at all?

Take your pick – Courtyard or Rooftop? Quintessential South Beach glamour, right before it goes on the postcard: an infinity rooftop pool just cool enough to relieve the heat and warm enough to linger for a cocktail or conversation, 360-degree views of Miami and the Atlantic, a full bar with food service, and an architectural marvel – it’s suspended in mid-air. A tranquil counterpart, the Courtyard Pool —equal parts full shade and direct sunlight —feels like a tropical retreat from a bygone era, ideal for families with little ones.

With so much going on at the hotel, sometimes it takes a moment to remember that The Betsy looks out onto one of the most glorious strands of sand beach in the world. The beach service awaits — umbrellas, lounge chairs, and towels; attendants ready to see to your requests; and, of course, the truest marvel of them all — that water.

‘The Betsy – South Beach is ideal for visiting Miami Beach and as your pre-cruise stay. It is not only affordable but also comfortable and centrally located. Enjoy a luxurious environment with a myriad of amenities designed specifically for travelers like you.’

Live glamorously. Choose fabulously

“Delightfully Retro”

 

Sandee J.; “The room was less than $200 a night, that price included a 10% off military discount. 10-minute taxi ride to Port of Miami. 1950s-inspired. EXTREMELY clean. On-site restaurant (good food) bakery across the street. Refreshing drinks from the poolside bar. Not the best area, (we did not have to leave the property and felt very safe) If you are looking for a clean, friendly place to lay your head for the night before or after a cruise, I recommend!”
