The hotel

With rich history, set within an art deco landmark, Ritz-Carlton South Beach is a hotel oozing with glamour and exclusivity. DiLido Beach Club is the place to be seen, and their ‘Frose Fridays’ offer the perfect start to the weekend overlooking the oceanfront. Continue your weekend shopping and dining in South Beach, everything you need is within easy walking distance. And whilst Sunday may be considered a ‘day of rest’, we’re carrying on the party here with brunch at Fuego y Mar complete with live music and Atlantic views. If you’re looking for a more chilled break, the Ritz-Carlton Spa is perfect to relax with luxurious treatments and products on offer, or just chill by the elevated pool and let the sounds of the ocean take away your troubles.

We had a great time! Frederico, Caleb, Lod, and Kevin were amazing! The staff treated us very well. Food was great! I enjoyed laying on the beach and conversing with the staff. The sea breeze was amazing! The staff was very attentive, and they took care of everything that we needed.

Federico provided great and attentive service at the beach. The room and hotel are always excellent. The Ritz Carlton in south beach is the best hotel in Miami. I am glad to have spent a week at this great resort and look forward to many more visits.

Revisited the Ritz and received excellent service throughout the resort. Ricardo and Kevin were exceptional at the beach and appreciate their “of service” mentality. Overall, no complaints as location is great and amenities are on par with other high end resorts.
