    Beautiful hotel with direct beach access. Odd clientele, but that could just be me. Lovely room, nice on site restaurant and bar.

    Wow! The Miami Beach EDITION is a class act. The vibe and staff elevate an already lovely hotel. I love the feel of the entire place. Cozy yet elegant, every inch feels so welcoming. The spa and restaurant offered perfection. The big backyard and pool area feels lost in time. Recently updated, it still feels classic and lovely. Unexpected fun is such a treat. There is a bowling alley and ice skating rink. They are a must try! From the lobby to the rooms, I fell in love. I cannot wait to return.

    We LOOOOOVE the edition hotels. With that said, the price points in Miami are painful for what you get in quality and quantity. The fruit plate was not good (but it wasn't peak fruit season) so I wouldn't recommend ordering if you like your melon to have flavor etc. also $17 for a latte seems steep. The kitchen went above and beyond to accomodate my food allergies however charged me $120 for a side of chicken breast, plate of spinach, avocado and cooked carrots. The staff is SO accommodating. So beyond the food quality and the insane prices, I feel like you really get treated like royalty--though nothing is free lol. Expect to pay an arm and a leg. But this location and hotel layout and room layout just cannot be beat. 10/10 but EXPENSIVE.

    What an amazing experience inside of the Miami Beach edition hotel. I was in sandbox area they call it for the hotel and it was amazing this hotel is beautiful the 1% I seen of it so I can only imagine the rest of it. The staff was extra nice and welcoming. I absolutely loved it . And in the future look forward to booing a stay

    My partner and I stayed at the Edition for Thanksgiving weekend. The price is up there but the hotel staff are very friendly and the hotel is beautiful. The hotel has 2 pools, a bar and restaurant, spa, gym, bowling alley, and ice rink. The downside of this hotel is that there is a lot of extra fees - a $65 /day valet car fee, resort fee, and both are taxed. If you have Marriott status, beware the breakfast/points/upgrade options are not available here. We also got charged an extra fee for buying something from the market, but they were able to help us right away to fix that. Apart from that, we would have appreciated more details about the stay, such as the events they host in the basement and the hours for hikes and bowling alley and ice rink. Regardless, the hotel is very clean and luxurious, in a great location with an exit to the beach. The room is cleaned multiple times a day. The downsides of the room is that the sink is very shallow and the vent does not help much in the bathroom. We were told we would have an ocean view but it was more like a partial ocean view. There is complimentary coffee in the morning and espresso at 3pm. The hotel provides beach chairs for the day and bikes (2 hours) which came in handy when we wanted to bike the boardwalk. The gym hosts classes every morning that you must RSVP for prior, and offers extra training at an addition cost. The pool area has restaurants and they provide towels as well as floaties until the evening. Other fun activities include a bowling alley and ice rink which turn into a bar at night with a DJ (the DJ is great!!). I believe that there is a food/drink minimum after 8pm to reserve the bowling lanes. Overall I think this hotel is in a great location and has fun activities in the hotel and around the hotel. If you're looking for a luxurious stay in Miami this is the place!

    My husband and I just visited this hotel for our wedding anniversary and had the best time! The property is beautiful but the staff/service was incredible! Marina was super kind and went above and beyond to make our hotel experience the best it could be. We are so grateful! We also loved having Gabby serve us at the pool every day. She was very attentive and always made us feel taken care of. We loved getting to meet Kayla Hopewell too.. she took time out to take pictures of us on the property and was so friendly!!! I have nothing but good things to say about our experience. :) We loved this location as well. It's quiet, clean, and it's close to lots of restaurants and shopping.

    Checking in!

    Don't try to bowl here! We stayed at this hotel. The room was small but nice, the pools were nice, the restaurant was good, the bar staff took care of us, we had a good spa experience, but we weren't able to bowl. We came down to bowl the first night we stayed there, and was told there was a $30 food and drink minimum to bowl. Because we just had a few rounds at the bar upstairs, we said we'll be back the next evening . We came back the next day (Monday evening), ready to spend $30 to buy a couple rounds so we could bowl, after having dinner at the hotel restaurant. The bowling lanes were empty! On Monday they told us if we wanted to bowl for an hour, there was a $300 (!) food and drink minimum. We just had dinner--and spent quite a bit of money at the hotel restaurant -- so this was a non-starter, and there were no other options for us. We expect a hotel like this to take care of customers, not send them away. We will never stay here again.

    Room

    Very modern, if not ultra modern. Stark white exterior, lobby, corridors, employees all in white linen, and rooms with wood wall accenting in the rooms. The corridors do need to be painted as white shows all scuff marks and such. Staff is friendly and professional. Two pools and beach access. Bonus miniature cupcake like desserts from the hotel restaurant in the room as a welcome. Quite delicious. Will have to try the restaurant, the Matador Room. Fun aspect is the world's shallowest sink in the bathroom.

    The food, staff, and the service was amazing and friendly. The property is beautiful. One specific memory that touched me. While I was eating at one of the restaurants Tropicale, I believe it was the manager Ray or Raymond, but I briefly mentioned to him that I loved the house hot sauce that they had. He later surprises me with a bottle to take home and that kindness, attentiveness and thoughtfulness really made my trip and made my overall feeling about this property as positive. I unfortunately didn't get to say goodbye or thank him. I really hope he sees this and can be recognized for it.

    Service: To start off, the valet service was excellent, the men were quick, attentive, and friendly. They handled our vehicle with care and brought it around in a timely manner. The front desk made check in super easy, they offered water and walked us to the elevators. The gentleman there way friendly and very polite. The cleaning team were also very welcoming and polite. Room Quality: The room was nice, however for the cost and hype around the hotel I expected a little better. Upon entering the room there was a lovely fresh aroma. The bathroom was gorgeous and beautifully designed. The bed was on the smaller side and although the view of the beach was lovely, it would have been nice to have a balcony; although I get the absence of one could be for safety. The room had two fluffy and comfortable bath robes, one had black and brown marks on the arm and back. The bathroom counter was a bit grimy and could have used an extra wipe. Room Amenities: Pretty standard TV, mini refrigerator, safe, iron, mini bar, and mini essentials all at a cost. Hotel Amenities: Aside from the beach and pool access, there is a bar with a bowling alley and ice skating ring to enjoy. The hotel offers serval spa service including hair and nail salons and maternity massages. Overall it was a nice stay, it lacked on the room cleanliness but not horribly so.

    When I need a nice beach day, I typically go to The Edition and grab a cabana. The food and drinks are always great. (Lobster roll is my fav) Service good. And the vibes and views and beach waves are always what the doctor ordered!

    Loved, love,loved this hotel! Room was very comfortable and well decorated. Loved the pillows so much I'm buying them for my home. Bed was pleasantly comfortable. Bathrobes are super comfy. The only caveat is they're too small for a six foot man. Gym was great with cold towels in the fridge, good equipment selection. Two pools, a bowling alley which was a hit with kids and adults (they need more lanes!), the ice skating rink was a hit with me :) Loved the lobby, plenty of comfortable seating and a pool table. Service with everyone at the hotel was excellent. Thank you to management for training the employees well! There's a gate that leads to the beach or boardwalk, works well. Plenty beach chairs available. Food and drinks at the restaurants were excellent. All around a great experience, which this business recognizes.

My gf and I stopped through here on our way out before boarding our flights later in the afternoon. If you're toting your luggage and not a hotel guest, you will have to find another hotel to store your luggage while enjoying this most decadent brunch experience. Luckily we arrived early enough to our reservations to sort that out. Reservations are a must if you don't want to wait. The restaurant is gorgeous with various spaces designed differently but keeps to the exotic Asian theme. Dining in the atrium near the water feature in the middle with stage for the musicians is where we had our experience. Olga was our server. She brought us our special beverages not available at the bar: Bloody Mary's and endless bubbly in our glasses The offerings here are more than I can name, but there is something to satisfy every craving. The favorite for me is the caviar bar. It comes with all the proper fixings on a blini with Crème fraîche. Do you need a vodka shot to go with? Yes, that's also available also at the caviar station. Fresh raw oysters, clams or shrimp cocktail is available in abundance with everything else here. The ceviche was great. I passed on all the various noodles but had to have some lamb curry and basmati rice- delicious! I had some Peking Duck and leg of lamb at the meat station. The filet mignon and lamb chops was ordered and brought to the table. The leg of lamb and filet were slightly dry but still good. The lamb chops with chimichurri sauce was amazing- nuances of vibrant flavors. Assorted fresh fruits were a colorful collection of enticements. I saw some papaya and enjoyed its fresh, sweet juiciness. I am not a dessert person but had to try the key like pie. Then of course, the matcha dessert is a sitting temptation next to the pie. So, my dessert spoils were more than intended. What the hell right? Lol That was the sweet ending to my Setai brunch. There was so much more such as bread, fried stuff, eggs, bagel station, toast etc. One can only eat so much. I stuck to enjoying my favorites. The experience is pricey but so worth it. It is truly the best brunch experience I've ever had. - better than Vegas and a cruise ship!! I always have to experience a Setai brunch whenever in Miami!

    I love this hotel, the pool, the beach, the restaurants and the valmont spa. We had a great time…read more Please note that the spa reception is on the first floor across from the hotel check-in. You must walk through the lobby and across the outside area. The sauna and the one person steam shower is located here. You Check-in then you get changed into the robe and walk across the lobby check-in area to the elevators. You are walking through the area with all the guests and their luggage in your super large robe that doesn't close very well. I did not enjoy this. Some disappointing things which was not their fault is the parking garage construction noise even on Sundays. The noise took away from my spa experience. They did nothing for the noise control. Also, the SPA requests you must arrive 30 minutes before your treatment time. I got my parking validated BUT we stayed for brunch who also validated our parking but we went over the 4 hours so we got no discount for parking and we were charged the full $35 fee plus tip for the valet. The valet staff was quite nasty telling me we were there too long for the discount BUT each one of those alone qualified for a discounted valet. You can not do both in the 4 hour window.

You'll often see people jogging, exercising, and enjoying the outdoors, which adds to the energetic South Beach vibe. The walk around the area is pleasant, and the overall atmosphere feels fun and relaxed. Overall, the Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel is a wonderful place with great service, good food, and a cool beachside vibe. I would definitely recommend it for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

The eggs were nicely cooked, potatoes had great flavor but were a bit cold and very fresh but I imagine freshly made are very solid. The toast was not bad. Avocado was fresh. Good portion and good prices. My friend and I shared a pancake that was pretty good but lacked a bit of flavor but was still enjoyable. I would definitely come back and try other items as they have an all day menu!

She knows the menu inside and out, gives thoughtful recommendations, and brings such a positive energy that it transforms the whole dining experience. You can tell she really loves what she does.

However since we paid tripple that price I have to be way more critical. The staff makes it extra special. They were all friendly and had the "I can do it for you attitude." Kudos to the staff. Our "up-graded" room facing half ocean/city was tiny, a tad worn, had a very nice view, and non impressive toiletrees. The worst part of our room was the side of the hotel we were on. Our room was on the industrial exhaust fans side and it was extremely noisy. Had to keep our balcony door closed to drown out the noise. The location of the hotel, as others mentioned is ideal. Now here is the scary part...we got stuck on the elevator two times. It wasn't a long time but enough to scare me especially since I am very claustrophobic. I ended up taking the stairs to the 9th floor the rest of our stay. They did fix the elevator but this happened to quite a few guests and they didn't shut the elevator. Our complimentary breakfast (free with my Marriott status) was not the best. Breakfast is served in the attached Mexican restaurant which is not owned by Marriott. It is not a buffet. Small menu with the basics. Food was fair. We enjoyed the pool and the short walk to the beach. The pool restaurant has the best hotdogs! And we also enjoyed the quinoa salad.

Service was good, once you got their attention, which was on you, not them...we had the lobster, fairly priced at $39, but was like rubber and inedible. Sides were a throw away. Drinks were very good. Other points, nice mini bar in room, however NO coffee in room and coffee shop doesn't open until 7 AM. A regular room, facing back away from bay, dinner for 2, minor mini bar invasion (2 drinks) valet, was over $1100. Not worth the cost.

Today I attended a private brunch for work and I wanted to check two small bags at the front desk because I didn't want to take them into the brunch. I was told it would be five dollars for outside guests to check a bag. This is news to me. Never before have I been charged for this in the over 13 years that I've been going to this property. That isn't a luxurious experience nor is it up to standard, hotel guest or not. Service was polite outside of the charge. Food was average at best. A few hours later I attended another lunch at Bellini at the Mr. C hotel. I asked to check the same bags at their front desk. No charge. When I picked up my bags, they asked me how lunch was and if it was my first time at the property. Would I like some water to go (complimentary)? It was not my first time at Mr. C but this service is what I come to expect at a property of this nature. Not to be nickel and dimed for a basic service. This new experience paired with the fact that I was overcharged for drinks on my last visit to the standard (November) to which I called to rectify after realizing once I was home, I was told they would call me back and they never did. I'm soured on the whole property.

    Fontainebleau Miami isn't just a hotel -- it's a full‑scale Miami moment. The kind of place where…read moreyou walk into the lobby and instantly feel like you've stepped into a glossy magazine spread. High ceilings, marble everywhere, and a buzz that tells you you're in the right place. What impressed me most? There's genuinely plenty to do for all ages, which is not something you can say about every Miami resort. Whether you're traveling with kids, teens, adults, or a multigenerational crew, everyone finds their lane here. The pool scene is the heartbeat of the property. Multiple pools, each with its own personality -- family-friendly areas with space to splash, quieter corners for lounging, and the high-energy spots where the music and cocktails flow. Service was dialed in across the board: fast, friendly, and always one step ahead. Rooms were spotless and stylish, with balconies that make you want to order room service just to soak in the view a little longer. Housekeeping kept everything crisp, and every request was met with that effortless "of course" attitude. Dining is another standout. From quick bites to full-on fine dining, everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Even the grab-and-go spots felt elevated. And if nightlife is your thing, you don't need to leave the property -- the energy here after dark is pure Miami. But if you're traveling with kids or just want a low-key night, the resort still feels comfortable and accessible. Fontainebleau nails that rare balance of iconic luxury and all-ages fun. It's bold, glamorous, and buzzing in all the right ways, yet still manages to be welcoming and easy to enjoy no matter who you're traveling with. A true Miami classic that continues to deliver. Enjoy

    I would never stay at the Fontainebleau Miami again. We booked 6 junior suites for 12 people for a…read moreproposal weekend and stayed 4 nights, with one room being a full suite -- and the experience was honestly shocking for a hotel at this price point. The Fontainebleau Las Vegas is impeccable, so we expected the same level of luxury and service here. Unfortunately, this location feels run down and poorly managed. The beds literally cave in in the middle, rooms feel outdated, and basic amenities were a struggle. There's nowhere to get ice yourself -- you have to call for it -- except no one ever brought it despite us requesting it multiple times over all 4 days. For a "luxury" hotel, there were also no slippers, no robes, and no 24-hour room service, which was surprising considering the price point and reputation. The full suite, which was the most expensive room we booked, had multiple issues: the shower head was rusted with water barely coming out of several holes, and the refrigerator leaked huge puddles onto the floor. We even encountered very rude interactions with both a poolside employee and a pool restaurant employee. Monday morning, my boyfriend and I wanted to sit in a cabana for literally 10 minutes to eat a bagel and coffee we had purchased from their café because we simply needed shade. The entire pool area was practically empty, yet we were shooed away in a very disrespectful manner. Later, when we went to COTE for lunch, the food and drinks were amazing and our servers were fantastic -- but once again, the front desk staff had a condescending attitude. We were asking what seating was available and discussing options within our group since we wanted a normal sit-down table. After we asked a follow-up question to clarify what wasn't available, the hostess responded with, "Do you want me to show you the tables so you can figure it out?" Meanwhile, the tables, couches, and bar seating were directly in front of us. We were simply trying to understand the wait and seating situation, not asking to be spoken to disrespectfully. What made the experience even worse was management. While discussing concerns at checkout and showing photos/videos, the manager was sitting on her phone while we were speaking to her. I've genuinely never seen someone so unprofessional in a management position at a luxury hotel. On top of that, friends and family tried sending champagne to the suite for the proposal celebration. It became unbelievably difficult. Emails went unanswered, calls weren't returned after multiple attempts, and one person who paid for the champagne had to text us directly asking if we received it -- because the hotel never delivered it. Only after they called again the following day to complain did the champagne finally arrive. Overall, this hotel feels like it stays busy mainly because of conventions and the iconic name, not because of the actual guest experience. The only highlight? The late-night food truck was honestly 10/10.
