Daring to be different, yet featuring enough deco-detailing to make the grade in Miami, this five star retreat may be all cool white and slick lines on the outside, but inside it’s filled with sumptuous velvety reds, glitzy golds, and warm woods and leather: nowhere more so than in its very own theatre, an opulent cabaret venue with a nod to the grand old opera houses of Europe’s capitals. The dining’s just as decadent, ranging from the modern Asian creations of master chef Paul Qui, in the ocean view Pao restaurant, to the live-fire Argentine cooking of renowned South American chef Francis Mallman, at Los Fuegos. They’ve even thrown in a sand-skirting location on Miami Beach, a luxury spa, and an oceanfront pool and sunbathing deck.

Facial was fine. Not great and not personalized. She was nice but I got a 45 minutes facial because they brought me in late. When I told the manager she offered to go and review. I was embarrassed for this to happen so she gave me free salt and clay for a self scrub. Not worth it.

I had such a memorable day at the beach, thanks to the incredible service provided by Cruz, Rodrigo, Wagner, and the amazing bali team. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and well taken care of.
Cruz and Rodrigo were always nearby offering fresh towels, setting up umbrellas, and making sure our drinks stayed cold. Wagner was incredibly attentive and personable, always checking in to see if we needed anything. And the team were an absolute delight friendly, hardworking, and full of positive energy.
This kind of hospitality is rare. They turned a regular beach day into a first-class experience. Huge thanks to all of them for making it so enjoyable I’ll definitely be back!
