The hotel

W South Beach Hotel enjoys an ocean frontage the length of a football field! An ultra-modern establishment, this hotel is inspired by Miami Beach's exolution as the 'American Riviera'. The studios and suites are some of the largest in Miami Beach, and not only beautifully furnished but they all have balconies and enjoy uninterrupted views of the sea. Cool off at WET Deck lounge in a luxe cabana, or take your shot at the hotel's rooftop basketball or tennis courts! W's pritine beach is perfect for a stroll at sundown, and well - then there's the food. With restaurants in New York, Beverley Hills, Seoul and London, the famed Mr Chow is now in Miami courtesy of W South Beach, serving delicious Beijing cuisine in a very trendy setting. There's also The Living Room where you are surrounded by art including original works by Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, George Condo and Kenny Scharfand, and can enjoy your cocktail to the sound of a live DJ spinning beats. Whilst the hotel can keep you entertained for days, when you do leave you've got galleries, museums, nightlife, and an extremely impressive culinary scene, all on your doorstep.

Kevin was incredible! He made my experience at the W so great. I look forward to coming back and seeing him he made me feel like I was the only person at the pool. He was around to check on me every so often. Great experience! I will definitely be back to see Kevin!

Outstanding luxurious hotel. Friendly, welcoming and attentive valet, bellman, concierge and registration staff. Bonvoy upgrade and late check out offered without asking (almost never available at all other Marriotts). The larger studio was so spacious and beautiful - it led out to a larger balcony with seating and the view was gorgeous. The amenities in the room were high end - Momo shower products, Nespresso coffee machine, lots of water options. Extra large shower with all the body sprays, full bath sheet as well as regular towels, robe and slippers etc. Sitting area with comfortable and stylish furniture - it truly is a five star hotel in the heart of South Beach.
