"The Cadet is a different type of South Beach experience. There are no views of the beach, and the vibe is more B&B than SoBe Cool." Full review
Rough Guide Star
"Tranquil boutique hotel, with a fresh, clean look enhanced by bamboo floors and a patio-garden where you can enjoy a glass of wine."
Time Out "On a sleepy backstreet, this low-rise 1930s hotel is an undiscovered gem." Full review
Gayot "Opened in December 1941, this B&B was named in memory of the WWII training cadets who lived there."

Concierge "Since emerging from a three-year, $1 billion (yes, billion) makeover in late 2008, Fontainebleau remains an It spot in a town that absolutely loves to be looked at."

Be sure to stay on the ocean side of the resort, where you'll feel as if you're at sea on a yacht, thanks to sweeping Atlantic views from your curved balcony.
Fodor's "There's so much going on in and around the hotel that you can easily forget about the downy sands directly behind the property." Full review

"After its $1 billion facelift in 2008, the Fontainebleau's 1,504 new rooms, nine pools, phenomenal spa and gorgeous design are hard to top." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Fabulously retro, the Fontainebleu a flamboyant Las Vegas-style with Art Deco grandeur. Rooms have been renovated and the hotel is expanding into a condo-hotel."
Rough Guide "Once the last word in glamour, this Miami icon reopened in 2008 after a lavish renovation which saw the addition of two new, luxury all-suite towers."
Condé Nast Traveler "A three-year renovation has put the 1,504-room beachside behemoth back on the map, with an over-the-top atmosphere and adjacent towers housing rooms, 11 restaurants, and a $50 million spa." Full review
Time Out "The most famous hotel in Miami Beach has had a billion-dollar facelift." Full review
Star Service "This Miami Beach icon sits at the top of the heap for well-heeled, demanding business and leisure travelers in search of a flamboyant full-service hotel." Full review
Gayot "This 37-story all-suites property, adjacent to the original historic Fontainebleau hotel, overlooks the Atlantic Ocean, the Intracoastal Waterway and downtown Miami."
BlackBook "Much of the old design was recreated/restored: the black and white bow-tie floors and grand columns in the lobby, gradiose chandeliers, famous "staircase to nowhere"."
