There’s also a guest kitchen, which is open from 7 a.m. until 10 p.m. Just make sure you remembered to bring your own food and don’t try to steal someone else’s.
Time Out "Small, intimate and quirky, the Freehand has more character than many of its South Beach competitors." Full review

It is technically a hostel, so you can choose from shared rooms for four or eight or private rooms for two.

Travel + Leisure "Yogis replace Baywatch-style joggers, and a 70,000-square-foot maze... of David Rockwell–designed spaces serves as the backdrop to a host of treatments ranging from mud baths to thalassotherapy." Full review
Rough Guide "If your Miami fantasy consists of blissful days lounging on a private beach... and sumptuous organic meals and cocktails throughout, look no further than Canyon Ranch."
Gayot "Canyon Ranch brings its own brand of healthy living to the Miami area with luxury hotel suites and a signature Canyon Ranch Spa --- a 70,000-square-foot spa, with wellness and fitness features."
BlackBook "Part all-suite hotel, part condo residences, part spa - all superluxe and superhealthy."
Zagat4.0
"Catering to those looking to "relax, rest and be healthy", this "unreal" hotel and spa offers "tranquil" "bliss" in "spacious", "modern" suites."
Star Service "Young, demanding travelers will find this to be a delightful departure from the Victorian ethos conveyed at other high-profile fat farms around the globe." Full review

Unfortunately, even after a year of operation, not all of CR's patented treatments and programs are available, so be sure to call ahead before booking to ensure satisfaction.
