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."
i
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"."

Concierge "The hammam and sauna provide sybaritic pleasure, even if swimsuits dampen the vibe somewhat: Ask the attendant to run a bath for you in one of the steel soaking tubs in the main room."
Fodor's "An extension of André Balazs's trendy and hip yet budget-conscious hotel chain, the shabby-chic Standard is a mile from South Beach on an island just over the Venetian Causeway." Full review
OysterUpscale
"The blissfully remote, adults-only (14 ) Standard is about a mile from the beach, but it's still passionately hip." Full review
Time Out "Combining blond wood walls and white linens, the cabin-like spaces are simply and classy, some with outdoor clawfoot tubs." Full review
Star Service "This trendy spa hotel from Andres Balazs is operating at full steam." Full review
Gayot "Taking over the old Lido Spa, this property aspires to revive (and redefine) bathhouse culture."
BlackBook "Riding on the global "bathhouse" trend, tucked away from the cramped center of South Beach."
Frommer's "The quintessential spa resort, the Standard... is housed in Miami Beach's legendary Lido Spa spot, a place that was swinging back in the days when women still wore bathing caps." Full review
Afar Magazine "The Miami outpost of a hotel brand better known for its Los Angeles and New York properties, the Standard eschews the social scene and party vibe, instead focusing on wellness and health." Full review
Not For Tourists "Not your grandma's bingo, but you might lose bowel control."
