"When the owners of Diesel jeans purchased the Pelican in 1999, they started scouring garage sales for just the right ingredients to fuel a mad experiment." Full review

"Diesel jeans joined the hotel game with the Pelican boutique. The 32 unique rooms... are fun, but very worn." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Owned by Italian clothing company Diesel, the Pelican Hotel is an eclectic property in the midst of Ocean Drive’s bustling nightlife scene." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A self-described “toy hotel”, the Pelican is owned by the creative geniuses who own the Diesel brand."
Rough Guide "Irreverent Italian jeanswear company Diesel owns this hotel, so the quirky, campy decor of the rooms should come as no surprise."
Time Out "What do you get when you mix the Diesel fashion label with an art deco hotel? The most whimsical hotel in Miami." Full review

"This clean, modern, extremely low-key, 24-room hotel is on a quiet residential street just south of the South Beach action." Full review
DK Eyewitness "In a trendy area, Hotel St. Augustine is part hotel, part spa, and wholly a refuge from other boutique hotels which mask themselves as lounges."
Gayot "Located near the Third Street Beach, this 1937 Art Deco hotel offers 24 elegantly furnished guest rooms."
BlackBook "Located in SoFi (South of Fifth), this in-the-thick-of-it-all boutique hotel feels blessedly out of the way. Well, out of the traffic and snarl of rookies anyway."
Zagat "Spa-like amenities fill each of the 24 guestrooms in this boutique hotel -- multijet showers that convert into steam cabins (with speakers), aromatherapy oils and skin treatments."
The Telegraph6.0
"A tranquil hideaway located in SoFi (South Beach’s South of Fifth district), the Hotel St. Augustine offers 24 loft-style, spa-inspired guestrooms." Full review
National Geographic "Art Deco landmark with 24 loft-style rooms two blocks off Ocean Drive in the South of Fifth district; bathrooms sport "spa bars" stocked with essential oils, candles, and incense." Full review
