Concierge "A showstopper resort that's a bold step away from the Federal-style-and-Oriental-rug look of its sister properties."
OysterUpscale
"A huge (though relaxed) beachfront resort with reliable service, a great pool, a top-notch spa, and a modern fitness center, the Ritz offers more for the money." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Just steps away from a surfeit of dining, shopping, and entertainment choices, this Ritz-Carlton is located directly on the beach."
Star Service "Located on a prized stretch of sand next to the stylized Sagamore, the Ritz-Carlton, South Beach remains the most interesting of Ritz-Carlton's contrasting Miami triumvirate." Full review
Gayot "In a neighborhood teeming with monuments to 1950s architecture, this new take on an old favorite surpasses its competitors when it comes to savvy style."
BlackBook "No other Ritz in the world has a tricked-out poolside DJ who looks as if he stepped straight out of Studio 54 circa 1978."
Zagat4.0
""Everyone should stay here at least once" rave devotees of this "elegant", "indulgent" oceanfront "icon" that is "well located near restaurants and shops."
Forbes Travel Guide Recommended
"This landmark property, originally designed by legendary Miami architect Morris Lapidus, boasts an ideal location — at the foot of South Beach’s Lincoln Road Mall on the Atlantic Ocean." Full review
Fodor's "There are all the usual high-level draws the Ritz is known for, that is, attentive service, a kids' club, a club level with five food presentations a day, and high-end restaurants." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "You can't ask for much more at the Ritz-Carlton, South Beach, a 375-key oceanfront spot." Full review

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."
