The Villa Casa Casuarina, the former home of Gianni Versace, has been transformed into an elegant Miami Beach retreat. Built in 1930, the mansion has the designer's touch throughout, and is a mix of Spanish and Italian influences coupled with opulent details. The Ocean Drive manor-turned-boutique-hotel features just 10 suites showcasing rich and vibrant hues with only the finest of furnishings displayed. Lounge by the legendary mosaic pool or slip behind the curtain of a luxury beachfront cabana. Sunset cocktails are best enjoyed in the Observatory lounge overlooking the glistening Atlantic Ocean. Casa Casuarina also features a trio of sultry lounges including one for cigar aficionados. Guests can enjoy culinary specialties atop the upper terrace with views of the tropical gardens. The acclaimed fine dining establishment Loftin's 1116 Ocean, with its detailed stone mosaic, adds an element of drama to your meals. It is easy to envision the likes of Madonna or Elton John supping here during Versace's celebrated reign.

Talia was very kind, as was most of the hotel staff, and the mansion on its own is fabulous. staying here was a treat, though the fire alarm went off overnight twice and there are certainly some restaurant staff that were disrespectful. i’d definitely stay here again but i hope that restaurant staff considers how much guests are paying and not to be so rude, especially when we must interact with them to enter and exit the building.

We stayed in the superior suite and the room was amazing, the bed was huuuuuge and really comfortable, the bathroom was clean and we loved the shower with two shower heads. All the staff were really nice especially Talia who helped us check in and upgrade from the regular suite to the superior suite. The food at Giannis is also really good. It was cool to stay in a place with a history like this one. Overall it was an excellent experience!

We stayed at Villa Casa Casuarina. It was a great experience, staff and service was great, especially Talia at the hotel front desk was very so sweet and helpful. We stayed in Gianni Versace's suite, and that was something, with a bed the size of a helicopter landing pad, twin showers for two and myriads of small rooms. We also had lunch, very tasty and again, nice service. Highly recommended, very special experience

This is an expensive place for a unique experience. Large suites with over the top decor. A beautiful restaurant with above average cuisine. Friendly and helpful staff. Unfortunately our experience was marred by loud music from the restaurant and from the lobby until 10:30 to 11:00 PM. It was supposed to stop at 10:30, but one night it continued until after 11:00. It took two calls to the front desk to get music stopped. Because this we would not return.
