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.

One night at Venus suite was a special memory. Not only is the beauty in the details of the room. But it was the experience. We got a special tour of the villa and romantic dinner with a front table to the mosaic 24k pool. The following morning we were treated to a solo swim in the pool followed with mimosas, specialty cappucinos and a full included breakfast of steaks and eggs before the restaurant was open to the public. What was special was soaking in the attention to detail and craftsmanship of many Italian fresco and mosaic artists. A tragic but besutiful place, my heart aches for their family who created such a beautiful masterpiece that ended in tragedy. We went to versace and bought items to honor them while there. A memory experience to get a intimate view of the artwork and drama of the home. Amazing service and hospitality. Modern isnt always better. I am a old school romantic.

Our stay at The Villa Casa Casuarina (formerly the iconic Versace Mansion) from July 23–29, 2026, was without a doubt one of the most extraordinary travel experiences we've ever had. This is by far the most beautiful Art Deco hotel we have ever stayed in. Every detail is breathtaking—from the architecture and interiors to the unique atmosphere where history and luxury come together. We still can't believe how lucky we were to book this stay. The Black Friday deal on Booking.com was simply unbelievable and, honestly, feels impossible to find today. It was a true travel jackpot. With only 10 rooms, each one is completely unique. This isn't a hotel with standard rooms—every suite has its own personality and story. Seeing Gianni Versace's room was a truly special experience. To make our stay even more memorable, we were offered a wonderful upgrade to the Safari Suite, complete with a beautiful balcony overlooking Ocean Drive. Waking up and ending each day with that view was unforgettable. A special thank you goes to the amazing staff. Talia, Flama, and the gentleman who helped us with our luggage made us feel less like hotel guests and more like family. Their kindness, warmth, professionalism, and genuine care made all the difference and are a big part of what makes this place so special. Although the hotel's Gianni Restaurant welcomes non-hotel guests from 11:00 a.m., it only adds to the vibrant atmosphere. It was a pleasure meeting interesting people from all over the world while still enjoying the intimate charm of this unique property. This trip was especially meaningful for us because we celebrated my girlfriend's birthday here, and just three days later she became my fiancée. We truly couldn't have imagined a more romantic and unforgettable place for such an important milestone in our lives. Thank you to everyone at The Villa Casa Casuarina for creating memories that will stay with us forever. This is much more than a luxury hotel—it's a place with soul, history, and people who make you want to come back. 10/10. We wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to experience the true spirit of Miami, timeless luxury, and the magic of the legendary home of Gianni Versace.

An absolutely extraordinary experience from start to finish. Staying at the Versace Mansion exceeded every expectation. The property is breathtaking, with unmatched beauty, history, and elegance in every detail. It truly feels like stepping into a world of timeless luxury. What made our stay even more exceptional was the incredible staff. Every team member was gracious, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our visit unforgettable. A very special thank you to Fiama at the reception desk. Her professionalism, warmth, and impeccable hospitality made us feel like VIP guests from the moment we arrived. She went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our stay was perfect. The service, atmosphere, and overall experience were simply flawless. If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind luxury stay in Miami, there is no place quite like the Versace Mansion. We left with unforgettable memories and are already looking forward to our next visit. Five stars in every way.
