About the Hotel

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.

Reviews for The Villa Casa Casuarina

Versace Mansion

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

The entire visit was great. The customer service was outstanding. I wish they would have had more of a versace theme. The bed set was the only versace item in the room. That’s just a personal request. I will definitely will be visiting again. Franchesca was amazing, when we were in the pool. She was very attentive and will always check in; eve thought, she had her own tables. Night security was amazing and attentive. The breakfast crew was amazing and knew our order by the send night. One morning we woke up late and the crew was so kind to offer room service!

Best Botique hotel , hands down.

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 days ago

This is such an amazing place . It’s like being able to stay in a museum. There are many statues and works of art . I’m guessing all this was left by Mr Versace himself. The furniture was custom made and extremely expensive looking . Many details that I’ve never seen before in a Botique hotel . Thank you for keeping this open to the public.

As a solo traveler, my stay at The Villa Casa Casuarina in Miami Beach was unforgettable. The staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. I enjoyed breakfast each morning by the pool with excellent service. A truly welcoming experience in a stunning setting!

Great experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 months ago

I know there are some poor reviews for this restaurant, but I could honestly say we had a great experience! The restaurant is really lovely and the set menu at 38 dollars is brilliant value and the food was very nice. If you are a Versace fan then ignore the critical reviews and go for it! We didn't stay so can't comment on accommodation.

The Villa Casa Casuarina: A Stay Beyond Imagination

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 months ago

Reviewing The Villa Casa Casuarina, forever etched in my memory as The Versace Mansion, feels like an impossible task. How does one do justice to an experience of a lifetime? From the moment I held the brass key in my hand, I knew this was no ordinary stay. Greeted by my personal valet—butler (titles blur when service transcends expectations)—I found my bags unpacked, my clothes beautifully hung, and my every need anticipated. The mansion itself is a masterpiece. By day, the grounds exude magic, each corner brimming with beauty and history. By night, the lighting transforms the property into an epic romance—soft glows and shadows creating an almost dreamlike atmosphere. The bar, adorned with 14-karat gold inlaid floor tiles, is a sparkling indulgence, while the interior architecture is nothing short of breathtaking. Every room is a revelation. The 12-foot-wide bed draped in red satin, a favorite of Elton John and Paul McCartney, was a sanctuary of luxury. Arriving to find a chocolate choo-choo train laden with treats in my room was an unexpected delight. The living room, rich in detail and comfort, was impossible to leave, as was the magnificent bathroom with its exquisite showers—every element designed to pamper and inspire awe. Dining at The Villa Casa Casuarina is a sensory journey. Seated on the patio surrounded by the romance of fountains, the soft hum of music, and an array of savory creations that redefine perfection, I was immersed in an ambiance of pure enchantment. The service, flawless and attentive, elevated the experience to heavenly heights. The Villa Casa Casuarina is not just a place to stay; it’s a world unto itself—a symphony of history, luxury, and artistry. Even after days of reflecting on my visit, I know I’ve only scratched the surface. It was, in every way, an experience of a lifetime.
