Four Seasons Hotel Miami

Quick visit of just one night after spending time with our daughter in South Beach. Highly recommend using Amex Platinum benefit if you have it to access this hotel - we checked in at noon, got $100 credit which covered a lunch by the pool and had late 4pm check out the next day giving us two beautiful pool days. Staff is very good, room was very nice. For us the pool scene and relaxing poolside was the reason to visit. The pool was huge and the area around it was beautiful. Food served poolside was very good quality. We happened to be there on a Sunday and Monday and Sunday there was a dj spinning - the music selection was great, but not overpowering like a bad nightclub. It was just very relaxed and fun. Had dinner sitting at bar of steak house restaurant in hotel (forget name) and it was very good. This is a really nice place to grab a long weekend, we will definitely return next year as it's my favorite pool in Miami now!

This is not your real Four Seasons experience! We expected a real luxe hotel with the glamour and chicness that has made the group famous. We were very disappointed. To start, It is a tall skyscraper in the middle of town. Not their fault. You have take the lift to the 7th floor to check in and access the hotel. The room is great and spacious but that’s about it. This could be a Hilton or a Marriott. Vast wasted space that didn’t add any value to the place. Breakfast was ok but they said to us, the B&B rate only gave us a max value of $45 each. There was a lobster omelette or something like that on the special menu but it is $60. So I couldn’t take that. They added $8 cappuccino each to our bill!!! So coffee is extra???

We stayed here for 5 nights. In a corner suite. The room is spacious. Very nice bathroom and bedroom. It was very quiet. The people who work here are very pleasant. Two minor items. The room was not ready when we arrived as I had told them 4 times we would arrive at 3PM. We arrived at 4:15. They do not have smart TV's. So no streaming. (Yes it's 2025 not 2010). Valet was great. Everything worked.

Luxurious and roomy suite. Extra large bathroom with great amenities including slippers, robes, lotions, etc. only thing not working in the room was the scale. Staff was attentive and professional. Pool was relaxing with hammocks set over wading pool and under palm trees.

Pros: Great pillows and pool. Nice room, clean hotel, great valet service. Good service at pool check in. We loved the Vapiano pizza place a block away. The food at the pool was good. Loved the smell and cleanliness of the hotel. Good DJ at the pool on weekends but around noon there’s a shortage of chairs on a Saturday. Excellent daily cleaning service. Tasty food. There’s a baby pool and pool table in the pool area. Loved that the pool is open 24h and the pool area is always clean. Cons: slow to get food and drink orders at the pool. Nice Equinox gym on 4th floor that’s included. Lots of construction in the area and we have a view of the construction site from our room. Beautiful flowers in the lobby. Not much to do with kids in walking distance other than pool, and walking to City Centre. They don’t offer beach chairs at the Four Seasons on Miami Beach. It would have been nice to check out books or board games. No early check ins or late check outs despite it being in the request. I would stay here again if I had work in downtown.
