The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach

One Lincoln Road, Miami Beach, FL 33139, United States

Guest reviews: 7.9

HOTEL OVERVIEW

So I’ve stayed at The Ritz-Carlton South Beach a few times now, and honestly? It’s one of those places that feels almost too polished for Miami Beach – which is saying something. The moment you walk into that Lincoln Road entrance, you know you’re not at your typical South Beach party hotel. The lobby has this understated elegance that’s refreshing when you’re coming from the neon chaos of Ocean Drive just a few blocks away.

What really gets me about this place is the location – you’re literally at the corner of Lincoln Road and the beach, which means you can stumble out for breakfast at Joe’s Stone Crab (when it’s in season) or hit up the Lincoln Road pedestrian mall for some people watching, then be back poolside in five minutes. The pool area, by the way, is where this hotel really shines. It’s tucked away from the street noise, which is crucial because Lincoln Road can get pretty rowdy, especially on weekends. I mean, the rooms are gorgeous – all that Art Deco meets modern luxury thing they’ve got going on – but that pool deck with the cabanas is where you’ll actually want to spend your time. The beach access is solid too, though you know how South Beach sand gets everywhere, so good luck with that.

Here’s the thing though – and this might matter depending on what you’re after – this Ritz feels more like where the parents stay when their kids are partying at the W or 1 Hotel down the beach. The vibe is sophisticated, service is impeccable (they remember your name after one night, which is honestly a little unsettling but impressive), and the spa is legitimately amazing if you need to recover from… well, whatever Miami throws at you. Parking is valet only, which will run you about $45 a night, but that’s pretty standard for this part of South Beach. The real insider tip? Ask for a room facing west toward the city – the sunset views over Biscayne Bay are incredible, and you’ll avoid the early morning beach crowds and construction noise from Collins Avenue. Just don’t expect the wild South Beach experience you see in movies; this place is more about refined luxury than pool parties. Which, depending on your age and energy level, might be exactly what you’re looking for.

The Ritz is always a win for me...no matter which country I visit. This was a but more laid back than what I'm used to from them but it was still nice.
