Fontainebleau Miami Beach

A landmark of Miami Modern architecture, the Fontainebleau Miami Beach is a sprawling oceanfront resort that blends the glamour of a bygone era with contemporary luxury. Designed by architect Morris Lapidus, the hotel’s structure is a spectacle of grand curves, dramatic lines, and opulent details. The building’s signature curve follows the coastline, maximizing ocean views from many of its rooms. Inside, the vast lobby immediately captures the imagination with its soaring ceilings, polished marble floors, and the iconic “Staircase to Nowhere,” a purely theatrical element designed for making a grand entrance. The hotel is composed of several towers, including the original Chateau and Versailles buildings, which house a variety of guest rooms and suites, each offering a distinct style and perspective on the property’s vibrant surroundings.

The Fontainebleau is a centerpiece of Mid-Beach, a neighborhood known for its more relaxed atmosphere compared to the bustling energy of South Beach, yet it remains a hub of activity and style. The area is defined by a mix of historic hotels and modern developments, all fronting a wide expanse of pristine sand and turquoise water. The Miami Beach Boardwalk runs directly behind the property, offering a scenic path for walking, jogging, or cycling along the coast. While the hotel itself is a self-contained world of entertainment and relaxation, its location provides easy access to the wider attractions of Miami Beach, creating a perfect balance between a secluded resort experience and the vibrant culture of the city.
