— Miami, United States —
The Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne
An Insider's Take
'This tropical paradise sits on pristine Crandon Beach, where luxury meets laid-back island vibes just minutes from Miami's buzzing energy.'
What's Special?
The Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne occupies a unique barrier island location with 2 miles of protected beach that's consistently rated among America's top 10 beaches. The property features the largest spa in South Florida and sits adjacent to Crandon Park, home to rare coastal ecosystems and the historic Cape Florida Lighthouse built in 1825.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book oceanfront rooms on floors 6-9 for unobstructed Atlantic views and stunning sunrises, while avoiding potential construction noise from Miami's skyline across the bay.

The hotel's RUMBAR offers craft cocktails with locally-sourced ingredients, and the beach club provides complimentary access to water sports including kayaking through mangrove channels.
