The Shore Club
It comes as no surprise that Miami's ultimate urban design hotel is located at South Beach. Stark modernism and the white-on-white décor of the 325 rooms and suites is softened by lush Moroccan-inspired tropical gardens. The Nobu restaurant and the Sky Bar are hugely popular with the city's cool crowd.

Ritz-Carlton, South Beach
The former landmark art deco DiLido hotel, designed by Morris Lapidus in the 1950s, is not your typical Ritz-Carlton. Located in the city's hottest neighbourhood, this South Beach stay looks more like a luxury liner when viewed from the pool deck, with two poolside wings. The 375 spacious guest rooms are decorated in bold nautical colours.
