The hype
Travelers love the pool deck and the attentive staff (mostly), but everyone hates the prices.

Értékelte @harmony.buys.houses: I checked into The Ritz-Carlton South Beach for a mental reset. The room was pure luxury—especially that marble bathroom and the super plush king bed. It felt like the perfect reward for all the hard work lately.

Tisztaság és karbantartás
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally sharp, with twice-daily service often available. Some reports of missed dust in renovated corners.
- Bathroom hygiene: Marble bathrooms are usually sparkling, though humidity can cause minor grout mildew in lower-floor showers.
- Maintenance: Renovated in 2020, so still fresh, but high traffic means scuffs on baseboards and worn carpets in hallways appear quickly.
- Linens & towels: High-quality Frette linens, usually crisp and white. Pool towels are plentiful.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of the signature Ritz floral scent; hallways can occasionally smell musty due to Miami humidity.

Foglalás előtt
Jó tudni
- The Club Lounge does NOT have an outdoor terrace—a weird design choice for Miami.
- Beach chairs are included in the resort fee, but front-row 'daybeds' cost extra.
- The entrance is tucked away on a side street, not the grand Lincoln Road facade you might expect.
Mit csomagoljak be
- Noise-canceling headphones for the pool (and maybe the room)
- A high-end cover-up (the pool deck is a fashion show)
- Your own water bottle (bottled water on property is $10+)
Szobagenie

- Rooms near the elevator banks (high foot traffic noise)

“I am celebrating a special occasion and would love a room on a higher floor facing the ocean to minimize pool noise. Please avoid any rooms with obstructed views of the roof/HVAC systems.”
GYIK és rejtett tippek
Minden, amit tényleg tudni szeretnél a foglalás előtt.
Is the Club Level worth the upgrade?
Only if you plan to eat 3 meals a day there. The food is excellent (5 presentations daily), but the lack of a balcony makes it feel a bit like an airport lounge.
How bad is the noise?
It's South Beach. Expect pool music during the day and street noise at night. Ask for a high floor ocean-facing room for the best chance of quiet.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the infinity pool is heated year-round, which is crucial for those breezy January days.
Can I walk to restaurants?
Yes, you are in the absolute center. Hundreds of restaurants are within a 5-minute walk, from fast food to fine dining.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, but it's pricey: $250 non-refundable fee plus a $250 deposit. Weight limit is 35 lbs.
Is there a resort fee?
Yes, a mandatory ~$74.10 per night. It covers beach chairs, bike rentals, and fitness classes.
Insider tippek
- ✨
The 'Timeless Capsule' in the spa offers express treatments in a private pod—great for a quick refresh without the full spa ritual.
- ✨
Walk two blocks south to 'Rosetta Bakery' for an Italian breakfast that costs 1/4 of the hotel buffet.
- ✨
The resort fee includes a daily mixology or fitness class—ask the concierge for the schedule as they don't always advertise it well.
5 dolog, amit tudnod kell az utazás előtt
💡The 'awkward orange privacy screen' in some rooms that serves no real purpose.
💡The lobby entrance is actually kind of underwhelming and surrounded by generic mall shops.
💡You have to wear a wristband to access the pool deck, which feels a bit 'all-inclusive resort' for a Ritz.
💡The 'City View' is often a euphemism for 'Roof & AC Unit View'.
💡The gym is windowless and tucked away—definitely an afterthought in the renovation.
