The hype
Families rave about the pool and beach service, while couples often complain it's too overrun with children.
Loews Miami Beach Hotel
$350-600+ / noc
Zarezerwuj to, jeśli You're a family who wants the South Beach location without the nightclub chaos, or you need a pool deck that actually keeps kids entertained.
Dlaczego ludzie to uwielbiają
- Direct beach access with four chairs included in the resort fee
- The pool deck is massive and has a dedicated 'SoBe Kids Club'
- Location is walkable to Lincoln Road but just north of the Ocean Drive madness
Szybki przegląd: It's a well-oiled corporate machine that delivers a solid family vacation if you can stomach the $50+ resort fee and $60 valet.
Przejrzane przez @tillystravellingtable: I stayed at the Loews South Beach and it was incredible. The room was spacious with a gorgeous view, and the staff went above and beyond. You have to try the cocktails by the pool—hands down the best in Miami. I'd go back tomorrow if I could!
