The hotel

Step into a Miami retreat at The Palms Hotel & Spa, an oceanfront resort surrounded by tropical foliage that'll make you feel like you are on a paradise island. Dine at Essensia Restaurant on a Caribbean-style covered terrace to give you that island feeling while savouring gourmet cuisine. You’ll also be able to wake up and enjoy unobstructed floor-to-ceiling panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean from an oceanfront room, or watch the lively and buzzing city life from a city view room. Whichever you choose you’ll be able to see exciting scenes being so close to South Beach.

Hotel is in a great convenient location. Chris at the concierge desk was very helpful in planning our weekend visit. The beach access was clutch. There are lounge chairs set up and available. The beach is extremely clean. Hotel grounds were also clean and all staff were very friendly.

Reception and all staff extremely professional. Rooms are very well appointed with large beds. Pool area is very nice with well kept plants and Palms. Pool bar offers comfortable sunbeds and great food, prices are in keeping with Miami (quite expensive) but in line with all external hotel places. Highly recommended hotel, and more than happy to return Read less

This was our second visit to the Palms this year. We discovered this gem to our delight and already feel like it is a home away from home. We love everything about it. Everyone has a smile and good word. The beauty of the grounds and the pool are calming, the beach is fabulous, the food was good and consistent, and the people are the best! The rooms are beautiful, and views of the city and beach are great. Although, if you can, I highly recommend the ocean view! We love the Palms and can't wait to return over and over and over!
