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.

Peaceful, relaxing stay at beautiful gem of a resort in Miami Beach

During my 7 night stay in Miami Beach, 4 nights were spent at The Palms Hotel and 3 nights at another 4 star hotel. The Palms has the perfect formula: large pool and beach area + relatively small hotel = uncrowded outdoor spaces. Even on the busiest days we never had to hunt or wait for an open chair. We love the chair covers for the lounge chairs at both the pool and beach, those are fantastic! Staff were attentive, friendly, professional and helpful. The food available at the pool and beach was high quality offering both delicious, healthy salads and bowls, as well as comfort favorites. Compared to same class larger hotel, we received a superior experience at The Palms with less crowds and much fewer rowdy adults and wild young children. At first we thought we would miss having a hot tub, but the pool is heated well enough and at the other resort the hot tub was always filled with young children anyway. Highly recommend The Palms for a peaceful, relaxing stay in Miami Beach!

Excellent place to stay while visiting the area. Have stayed there multiple times. Beautiful resort. Clean rooms, comfy beds, friendly and helpful staff. Great location. You can walk to get food or stay in. Beach area was nice. Go down early and chairs are already out. Beach attendants walk out and place towels out for you. Food and drinks can be ordered from the beach and the food was excellent. Hotel backs up to the Miami Boardwalk which you can use for leisure or walking to other restaurants.

Not as expected
Oct 25, 2024lama s
Overall is okay but not a great customer service
The manager was not nice and they asked for an upgrade to give us the room although I was there for a couple of nights .
I had a migraine and I have a bridal appointment after couple of hours and they wouldn’t accommodate us .
Amazing !!!

Very nice ! Patricia & Neptune were amazing !! Very helpful and caring staff. Absolutely will be back. The pool and beach were lovely, good food & quick service. The weather was a little windy but the beach staff took great care of us despite the weather.
