The Beacon Hotel South Beach is in the heart of the Art Deco
District directly across from the beach on the famed Ocean Drive.
The hotel boasts beautiful terrazzo flooring, quirky furnishings and
is chock full of understated sophistication while still managing to
retain the integrity of the hotel's original 1937 grand design.
This five-story beachfront landmark features
75
spacious rooms and 3 suites, all with ocean views. It was completely
renovated in 2002 and decked out with modern amenities. Upon
entering the hotel, the Beacon's intimate lobby greets visitors with
a small reception area and bar that join a small sitting area with
Deco-inspired furnishings and a large-screen TV.
A mezzanine level looks out over the lobby and
houses a small library of paperbacks.
All accommodations include marble floors, ample
closets, individually controlled A/Cs, in-room telephones with
voicemail and data ports, cable TVs, snack bars, coffee/ makers,
iron and ironing boards, mini bars, safe-deposits
in each room, down comforters,
morning newspapers and high-speed Internet access. VCRs are
available on request. Walls are painted a soothing white that is
accented with marble floors, dark furnishings and Art Deco
accessories.
The property offers turndown, limousine and
babysitting services and a complimentary continental breakfast is
served each morning. Rendezvous, the hotel's sidewalk café, offers
great food along with views of the beach, Ocean Drive and is a prime
spot for people watching.
The menu is an innovative cuisine of the
Americas, coupled with the flavors of the Caribbean. There's no
swimming pool on-site, but a fitness center was added in 2004 and
guests have privileges at the nearby Lancôme spa.
Because of its prime Ocean Drive location,
guests are steps from Lincoln Road Mall, the Miami Beach Botanical
Garden, the Miami Beach Convention Center, designer shopping
boutiques, art galleries, trendy sidewalk cafés and popular
nightspots. |
