Hotels with Breakfast in Miami Beach

My wife and I stayed at Esmé Miami Beach for a night in mid-May, right after our cruise, and thoroughly enjoyed it. The location is a real strength: firmly in South Beach, close enough to soak up the energy of Miami Beach yet tucked away enough to feel relaxed. Access to the beach is effortless (about 6 minutes), and the complimentary beach beds were a genuinely welcome touch. They also kindly offered us complimentary early check-in, which — coming straight off the ship — made all the difference in starting the stay smoothly. The hotel has character. It's tastefully designed with a stylish latin boutique feel — warm, elegant, and far more personal than a standard property. The rooftop pool was a particular highlight: well laid out and a lovely spot to unwind. Throughout our stay, the staff were attentive, friendly, and consistently welcoming. Española Way, just steps behind the hotel, offers a good spread of restaurants and cafés — easy to step out for dinner, drinks, or a casual evening stroll without ever needing to drive. Overall, we loved our stay and would happily recommend it

Room clean but very small. Friendly service. As people over 70, we did not feel at ease. On the first day, there was a pool party at the swimming pool, and we didn't feel inclined to go to the pool. (Saturday) On the day of departure, Sunday, we were able to use the pool after checking out. However, 80% of the sunbeds by the pool were reserved. The music volume is between 80 and 118 decibels. Around 10:30 PM, there was also a noise disturbance. Something was done about this after a phone call. In short: Nice place for young people, but they won't see me here again…

Location is perfect. The bathroom was great and clean Price is high, the AC was freezing cold and yet there is no real blanket. The curtains are not light proof and there are no shelves clise to the bed. Overall recommended!

The lobby is freezing cold. The staffs are friendly. The check-in wait time was about 20 minutes because there was only one front desk staff and the group before us spent too much time. The room is decent and clean. Love the balcony and direct access to the beach. The pool is kinda small, but they have two pools.

Honestly, the Ritz-Carlton rarely disappoints, and this stay perfectly met my expectations for a South Beach getaway. The breakfast was incredibly rich and varied, especially the fruit selection which was abundant and unique. My only minor regret was the absence of a salad option, which felt a bit odd for someone used to having vegetables for breakfast. While the staff kindly brought me some avocado and tomato, it still felt like I was missing out on some Vitamin C. I'm not sure if it's a Southern thing to treat fruit as a vegetable, but the lack of salad was a bit surprising. What truly delighted me was finding out that the lobby featured Krigler, a perfume brand Audrey Hepburn loved. As a big fan of hers, I didn't hesitate to purchase a bottle.

Couldn't find the beach bar where it should be. 5 dollar bottle of water that is in your room. Small rooms, you couldn't open a suitcase. Don't use the valet, it's a big scam. You can park 5 minutes walk away for 20 dollars a day.

At the beach in central Miami, the beach is at the doorstep. The shape is a 50s and 60s building, and the interior is a modern style that has just been renovated. It is very comfortable to live in, and there are fewer restaurants around.

Boulan South Beach – Honest Review I recently stayed at Boulan South Beach and overall had a great experience, with a few minor drawbacks. Positives: The location is fantastic—just one block from the beach and in a very walkable area surrounded by great restaurants and bars. The hotel itself offers solid amenities, including a small but relaxing rooftop pool with a bar. One of the highlights of my stay was dining at Orange Blossom, the on-site restaurant. The food was excellent, and I’d highly recommend checking it out even if you’re not staying at the hotel. The rooms are well-appointed, apartment-style suites that feel spacious and thoughtfully designed. I also appreciated how quiet the rooms were—perfect for getting a good night’s sleep after a day out. Negatives: That said, I was disappointed by the bed. The listing advertised a pillow-top mattress, but the bed was far from comfortable and fell short of our expectations. Also, for a room that otherwise felt luxurious, the lack of bathrobes was a small detail that would’ve really rounded out a luxurious experience. Additionally, while the room was clean, some of the design choices were lovely but weren’t the most practical for a hotel setting. The cloth-upholstered bed frame, while stylish, showed some staining—fabric furniture can be hard to keep looking fresh in a high-turnover “fun” environment. Similarly, the jute rug added visual texture but proves to be difficult to clean and showed signs of wear. Final Thoughts: Boulan South Beach is a solid choice if you’re looking for a stylish, well-located hotel in South Beach with great amenities and a quieter, more refined atmosphere. Just be aware of a few comfort and design trade-offs. It really is too bad, because Boulan is excellent on so many things and I would 100% go back and definitely recommend this hotel to others… However, the bed quality really brought down the overall appeal. If they can improve that one aspect, this would easily be a top-tier stay in South Beach.

We also used the private beach! Please note that service to both the pool and beach ends at 5pm. It was great that there were refillable bottles in the room and water could be refilled anywhere in the hotel! It's more eco-friendly than plastic bottles. We upgraded to a spacious junior suite, which was a great choice! Our family of four had plenty of room to spare. The bathroom was spacious, with a separate shower and chair. The amenities also had a nice scent. It was easily accessible from the airport, and we arrived in about 15 minutes by Uber for about 3,500 yen! From our room, we could see the neighboring tower apartment building and the beach.
