In the playground of celebrities and on the boardwalk of the fashion jet set is where you’ll find W South Beach, a beachfront oasis dreamed up by international tastemakers, framed by famed art deco and in the heart of Miami’s hottest nightlife.

Residences and guest rooms at W South Beach range in size from 574 square-feet to more than 3,000 square-feet with nine-foot ceilings and expansive glass balconies that allow for unparalleled views of South Beach and the glistening Atlantic Ocean. As W’s first all condo hotel, guest rooms offer contemporary, stylish living with soft shades of teal and white, a sleek floor made of white ceramic tiles with a wood grain finish, and floor-to-ceiling screens that delineate the living and sleeping areas.  Modern Italian steel grey sofas are positioned strategically in front of the flat screen plasma televisions inviting guests to chill out before going out, while the photographs of legendary rock photographer Danny Clinch – works of artists ranging from Missy Elliot to Elvis Costello – adorn the walls in guest rooms as well as elevator landings throughout the property.  

Oversized bathrooms feature Cippolino marble vanity countertops with black and gray veining, high-end chrome fixtures and spacious showers. For a true escape, select suites feature Japanese soaking tubs.  Many of W South Beach’s guest rooms feature an Asco stacked washer and dryer and a state-of-the-art kitchenette with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf range, stainless steel microwave, custom lacquered Italian cabinets with either granite or synthetic quartzite countertops, a deep sink basin and chrome fixtures.  All guest rooms and suites feature the signature Munchie Box (W Hotels’ re-interpretation of the traditional hotel Mini Bar) and state-of-the-art entertainment system which includes two plasma televisions, CD and DVD player and docking station for MP3 players, setting the stage for a night on the town or for winding down after a day at the beach.

No one belongs to the trendy South Beach stretch more than Mr Chow, whose pan-Asian-inspired creations have titillated the palettes of celebrities from Beverly Hills and Manhattan to London. If you’re mad about contemporary tastes, savor a modern interpretation of continental cuisine at Dutch, where dining is a romantic art. From the comforts of the cozy Living Room with retro-fabulous chic to lingering and mingling at the WET® Bar & Grille, our decadent indulgences dished in distinctive settings await your exploration, immersion, savoring, lingering, mingling, socializing, canoodling and celebrating.  

Nobody does the renowned South Beach nightlife better than Wall, where nocturnal spins and the allure of playful flirtations beckon. As signature cocktails are shaken and stirred, do your own mixing with the jet set or be seen working the stylish scene, to the beat of the world’s hottest DJ licks. For a more meditative mojito, take it easy at Grove bar, where flying below the radar is the order of the day.

Take a break from the hotspots and dip into our two dramatic WET® pools by the ocean, or work off the indulgences at the state-of-the-art SWEAT® Fitness Center and Swing and Swoosh rooftop courts for tennis and basketball. Or wind down on pristine white sands directly in front of the hotel with the best service on the beach and adventure on the high seas waiting. Fancy some meditative therapy? Revel in the full-service Bliss® Spa, three glorious floors of ooh’s and aah’s. Fancy a meditative moment? Take a stroll through Grove, a lush garden inspired by the baroque of the Nîmes jardin in France.
