The Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, Miami
In an ultra-laid-back setting on serene Key Biscayne, it's only natural to appreciate the Ritz hallmarks of pampering with luxurious rooms, attentive service, five on-property dining options, and ample recreational activities for the whole family. An expansive, grand lobby feels like an old-world European villa. Beyond the doors lies a large garden area that leads to the pools and beach beyond. Rooms, bathed in ocean blues and earth tones, feature either a resort or water view with floor-to-ceiling windows, balcony, and workspace. A 25,000-square-foot spa offers unique services based on Florida's rich Caribbean and Tequesta roots. The property's five eateries take you through the gastronomy and beverages of Cuba (RUMBAR), Mexico (Cantina Beach), New York (Key Pantry, offering a Dean & Deluca–style market), and back to Miami (Dune, Burgers on the Beach, and Lightkeepers, the hotel's flagship, coastal-cuisine restaurant). An 11-court tennis "garden" with daily clinics, a private beach, and beachside water sports are other options. The Club Level offers food and beverage presentations throughout the day, and the Ritz Kids club has expanded its full-, half-day, and Saturday-night programs to include island history, fishing, and beach treasure hunts. Borrow bikes here to explore Bill Baggs Park and its lighthouse.
