The most iconic hotel on Miami Beach — the Fontainebleau has occupied its curved Collins Avenue landmark since 1954, designed by Morris Lapidus and synonymous with Miami glamour ever since. Over 1,500 rooms, 12 pools, multiple restaurants and nightlife venues including LIV, and direct oceanfront access. Not the most intimate or refined choice — but for guests who want the full high-energy Miami Beach resort experience at scale, nothing else delivers quite like it.
