Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel  

On Miami's sun-soaked South Beach in the candy-colored Art Deco District, steps from Collins Avenue shopping and a short walk to the Miami Beach Convention Center, Ocean Drive and the Boardwalk.

This beach hotel mixes sea-and-be-seen revelry with playful "Daylife" — think poolside sundaes and a private sandy oasis for bocce. The 186 guestrooms feature minibars, flat-screen TVs, in-room safes, irons and designer toiletries; some rooms sleep up to four on two beds. A compulsory resort fee (about $15–50 per room/night) is payable at check-in.

Outdoor pool with poolside bar, beach-side food & beverage service, fitness center, gift shop and a lively social program including daily receptions and beach events. Valet parking, laundry and dry cleaning services are available for extra charge. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings and spend afternoons at bocce or poolside ice-cream sundaes.

Complimentary wireless internet plus in-room desks and phones keep you connected; safes and ironing boards add practical touches for working stays.

On-site restaurant and bar offer alfresco dining and a lively lounge scene, with room service during limited hours. Cooked-to-order breakfasts are served daily from 7:30 AM to noon for a fee, and poolside and beach service keep the casual bites coming.
