1 Hotel South Beach
South Beach, Collins Avenue; Miami Beach, United States

1 Hotel South Beach gives a large beachfront resort a tactile design identity through reclaimed timber, coral stone and other reused or regionally sourced materials. Its rooms continue that approach with water filtration and practical details intended to reduce disposable items. The setting supports days between the beach, pool areas and rooftop, while Bamford Wellness Spa and Anatomy fitness programming add a substantial wellness component. Dining is notably varied: Watr offers Japanese-inspired food above the shoreline, AVIV brings an Israeli influence, Tala Beach looks to Spain, and Plnthouse serves lighter fare. A children's programme, bicycles and pet-friendly arrangements widen the hotel's usefulness for different types of trip. We recommend it for travellers who enjoy a lively, contemporary resort with a strong material character and many places to eat. Its size is part of the experience, so it suits guests who will use several facilities over the course of the stay. Leave time for both the shoreline and the rooftop.
