Cool Art Deco
Located right on South Beach, the hip shops on Collins Avenue are at the front of the hotel and the gorgeous Miami Beach is at the rear. In the centre of the action for shopping and dining on Lincoln Road, the Delano is a couple of blocks from Ocean Drive where all the celebrities stroll and party after sunset.
This local South Beach landmark hotel has stood the test of time. Prepare to be wowed by the stunning foyer of this luxury Miami hotel originally designed by Ian Schrager. In true Art Deco style, all the focus went on the first impressions in the huge columned lobby. The rooms are quite small by today’s standards, but they are comfortable, stylishly furnished and more than adequate. The suites at the Delano are still in great demand by celebs and stars from all over the world.
Live decadently in one of the poolside bungalow cabanas with custom designer furnishings and modernist décor. Enjoy the private patio area, rainfall showers, Agua bath products and huge marble soaking tubs whilst sleeping within the sound of the waves. The brilliant white-on-white hotel guest rooms, designed by Philippe Starck, give an illusion of space and cool modern elegance. In contrast, with the blackout blinds drawn the rooms become inky black at night. Angel figures hover above the beds - another Starck innovation. Floorboards are white, walls are mirrored and bathrooms are luxury marble. This cool haven of relaxation is still considered a timeless urban resort and one of the coolest luxury hotels in Miami. Choose from a bright neon-lit city view from your window or a view over the turquoise waters and white sands of Miami beach – two worlds in one location.
The outdoor palm-shaded pool is euphemistically known as the ‘Water Salon’. With soothing underwater music, poolside dining, and quiet areas for floating and meditating, this is a pool like no other. Take an antique daybed and lie out in the Miami sunshine or walk through the landscaped gardens. It’s hard to get motivated to leave this luxury hotel oasis and explore the city sights. Truly a hotel experience which is one-of-a-kind, the Delano offers an unforgettable stay.
