The hotel will be developed on Brickell Key, a prime waterfront site featuring unobstructed views of Biscayne Bay and the Miami downtown skyline. A city resort, the hotel features 329 luxurious guest rooms, a signature restaurant and bar, lobby lounge, conference and banqueting facilities and full service spa.

The Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne, set on 12 acres of waterfront, prides itself on its atmosphere of casual elegance and its signature restaurant, Cioppino. The resort echoes its tropical surroundings with Floridian-style decor and formal but comfortable public spaces. Guests are an international mix of business travelers and vacationers, including families.

During the week, guests are primarily business travelers. On weekends, vacationers take advantage of the hotel's proximity to Coconut Grove's nightlife and its easy access to downtown Miami, Coral Gables, and Miami Beach. The hotel's Italian Renaissance style is inspired by nearby Villa Vizcaya, a lavish mansion built in the early 1900s and surrounded by formal gardens.

Set in the financial district and opening onto the famed shopping/dining street called Miracle Mile, the hotel attracts business travelers and shoppers. The hotel dates from 1991, but it incorporates--and honors in design--the historic, 60-foot-high, Neoclassical-style Rotunda that developer George Merrick used as a real-estate sales office when he founded Coral Gables in 1926.

A polished, white, automated piano maintains an up-tempo beat in the expansive atrium lobby, which has discreet seating areas with leather sofas and chairs and abundant artwork, including a giant sculpture by Yaacov Agam that nearly touches the ceiling. The hotel draws a mix of business and leisure travelers and often hosts the headliners performing at the adjoining James L. Knight Center.

In 1925, William Vanderbilt created a splendid winter estate on a 216 acre island just off the coast of gleaming Miami and Miami Beach. He called it Fisher Island. Today, it has been restored to its former grandeur as the luxurious Fisher Island Club, with the finest recreational amenities and accommodations to be found anywhere. From its lovely tile-roofed Vanderbilt Mansion, its charming oceanside beach club and intimate restaurants, gracious cottages and guest houses, deep water marinas, one mile of sugar soft beach, oceanfront golf course, tennis center with clay, grass and hard courts, and Spa Internazionale, the Fisher Island Club easily qualifies to win Vogue Magazine's prize for splendid isolation.

The stateof the art David Barton gym and the critically acclaimed Blue Door Restaurant featuring the cuisine of world famous Chef Claude Troigros.

Bombay fans gently whir overhead, towering columns grace the comfortable seating area, palm trees dot the landscape, and terra cotta floors add casualness to the spacious lobby. A boardwalk at the back of the property overlooks the hotel’s exquisite gardens and ocean. Business and leisure guests enjoy cocktails on the outdoor veranda overlooking the beach.

Opened in 1983 and located 4 blocks from the heart of bustling Coconut Grove and 6 miles from downtown Miami, this hotel attracts both business travelers and vacationers. The hotel is busier on weekends than during the week, when it fills up with vacationers eager to enjoy Coconut Grove's nightlife and shopping. As in many of Miami's hotels, guests are an international mix.

Exquisitely landscaped grounds and gardens flank the winding path to the 650-acre resort's three-story clubhouse, where arriving leisure travelers check in. The comfortable, wood-accented lobby houses Doral's Hall of Champions, featuring portraits of the last 40 years of PGA winners.
