THE VILLA CASUARINA
The whole hotel exudes a vintage European charm. This is natural given the fact that this property in Ocean Drive has been for a long time the Miami home of one of the most talented designers in the world: Gianni Versace. After Gianni Versace’s passing, the property was sold and renamed Casa Casuarina. Over the years, it has been reimagined, transforming into a exclusive hotel – with just ten suites – and an acclaimed restaurant while preserving its enchanting, one-thousand-and-one-nights atmosphere.
The layout is reminiscent of a Moroccan riad, featuring ten exclusive suites and an outdoor space illuminated in a way that pays tribute to the incomparable genius of Gianni Versace. This property is located on Ocean Drive, the heart of Miami Beach at a walkable distance from restaurants, clubs, and shopping.

THE BETSY
You can immediately tell the Betsy Hotel is different: She looks like a demure Southern Belle set in a sea of flamboyant Art Deco divas. Situated at the quieter end of Ocean Drive – where everything pulse in South Beach – the white building has a Georgian facade and a sweeping front porch that looks like something you’d find in the oak-shrouded Deep South rather than in sexed-up South Beach. Just off the lobby, Chef Tourondel oversees the famous Miami hotspot, BLT Steak.
This property is located on Ocean Drive.

THE NATIONAL
The National Miami Beach has this incredible old-school vibe that just hits different. They went adults-only a few years back, and honestly, it was the perfect move for a getaway. Their long pool is absolutely gorgeous—surrounded by towering palms that make you feel like you’re in some private oasis. During the day, it’s super chill, but when evening rolls around and they light all those candles? Pure magic.
The private beach access is clutch, and you can take amazing sunset walks through their garden area. Nothing fancy about the rooms—they’re pretty simple, actually—but that’s kind of the charm. It feels authentically retro without trying too hard.
Breakfast at the Pool Lounge Bar might just become your favourite part of the day—something about eating outdoors with that ocean breeze just hits right. On weekends, you might even luck out and catch some live jazz on Saturday night. Location-wise, it’s literally right across from Lincoln Road, so you can duck out for shopping or dinner and be back in your peaceful bubble in minutes.
