Mariott Courtyard
Alright, ready, located at 1530 Washington Avenue, Mariott Courtyard seems to be a good choice to start with. It is at a strategic location, which is very close to the popular Lincoln Road Mall, very nice, and is two blocks away from the Convention Center, where the sand, sun, and sea are accessible.
This smaller version of the first Mariott at Miami Beach offers a family the choice to connect guests’ rooms, or up to 4 suites if you are willing to part with more money.
There are 8 one-bedroom suites available for smaller families. Older children would enjoy the 32-inch flat-screen TV as well as the high-speed internet access. They can rent game consoles and movies from the front desk. One perk for the parents is an in-house Starbucks available downstairs.

Ritz-Carlton South Beach
If you are looking for something high-end for your entire family to enjoy, then you should take a look at Ritz-Carlton South Beach located at One Lincoln Road. This oceanfront hotel offers the choice of one-bedroom suites or two adjoining rooms for families. Now, the best feature of the Ritz Carlton for families is hands down their in-house children’s program which would take care of your children aged 5 to 12 years old with pool-side activities and games for half a day, and even a full day.
The folks at the Ritz Kids Camp start working at 9 am, and all you have to do is register your kids and leave them there with sunscreen and swimwear, and they will be in the care of qualified supervisors.
Drop your kids there while you and your partner enjoy a rejuvenating couples massage at the Ritz Spa, as well as dinner for two at the in-house Evolution Restaurant headed by chef David Bouley.

Loews Miami Beach Hotel for family.
Loews Miami Beach Hotel
If you fear Ritz Carlton might burn a hole in your pocket, head over a block away at 1601 Collins Avenue and you will find the family-oriented Loews Miami Beach.
Depending on the size of your family, you could choose either connecting suites or junior suites for you and your family. Roll-out beds could be requested, and the suites are quite spacious, throughout 750 square feet which allows space for up to 2 rollaway beds.
The kids would also love to know that they are allowed to borrow Game Boys at the desk, as well as DVD players with age-appropriate titles to help them curb boredom – which rarely happens.
