This classic Miami resort has had a number of updates, with nice rooms and accommodations. The pool can get loud and hectic on the weekends, feels like Vegas a bit. Beach is beautiful friendly service

A fly-by of the Fontainebleau Resort was used at the beginning of Goldfinger (1964) as an establishing shot. Sadly the scenes with Bond and Goldfinger were filmed using back-projection in the studio. Read more

Book the Island Cabana located at the center of the Round Pool and be the center of La Côte’s - the poolside restaurant - attention. http://bachelor10.com/venue/515/miami/fontainebleau

The party is still going strong at the Fontainebleau, a best of Miami landmark. The 3,700-square-meter spa and more subdued Sorrento and Tresor pools provide a respite. Read more

Junior suites are great if you can get a deal. Extremely comfortable beds. Very clubby at night.

Hands down one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at! Service was incredible. I felt like a movie star! We had a great view. The only hotel I will stay at while in Miami.

With a nod to the glamorous, high-flying heydays of its original 1954 incarnate, this resort remains opulent & flashy. Its megaclub, LIV, draws crowds to see DJ's like Calvin Harris, Tiesto, and more. Read more

Hands down one of the best hotel. There is everything at FB no need to go anywhere when you stay at FB. Great restaurants, best nightclub and the ocean is steps away 💕

Huge place. It's a lot of fun. We had an issue and it was resolved beautifully. Staying here from now on because the Mondrian has gone downhill. And this place has a beach.

Ask for the upgrade to Sorrento Tower when checking in (it's most recently renovated). Hit the poolside chairs by 9am during holiday weekends and buy the robe at Lapis.

This place is the other half of the Fontainebleau lobby, a glowing aqua and purple den of drink where you'll spot big-shot business guys and local TV celebs. Read more

Love this resort! WiFi had major connectivity issues, but everything else was great - love the pools, beach access, nightclub, and food!
Panos TzivanidisApril 18, 2017
A place rich in history. Very nice pools & access to the beach but everything is over priced (fame comes with a price). Main building hotel rooms (Chateau) very basic & tired but spacious.
Alaa BadranJuly 25, 2016
Very nice swimming pools and beach. Rooms are specious and relaxing especially the one with Bay view
Brian LoganApril 27, 2015
The FedEx Office Business Center is really good. The employees are very helpful. They're also kind. For guests their service is open 24/7. They open at 7AM as well. I recommend.
Julio PatiñoApril 12, 2016
Beautiful hotel, pool, and mostly beautiful people. best nightclub in Miami inside too. The best of everything or close to it, if you can afford it.
LenaJuly 29, 2015
Great view and nice staff. The pools are nice and clean. The restaurants serve delicious food. One con: it's not near the city center.

If you want a great meal and romantic then eat at scarpetta. Have the polenta with truffle mushrooms, it is so good.
Ale JandríaOctober 30, 2014
This hotel is spectacular.. The private beach is to die for.. The only thing is that the restaurants are extremely expensives and there's no restaurants close that you could walk to

My favorite place to stay in Miami. Upscale, luxurious and full of rich history.

Gorgeous hotel with awesome lobby bar to grab drinks in before going to LIV!

The legendary Fontainebleau is as glamourous as ever. It's home to LIV - a top global night club. Restaurants satisfy hardcore foodies & the 11 acre pool show visitors how Miami plays.

Bling is beautiful at the Fontainebleau. Sofas curve round marble columns, chandeliers drip from the ceiling, and the famous ‘staircase to nowhere’ winds round a gilded wall Read more

Fabulous Hotel, Glamorous and chic, after check-in my girls (8-9) wanted to go back to the room to change into something fancy, (This is not a hotel for kids they said to me..). Service is top notch

Just a few minutes north of South Beach, the Fontainebleau remains one of the best known historic luxury resorts of Miami. LIV nightclub calls the building home, and is a MUST for anyone visiting.

Fancy lobby, great bakery inside! Try the key lime pie that looks like a flipflop

Nice hotel, super big and cozy rooms - very good option in south beach.

I love the iMacs in the room! The macaroons are sooo good, especially the pink & ten ones.

Stayed during July when it's Miami Spa month. You ever want to feel like you have "Baller Status" stay here. Be prepared to pay baller money though. Loved it!

Fun hotel. If you ask for an upgrade they may give it to you. We ask and we got one.

Fancy place to stay right by the beach at Miami. Bar gets crowded on a Friday night, with a good party crowd. Feels like W Hotel !

Sit at the bar & enjoy the view of the muscular & flirtatious bartenders!

Very decent hotel but everything is ridiculously pricy including the 10 dollars bottle water inside your room

Wasn’t impressed as was expecting an upmarket hotel but it was overcrowded and noisy, with expensive but average food. Luckily it was a corporate junky but still fell below expectations.

Was featured heavily in Goldfinger's opening shots, but more importantly, it was the setting of what may be the most famous scene in 007 canon: Bond girl Jill Masterton's "death by gold." Read more
