The Best Hotels for Pools and Beach Clubs in Miami

These are the spots where sun, style, and sophistication meet

In a city where the sun shines nearly year-round and the Atlantic stretches endlessly, Miami Beach’s allure is its proximity to both the water and the scene. Hotel pools are no mere afterthought—they are central to the culture, offering a blend of luxury, relaxation, and socialization that defines the South Florida experience. Beach clubs, meanwhile, are more than just a spot to sip cocktails; they’re destinations in their own right, offering curated experiences that mix music, art, and culinary delights. Miami's top hotels know this better than anyone, providing a seamless mix of poolside indulgence and beachfront leisure.

From South Beach to Mid-Beach, the city is home to some of the most iconic pools and beach clubs in the world. Whether you’re looking for a low-key vibe or a vibrant party scene, these hotels deliver a mix of it all—luxury amenities, stunning views, and unforgettable experiences that make them stand out.
