"Located along the white sand shores of North Beach, (about fifteen minutes north of South Beach ) this resort is all about the "luxury of wellness," with a phenomenal spa, enviable roster of recreational classes and an array of integrative health resources (it helps that it originally opened as a Canyon Ranch and Spa). Hotel guests vary from families looking to while away their stay on the hotel’s 750 linear feet of pristine beach, to groups of friends looking for a less-hedonistic vibe than what can be found at neighboring resorts in Miami Beach, to fitness aficionados delighted by the two-story state-of-the-art gym, four pools and access to the beach’s miles-long paved walking and running paths. New age-y health types will revel in the resort’s array of nutritionists, acupuncturists, physical therapists and energy healers that regularly host workshops and retreats on property." - Sara Liss, Jennifer M.
