Description:
If you can do without the noise in the heart of South Beach, this trendy hotel along the causeway between downtown and Miami Beach is the ticket. A creation of hotelier Andre Balázs, this boutique property retains some vestiges of its mid-20th century past—white-marble walls, terrazzo floors and stainless-steel elevators—but today it's all about clean lines, supreme comfort and a modern sense of style. Rooms are creatively named, bearing labels ranging from the risqué "Missionary," given to the straightforward smallish basic rooms to the descriptive "Wet," "Dry," and "Lush," respectively referring to rooms with views of the Intracoastal Waterway, courtyard and gardens. The hotel's spa has outdoor tubs, waterfall shower heads, a cedar sauna and pools with underwater music. Plus, guests can count on luxuries to please tech-savvy types: free Wi-Fi, iPod docks, flat-screen TVs, DVD players and cordless phones.

Just off the SoBe strip, and a million miles away from reality.

Place is really something. From the retro decor, the staff, the pool, the often topless bathers (my fiancé included), the food, the booze, the rooms, and that glorious spa. How we already...
