Sanibel Harbour Resort and Spa

Stucco walls, spacious rooms, and a spectacular recreational area, featuring waterfalls and a private beach.
Sea Lord, Lauderdale-bythe-Sea

This small, charming resort is smack bang on the beach, but it is also close to shops and restaurants. The 48 rooms have been recently renovated and there is a choice of rooms or suites, most of which have a kitchen.
Setai Hotel

Best hotel in Town
Shelborne Resort, South Beach

Directly on the Atlantic in the heart of South Beach, this Art Deco high-rise hotel is newly restored and once again quite elegant, its surprising affordability notwithstanding. The best feature is the stylish pool.
Sheraton Bal Harbour Resort

It’s a 10-acre (4-ha) tropical garden with a “mystic” rope bridge suspended over a lagoon and close proximity to Bal Harbour. These and other features have drawn the likes of the Clintons and Bill Gates to choose this high-end paradise when they are in Miami.
Sonesta Resort, Key Biscayne

Like a giant Mayan temple facing on the Atlantic, this sparkling white highrise is just what families are looking for: a perfect private beach, Olympicsize pool, chikee (Native-American) “village,” whirlpool baths, and a host of programs for kids and adults.
Southwind Motel, Key West

An old-fashioned, unpretentious motel. There’s a large freshwater pool and sundeck, set in a tropical garden. Some rooms have kitchenettes, and all guests have off-street parking.
The Breakers (Palm Beach)

A Palm Beach landmark of the Gilded-Age tradition, whose décor beautifully evokes the Spanish Revival taste that Flagler brought to Florida in the 1890s. Modern comforts are epitomized by the spa annex.
The Fisher Island Club

The billionaires who favor this very private island getaway love the extreme exclusivity that its remoteness provides. Personal golf-carts, quiet as a whisper, let you toodle around the many beaches, restaurants, clubs, etc.
The Flamingo, Fort Lauderdale

A thoroughly pleasant place for gay men only, just two blocks from the beach. The interior exudes an understated colonial charm, with soothing fountains, manicured gardens, a clothingoptional pool, four-poster beds, and white-on-white bedding.
