Fodor's Review:

There is probably no other place in Miami where slowness is lifted to a fine art. On Key Biscayne there are no pressures, there's no nightlife, and the dining choices are essentially limited to the hotel (which has five dining options, including the languorous, Havana-style RUMBAR). In this kind of setting, you'll appreciate the Ritz brand of pampering. Need something to do? The "tequilier" at the seaside Cantina Beach will educate you on the finer points of his native region's drink. Hitting the spa? In one of 21 treatment rooms, try the 42 Movement Minerale Massage. An 11-court tennis "garden" with a tennis butler, a private beach, and beachside water sports are other options. In-room luxuries like robes, slippers, fine linens and toiletries, and scales are of course expected. The club level offers five food presentations a day, and the Ritz Kids club has full- and half-day and Saturday-night programs. Borrow bikes here to explore Billy Baggs park and its lighthouse. Pros: top tennis facility; private beach; fine dining; good family retreat. Cons: beach is gray sand; you have to drive to Miami for nightlife.
