Fodor's Expert Review Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club

Built in the 1930s as a members-only club called The Surf Club, this sophisticated 9-acre oceanfront property has always been a spot for people with good taste to have good times. The beautiful open spaces throughout its three buildings make visitors feel like they're on a posh Italian escape, and the slick white rooms with modern fixtures create instant relaxation upon arrival. There's a state-of-the-art spa and two gorgeous beachside pools with 40 cabanas offering absolute privacy. Its well-known gem The Champagne Bar features Miami's largest champagne selection (and a delicious menu of Italian selections), with bartenders in crisp white jackets ready to attend to your every whim. It's also home to Thomas Keller's only restaurant in the south, The Surf Club, serving only the highest caliber of dishes.
