Miami/South Beach- where to stay

Anonymous
So my husband and I doing a 5 day get away in Miami (could be beach, could be proper). We have stayed at the Mondrion a few times but they kinda treat everyone like they are lucky to be there if that makes sense. I'm in my 40s, don't check my bag when I go to the pool.

Anyone- I don't want to spend the money to stay at 1Hotel (1200+ a night), but I am looking for a vibey pool with a good bard and a nice room with a balcony. We were looking at the Standard, but everyone complains about the rooms. Any ideas?

I'm confused what your budget is. The Mondrian is a lot less expensive than 1Hotel or the Standard.

Mondrian now is 500 a night and 1 hotel is 1200. I’d like to spend less than $800 a night.

Loews or Ritz? They're close to one another, better location.

1 Hotel is the best. We recently stayed at the Ritz. The pool is nice (although not nearly as big as the 1 Hotel) and the pool service was good. To me location matters, and I much prefer South Beach over other areas of Miami.

stay for fewer nights at a nicer place.

We recently had a nice stay at the Fontainebleau - not sure how that compares to your price range. They did check our bags going to the pool, but just for glass...

I stayed at Fontainebleau a number of years ago, maybe they've changed, but I found they treated everyone like underaged teens. And we were all in our late 30s, it was a little maddening. Checking bags, checking hotel keys, counting towels, it felt very restrictive.

We had a great stay at The Edition. Uses to love the W but it’s been a few years. Both had great rooms, fun pool and bar.
