What's Special About Mandarin Oriental Miami:
This Asian-inspired luxury hotel, only fifteen minutes from the Miami airport, impressed me with flawless service, fantastic food and even a very affordable off-season rate. No details are overlooked here, from the leather covering the staircase railings to the delicate incense burning in the lobby. The spa is an experience not to be missed.

Spa at Mandarin Oriental Miami:
Just off the pool deck, the fabulous spa is a study in relaxation, from the décor to the service. I almost didn't want to leave the lounge, where I was treated to herbal tea and healthy munchies while almost falling asleep listening to the waterfall. Treatment rooms overlook Biscayne Bay. Yoga and pilates are also offered.
