South Florida is home to idyllic stretches of sand, lots of fun, and an array of attractions to appease every traveler. In Miami, the good vibes are endless, and there's something new and fun to discover around every corner.

The Look of Acqualina Resort & Residences
Acqualina Resort & Residences looks — and feels — as if you're staying in an extravagant Mediterranean villa. Your vacation here starts with a journey through opulent iron gates that lead you to the immaculate porte-cochere, where Baroque-style fountains and beautiful archways lead you inside. All of this is capped off with the resort's signature pops of red, which can be found in the curtain linings and overhead awnings.
Each of the 98 guest rooms — which start at a spacious 740 square feet — is beautifully decorated with plush linens, contemporary furnishings, modern artwork, and gorgeous gray and silver accents. The in-room whirlpool tubs and private balconies are bonuses.
