If you're looking for luxury beachfront accommodations that feel worlds away from the city's hustle and bustle, consider a stay at Acqualina Resort & Residences, located in nearby Sunny Isles Beach.
What You Need to Know
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 800 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.
The Vibe at Acqualina Resort & Residences
A luxury beach vacation with a splash of Mediterranean romance is what you'll get at Acqualina Resort & Residences. The property is known for its signature Mediterranean decor, ample outdoor space (including three pools!), and, of course, the beautiful beach.
When it's time to sit back, relax, and treat yourself to some pampering, head straight to the 20,000-square-foot Acqualina Spa. After, enjoy an extravagant dinner at one of three on-site restaurants, including Avra, Ke-uH, or Il Mulino, both of which offer outdoor seating. Guests can also splurge on a private beachfront dinner or gourmet picnic.

Both young families and couples in search of a romantic getaway will love the resort. Small children can visit the AcquaMarine kids' center, which offers themed activities for little ones ages four to 12. Meanwhile, grown-ups can head to the spa for a rejuvenating couples' treatment before indulging in an intimate dinner.
