After a complete renovation, this 426-room, eco-conscious hotel opened in March 2015. Salvaged wood, organic sheets, energy-efficient elevators, and Tesla car service are a few of the environment-friendly touches, while outstanding amenities include direct beach access; four pools (one being of the rooftop variety); and a Tom Colicchio-helmed restaurant. It's all about the zen here, so travelers looking for a bigger party vibe should check out the nearby Delano or Thompson Miami Beach.
