Hotel information
You really do get the real deal at Four Seasons Hotel, The Surf Club!
This luxury Miami hotel has a proud history of A-list guests and iconic location on Collins Avenue meet contemporary interior decor, a luscious spa and exclusive beach access. The Four Seasons Hotel Group continues its wonderful work of providing unique locations, extraordinary buildings and memorable moments here because the Surf Club has it all, and more.
Overlooking the ocean near Biscayne Bay, Bal Harbour and South Beach, location is key, and although you can easily access the various Miami Beach highlights from Four Seasons at The Surf Club, you also feel nicely removed from the bustle of Downtown. Then there’s the hotel’s history. This Four Seasons has been a go-to glamorous retreat for the great and the good, from Churchill to Elizabeth Taylor, racing drivers and film stars since the 1930s, a fact that gives everything about this luxury Miami hotel an endearing swagger.
Today, revamped and restyled onsite facilities reflect such an illustrious standing, with lovely seafront gardens home to private cabanas and daybeds, two heated swimming pools including one adults-only, two fine dining restaurant options and an enticing champagne lounge too.
This is not to mention the Four Seasons Spa, a heavenly South Beach retreat of holistic relaxation treatments, beauty salon therapies inspired by Paris and a luxe Hammam encased in marble, yoga and meditation classes and a well-equipped gym too. Guestrooms are also large, beautifully adorned and varied with a range of available extras, often facing the ocean which can be enjoyed from a private balcony or terrace.
Special mention must then go to the cuisine at Four Seasons, The Surf Club, as it’s utterly sublime and the service is attentive yet subtle, nothing less than this exceptional property deserves; just a taste of what to expect at this unmistakeable Surfside resort.
Room Options
There is a good range of accommodation choices when staying with Four Seasons at The Surf Club. In the guestroom category, the main differences between them are the views and floorplan. Each overlooks either the ocean, Biscayne Bay or Downtown Miami on the horizon, with 435sq ft available in the smaller rooms and 700sq ft in larger, with many boasting balconies too. Cabanas and suites then offer even more, with superior views, outdoor terraces and patios, fully-equipped kitchens, lounge areas and multiple bedrooms all available, perfect if travelling to Miami as a family. Throughout, expect a gleaming contemporary décor scheme of white, cream, pale greens, floor-to-ceiling windows, lots of light and a great feeling of space. The bathrooms are then marble-clad no matter which you choose and come with both a deep soak tub and separate rain shower, while even entry-level rooms feature comfy sofas or a chaise longue, king-size beds, minibar, designer toiletries, Wi-Fi, smart room controls and in-room entertainment systems plus a choice of both pillow and mattress options.
Surf Club Room
Sleeps: 2 Adults
Located on floors 5 to 12, the Surf Club Room does enjoy good views of the surrounding area, and although it’s the smallest option at 435sq ft you still benefit from all of the standard in-room extras, a king-size bed and choice of mattresses, a minibar and luxe bathroom.City View and Premier City View Room
Sleeps: 2 Adults , 1 Child
Looking out onto the street below, City View Rooms are a fine choice with their furnished balconies, walk-in rain shower and separate bathtub, 600sq ft floorplan for the standard option and 735sq ft if going for the Premier, plus a wraparound balcony in the latter. Each can also accommodate up to three people thanks to the option of a roll-up bed.Bay View Room
Sleeps: 2 Adults
Positioned in the property’s upper floors, the urban and coastal vistas of Four Seasons’ Bay View Rooms are superior, though all other design elements, their furnished balconies and bathrooms are similar to the City View option.Ocean Front and Premier Ocean Front Room
Sleeps: 2 Adults , 1 Child
At either 645 or 700sq ft depending on whether you choose the Ocean Front or Premier Ocean Front Room – the latter benefitting from a larger floorplan, corner position in the building and wraparound balcony – this is a superb option with views directly out to the Atlantic. A comfy seating area and luxe bathroom round things off nicely with all other mod-cons and in-room extras coming as standard too.Cabanas
Sleeps: 2 Adults , 1 Child

With the option of either one or two bedrooms, the Four Seasons Residential Suites really do stand out for their size and wealth of included amenities. Floorplans range from 780 to 2,000sq ft and house a fully-equipped kitchen, terrace and lounge area, fantastic ocean views and space for up to five people.Specialty Suites
The Penthouse and Four-Bedroom Suite at Four Seasons The Surf Club are special spaces to sta.y. The Four-Bedroom option can easily sleep up to 9 people and covers a plan of 4,300sq ft that includes a huge terrace, lounge and dining area, kitchen, four bathrooms and sea views throughout.

You can book a private cabana in the hotel’s oceanfront garden or on the beach itself, spend time around either of two outdoor swimming pools – including one adults-only – or make use of the complimentary bicycles available here.

Restaurants & Bars
La Sirenuse
If you’re a fan of Italian food, drop into La Sirenuse Restaurant while staying at the Four Seasons Surf Club, as it is considered one of the best fine dining Italian eateries in Miami. Here, authentic Italian dishes, traditional recipes and imported ingredients – including heirloom Pomodorino di Piennolo tomatoes grown on the slopes of Mount Vesuvius, for example – are crafted together in truly cutting-edge fashion. The aim is to emulate the gastronomic wonders of the Amalfi Coast, daily caught seafood, authentic Italian produce and real Mediterranean fine dining in far-flung Miami.

Winston’s on the Beach
About as appealing, cool and hip an outdoor dining space as you’re likely to find anywhere in Miami, Winston’s on the Beach serves up a menu worthy of refined restaurant status, so don’t be too fooled by the laidback ambience and fashionable beach furnishings. From ceviche to beetroot and watermelon salads, luxe Mexican tacos or authentic falafel, this is truly decadent daytime dining, with cocktails and mocktails that are not to be missed.
The Surf Club Restaurant
Michelin-star chef Thomas Keller is the inspiration behind each delicate dish at the Surf Club Restaurant, from black truffle fettuccine alfredo to Maine lobster thermidor, perhaps a prime steak mignon or Dover sole meuniere; in truth, the menu does change throughout the seasons, but Keller’s renowned standards certainly do not. Even the simplest of salads are prepared to perfection here, it’s a gastronomic delight worthy of the dining space in which you’ll be seated, adorned as it is with atmospheric wall murals and huge flower bouquets.
- Dinner
La Sirenuse Champagne Bar
La Sirenuse's Champagne Bar is equally as its restaurant: a lofty space filled with indoor palm trees and foliage, retro furnishings, marble floors, occasional live jazz and a classic cocktail list to match.
Activities & Entertainment
While staying in Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club, the main onsite entertainment comes courtesy of fantastic fine dining experiences, glamorous outdoor areas and, for little ones, a kids’ club, games and family-friendly activities, as well as time spent on the beach. There are then multiple golf courses nearby such as Normandy Shores, Greynold’s, Miami Beach and Bayshore Golf Clubs plus the Bass Museum of Modern Art and Botanical Gardens. Ocean Drive, the Port of Miami and all of the best surrounding restaurants, shops and bars can also easily be reached within a short taxi ride too.
