AWESOME hotel !!!!
The Fountainebleau used to be part of the Hilton Hotel change since it was built in the late 1940's but in the 2004 it lost the Hilton name and the hotel went into dispear .... then some investors from the UAE decided to buy it and pump $1 BILLION dollars in renovations ... that's right $1 BILLION dollars and the end product is stunning !!!! It has again gained it place of one the best hotels not only in Miami but in the World. Rooms start at $300 a night and run into the $1,000 for suite ... the hotel has some of the best restaurants in the country in the lobby, LIV nightclub is one of the hottest places in all of South Beach ... and as for the pool area ... well what can you say amazing !!!! A perfect 10 out of 10 !!! can't go wrong with this place !!!!

fontainebleau resort
located in the heart of miami beach the fontainebleau hilton is a 37 story beach front hotel. the upper rooms offer spectacular views of miami and miami beach. the fontainbleau offers all of the amenities of a first class hotel. located in an area that is safe for tourists.
It has been 10 years since I stayed here. But I thought it was worth putting on my tips. This hotel is a landmark. Since my stay they have fully renovated. When I do go to Miami area I try to swing by here if only for a cocktail.
Unique Quality: The Fountainebleau is famous for its style, its see and be seen atmosphere as well as the "Grotto" and the Cabaret "Ronde." The Grotto is a series of pools and waterfalls. A wonderfully unique place to unwind. The Round Caberet has had so many fantastic artists over the years, it is a landmark unto itself. The Rat Pack were regulars here.

Hotel in Miami Beach
South Florida's most renowned landmark hotel, the Fontainebleau Hilton is situated on 20 lush tropical acres on the ocean in Miami Beach and is now home to ''Cookie's World'', our own interactive children's water playland ....The resort continues to reflect the gracious ambiance and prestige that has made it famous since its opening in 1954.
Unique Quality: Where the Beach Began ...
The Fontainebleau Hilton Resort has been the crown jewel of Miami Beach since its inception in 1954. Long before the trendy street cafes and nightlife scene erupted on South Beach, the famed Fontainebleau was the home to movie stars, politicians, major celebrities and more. Rich in history, and visited by every American president since Eisenhower, this legendary hotel has graced the Miami Beach landscape for nearly 50 years. Miami Beach and the Fontainebleau Hilton Resort continue to remain virtually synonymous, it's nearly impossible to imagine one without the other. All it takes is one visit to understand why.
Begin with a magnificent setting that encompasses a half-acre lagoon-style rock grotto pool with cascading waterfalls surrounded by lush tropical greenery. Poolside cabanas overlook ''Cookie's World'' and the sparkling Atlantic Ocean just beyond the naturally beautiful beach.
The resort's interior is just as stunning. The hotel offers the leisure and business traveler both comfort and luxury in handsomely appointed spacious rooms, some with sweeping terraces. A majority of the rooms have breathtaking water views. Atop the legendary Chateau Building is the ''Executive Floor'', an exclusive hotel-within-a-hotel. Guests here are pampered by the elegance of lavishly decorated rooms, personalized concierge services, upgraded amenities and access to a private lounge.
Restaurants and lounges offer an array of dining choices, including the innovative ''Bleau View'' restaurant featuring fine Mediterranean and classic cuisine and an award-winning Sunday Brunch. The Fontainebleau Hilton Resort offers guests a stress-relieving experience and invigorating workout at its fitness center, complete with state-of-the-art equipment. And, when business brings guests to Miami, they are assured of quality services offered at the resort's complete business center and first-class meeting and conference facilities.

Miami's best hotel.
Glitzy, historic, impressive, comfy. Memories of classic James Bond and rat pack history from the 50´s makes this place something special. I've stayed here as a traveller and I've also organised a conference here. The facilities are great and it makes you feel good, even though it is expensive. Highly recommended if you can afford it. Be aware, it's not the newest hotel, so there is a feel of grandeur possibly past it's prime, but hey, if you appreciate the history then you'll love it.
Fountainebleau was fine, don't know what all the fuss is about
by TripAdvisor Member kaudrey
I just spent 4 days at the Fountainebleau with 2 friends (a girl's getaway weekend), and we really enjoyed it. We were in the "old" part, and it was fine. Big bathroom, big room, great ocean view. Extra towels when we asked for them. They are doing some construction by the pool, so beyond one side of the pool area it was a little noisy, but we just stayed on the other side or laid out on the beach. We never had a problem getting towels or chairs, even on the weekend when the pool was, admittedly, quite crowded. We just spent more time at the beach Saturday (which I prefer anyway). They charge for chairs on the beach, which is a little annoying, so we just grabbed extra towels and laid on those. No big deal. The pool is big and very nice, with waterfalls and nice landscaping. Waitstaff was very nice and came around the pool and at the beach. Drinks were expensive, but they were expensive everywhere in Miami and South Beach. We would stay there again.
Fontainebleau Great
by A TripAdvisor Member
I recently stayed for a weekend at the Fontainebleau on the penthouse floor. The staff was very friendly and the location was ideal. We wondered though why so many people stayed on the property's pools when the beach was a few steps from the hotel. I had a great view of the ocean and beach from my balcony. The bed was fairly comfortable compared to my bed at home, a tempurpedic. I would definitely go back.
