Barbizon Suites by Sand Castles - Ocean Drive
Directly on Ocean Drive, in the heart of world famed South Beach Miami, enjoy the luxury of having the hottest places for dancing, dining, and shopping right at your front steps! This recently restored South Beach property, the Barbizon Suites South Beach, is the place to stay if you`re fun in the sun of South Beach or the exuberant Miami nightlife.
HISTORIC RESTORATION
The ``New`` Barbizon by Sandcastles in South Beach Miami, is a prime Ocean Drive hotel that has been fully restored in early 2010. As you stroll into the lobby be sure absorb the warm tones of the lobby accented by the vibrant abstract art work by one of South Beach`s premier artists, Romero Britto. Enjoy unobstructed views from the oceanfront patio. Gaze into breathtaking scenes of the famous Florida sunlight glistening off beautiful the blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean as it kisses the pristine beaches of Miami. After returning from an amazing night on the town, be sure to head back up to the patio where you can watch the ballet of the ocean waves under the moon beam spot lights.
SUITE SLUMBER
Stroll through the lobby, accented with the original works of Romero Britto, and up to your home away from home out of the sumptuous sun rays and sands of Miami Beach. The delicate pastel colors and earth tones extend from the sleeping area and into an updated kitchenette to provide the relaxing feel of home. Enjoy the playful splash of vibrant colors carried from the lobby below as you watch your favorite shows from an inviting sofa or the plush cozy bed tucked in with soft bedding and cushy pillows. Everything you will need for your Miami vacation is here for you, from the full size updated appliances down to the simple details of silverware. Make your morning coffee and breakfast-in-bed before heading out for the day, and if you choose to stay in for the night, have fun with it and attempt to recreate one of the succulent concoctions that flirted with your taste buds the night before. No matter what you choose to do, you`re right where you need to be with the Barbizon by Sandcastles.
ART DECO DISTRICT
With over 100 side walk cafes from 5th to 15th Street, your biggest dilemma while on your South Beach Vacation will be trying to decide what and where to eat. Don`t forget your morning coffee, and we`re not talking just ANY coffee! You’re a block away from one of South Beach’s oldest and most recognized Cuban Cafe’s – Puerto Saua, so stop in for some of the richest Cuban coffee you will ever experience. Spend your day shopping in high fashion boutique shops or drench yourself in the Florida sun and get that golden glow to show off later during your night out on the city! Start the evening off with one of the most famous restaurants in the World, Joe`s Stone Crab which is 5 blocks south and put on a bib and enjoy a plate of giant cold claws! Work your way back and experience the exhilarating SoBe Nightlife by starting off with at least one of five different flavored Mojito`s (area specialty in Miami Beach)!!! Hit up some of the sexiest hotspots and dance clubs and let loose on the dance floor. Keep your eyes open and see everything you can.
