The Hotel Collection
Delano Miami Beach
South Beach, Miami Beach
The South Beach landmark has reopened under the Delano name, with new rooms, poolside bungalows and restaurants — a fresh chapter, not the hotel people remember.

Character
A legend, rebuilt
Delano was the hotel that defined 1990s South Beach: white curtains, the long lobby walk to the pool, Philippe Starck's surreal furniture. It closed for an extended period, and the current official site presents a reopened, reimagined hotel. We describe that new hotel only, not memories or reviews of the old one.
Expect a social, design-driven place for couples and friends who want to be in the middle of South Beach. Staying at the hotel is not the same as membership of the associated Members Club; club access is separate and confirmed individually.
Dining and evenings
Four new settings
- Gigi Rigolatto Riviera-inspired Mediterranean dining.
- Mimi Kakushi Japanese, with roots in the Dubai original.
- Rose Bar the evening bar.
- Café Delano for daytime coffee and lighter meals.
Hours and bookings confirmed for your dates; tables requested, not guaranteed.
Pools and beach
Two pools and bungalows
There are two pools, with poolside bungalows opening onto the garden. Beach service and cabana terms are confirmed with the hotel.
Wellness
The Source — fitness first
The Source is the fitness and gym offering. Spa rituals are described as forthcoming; this is not yet a full spa, so do not plan a treatment-led stay around it until the hotel confirms availability.
Location and planning
Heart of South Beach
At 17th Street, steps from Lincoln Road and the Art Deco District. Recently reopened hotels can adjust services; Noemie re-confirms outlets and inclusions close to arrival.
Choosing well
Booking a newly reopened hotel
Early in a reopening, services settle and schedules change. Noemie re-confirms outlets, pool terms and any spa developments close to your arrival, and will be candid if something you want is not yet running. Choose a poolside bungalow if stepping straight outside matters.
The Delano's address is its other great asset. Lincoln Road's pedestrian mall is a block away, the Bass Museum and Collins Park are a short walk north, and the Art Deco District's pastel facades start just south. That makes the hotel a natural fit for couples who want to walk to dinner and back, and for design-minded travelers interested in how a landmark has been reinterpreted. Families may prefer a resort with a children's program and a full spa; groups wanting a large self-contained scene might compare Fontainebleau. If you remember the old Delano, come with fresh eyes: the name returns, but the rooms, restaurants and team are new.

Planning with Noemie
What Noemie handles
Noemie Marcoux helps choose your room, check available rates and explore applicable Fora benefits. Benefits depend on property, rate, dates and availability—not guaranteed upgrades, breakfast or credits. She can coordinate dining requests and your Miami itinerary, with cars, transfers and yacht experiences through Privately Known's suppliers quoted separately.
Concierge support applies to qualifying hotel or home bookings made directly through Noemie via Fora, within an agreed scope. Membership or car rental alone does not qualify. Ordinary booking support remains available for the booking purchased.
