Dear Imagine Lifestyles,
I am a fan of your website and blog. I have been following your stuff for almost a year, thanks for the information and entertainment. There is one issue that I have not seen covered in your blog, and that is Miami during the summer.
I have been told that it is too hot to take a trip to Miami in the summer, and was curious about your take on that advice. It would seem that the hotter the better with the Ocean and luxury hotel pools to soak in. I am overdue for a mini-vacation, and was contemplating a quick trip to Miami to rejuvenate. Let me know your thoughts on the matter.
Thanks,
Peter, New York

To experience The Ritz-Carlton is one thing, to experience it in Florida’s famed South Beach is entirely another! Chic sophistication blends with cool smooth comfort in this fabulous luxury South Florida hotel. Aside from the structure, amenities and entertainment, the service here tends to stand out.
The Ritz-Carlton of South Beach goes above and beyond what is expected to ensure that guests are attended to-including while they are enjoying the fabulous pool area. You see, at the Ritz in Sobe, there is a butler circulating the area who will spritz pool-goers with water, sun tan lotion, or sun block-whenever they wish. Does this seem shocking to you?
Not to the Ritz-Carlton. Nestled within Miami’s most luxurious community, South Beach, The Ritz strives to not only keep up with appearances and expectations, but to exceed them. With all of the glamorous shopping, international dining, heart-racing entertainment and other options available in the city, it is vital to leave a lasting impression that will entice guests to return year after year, and to tell their friends!
The Ritz features 72 poolside lanai rooms overlooking the expansive turquoise shoreline. These rooms boast unobstructed views of both the elevated pool overlooking the beach, and the glittering shoreline itself. During the weekends, guests enjoy a poolside DJ at the fabulous beach club. Other amenities include a 13,000 square foot spa and wellness center, 3 restaurants and bars, watersport rentals, a salon, 24-hour room service, babysitting, laundry service and an impressive Sunday champagne brunch. And of course, there is
always the concierge for any other request that may arise.
The Ritz is located at 1 Lincoln Road, just minutes from Collins Avenue, and all of the stunning boutiques. According to Frommers, (who some would agree is quite a savvy world traveler) the hotel is far from ostentatious, with impeccable service standards and surprises. For more information on this and other luxury accommodations and luxury car rentals in the area, visit Imagine Lifestyles today, we are just down the street from the Ritz-Carlton.
