s the sun dips below the
horizon and casts its golden
glow across South Beach,
few places embody the spirit of Miami Beach quite like Delano. For decades, the iconic white tower stood as the epicenter of the city’s social scene, a place where fashion luminaries, artists, entrepreneurs, celebrities, and international tastemakers gathered beneath soaring curtains, lingered over cocktails in the legendary Rose Bar, and challenged one another to late-night games around the hotel’s famed billiards table. It wasn’t simply a hotel; it was a cultural institution that helped define Miami’s transformation into one of the world’s most glamorous destinations.
This Summer, that story begins anew.
Following an extensive transformation, Delano Miami Beach reopened with a renewed vision that honors its celebrated heritage while introducing a new era of contemporary luxury. Guests will once again pass through the property’s dramatic interiors, where beloved elements of the original social experience, including the iconic Rose Bar and the lobby’s signature pool table, have been thoughtfully reimagined for today’s generation of global travelers and members.
The revival balances nostalgia with innovation. Throughout the property, refined materials, coastal textures, and light-filled spaces create an atmosphere that feels unmistakably Miami. Sunlight filters through expansive interiors, ocean breezes drift in from the Atlantic, and carefully curated design details connect guests to both the property’s storied past and its ambitious future.
