About Esmé Miami Beach

Esmé Miami Beach is a boutique hotel set within a collection of restored 1920s Spanish-Mediterranean buildings just off Espanola Way, once home to a colony of artists and outcasts. Spread across Esmé Village and the historic Casa Matanza, the property blends moody, artfully-detailed interiors with a laid-back, bohemian sensibility that feels distinct from the typical South Beach high-rise.

Rooms and suites range from cozy Classic Kings to the multi-room Matanza and Capone Suites, many featuring French balconies overlooking the plaza below. Guests can unwind poolside, sip cocktails at the on-site bar, or wander a few steps out to Española Way's restaurants and nightlife.

The hotel's design leans into its storied past, with rich textures and eclectic decor throughout the property. Centrally located in South Beach, Esmé puts the beach, Lincoln Road, and Ocean Drive all within easy walking distance.

It's a fitting home base for travelers who want boutique charm, historic character, and a quieter alternative to the area's larger resort hotels.

What People Love

Location: The Española Way address earns high marks; guests appreciate walkability to restaurants, nightlife, and the beach, with a walkability score of 100.

Know Before You Go

  • The hotel spans two buildings, Esmé Village and Casa Matanza across the street, so confirm your building preference when booking.
  • Rooms with balconies (Superior City View King with Balcony, Louise Suite) offer plaza views and are worth requesting for a more memorable stay.
  • The hotel is on Washington Ave, a short walk from the beach, not beachfront, so plan accordingly if beach proximity is a priority.
