Hotel Victor South Beach

Hotel Victor South Beach is an Art Deco property on Ocean Drive, steps from the sand in the heart of South Beach's most iconic strip. The nearly 80-year-old building blends original architectural character with updated rooms and suites, including penthouses with rooftop terraces and ocean views.

Guests have access to an oceanfront pool deck, bicycles and beach chairs to borrow, and K'Alma Spa, a Peruvian crystal color therapy spa with a hammam, sauna, meditation room, and treatment rooms. Dining options include Gianni's in the former Versace Mansion, Cafe Americano for Latin-inflected comfort food, and Mercato Di Mare for Italian seafood.

The lobby has drawn attention for its art and furniture, and the hotel's location puts Ocean Drive's restaurants, nightlife, and the beach within easy walking distance. Valet parking and a 24-hour front desk round out the basics.

The hotel suits visitors who want to be in the middle of South Beach's energy while still having a pool deck and spa to retreat to.
