About this hotel
General information
The Ritz-Carlton Bal Harbour, Miami is an intimate coastal resort at the northern tip of Miami Beach, on a rare site where the Atlantic meets the Intracoastal Waterway, a short stroll from the fashion boutiques of Bal Harbour. It previously traded as ONE Bal Harbour Resort & Spa and keeps a private, almost residential feel, with just two rooms on each floor.
Rooms and suites with floor-to-ceiling windows and terraces face the ocean. Dining brings together three concepts led by a chef-driven signature restaurant, alongside a private Members Club, and The Ritz-Carlton Spa pairs treatments with wellness and fitness programmes. Guests settle into cabanas by the pool or on the semi-private beach, children have Ritz Kids, and art lovers receive the Unscripted Bal Harbour pass to Miami’s leading museums and private collections. Weddings and meetings are arranged, and dogs are warmly welcomed.
