About this hotel
General information
The Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, Miami lies beside a private beach on Key Biscayne, a five-mile barrier island a few minutes from downtown Miami and South Beach. Its architecture takes its cue from the island’s nature, heritage and unhurried pace, and the newly designed rooms and suites with balconies, studios and residences with kitchens carry quiet references to the mangroves and shoreline.
The resort’s particular pride is the Cliff Drysdale Racquet Garden, with courts for tennis, padel and pickleball, clinics with resident coaches and private lessons. Around it are adult and family pools, a 24-hour fitness centre, The Ritz-Carlton Spa, the Ritz Kids programme and seven restaurants and bars. Twenty-six event spaces total about 3,440 m², among them the 940 m² Ritz-Carlton Ballroom and the Grand Lawn for gatherings outdoors; weddings are arranged.

Spa
The Ritz-Carlton Spa, Key Biscayne has treatment rooms and couples’ suites, a full-service salon, separate women’s and men’s lounges with steam room and sauna, a whirlpool, the Journey Lounge, the Spa Sensory Garden and the Spa Sanctuaries.
