The Pool at W Miami

"Even better is Fifty Miami Ultra Lounge, the upscale rooftop lounge/restaurant right next to the pool on the 50th floor, not to mention a magnificently modern, full-service 28,000-square-foot spa with treatment rooms that overlook the bay"

"In addition to treatment rooms, there is a screening room outfitted with oversize Louis XIV–style sofas and a stunning coed water lounge filled with reflecting pools and Lucite armchairs"

"This layout can lead to confusing navigation: To access the fiftieth-floor pool area, which has jaw-dropping views of Biscayne Bay, you have to switch elevators on the fifteenth floor, where the enormous outdoor pool and the attractive Deco-style restaurant with its good pan-American menu are situated"

"Atop the hotel, Club 50 is an exclusive indoor-outdoor lounge with a private pool and spectacular view over Miami"

"The "ultimate in hip", this "very chic" hotel in a "prime" Brickell Area location near the "finest" restaurants caters to the "beautiful people" with "excellent" rooms featuring Sferra bedding, flat-screens and marble bathrooms; some acknowledge that the "genial" staffers are "very busy" yet grouse that service "could improve", but most "recommend" it for the facilities that include a "jaw-dropping" infinity pool and "great" spa, as well as for its "leading-edge" East Asian design"
