The Spa 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"

"So, if you're heading to Miami solely to rock your neon thong on Ocean Drive, the Viceroy won't interest you—but it's perfect for a spa weekend in the sun, away from the posturing of South Beach"

") The Biscayne Bay property (which shares a spa with the Philippe Starck–designed Icon Brickell condo building next door) heated up further when chef Michael Psilakis and restaurateur Donatella Arpaia, both of New York’s Anthos, moved into its 15th-floor restaurant"

"The complex is spread over three towers, with the hotel and most facilities in one, the stunning spa in another, and residences filling the third"

"Complemented by the architecture, the Viceroy stands at the center of the ten-acre Icon Brickell enclave, replete with skyscraping residential towers, two parks, a 28,000-square-foot spa, a fitness center and a two-acre outdoor living room"

"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"

"There are 10 treatment rooms and spa services range from the expected (the Paradise, a 60-minute Swedish massage) to the decadent (a 120-minute Masterpiece treatment that includes a body exfoliation, massage and facial)"

"The spa is equally jaw-dropping, with the lobby opening to a massive yellow Murano glass chandelier"
