Fountain Blue Hotel Florida

The Fontainebleau is just as grand as I ended up being expecting. Nevertheless when we moved to the recently renovated lobby - this huge space centers on a sunken bar with a shining blue floor overlooking meticulously landscaped reasons - it didn't precisely scream household friendly.

This spot is attractive in a large method, and has now a lengthy reputation for hosting actors, dignitaries and presidents (former President Clinton was also a guest during our stay). Film buffs might also recognize it from the James Bond movie "Goldfinger." After a nearly one-billion-dollar remodelling, Fontainebleau features retained its appeal to Miami's trendy crowd, but hiding below its attractive facade is a hotel that continues to be because family-friendly as it's hip.

Over time it was home to Southern Florida's first ice-skating rink and various waterslides; and while today's Fontainebleau could very well be more understatedly kid-friendly (the major waterslides were replaced with one little one, and an interactive waterscape), people tend to be definitely welcomed right here.

However, cannot expect the concierge to greet your kids within home with a hug and a teddy bear. It's Miami Seashore.

What is attractive about any of it location for people are your options you will find right here. The kids may have no shortage of alternatives for food, activity and activities. With more than 1, 500 rooms, 11 restaurants and lounges, 10 pools, 22 oceanfront acres, and a kids' program, I dare them to get bored. It is worth pointing away that despite its Collins Avenue address, the Fontainebleau is approximately two miles (a 10-minute cab trip) into genuine activity in South Beach.

Spaces

Fontainebleau is huge, and there's no shortage of hotels to pick from. You will find 1, 504 guestrooms, with anything from fundamental areas (even they are magnificent, though instead small) to presidential suites. All standard spaces, many rooms are situated in the two original Fontainebleau structures, Chateau and Versailles, and through the recent renovation 658 brand-new rooms were included in two all-suite towers, Tresor and Sorrento.

All rooms include robes, 400-thread count Egyptian cotton, marble bathrooms, high-def flat-screen TVs, mini-bar, high-speed wireless Web access, iPod docking section and 20-inch iMac computer.

Junior rooms have actually a substantial amount of additional area (standard spaces tend to be about 300 square feet, and junior suites range between 500 to 860) with a sitting location and further full-size sleeper couch; it really is worth the excess money to upgrade from a standard space for families.

One-bedroom rooms have actually a different living area and bedrooms, oversized bathrooms with an independent tub and shower, full-sized home and a full-sized washer and dryer. They differ in dimensions considering which building they have been in, and many have balconies with sea views.

For families just who need more area, two-bedroom suites are made by incorporating a one-bedroom collection with a junior package or visitor room and guestrooms up to three bedrooms can certainly be adjoined for even larger family gatherings.

Cribs are no-cost but you'll buy a rollaway.

We remained in a Sorrento one-bedroom oceanview collection. It had been big, at 1, 000 square feet, extremely just and elegantly decorated in natural shades, and immaculate. We'd a big home with a bar and feces, a breakfast table, huge bathroom with double basins and another bathtub and bath. Sadly the stylish floor to ceiling cup shower door leaked. There was a large exclusive balcony with a table and chairs. The sack ended up being a decent size and closet was enormous, a walk-in bigger than the only we have home! We heard rumblings that housekeeping wasn't the maximum, but we didn't have any issues with our room.
