Do you like to be where the action is? If so, Loews at Miami Beach is the perfect hotel for you. The towering facade of this Art Deco behemoth conceals 800 luxurious rooms – you definitely won’t be spending your time in solitude. You’ll also be just steps away from the ocean. The curvy pool, with its palm-tree detail sculpted into the bottom, is a great place to relax and sip a drink (served by butlers, naturally). Read a book or just close your eyes and feel the warmth of the Florida sun soak into your skin. The whimsical details of the guest rooms – asymmetrical headboards, curvy lamp stands, pale Deco blues and yellows – keep you in a SoBe frame of mind. At some point, you’ll notice the time and that it’s been several hours since your last meal. That’s when you head to Emeril’s for a New-Orleans inspired taste explosion. A nightly tasting menu and fresh seafood await you. For a unique dinner, try one of these signature dishes – New Orleans barbecue shrimp with a petite rosemary biscuit, or the double-cut pork chop with tamarind glaze for those who like something slightly more traditional. All diets are off when the banana cream pie with banana crust, caramel sauce, and chocolate shavings makes its way to your table.
