If you\u2019re looking for the best hotels in the country, don\u2019t bother booking a flight because there\u2019s one right here in Miami Beach! Each year, Tripadvisor announces reviewers\u2019 favorite destinations, hotels, restaurants and activities as part of its Travelers\u2019 Choice Best of the Best. Known as the platform\u2019s highest honor, it is awarded to the top 1% of listings worldwide, with one local establishment among this year\u2019s list of hotels.<\/p>\n

Coming in at No. 10 in the U.S., Faena Miami Beach is a multi-award-winning retreat set against brilliant white sands and turquoise waters. It\u2019s no surprise that users have rated this property highly, scoring 4.8 with over 3,300 reviews!<\/p>\n

Founded by creative visionary Alan Faena along with Len Blavatnik, the property transports guests into a fantastical world with some of the city\u2019s most sought-out dinner reservations, live entertainment, art installations (like Damien Hirst\u2019s \u2018Gone But Not Forgotten\u2019 golden mammoth), dedicated healing and spa spaces, retail and its own Faena Theater.<\/p>\n

Tripadvisor writes:<\/p>\n

\u201cFaena Miami Beach\u2019s location (right near the beach) is certainly a draw\u2014but there\u2019s so much more than that. There\u2019s a yoga room, spa, and a fitness center, plus an outstanding restaurant, Los Fuegos. From check in (complete with a complimentary glass of champagne) to check out, the attentive service and thoughtful amenities will make your stay truly special.\u201d<\/p>\n

Florida boutique hotels beyond the top 10<\/p>\n

But while Faena grabbed the national attention, Tripadvisor\u2019s list highlights two other Florida properties that cater to distinctly different types of travelers (or locals looking for the perfect staycation).<\/p>\n

Following the Miami Beach escape at No. 12 is Lauderdale-by-the-Sea\u2019s charming Beachside Village Resort. This laid-back, coastal boutique resort is lauded for its relaxing atmosphere, ample amenities and hospitality offerings.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ll appreciate the unique, beautifully decorated rooms with a beachy theme and the convenient location that makes exploring a breeze, the platform writes. \u201cWhen hunger strikes, delight in the array of dining options, and don\u2019t forget to make use of the excellent customer service to enhance your experience!\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, at No. 14, the Kimpton Hotel Palomar in Sunset Harbour offers a nautical stay for those who want to be close to the action without sleeping in the middle of it. Tripadvisor highlights its rooftop pool deck, rooms stocked with yoga mats and mini bars, complimentary coffee, free wine at happy hour and room key perks throughout the neighborhood.<\/p>\n
