Mandarin Oriental, Miami
Address: 500 Brickell Key Drive, Miami

The allure: If views of downtown Miami from Brickell Key aren’t enough to lure customers to the Mandarin, the resort has plenty more to keep travelers entertained.

Award-winning chef Gaston Acurio puts a modern spin on Peruvian cuisine at La Mar. MO Bar & Lounge features cocktails, sushi, and live entertainment on the weekend. Sun worshippers congregate at the infinity-edge pool area, and fitness buffs make use of the 1.3-mile jogging trail.

Isn’t that special: The resort’s One More Night special provides a complementary third evening for customers who book three consecutive nights. There also are Florida resident and Staycation by M.O. packages being offered.
