Go Beyond the Beach and Discover Modern Miami

Known for its alluring beaches, Miami is a rising city on the water, with Four Seasons Hotel Miami towering over it all as the tallest building in Florida. The Hotel’s location in Brickell puts it at the forefront of the city’s transformation.  The area is now known as a bustling entertainment and culinary destination.  Emerging neighbourhoods, fashion-worthy shopping destinations and new attractions opening up each day, make Miami a destination to discover, or rediscover.  

Four Seasons Hotel Miami is within prime location to explore everything new.  As mentioned by Ocean Drive Magazine, “Brickell is now, unequivocally, the centre of Miami. It is the heart of the city’s financial, residential, and soon, commercial, universe…” Visitors will find all things necessary for their choice of recreation whether it’s visiting nearby parks, shopping, or indulging in the city’s top restaurants, such as the award-winning EDGE, Steak & Bar at Four Seasons Hotel Miami. The urban neighbourhood of Brickell is the ideal location for guests looking to work, live and play.

Shopping in Brickell

The highly anticipated Brickell City Centre (BCC) recently opened its doors, adding to the growing energy and pulse of Brickell.  The premier retail and entertainment complex offers the largest collection of design boutiques and luxury brands combined with an array of dining options all within an open air environment.  A luxury dine-in movie theatre will open soon, making it the first ever in the neighbourhood. The architecturally striking complex will surely be one of the many highlights and attractions for locals and tourists alike.

Design District and Wynwood

Within a short drive from the Hotel, fashion and art lovers alike can enjoy an afternoon or evening of discovery walking through the high-end shops of the Design District – Louis Vuitton, Cartier, Prada, etc. – or the art laden, and world famous, walls that make up the Wynwood Art district. This urban revival is also home to culinary artisans, with a number of craft breweries, local coffee shops and bakeries, and more.

Art Scene

The city’s art scene has excelled greatly over the years, and the concierge team at Four Seasons Hotel Miami can offer a full itinerary of suggestions and exclusive insider tips on “must see” galleries, attractions and museums neighbouring the Five-Diamond Hotel.  From the modern and contemporary art collection at the waterfront Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) to the exclusive galleries in the Design District and public art displays in Wynwood, there’s plenty for the art enthused.  

For a Four Seasons guest, the art experience begins at arrival with two monumental statues by Colombian-born Fernando Botero, Adam and Eve, seemingly guarding the building at its entrance.  The multi-million-dollar art collection continues throughout the Hotel’s public spaces, featuring works by local and Latin American artists, such as the famed Venezuelan artist Jesús Rafael Soto, whose pieces can also be found at the PAMM.

Outdoor Adventures

For adventure seekers, the active island of Key Biscayne is just a bridge away. Guests can explore nature’s surroundings at Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park with walking and bicycle trails winding through native vegetation.  The scenic and serene beach is perfect for an afternoon of relaxation, and the historic lighthouse is one of the top attractions on the island, as the oldest standing building in Miami-Dade County. Key Biscayne is also ideal for kayaking, paddle boarding, windsurfing and more. The Tennis Center at Crandon Park is home to the Miami Open Tennis Tournament, and Crandon Golf at Key Biscayne offers a championship 18-hole golf course.

Whether a visit to Miami requires a suit and tie, or a hat and sunglasses, Brickell is in the centre of it all. After an adventure-filled day, Four Seasons Hotel Miami is a retreat at the end of the day.
