Another summer has landed at The Surf Club, an oceanfront hideaway synonymous with good times, and with it, a new season of European-inspired summer traditions. From the cabana life by day to evenings at the Champagne Bar, a stay at Four Seasons Hotel and Residences at The Surf Club is everything summer should be.

Days at The Surf Club

After a morning dip in one of The Surf Club’s glistening pools, step into The Spa for a blissful morning. The Sweet Serenity treatment is a recommended choice, including a soothing exfoliation made of local honey and organic cane sugar followed by relaxing massage with aroma blends of sweet orange known to the region. For an active morning, the new BodySlimmer and Roll Slimmer features Italian technology at the fitness centre.

A place to call home for the day, lounge along The Surf Club cabanas and spend hours next to the pool and playing fun boardgames from backgammon to chess or cornhole on the lawn. For a refreshing afternoon treat, guests should visit Winston’s On The Beach, The Surf Club’s casual dining spot for a summer cocktail such as the Sandia Fresca, or the poolside Gelato Cart for a fresh scoop or two of true Italian ice-cream.

Just beyond the dreamy landscape of coconut palms and sea grape trees are acres of sandy white beach and the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Let the Beach team suggest the season’s most popular dishes such as the Peruvian ceviche, or as the sun begins to set, enjoy a picture-perfect beach picnic including Chef’s selection of canapes, summer fruits, and a bottle of champagne.

For a unique shopping experience, The Surf Club Shop now offers Alexandra Llewellyn's artfully crafted backgammon and humidors at the Hotel shop. Alexandra's hand painted, bespoke collection for The Surf Club perfectly captures the essence of this legendary Miami destination in a series of mesmerizing and characterful objets d'art that will be enjoyed for generations to come.

Evenings at The Surf Club

As the days are spent enjoying all that the pools and beach have to offer, evenings are for memorable dining experiences.

Just in time for summer, Lido Restaurant at The Surf Club has welcomed Florentine Marco Calenzo as the new Executive Chef, continuing The Surf Club’s rich culinary heritage. Not to be missed are his vitello tonnato and pacchero alla Lido. Also new at Lido this season is the Amedeo Raw Bar, a concept inside Lido Restaurant with a beautiful yellow glazed bar displaying an exceptional selection of crudos and an impressive list of champagne by the glass.

For a more casual and al fresco dining experience, the Champagne Bar has introduced Pizza Evenings at the Champagne Bar. Crafted by The Surf Club’s in-house pizzaiolo, savour true Neapolitan antipasti such as arancini al ragu, prosciutto e melone and unique pizzas like the Luciana and Golosona, which can be paired to perfection with a cocktail from Champagne Bar’s recently launched Miami Timeline Cocktail Collection embracing the rich history of the Magic City throughout the years.
