Mandarin Oriental, Miami unveils Dynamic Beach Club

Mandarin Oriental, Miami, has introduced a new dimension to its world-class service and facilities: a 20,000-square-foot private white sand beach overlooking glittering Biscayne Bay.

Florida travellers can now enjoy a cool and relaxing stay at the only beach resort in Miami's prestigious Brickell vicinity. The private beach at this luxurious waterfront hotel is situated adjacent to the infinity edge-swimming pool and award-winning spa.

"We are delighted to provide a new haven of relaxation and respite for our guests with exclusive complimentary access to our new beach facilities," said Jorge Gonzalez, general manager.

In keeping with Mandarin Oriental's Asian roots, the beach is adorned with authentic oriental-style furnishings - exotic beds with white cushions and canopies with rich Thai materials and fabrics. Lush palm trees and exotic plants surround the beach creating a tropical paradise. Beach butlers pamper guests as they provide cool towels and mist services. A selection of healthy spa cuisine, frozen fruit delicacies and refreshing tropical drinks are served all day.

A perfect venue for corporate events, retreats, social gatherings and themed-parties, the private beach provides picturesque views of Biscayne Bay and can accommodate catered events for up to 500 people.
