Fontainebleau Miami Beach

Aquatic offerings at this swanky hotel include three separate pool areas, with each accommodation appealing to a specific crowd. The Bowtie & Oasis pools pay homage to Morris Lapidus, an early ’60s architect, with an emulation of his iconic bow tie design as well as napworthy lounge chairs, cabanas to cool off in, and cocktail and snack menus perfect for a quick bite. For nightlife lovers, the adults-only playground at Arkadia Day Club is a classic Miami pool party experience complete with DJ-spun tunes, themed events and luxurious VIP poolside cabanas with personal butler service. Last, but certainly not least, the family pools are designed with younger guests in mind, sporting several shallow pools for the kids to splash around. 4441 Collins Ave., Miami Beach, @fontainebleau
