Highs & Lows

  • The location of Esmé is amazing — in South Beach but far from the noise! Again, the location — close to absolutely everything from shopping to the best restaurants and the beach. No need for a car or Uber, you can walk or bike to all the spots

  • You can easily enjoy your stay in Esmé with its three restaurants and rooftop bar. Each with its concept, design, and menu

  • The service was wonderful. From the second I walked into Esmé to check out, everyone was very attentive and friendly

  • Room service was just okay

  • In-room snacks were MIA! Need those! Please

In the Area

Hotel Location Esmé Miami Beach, Washington Avenue, Miami Beach, FL, USA

Esmé is tucked away on Española Way which is a bit away from the real deal madness (thankfully!) of South Beach. Infinity Hospitality is the creator of Esmé and other lively restaurants and some shops too! Which marry historic revitalization with modern-day brand and experience. You’re also not too far from Lincoln Road and old-school classics like La Sandwicherie and A La Folie.
