Our take
By Matt Spaulding, Founder and writer
Design is the whole argument here, and it mostly wins. The EDITION is a preserved 1950s beach resort reworked into a design hotel, and reviewers keep circling the same things: the marble lobby, the Sundial Pool with its original retro diving board, the seasonal ice rink, pool and beach staff who actually come around, and the Matador Room, the Jean-Georges restaurant people book without staying here. They circle the same faults too. Rooms are the weak link, small and minimal enough that guests read them as unfinished, with shallow bathroom fixtures and showers that regulars rate below other EDITION properties. Then the money. Valet is the only parking at $65 a day, $80 overnight for an oversize car, a beach chair runs about $25 and an umbrella about $25 more, and neither the hotel nor Marriott publishes a resort fee amount, so get that number before you book. The part first-timers miss: mid-beach is quiet, which is the appeal, and it also means there is very little to walk to. Meals, drinks and evenings funnel back through the hotel's own paid outlets, or you are in a rideshare. Couples and small groups who want a self-contained design retreat, and who will happily eat and drink on site, get their money's worth. Families who need space, and anyone picturing a stroll into the South Beach strip, will be happier somewhere else.

Where you are
📍 2901 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach, FL 33140Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors
Open in Maps →Mid-beach, at 2901 Collins Avenue, north of the dense South Beach restaurant and bar strip. It's quiet and self-contained, which is exactly the appeal, and it also means a car or a rideshare for anything beyond the hotel's own restaurants and bars.

Does the Miami Beach EDITION charge a resort fee?
The amount isn't published. Neither editionhotels.com nor Marriott lists a resort or destination fee for this property, but reviewers describe a nightly fee on top of the rate, so get the figure confirmed before you book. Budget for the a la carte extras too: about $25 for an additional beach chair and about $25 for an umbrella.
How much is parking at the Miami Beach EDITION?
$65 a day, and valet is the only option. An oversize car costs $80 overnight. No self-parking rate is published anywhere, and there's no separate short-stay or day-guest rate either, so the daily valet fee is the number to plan around.
How far is the beach?
You don't leave the property for it. The hotel runs its own beach service, with staff circulating with towels and water, which is one of the things guests praise most. Chairs and umbrellas beyond what's included run about $25 each.
What time is check-in and check-out at the Miami Beach EDITION?
Check-in is 4:00 PM and check-out is 11:00 AM. You have to be 21 to check in.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, one pet per room, up to 25 pounds, with a non-refundable $250 fee for the stay.
Is the Miami Beach EDITION worth it?
It is if you're booking it for the design, the pool and the food. The building, the Sundial Pool and the Matador Room are why people come back, and the service around the pool and beach gets steady praise. The rooms are the weakest part of the package, small and spare for what the hotel costs, and the mid-beach setting means most of your spending happens on site. If you want a big room, or a walkable strip of restaurants and bars outside the door, your money goes further elsewhere.
