When Eden Roc Miami Beach wins: choose Eden Roc if you want a full-service resort format — direct beach access, three outdoor oceanfront pools (including a designated adults-only pool), a large 22,000 sq ft Esencia Wellness Spa, and multiple restaurants including Nobu and Ocean Social. It’s the more resort-style, family-oriented option.
