What to pack for Eden Roc Miami Beach
Pack sun- and pool-ready items first: swimwear, reef-safe sunscreen, sunglasses, a wide-brim hat, and lightweight cover-ups for beach and pool use. Add a few smart-casual outfits for dinners at Ocean Social or Nobu Miami, and bring a photo ID plus the credit/debit card you’ll use to check in.

Beach and pool essentials
Eden Roc Miami Beach provides direct beach access, three outdoor oceanfront pools, pool loungers, umbrellas, and two daily beach loungers included in the resort fee. Pack items that make long beach and pool days comfortable.
One upper-level pool is reserved as an adults-only pool while the lower pools are family-friendly; the property also offers ocean-view cabanas and a poolside Aquatica Bar with daytime service.
- Swimsuits (bring at least two so one can dry)
- Reef-safe sunscreen (broad-spectrum SPF 30+ recommended)
- Beach towel or quick-dry towel (the resort provides towels, but extras can help)
- Lightweight cover-up or rash guard for sun protection
- Waterproof phone pouch or dry bag

| Beach loungers (2/day included in resort fee) | Beach bag, sunglasses |
| Three oceanfront pools (one adults-only) | Swim shoes, swim diapers if needed |
| Poolside food & Aquatica Bar (11:00am–6:00pm) | Cash/card for extras, reusable water bottle |
What to pack for dining and evenings
Eden Roc has multiple on-site restaurants with dress guidelines: Ocean Social requires casual elegant attire (no bathing suits), and Nobu Miami asks for smart casual dress. The Lobby Bar is more relaxed but still a polished lounge.
Plan 1–2 evening outfits that are a step up from beachwear: lightweight collared shirts, sundress or linen pants, and closed-toe shoes if you prefer. Bring a light layer for air-conditioned restaurants and bars.
- Casual elegant outfit for Ocean Social (no bathing suits)
- Smart-casual outfit for Nobu Miami
- Light jacket or shawl for evenings indoors
- Comfortable sandals and one pair of dress shoes

| Nobu Miami | Smart casual | Dinner from 6:00pm (Sun–Thu until 9:45pm; Fri–Sat until 10:45pm) |
| Lobby Bar | Polished lounge wear | 11:00am–11:00pm (Thu–Sat open later) |
