Sole Miami, A Noble House Resort

Forty-eight beachfront rooms line Sole Miami's tower at 17315 Collins Avenue in Sunny Isles, a residential stretch of Miami Beach eleven miles north of South Beach's nightlife strip. Every unit keeps a private balcony and kitchenette, better suited to week-long stays than overnight business trips.

The pool deck runs directly onto sand rather than a boardwalk crossing, and an on-site spa handles treatments without a shuttle to a partner property. Bal Harbour Shops sit ten minutes south by car for those wanting retail without the Ocean Drive crowds.
