The Biltmore

The Biltmore opened in Coral Gables in 1926 and remains one of South Florida’s most recognizable historic hotels, centered on a soaring Mediterranean Revival tower.

The 271 rooms and suites preserve a traditional resort atmosphere while offering views over the enormous swimming pool, golf course or tree-lined streets of Coral Gables.

Golf is a defining amenity, with an 18-hole Donald Ross-designed championship course directly on the property. The resort also includes tennis, a major fitness center and extensive meeting and event facilities.

The 12,000-square-foot spa provides another reason to stay on property, while restaurants and poolside dining make the hotel feel like a self-contained destination rather than merely a base for Miami.

The Biltmore is best for travelers who want classic Florida resort life away from the beach, especially when architecture, golf and history matter more than South Beach nightlife.
