A Girls’ Weekend at Four Seasons Miami – Brickell Edition
I recently returned from a much-needed girls’ weekend in Miami, where we stayed at Four Seasons Miami in Brickell. While there are two Four Seasons properties in Miami — Brickell and Surfside — we opted for the Brickell location. Surfside, situated on South Beach, is undoubtedly the better resort option with its beachfront vibes, but Brickell’s city-center location was ideal for the activities we had planned. You can read our review of Surfside here, where Angela from Team O recently spent her babymoon.
Relaxation Meets Urban Sophistication
Our days began with relaxing by the stunning rooftop pool, which features a unique hammock area floating above the water. This playful touch adds personality to an otherwise sleek city hotel and is the perfect place to unwind while soaking in the Miami sunshine. Poolside service didn’t disappoint either; the fresh coconut water was a standout, offering a refreshing way to stay hydrated in the heat.
Dining Adventures in Miami
Nights were reserved for exploring some of Miami’s most talked-about dining spots:
- Osaka Miami: Just two blocks from the hotel, this Peruvian-Japanese fusion restaurant impressed us with its fresh flavors and vibrant atmosphere. We ordered about 15 different items and genuinely couldn’t pick a favorite.
- Casa Neos: Located along the Miami River, this newcomer (and sister restaurant to MILA) delivered incredible dishes and scenic waterfront views. The food wasn’t as impressive as Osaka, but the atmosphere was better.
Staying Active and Energized
We also made time to check out the gym, which doubles as an Equinox fitness club — a great perk for Four Seasons guests. Mornings started with indulgent breakfasts, which were included as part of Four Seasons Preferred Partner (FSPP) benefits.
The hotel’s Bahia Restaurant, located near the pool, served delicious options like avocado toast. For cocktails, the watermelon margarita at Edge was a standout — hands down, the best margarita we’ve ever had. Trust us, we’re margarita enthusiasts!
Accommodations and Upgrades
A surprise room upgrade elevated our stay to a Premier Bayfront Room, thanks to Ourisman Travel’s Preferred Partner perks. The room offered sweeping views of Biscayne Bay, with golden hour providing picture-perfect moments. We were also welcomed with a thoughtful fresh fruit tray and a handwritten card.
For those considering a more luxurious stay, the hotel recently remodeled its specialty suites:
- The Penthouse Suite: A one-bedroom suite on the 27th floor with breathtaking views of Biscayne Bay, spanning 2,830 square feet — the largest penthouse in Brickell.
- Bayfront Presidential Suites: Three one-bedroom suites with 2,190 square feet each, offering stunning bay views and the option to connect with additional guest rooms, making them ideal for families or small gatherings.
