Andaz Debuts in Florida with Opening of Andaz Miami Beach
Hyatt Hotels Corporation has officially launched Andaz Miami Beach, marking the Andaz brand’s debut in Florida and its first opening under the newly formed Hyatt Lifestyle Group. Located on Mid-Beach, the hotel transforms the iconic former Confidante Miami Beach into a serene yet vibrant waterfront retreat featuring Mediterranean-inspired design, curated culinary experiences by José Andrés Group, and elevated lifestyle amenities.
With its grand opening on May 5, 2025, Andaz Miami Beach introduces a new level of contemporary coastal luxury to the Miami hospitality scene. Designed by EoA Group in collaboration with Hyatt’s in-house Lifestyle Group team, the property reflects the natural flow of the ocean with a soft, curved architectural aesthetic that contrasts the city's typical rigid geometry.
The resort features 287 rooms, including 64 suites, each offering panoramic views of either the Atlantic Ocean or Miami’s dynamic skyline. The hotel’s layout balances urban energy with beachside tranquility, offering two heated outdoor pools, private cabanas, a spa, and a soon-to-open members’ beach club. These amenities position the property as a perfect getaway — close to South Beach, yet nestled within Mid-Beach’s more relaxed atmosphere.
A key highlight of the Andaz Miami Beach experience is its culinary partnership with José Andrés Group. Currently, guests can enjoy Aguasal, a beachside eatery that celebrates Latin and Mediterranean coastal cuisine, and Bar Centro, a chic lobby bar known for inventive cocktails and small plates. Later this year, the hotel will unveil The Bazaar by José Andrés, a signature restaurant known for its avant-garde approach to global flavors.
Amar Lalvani, President & Creative Director of the Hyatt Lifestyle Group, described the resort as “a place where you arrive and never want to leave,” praising its “effortlessly cool” vibe and the culinary excellence brought by José Andrés.
More lifestyle features are scheduled to launch in the coming months, including the full-service spa and exclusive beach club, further positioning the resort as a comprehensive wellness and leisure destination.
Owned by Sunstone Hotel Investors, Andaz Miami Beach joins the growing Hyatt portfolio of Andaz properties known for their locally inspired design, vibrant energy, and immersive guest experiences. This opening also underscores Hyatt’s strategic focus on lifestyle brands following the formation of the Lifestyle Group, designed to streamline and expand the company’s presence in the modern luxury space.
