Fontainebleau Miami Beach
Great stay at the Fontainebleau. The suite was spacious and had a great view of the beach and the resort. The credit as a result of being an Expedia member was able to be used everywhere and the drinks/food service poolside is excellent. Overall a place to stay if you like the Miami vibe!
