Outside, guests can have a grand time just staying at the hotel. They can dip in an Olympic-sized pool overlooking the beach, rent cabanas and launch off from a private boat dock. Inside the Wyndham, they can work out in a fitness center, relax in the steam rooms, buy posies from a florist and get their hair done in a salon. Business travelers can use a self-service business center and conduct get-togethers in 40,000 square feet of meeting space.

With names befitting Miami Beach restaurants, the Hibiscus Court and poolside Sea Breeze offer guests everything from continental cuisine to burgers. What's more, guests will find plenty of dining options in South Beach and in Bal Harbour.

Brightened with splashes of blues and greens, guestrooms come furnished with bathroom phones, high-speed Internet access, cozy pillow-top mattresses, and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer views of the city or ocean.

The Wyndham Miami Beach Resort caters to an international mix of business and vacationers, including families. Unlike many Miami Beach hotels who would rather not see children on their premises, this Wyndham provides parents with a slate of activities designed especially for their kids.
