  • Set away from central Miami — tailored to guests spending time on property.
  • Close to local shopping (Promenade Shops) and regional airports within a 20–40 minute drive depending on traffic.
  • Resort layout favors on-site leisure rather than walkable city exploration.

Choose JW Marriott Turnberry if you prefer a destination resort setting rather than a downtown location.

Rooms: Compact, efficient hotel rooms vs spacious resort suites

YOTEL Miami offers 222 compact, cleverly designed rooms and suites.

  • Room types include Premium Room 1 King/Queen, Room 1 King/1 Queen, Junior Suite and Suite, 1 Bedroom.

  • MIA Gym includes Technogym and Peloton equipment and is open 24 hours.
  • Vela Sky hosts a weekday happy hour and an upbeat rooftop vibe for evening drinks.
