Quick Verdict: Mondrian South Beach vs The Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, Miami

When Mondrian South Beach wins: pick the Mondrian if you want to stay in South Beach proper with easy access to Lincoln Road, Art Deco sights, waterfront Mediterranean dining at Baia Beach Club, and roomy suites with kitchenettes — it’s the more urban, bayside social option.

When The Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, Miami wins: choose the Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne for a quieter, beach-oriented stay with beachfront access, multiple pools, extensive tennis facilities, a large full-service spa, and a broad range of ocean- and bay-view room types.
