The property features eleven pools, several restaurants, a spa, and a renowned nightclub, with guest rooms overlooking either the ocean or the city.
The hotel was built in 1954 and became a symbol of Miami Beach's emergence as a luxury destination. Its 2008 renovation modernized the structure while preserving its historical character and establishing it as a contemporary resort.
The hotel's name references the French palace of Fontainebleau, reflecting a desire to bring European luxury and grandeur to Miami Beach. Visitors can see this cultural reference in the spacious design and the artworks displayed throughout the public areas.
The hotel is located in the Mid-Beach area, about 10 to 15 minutes from popular attractions, and is easily accessible from Miami International Airport. Guests should know that parking incurs daily fees and the hotel charges a daily amenity fee that includes WiFi, beach chairs, and fitness classes.
The hotel features Ai Weiwei art installations in the lobby that are admired by many visitors and add an artistic dimension to the property. These contemporary works create an interesting contrast with the building's classical architecture and are visible during every visit.
