Biltmore

Favored by celebrities since the 1920s, The Biltmore Hotel provides an oasis of privacy and tranquillity in the vibrant city of Coral Gables, Florida. The resort occupies a 150-acre tropical paradise with a renowned 18-hole golf course, tennis center, and America’s largest hotel pool—all just minutes from South Beach and downtown Miami.

Principal group facilities reside in the world-class Conference Center of the Americas (CCA), including a grand ballroom and terrace overlooking the golf course plus two state-of-the-art amphitheatres. The main hotel building adds twin ballrooms—each with distinctive, historically significant decor—as well as a selection of breakout rooms. Technologically advanced systems are totally integrated between the CCA and the Biltmore to ensure a flawless experience.

A $40 million renovation brought upgrades to the 276 deluxe rooms and suites, along with a new poolside restaurant and bar, furnished cabanas with butler service, and a Zen-inspired spa featuring Chardonnay massages and a tranquil relaxation lounge. The 18-hole, Donald Ross–designed golf course reopened in November 2007 with 10 additional acres and improved fairways.

Poolside, year-round events keep groups entertained: Martini Mondays, Fashionable Wednesdays, live jazz on Thursdays, and a champagne Sunday brunch and pig roast. For fine dining, guests can create their own menus from over 20 tasting plates at Palme d’Or, rated by Zagat as “exceptional to perfection.”
