Elite Overview

Jayne Mansfield honeymooned at the Eden Roc Renaissance Miami Beach. Elizabeth Taylor celebrated her birthday there. In fact, in the decade after the hotel opened in Miami Beach, Florida, in 1956, everyone from the Ricardos and Mertzes in
I Love Lucy to Frank Sinatra, Barbra Streisand, and Sammy Davis, Jr., came to see architect Morris Lapidus's grand accomplishment. Today's Eden Roc–a Renaissance Beach Resort & Spa treasures its history while also reveling in a chic new spirit.
The Eden Roc Renaissance recently emerged from the penultimate phase of a $200-million renovation with an adjoining tower, marina, and the latest comforts and conveniences in its fitness center, accommodations, and meeting spaces. As conferences wind down, attentions often turn to the three bars and restaurants, four infinity-edge pools, and world-famous beach. The Elle Spa debuts late in winter 2011.
