Cas
Spanish Colonial meets Art Deco. Hand-carved beds, Spanish floor tiles, rose-toned interiors, and a bookshelf-lined atrium that feels like someone's very well-curated home. Less theatrical than the Faena Hotel, more like a heritage guesthouse that happens to be connected to one of Miami Beach's most culturally ambitious properties.
Book a treatment at Tierra Santa and tack on a pool cabana day — the combination of spa ritual plus beach lounging is the move
Why It Matters
One of the genuinely historic hotels still operating on Miami Beach — a member of Historic Hotels of America since 2015, built in 1928, and designed by the architect who also built Miami Beach's city hall. It punches above its size by giving guests access to the entire Faena District ecosystem: world-class spa, celebrity-chef restaurants, a performance theater, and live music nightly.
Casa Faena is a 38-room boutique hotel housed in a Spanish Revival building from 1928 — originally called El Paraiso Apartments and designed by Martin L. Hampton, the same architect behind Miami Beach City Hall. It sits one block from the Atlantic on Collins Avenue in the Faena District, and it is the quieter, more residential alternative to the maximalist Faena Hotel next door. Rooms are smaller and the vibe is genuinely old-world, but guests get full access to the district's 22,000 sq ft Tierra Santa Healing House, Francis Mallmann's fire-cooking temple, and a full calendar of nightly live music and events.
Where You'll Stay
5 room types available
Casa Double Double
Two double beds with handcrafted furniture and soaking tubs — the best option for families or friends traveling together. The soaking tub is a nice touch for a room at this size. Mediterranean energy throughout.
2 Double Beds
Casa King
Sun-drenched spaces with Mediterranean-inspired design and a custom California king bed. Slightly larger than the Queen rooms and the go-to choice for couples who need the extra sprawl. Still city-view only.
1 California King Bed
Casa Queen
Shades of rose and hand-carved custom beds define these beachside sanctuaries. The signature four-poster with pink curtained windows sets the tone — artisanal craftsmanship without being fussy about it. City views, no ocean-facing rooms at this property.
1 Queen Bed
King Studio Suite
The largest quarters in the hotel at 400 sq ft, blending indoor and outdoor living. This is the top category — a harmonious mix of interior comfort and outdoor access that makes it feel more expansive than the square footage suggests. The best option if you want the full Casa Faena experience.
1 King Bed
Queen Suite
Hand-carved custom beds and authentic Argentine accents inspired by the relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle. Technically a suite designation, though the footprint is close to the standard queen room — the distinction lies in the elevated Argentine design details and suite-level finishes.
