This European-inspired resort in Miami stretches across an entire city block, complete with a private beachfront dotted with daybeds and dedicated play areas for children. There\u2019s also a pool for kids, an adult-only pool lounge, and plenty of ocean activities nearby, courtesy of Cadillac\u2019s local partners at BouYah Watersports. Speed through waves on a jet ski, cruise around the bay on a kayak, or parasail above this Art Deco paradise.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Families can also enjoy the hotel\u2019s Italian chophouse, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.donnamare.com\/\"><strong>Donna Mare<\/strong><\/a>, indulge in seafood at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cadillachotelmiamibeach.com\/bungalow-by-the-sea\"><strong>Bungalow Beach Bar &amp; Grill<\/strong><\/a>, or satisfy a sweet tooth with dessert from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cadillachotelmiamibeach.com\/dining\/ii-merkato\"><strong>Il Merkato<\/strong><\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"santa-monica\"><strong>Soak Up the Sun in Santa Monica<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-13 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"4375\" data-src=\"https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Ambrose01V2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Patio with lots of seating and lounge spaces at The Ambrose Hotel in Santa Monica\" class=\"wp-image-4375 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Ambrose01V2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Ambrose01V2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Ambrose01V2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Ambrose01V2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Ambrose01V2-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"4109\" data-src=\"https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/JamesBaigrie_Ambrose_room_304_luxurystudioking_366-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Guest room at The Ambrose Hotel in Santa Monica\" class=\"wp-image-4109 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/JamesBaigrie_Ambrose_room_304_luxurystudioking_366-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/JamesBaigrie_Ambrose_room_304_luxurystudioking_366-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/JamesBaigrie_Ambrose_room_304_luxurystudioking_366-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/JamesBaigrie_Ambrose_room_304_luxurystudioking_366-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/JamesBaigrie_Ambrose_room_304_luxurystudioking_366-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"5496\" data-src=\"https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/N019076-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5496 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/N019076-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/N019076-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/N019076-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/N019076-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/N019076-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"3014\" data-src=\"https:\/\/ichotelsblog.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/aroundthearea_GettyImages-1266364936-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A cute mixed race family enjoys the rides and sun at the fair activities on Santa Monica Pier in Los Angeles, California.

Luxury linens, plush robes, and multiple TVs make downtime feel just as good as time spent out exploring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Location is another major perk. Families are a short walk from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.santamonica.gov\/places\/parks\/palisades-park\">Palisades Park<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.santamonicapier.org\/\">Santa Monica Pier<\/a>, and the beach, with bike paths and ocean views that make getting around feel like part of the experience.
