The Ritz-Carlton Coconut Grove is a 5-star hotel that is a staple of the city. While the property itself lacks that grandioseness and opulence that you’d expect from a Ritz-Carlton hotel, it is located enticingly close to Regatta Park (literally across the street) and offers views of Biscayne Bay. The hotel has a hot tub, fitness center, spa, and if you’re dreaming of a fairytale wedding, they’ve got a great event space, too. Don’t judge me but my favorite feature of the Ritz-Carlton Coconut Grove is The Commodore, a classic cocktail lounge with live music and an incredible selection of Scotch whisky. Aye.

If you’re looking for a cozy 3-star escape, Hotel Arya has you covered. While certainly not as posh as some of the other options on this list, Hotel Arya is the best value of all the best hotels in Coconut Grove. Dive into their rooftop pool, enjoy free wifi, and soak up its prime location. Just steps away, you’ll find CocoWalk, restaurants, shops, and oh, that rooftop pool? It has incredible views of Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline. Located across the street from Mr. C, Hotel Arya is a more affordable option to benefit from the same privileged location and views.

Courtyard by Marriott Miami Coconut Grove

Courtyard offers a dependable 3-star stay, with amenities like free wifi and an outdoor pool that’ll make you feel right at home. And if you’re a fan of seafood or just fancy a drink, it’s a short walk from Monty’s Raw Bar. The Bayshore Club is a bit further down the street and CocoWalk is a 10-minute stroll away. Convenience meets comfort. That’s why I consider it one of the best hotels in Coconut Grove.
