Dua Miami is anything but your typical Floridian hotel.

But perhaps nowhere is that spirit of change more obvious than in Magic City’s Brickell neighborhood.

One of Brickell’s latest developments is theDua Miami, Autograph Collection, formerly known as the SLS Brickell.

Weil describes Dua Miami as dynamic, evocative, and indulgent, and the hotel is certainly evocative.

During my stay, I spent the weekend in a 450-square-foot deluxe king balcony room.

There was also a mirrored side table and desk, white lacquer closets, and an oversized abstract painting.

Food and Drink

There are two restaurants at Dua Miami, Ahu | Mar and the Lounge.

Breakfast is served here, too the buttermilk pancakes topped with blueberry compote hits all the right notes.

I opted for the “North Star” Himalayan salt scrub and felt refreshed after the 50-minute treatment.

Alternatively, you could opt for the two-bedroom presidential suite, which can sleep up to five.

Both room categories have large bathrooms with soaking tubs as well as separate living and dining rooms.

Public spaces at Dua Miami are also easy to access.

The lobby and ground-level restaurants are completely level, with no steps.

Dua Miami has also adopted a number of sustainability initiatives.

Agave straws and biodegradable to-go containers and utensils are available at all dining outlets.
