The Betsy South Beach 

Southern charm in the midst of South Beach

The Betsy sits beachfront on the northernmost end of Ocean Drive. This landmark hotel offers a packed music, arts and culture calendar, and its rooftop pool deck offers inspirational ocean views.

The Betsy’s Southern charm-oozing exterior is an abrupt contrast to the frenzy of neon-lit cocktail bars and Art Deco façades that line Ocean Drive. In 2017, it was joined with the former Carlton Hotel to create a larger, unified hotel. The properties are linked by an orb-shaped bridge that’s been deemed a piece of public art, and the expansion heralded the arrival of a new ‘Art Deco wing’ to complement the original colonial-style building.
