The Savoy Hotel & Beach Club
Miami Beach, Florida, United States · Independent · Accessible Luxury
Two of South Beach's rare prewar beachside hotels share one two-acre address here: the 1935 Savoy Plaza by V.H. Nellenbogen and the late-1930s Arlington by Albert Anis. Their three-story Art Deco façades still frame pools, gardens, and 200 feet of Atlantic frontage at the quiet end of Ocean Drive, a hotel compound that feels closer to early Miami Beach than the towers farther north.
- 31 rooms
- Opened 1935
- Neighborhood: South Beach
- Rooms from 600 sq ft (56 m²)
- Architect: V.H. Nellenbogen and Albert Anis
About The Savoy Hotel & Beach Club
- The Savoy Plaza and Arlington are two of only four surviving prewar hotels on the beach side of Ocean Drive.
- Economic restraint after the 1926 hurricane and the Great Depression helped give the Savoy its intimate, three-story scale rather than a grand-hotel silhouette.
- A 2018 restoration preceded the hotel's admission to Historic Hotels of America in 2020.
- Entry-level rooms start at 600 sq ft (56 m²).
History
The Savoy Plaza opened in 1935 in a restrained Art Deco building by V.H. Nellenbogen. The neighboring Hotel Arlington followed later in the decade with a Classical Revival Art Deco design by Albert Anis. The two three-story hotels were eventually joined as The Savoy Hotel & Beach Club and restored in 2018.
The setting
The property spans 425 to 455 Ocean Drive in South of Fifth, directly on the beach between Fourth and Fifth streets. Its two acres sit at the quieter southern end of the Miami Beach Architectural District.
