The Shelborne, Miami
Expert reviews
“The Shelborne by Proper, an Art Deco gem just north of the bustle of South Beach, reopened this year after a $100 million upgrade. The hotel has a relaxed pool (with a historic diving board preserved in the renovation) and beach bed set ups.”
“Miami Beach’s midcentury Art Deco scene may have cemented its place in design history, but today a new, grown-up iteration can be found in the form of The Shelborne By Proper. After a $100 million renovation, the hotel is leading the wave of change on Collins Avenue’s popular six-block strip of hotels and boutiques, an area that is set to fully transform by 2027.”
“Proper Hospitality has given an art deco classic a new lease of life. The Shelborne reopened in May 2025 after a sweeping renovation with modern furnishings, stylish rooms, an oasis-like pool and stellar hospitality.”

All you need to know
The Shelborne by Proper in Miami Beach is such a cool rebirth of a real Art Deco icon. Originally opened in 1940 and blending classic Deco with mid-century MiMo style, the hotel went through a major $100 million renovation and now feels sleek, warm, and totally refreshed.
The design studio ADC Atelier did a terrific job melding historic touches, like the iconic 1950s diving board and the 18th Street façade, with modern, tropical finishes: think honed marble, travertine, wood accents, and a color palette of moss green, terracotta, and powder blue.
But it’s not just about looks. This hotel really lives and breathes Miami. With 251 rooms, suites, and villas (many with killer ocean or pool views), there are great spaces for relaxing or entertaining. The food scene is equally impressive: Chef Abram Bissell (famous from Eleven Madison Park) runs Paul ine, a restaurant full of Latin American and Caribbean flair.
Plus, the pool deck is a dream, complete with cabanas, palm trees, and that retro diving board, and there’s a private beach club for when you want to soak up some sun.
