About this apartment rental

Summary:

Welcome to a freshly renovated Ritz-Carlton studio on the shores of Key Biscayne - steps from the beach, minutes from Miami.



- Sleeps 4 | 1 bedroom | 2 beds | 1 bath

- Shared pool (year-round), hot tub & direct beach access

- Private balcony w/ partial ocean view

- Free on-site parking & EV charger

- Nespresso & Keurig, kitchenette, workspace & streaming TV

- Travel crib & pack 'n play available for families



The Space:

Just beyond the Rickenbacker Causeway, where the Miami skyline gives way to open water and island air, Key Biscayne operates at its own pace - and this 3rd-floor studio at the beachfront Ritz-Carlton puts you right in the middle of it. The resort reopened in December 2025 after a complete renovation, and the fresh finishes throughout the apartment reflect that. Step onto your private balcony, take in the partial ocean view, and settle in for a stay that's as easy or as active as you want it to be.



The space

The studio is thoughtfully arranged to feel comfortable for up to four guests. Two large custom-sized beds are the centerpiece of the sleeping area, dressed in quality linens with room-darkening shades to help you sleep in. Extra pillows and blankets, hangers, a safe, and an iron are all on hand for a stay that covers the basics without you having to think about them.



Work & entertainment

A dedicated desk space gives you a proper place to plan your days or catch up on anything that can't wait. The flat-screen TV has streaming options ready to go, and high-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout.



Kitchen & dining

The kitchenette is equipped for light meal prep - a refrigerator, microwave, cooking basics, and a full set of dishes and silverware. For morning coffee, you have your choice between a Nespresso machine and a Keurig. A toaster rounds out the setup.



Resort amenities

Access to the Ritz-Carlton's amenities is one of the real draws here. Guests have full use of the shared pool (available year-round), a shared hot tub, and the shared gym. Direct beach access is steps away. The property also includes free on-site parking - a genuine rarity in the Miami area - plus an EV charger, elevator access, and 24-hour building staff. Luggage drop-off is available for early arrivals or late departures, and self check-in keeps things flexible.



Families

A travel crib and pack 'n play are available for families with young children, along with babysitter recommendations through the resort.



Location

Key Biscayne sits between two major parks: Crandon Park to the north and Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park to the south - the latter recognized by Condé Nast Traveler as one of the best beaches in the nation. The island is also home to a nearby coastal barrier reef and the only federally recognized underwater archaeological trail in the United States. Miami's restaurants, nightlife, and cultural offerings are a short drive across the Rickenbacker Causeway.



Guest Access:

Guests will complete a standard check-in at the main hotel reception. Your stay grants you full access to the world-class amenities of the newly transformed Ritz-Carlton, set on seventeen acres of pristine beachfront property.



Your access includes:

* Private Studio: The entire studio apartment is for your private use.

* Complimentary Parking: One assigned parking space is included with your reservation.

* Resort Pools: Access to the family pool, children's pool, and the serene adults-only pool.

* Beach Access: Direct access to the sun-washed sand, with beach towels provided.

* Wellness Facilities: A state-of-the-art fitness center and 11 outdoor tennis courts.

* Dining: Full access to the resort's four restaurants and multiple bars, including a poolside bar.



The Neighborhood:

A trip to the Miami area isn't complete without a stop in Key Biscayne, just a short – and gorgeous – drive over the Rickenbacker Causeway from the big city.



From sunny beaches to the Ritz-Carlton resort, Key Biscayne offers all the allure of South Florida on a tiny sliver of land.



Key Biscayne has terrific beaches and the added appeal of being sandwiched between two major parks – Crandon Park to the north and Billl Baggs Cape Florida State Park, named by Conde Nast Traveler as one of the best beaches in the nation, to the south.



Key Biscayne also offers a nearby coastal barrier reef and the only federally recognized underwater archaeological trail in the United States.



Getting Around:

Downtown Miami - 15 Minutes/8.8 miles



Brickell - 15 Minutes/7.8 miles



Wynwood - 20 Minutes/12.5 miles



South Beach - 25 Minutes/14.8 miles



Airport - 20 Minutes/14.5 miles



Port of Miami - 22 Minutes/12.7 miles



Other Things to Note:

* Starter Supplies: We provide a starter kit of toiletries and home essentials (e.g., paper towels, dish soap). These items are not restocked during your stay. For longer visits, you may need to purchase additional supplies.

* Additional Charges: Please be aware that some hotel services and activities are available for a surcharge. These may include, but are not limited to, supervised childcare, beach cabanas, and in-room movies. Please inquire with the hotel for pricing.

Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The apartment is just as listed, and having access to the Ritz amenities was amazing. Great stay for our family.

Classy Ritz residence in amazing property. Alberto was incredibly communicative and helpful (although we needed nothing during our stay because everything was perfect). Looking forward to returning to Ritz Key Biscayne.
10 / 10Outstanding·Feb 2025
My husband and I had a fabulous time. This is an amazing location in a room at the Ritz with every Ritz amenity available. The partial ocean view was beautiful. It is a short ride to golf at Crandon which is one of the nicest golf courses open to the public in the area. Although we did not need anything, Alberto was very communicative. We hope to be back next time we head to Miami.
6 / 10Average·Jan 2025
The property mostly appears as the photos show except for the stained chair cushion, broken toilet paper holder, and mold growing on the shower curtain. There is no fan in the bathroom and not enough places to let towels dry. My first issue was the host provided four washcloths and six towels for my family of four staying for a week. This is unreasonable and certainly unacceptable at this price point. The host told me I could get fresh towels from reception, but that was not true. Then the host took a day to respond that the delivery service would take too long to deliver more linens and I could purchase more myself and be reimbursed. There are only two stores on the key and neither carried washcloths. The second issue was the minifridge started leaking water on the floor, which took a towel to clean up. The fridge kept leaking until it completely defrosted itself of four inches of built-up ice, about a day. The third issue began at 3 am when the fire sprinkler started to drip water and left one corner of the bed wet. Overall, it is an okay place but needs maintenance. The host generally responded quickly. Check out time was stated as 10 am sharp, but the cleaners showed up ten minutes before 10 am.
