TIM BOND falls under the stylish 1930s spell of a Miami hotel that's both perfectly placed and budget-friendly

- TIM BOND

VIBE: Kent Miami Beach is a charming, fully restored boutique property which dates back to 1939 and belies its official three-star rating with quality oozing from every pore - the lobby gorgeous in gold and bold chocolate brown, while the palm-draped exterior is lit in a perky green at night.

But it has all the 21st century conveniences and technology you could want, with wi-fi in public areas and all rooms.

Ideally located in the heart of Miami Beach's South Beach neighbourhood, it’s steps away from world-class dining, shopping and entertainment. And, of course, that famous beach.
