Andaz Miami Beach (Formerly The Confidante) Will Open Later This Year

Hyatt announced that The Confidante Miami Beach, part of The Unbound Collection by Hyatt, would be closing for a renovation and rebranding back in 2022. The hotel closed its doors on March 25, 2024, to allow for the full transformation to be completed.

It will be rebranded as Andaz Miami Beach and is set to open in late 2024. Here’s a look at what you can expect from this new Hyatt location.

What To Expect at Andaz Miami Beach

The Confidante Miami Beach was a beachfront property with 339 rooms and 2 swimming pools. The original building dates back to the 1940s and has undergone many changes throughout the years.

After extensive renovations, the hotel will be known as the Andaz Miami Beach (the first location for the Andaz brand in Florida) and is scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of 2024.

“This exciting journey brings the luxury lifestyle Andaz brand to Florida along with exciting collaborations like Jose Andres Group. We look forward to welcoming back our guests and local community to a completely new and bold hotel, embodying the distinctly native experience and expressive nature of the Andaz brand, while still capturing the essence of Miami Beach,” said Amy Johnson, general manager, Andaz Miami Beach.

Here’s what guests can look forward to once Andaz Miami Beach opens:

• A unique check-in experience with ocean views
• An outdoor restaurant terrace
• 2 swimming pools
• A spa and fitness center
• Second-level outdoor Andaz Lounge
• 25,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor event space

Much consideration is being given to the hotel’s culinary offerings. José Andrés Group will open 3 distinct dining experiences at the hotel, including a craft cocktail bar. All dining venues are expected to open with the hotel.

Guest rooms and suites will be clean and modern. A palate of neutrals with muted pinks and greens offers a sophisticated take on Miami style.

How To Book Andaz Miami Beach

Andaz Miami Beach isn’t available to book quite yet. However, when it’s open, we expect this location to be a great option at which you can redeem World of Hyatt points.

The Confidante Miami Beach was a Category 5 World of Hyatt property before it closed, which meant award nights cost 17,000 (off-peak), 20,000 (standard), or 23,000 (peak) points per night. The category rating for the Andaz Miami Beach hasn’t yet been announced and we’re eager to learn where it will fall.

While we wait for the highly anticipated property to open, now is a great time to earn World of Hyatt points so you can book a stay as soon as it does open. There are many ways to earn Hyatt points, including staying at Hyatt hotels, spending on Hyatt credit cards, and transferring points from Chase Ultimate Rewards or Bilt Rewards.

Final Thoughts

It’s exciting to see the renovation and rebranding of The Confidante moving along. The Andaz Miami Beach will be a great addition to the Hyatt portfolio when it opens in late 2024.
