Mediterranean Mood

Book a spring reset at Casa Faena, Miami Beach’s most charming boutique hotel. An intimate Spanish Colonial gem just steps from the beach; Casa Faena houses Mediterranean-chic guest rooms, an artfilled atrium, and the see-and-be-seen GITANO restaurant and rooftop bar.

A tropical oasis of lush greenery and bohemian brio, GITANO brings an air of Tulum to South Beach with delicious food, Latin-leaning libations, and spirited diversion. “We’re traveling the world and connecting a funloving healthy-living community,” said founder James Gardner.

“The rooftop is spectacular at sunset,” Gardner noted. “We call it the ‘Golden Hour’ because there’s a relaxed vibe, but it’s also fun.” In striped Bedouin-style tipis, guests’ tipple mezcal elixirs like the piquant Jungle Fever, muddled with cilantro, chili, and lime. Other crowd favorites include the Gypsy Disco 75 cocktail, GITANO’s twist on the French 75 with rosé champagne, StGermain, and Ély vodka served up with a fresh raspberry garnish. “And of course, there’s always our iconic GITANO Margarita, which brings a sense of familiarity and home, whether you’re with us in Tulum, New York, or Miami.”
