The Setai, Miami Beach Retains Two MICHELIN Keys in the 2026 MICHELIN Guide

The Setai, Miami Beach has retained Two MICHELIN Keys in the 2026 MICHELIN Guide, the highest hotel distinction awarded in Miami Beach. The recognition — defined by the MICHELIN Guide as "an exceptional stay" — was announced as part of the Guide's global reveal on September 18, 2026. The Setai is one of only three hotels in the Miami Beach area to hold Two MICHELIN Keys in 2026.

"We are deeply honored to once again receive Two MICHELIN Keys and be recognized among Miami Beach's leading hotels," said Alex S. Furrer, General Manager of The Setai, Miami Beach. "This continued recognition is a reflection of our team's passion and dedication to creating extraordinary moments and delivering the thoughtful, personalized service that defines The Setai experience."

Launched in 2024, the MICHELIN Keys recognize outstanding hotels within the MICHELIN Guide's global selection. Like the Guide's MICHELIN Stars for restaurants, the Keys distinguish properties based on the overall quality of the hospitality experience — encompassing service, design, dining, and the intangible sense of place that separates a great hotel from a memorable one.

The Setai offers a serene oceanfront retreat that blends Asian-inspired hospitality with Miami Beach's Art Deco character. Housed in a restored 1937 landmark building within the historic Art Deco District, the property features 91 Art Deco rooms, three Pool Villas, and 62 Ocean Suites, including the Penthouse. Three temperature-controlled pools framed by cabanas and palm trees anchor the outdoor experience, alongside full beachfront services.

Dining at The Setai spans three distinct concepts: Jaya, the hotel's acclaimed South Asian restaurant; Ocean Grill, a beachside Mediterranean-Italian venue; and Japón, a contemporary Japanese offering. Wellness is anchored by Valmont for The Spa at The Setai, Miami Beach, while a Les Clefs d'Or Concierge Team assists guests in exploring Miami's cultural offerings. The kitchen is led by Executive Chef Vijayudu Veena.

The Setai holds membership with The Leading Hotels of the World, carries an AAA Five Diamond designation, and has received the Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Award consecutively since 2015. The hotel has also appeared in Condé Nast Traveler's Readers' Choice Awards. For reservations and information, visit thesetaihotel.com.
