Elegance, sophistication, and seduction describes Bal Harbour perfectly, as it is the locale of several five-star resorts.  My pick is St. Regis — a peerless haven of oceanfront elegance with a personal butler, two dazzling outdoor infinity pools, and over 300 metres of white sand beaches.  Legend has it that the Bloody Mary was invented by a St. Regis bartender in the 1930s, so don’t feel guilty about beginning each day with this iconic cocktail during your complimentary breakfast on the sun-filled Atlantikó terrace.
 
Private Perks: $100 spa credit, complimentary daily breakfast, early check-in/late check-out, complimentary upgrade, and more.
