Our History: A Miami Beach Landmark Since 1947

The Legacy of the Sherry Frontenac Oceanfront Hotel

Built in 1947, the Sherry Frontenac is a historic oceanfront hotel in Miami Beach, designed by renowned architect Henry Hohauser. With its distinctive Art Deco style and beachfront location on Collins Avenue, the hotel remains a timeless landmark in North Beach.

The hotel’s distinctive twin nine-story towers—connected by a grand, three-story lobby—were inspired by the elegance of ocean liners, giving guests the feeling of being aboard a ship floating on the Atlantic. From its sweeping lobby, oceanfront pool and beachfront views, the Sherry Frontenac quickly became a favorite destination for travelers seeking both style and sunshine.

Over the decades, the Sherry Frontenac has preserved its mid-century charm while embracing modern comfort and hospitality. Today, it stands as one of Miami Beach’s most historic oceanfront hotels, recognized for its architectural significance and timeless allure.

Whether visiting for business or leisure, guests continue to experience the same authentic Miami Beach heritage that has defined the Sherry Frontenac for more than 75 years.
