I'm planning a 4-night trip to Miami in October with the Mrs. to celebrate a special occasion. The last time we did this we stayed at the St. Regis Bal Harbor and she just loved the large balcony with the lounge chair. I'm trying to decide if we should return there or try something else. Are there any other properties in the area that are on the beach and have the same type of balcony setup (not just a chair to sit in, but a lounge chair to... well, lounge in )? Ideally the place also has a soaking tub and not just a shower or regular tub, and has a quiet and relaxing pool area.

I've just gone through all the pictures of the rooms at the various Miami/Ft. Lauderdale beach properties and it seems most just have a smaller balcony with chairs and a table.

The Marriott Stanton Beach seems to have a few rooms with large balconies, but the only picture they have showing a large balcony with lounge chairs is for a city view room. Can anyone confirm if they have the same setup for ocean view rooms? And do these rooms have tubs, or just showers?

The W Ft. Lauderdale seems to have some suites with large balconies but no lounge chairs from what I can tell - they seem to have some sort of a wicker couch instead. But I also don't love the idea of the large and busy street between the hotel and the beach, or the pool that seems to be right above that busy street.

Any advice would be appreciated.
