About this hotel
South Beach ultra-luxury with Asian-inspired calm — multiple pools, elite guest scores, and a quieter premium alternative to party-forward beach hotels.
The Setai is the formal luxury pick when service ratio and serene design matter more than nightlife branding. At $549 with a 9.3 guest score, it sits in Faena/1 Hotel territory as a special-occasion South Beach base.

Ultra-luxury South Beach signal for travelers prioritizing polish over scene.
Frequently asked questions
Is The Setai worth the premium over 1 Hotel?
If you want more formal, serene luxury and are less focused on eco-lifestyle branding, yes. 1 Hotel often wins on modern beach energy at a lower rate band.
How does The Setai compare to Faena?
Both are ultra-luxury. Faena is more theatrical and arts-forward in Mid-Beach; The Setai is more restrained Asian-inspired luxury on South Beach.
Does The Setai feel like a resort or a hotel?
It feels like a self-contained luxury resort campus with multiple pools and beach access rather than a nightlife hotel.
