Family-friendly hotels in Miami Beach (8)

Oceanfront hotel with family programming, a large pool deck, direct beach access and suites that can add a crib.

Eleven pools, one of them a children's poolscape with a waterslide, and a kids club that runs camp days and a Kids' Night Out.

The Seedlings kids club runs while parents are at one of four pools, and rooms connect for families who need two.

Daily family games, cooking lessons and crafts by the pool, and suites with a pull-out bed so everyone fits in one room.

A kids club and a toy library on an oceanfront block, with suites for families who need the extra room.

Every room has a kitchenette with a fridge, cooktop and microwave, and a balcony, which makes naps and snacks easier.

Faena Play keeps children busy by the pool, and the beach is straight across the sand from it.

A bowling alley and an ice rink downstairs for a rainy afternoon, a family pool upstairs and the beach beyond it.
