Pools, cabanas and current renovation notices
Cadillac Hotel & Beach Club has two outdoor pools: a family-friendly pool and a smaller adults-only pool (21+). As of publicly reported renovation notices, both pools and Bungalow Beach Bar & Grill were taken offline for resort enhancements in mid-2025; some listings show the work scheduled provisionally through November 30, 2026 — beach access and other hotel services have remained available.

Which pools are on property
The hotel operates two distinct outdoor pools: a family-friendly pool that welcomes guests of all ages and a separate adults-only pool reserved for guests 21 and older.
The adults-only pool is described as a smaller, rectangular, calmer retreat set apart from the family pool through a short, tree-shaded entryway — useful if you want quieter pool time.
- Family pool: open to children, family-focused programming and poolside fitness classes are sometimes scheduled.
- Adults-only pool: for guests 21 and older seeking a quieter environment.
- Pool hours (listed by third-party sources): typically 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM.
| Pool | Who | Typical Hours |
|---|---|---|
| Family pool | All ages | 6:00 AM – 8:00 PM |
| Adults-only pool | 21+ only | 6:00 AM – 8:00 PM |
Cabanas and poolside seating
Poolside cabanas and loungers are offered on the pool deck; third-party listings and the hotel's information say cabanas are available for an extra charge.
The resort fee includes beach chairs and towels and two complimentary beach chairs daily, but cabana rental fees are separate and typically charged in addition to the mandatory resort fee.
- Cabanas: available for additional fee (reserve in advance when pools are open).
- Loungers and umbrellas: provided around the pool and on the beach as part of resort-fee inclusions (beach chairs and towels).
- Beach cabanas and pool privileges: policies and availability can change during renovation periods — confirm with the hotel before arrival.
| What's included | Included with resort fee? |
|---|---|
| Beach chairs & towels | Yes |
| Bicycle rental | Yes |
| Poolside cabana rental | No — extra charge |
Current renovation notices affecting pools and Bungalow
Public notices reported that in mid-2025 both pools and the Bungalow Beach Bar and Grill were taken offline for 'resort enhancements.' During that prior closure the hotel kept beach access and other services available.
A third-party listing cites the renovation scheduled provisionally through November 30, 2026. That date is a third-party estimate and described as provisional; the hotel’s official schedule and reopening dates may change.
- If pools or Bungalow are closed during your stay, beach access remained available in previous notices.
- Confirm pool and Bungalow status with the hotel before arrival, especially if pool access or cabana rental is important to your trip.
- Ask the front desk about alternate amenities (spa treatments in cabanas, pool-class schedules elsewhere, or temporary food/beverage options) if poolside venues are closed.
| Item | Reported mid-2025 status | Third-party projected completion |
|---|---|---|
| Family pool | Taken offline for enhancements | Provisional through Nov 30, 2026 |
| Adults-only pool | Taken offline for enhancements | Provisional through Nov 30, 2026 |
| Bungalow Beach Bar & Grill | Taken offline for enhancements | Provisional through Nov 30, 2026 |
If the pools are closed: beach and alternatives
When the pools are unavailable, the property has direct beach access and includes beach chairs and towels via the resort fee. The hotel’s Mid-Beach location along Collins Avenue still gives you oceanfront access and the Miami Beach Boardwalk nearby.
Other on-site options include K'Alma Spa treatments (some can be delivered poolside or in cabanas when available), the 24-hour gym, and daily poolside fitness classes when pools are operating.
- Beach access and two daily complimentary beach chairs are included through the resort fee.
- Spa services at K'Alma Spa can sometimes be scheduled at cabanas or in-room—ask about outdoor treatment availability.
- Bicycle rentals are included with the resort fee and are a good option for getting to the Miami Beach Boardwalk or nearby attractions.
| Alternative | Notes |
|---|---|
| Beach seating | Included with resort fee; towels and chairs provided |
| K'Alma Spa | Seven suites and outdoor treatment options; book in advance |
| Gym & fitness classes | 24-hour gym; poolside classes offered when pools open |
Booking tips for rooms and pool access
If pool access is a priority, contact the hotel directly before booking to confirm the current pool and cabana status rather than relying solely on third-party dates. The property enforces a 21+ minimum for booking/check-in, but families are welcome under that adult reservation.
Room types at the hotel include many oceanfront and pool-view categories. If you want proximity to pool areas, consider room types that list 'Pool View' in their name (for example, Premium Room, Pool View, Tower or Premium Room, Pool View (Mobility/, Tub)).
- Mention pool or cabana needs when reserving — availability can be limited during enhancements.
- Ask about cabana pricing and whether any temporary poolside food/beverage service is in place during renovations.
- Check whether the 'Beach Escape' rate or similar packages affect resort-fee waivers or beach-chair inclusions.
| Example room names | Why choose it |
|---|---|
| Premium Room, Pool View, Tower | Faces the pool deck — good if pool access is open |
| Premium Room, Oceanfront | Direct ocean views and balcony for beach watching even if pools are closed |
| Suite, 1 Bedroom, Oceanfront | More living space and ocean views; useful for families or longer stays |
