You can eat well without leaving the hotel. Jaya serves South Asian cuisine, Japón offers contemporary Japanese dishes, and Ocean Grill has Mediterranean-Italian flavors in an oceanfront setting. The Lobby and Courtyard Bars serve cocktails and light bites, and there's also a snack bar. For a change of scene, Lincoln Road and Collins Avenue are a short walk away with many restaurants and cafés. The Miami Beach Botanical Garden is an 8-minute walk if you want a stroll before a meal.
The Setai sits right on the ocean at the northern end of South Beach, a quieter, refined part of the strip with other luxury hotels and local bars like Sweet Liberty nearby. Collins Park is a block north, and you can stroll to the Bass Museum of Art and the New World Symphony. Lincoln Road and the Miami Beach Convention Center are within walking distance, and the Miami Beach Botanical Garden is an 8-minute walk away. The beach is right at your door for a relaxed, upscale neighborhood feel, with Collins Avenue shopping close by for a wander.
From Miami International Airport, take the free MIA Mover to the Metrorail station, then the Orange Line to Government Center. From there, the Metromover loops downtown, but for the hotel, the Route 150 Miami Beach Airport Express bus runs along Collins Avenue and stops near the hotel. A taxi or ride-hailing service takes you door to door in about 20 to 35 minutes. From the main train station, MiamiCentral, connect via Metromover to Government Center and follow the same bus or taxi route to the beach.
In the evening, The Setai has its own Bar and Courtyard for cocktails and light bites, plus Japón for contemporary Japanese dinner. A short walk takes you to Lincoln Road's shops and restaurants, and the Bass Museum of Art, which is also nearby. Local bars like Sweet Liberty in the area offer a lively scene. For a stroll, Miami Beach Botanical Garden is an 8-minute walk, though it's a daytime spot. Lummus Park, 21 minutes away, is a pleasant evening walk by the beach. The hotel's beachfront location also means you can enjoy the ocean breeze after dark.
The Setai is a great base for exploring Miami, especially South Beach. You can walk to the Miami Beach Botanical Garden in 8 minutes and Lummus Park in 21 minutes, both perfect for a morning stroll. For downtown Miami attractions like Jungle Island (4.7 km), Miami Children's Museum (4.9 km), and Pérez Art Museum Miami (5.8 km), you'll need a short drive or transit ride. The Metrobus stops nearby, and ride-hailing is a simple option for those longer trips. From here, you can easily set out on city tours like the Miami Millionaires Sightseeing Cruise or a Little Havana Food and Walking Tour.
