    Best Day Ever!!!!!

    We got married at The Palms on March 10th and everything was magical! Barbara and her team blew us away. Every. single. staff member was amazing, from the front desk, to bellman, to valet, to the banquet staff. Barbara made planning our destination wedding so easy and stress free. I can not thank The Palms enough for giving us the best day ever!! If you're considering getting married here... DO IT! We can't wait to come back again and again :)

    Amazing! Highly recommend

    Our experience with The Palms Hotel and Spa as well as Vanessa and her team were none other than amazing. We had a full weekend of wedding events (Friday welcome
    Party, Saturday wedding, and Sunday farewell brunch) and for each step of the way for each event, they went above on beyond. The property is so naturally gorgeous and very much for our vibe of Caribbean meets Miami vice. 1000% recommend!

    "Unforgettable Wedding Experience at The Palms Hotel: A Perfect Day with Barbara's Exceptional Coordination"

    I recently had my wedding event at The Palms Hotel, and I cannot express enough how wonderful the experience was. Barbara, our wedding day coordinator, was an absolute gem. Throughout the months leading up to the wedding, she was incredibly patient and flexible, always accommodating my questions and changes with grace. Her responsiveness and sweetness truly made the planning process a breeze.

    On the day of the wedding, Barbara was a superstar. Everything ran flawlessly, and her attention to detail ensured that I was stress-free and able to fully enjoy every moment. The venue itself was breathtaking, effortlessly setting the perfect ambiance for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception.

    We were delighted with the getting ready room and our hotel accommodations, although I must mention that the closets were a bit small. However, this minor detail was quickly resolved with the help of one of my bridesmaids staying at the hotel who kindly offered a solution to store my dress in her room. Just a small consideration for brides-to-be: if you plan to keep your dress hidden from your partner before the ceremony, you might need to get creative with storage arrangements.

    Overall, the entire staff at The Palms Hotel went above and beyond to make our special day truly unforgettable. We are so grateful to have chosen such a beautiful venue and are thrilled with how everything turned out. If you're considering The Palms for your wedding or any event, I wholeheartedly recommend it. You won't be disappointed!

    Best Wedding Venue you could ever pick

    If you are planning a wedding, you must consider the Palms as your venue. The hotel is beautiful, the location is amazing and the best part is the staff. If you are a bride, especially planning on your own, The Palms staff will make your dreams come true with ease and you will not have to worry about anything the day of. They are the best team in town to help you create the event of your dreams. Organized, timely and very professional are among the incredible qualities that makes this team amazing. A special shot-out to Barbara, Vanessa and Ana for all their help and support during the planning process. The spa team was incredible the day of. I was very happy with my hair and make up. Thank you to all the team members that helped us move in and out all the decorations. The staff throughout is just great. Also, the food at this hotel is amazing. If you stay there, make sure to check out the restaurant, bar and maybe event in room dining. I had the best breakfast in my room the day of my wedding and the service was outstanding once again. Thank you!

    Dream Wedding

    Our wedding came out exactly like how we wanted. The Palms had made the entire planning process stress free for us. Vanessa was our catering manager and day of coordinator, she was fantastic! Vanessa answered all of our questions in a very responsive manner. The services and the result of our wedding was amazing. I recommend anyone that is planning to host their wedding in Miami to checkout The Palms.

    Amazing and Attentive

    From the beginning, Vanessa at the Palms was so incredibly responsive and attentive to any questions or requests that we had. They have a great list of recommended vendors and the entire wedding planning process could not have been more seamless. We had the most perfect wedding with the Palms and we 100% recommend this venue to everyone.

    Our dream wedding

    Our wedding was SENSATIONAL. Vanessa our wedding day coordinator and venue manager for our weekend was incredible. Our wedding ended up becoming a destination event for us as we relocated out of state. Vanessa answered all my questions promptly and helped us plan our wedding with ease. Our wedding weekend was a DREAM! Everything went incredible. I can't say enough amazing things about this venue. The staff was so helpful and sincere throughout our entire stay. The venue, the food, and everything was perfect and The Palms went above and beyond for us.

    Thank you for your kind words. You and Will were so great to work with. Wishing you both the absolute best.

    Best Decision Ever!

    WOW!! We recently had our wedding at The Palms Hotels and I could not have imagined a more perfect wedding weekend!! If you’re wondering if you should go with this venue I could not recommend it more!! The hotel itself is absolutely stunning and the service was amazing. Each of the guests remarked how whenever they needed anything at all someone was always there! Vanessa was our day of coordinator and she was PHENOMENAL!! She was extremely attentive leading up to the big day, always happy and eager to answer all of our questions! On the day of she ROCKED it, everything went sooo smoothly even when we had to make a last minute change due to weather. None of our guests were even aware a change was made because of how seamless and quickly the everything was carried out. I can truly say I had no worries at all on my wedding day because Vanessa was there every step of the way and made sure everything was perfect!! P.S. The food served at our wedding was completely DELICIOUS!!

    Best decision you will ever make!

    I chose The Palms Hotel & Spa for my wedding venue and it was the BEST decision I ever made. Every single detail exceeded my expectations, from the hotel service to the incredible events team. I'm from NYC and wanted a destination wedding in the carribean, but had to settle on Florida to ensure our older family members would be able to join us for our special day. The Palms Hotel is a hidden gem that transports you into a tropical paradise, while still having the benefits of city accessibility. The events team is second to none! Vanessa Oritz and her team were super organized, flexible and helped make every vision I had come to fruition. I highly recommend The Palms for weddings, events and even just a vacation! all my NYC guests are still raving about the weekend! Simply spectacular!

    Best wedding ever!

    We received several comments from our guests that it was the best wedding they had ever attended. We planned our Miami wedding from Ohio, and Vanessa couldn’t have been more helpful. We are extremely satisfied with our experience and wish we could do it all over again.

    Incredible venue and staff too!!

    My husband and I got married at the Palms Hotel & Spa on 9/2/23 and it was the best day ever! We had been in communication with Barbara, our day of coordinator for almost a year leading up to the event and she was incredible. She was timely with her responses and so very helpful. Anything we needed, she was able to assist us with. The venue itself was so beautiful and the staff who was there on the day of our wedding were very attentive. It was also great to have our family and friends stay at the same place that we got married at, this made it easy for everyone who traveled for our wedding. I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone considering it!!

    A Perfect Miami Beach Wedding at the Palms

    My wife and I recently got married and chose the The Palms Hotel in Miami Beach as our venue and we couldn't have been happier with how it turned out. We had a Welcome Dinner outside under the tiki huts that was perfect and we had our reception in one of the hotel ballrooms. Vanessa handled all of our vendors effortlessly. The food was excellent, the service was first class, and the experience was perfect. We also took advantage of the ocean view suite for our rehearsal and reception nights which is highly recommended!

    The Palms made our whole wedding experience unforgettable. We'll be back some day to stay again!

    The Palms is responsive, clean, and detail oriented.

    The Palms exceeded our expectation for our wedding day. Our wedding planner was kind, respectful, responsive, and truly cared about every detail on our wedding day. She took all the stress and pressure off of me for the entire experience. The resort is clean, beautiful, and truly feels like a tropical oasis in the heart of Miami Beach.

    Beautiful venue, great quality food, excellent communication with co-ordinator

    We fell in love with this venue through the photos alone and visiting it in person confirmed this for us.
    If you are wanting a tropical feel for your wedding then choose this venue
    The photos come out incredible.
    We wanted tropical theme but also ability to have beach photos, without having a beach wedding so it was perfect.
    The venue contacts Barbara and Vanessa are very attentive and communicate excellently.
    The venue is perfect to spend time with guests before and after the wedding, the pool and pool bar were used lots during our stay.
    The food and drinks are to an excellent standard also.
    Venue is a 10 min uber ride from Ocean Drive, which is close enough to where all the nightlife is
    Would recommend this venue to all

    The most amazing wedding we could have dreamed of!

    Having our wedding at The Palms Hotel & Spa was absolutely perfect and beyond anything we could’ve imagined for our special day. From the wedding coordinators, to hotel staff, and vendors, everything was superb and they provided excellent service. Barbara Penalver helped me to coordinate the big day and items leading up to it, and I cannot say enough amazing things about her. She is truly the sweetest and the best at what she does! If you’re looking for a great wedding venue in Miami Beach, look no further. The Palms is a gem in the middle of Collins Ave. and we can’t wait to go back and celebrate our anniversary! Thank you for making our wedding day one we’ll never forget!
