It’s hard to believe that in March 1915, Miami Beach was only a blip on the international radar. But in true form, the city has seen exponential growth, pushing and sprawling its way into becoming one of the world’s top travel destinations and hubs for dining, arts, history, and culture.

In honor of the 100th anniversary, the iconic Fontainebleau {4441 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach; 305.538.2000} presents several special celebratory offerings that are available throughout the month of March.

At Bleau Bar, the hotel’s hopping central lobby bar, guests can sip on the aptly named American Riviera, a lavishly curated cocktail featuring Grand Marnier 100 Year, Jack Daniel’s Sinatra Select, and angostura and Peychaud’s bitters topped with Champagne.

At the acclaimed restaurant Michael Mina 74 (whose Chef de Cuisine Thomas Griese was recently named one of Zagat’s “30 under 30”), guests can celebrate the centennial in style with a three-course prix-fixe dinner for two for just $100.
