The Deauville Hotel Pool

from $3,800.00

While shooting around vibrant Miami, I unexpectedly came upon the iconic Deauville Hotel. Built in 1957, this classic hotel, designed in the distinctive MiMo (Miami Modernist) architectural style, featured a sprawling, gigantic pool, a chic hair salon, a fully equipped radio station, and even an ice skating rink, making it a unique entertainment destination. Over the years, the hotel attracted a dazzling array of celebrities, including legends like Frank Sinatra, Tom Jones, Sammy Davis Jr., Joan Rivers, and Jerry Lewis. President John F. Kennedy also delivered a memorable speech here in 1961. However, what truly cemented the hotel’s place in history was the filming of the Beatles’ second 1964 performance on “The Ed Sullivan Show,” which took place in the hotel’s elegant Napoleon Ballroom. Unfortunately, after suffering significant damage from an electrical fire in 2017, the once-glorious hotel has been left abandoned and neglected. I particularly admired how the rich green of the surrounding palm trees perfectly mirrored the greenish tint of the standing water in the deserted pool. Regrettably, by the end of 2022, the Deauville Hotel was demolished after being imploded, erasing a significant piece of Miami’s cultural and architectural heritage.
