Cardozo Hotel - South Beach

In 2019, owners Gloria and Emilio Estefan reintroduced a refined and contemporary Cardozo, while preserving the hotel's distinct style.

As a child, Gloria Estefan would visit South Beach with her family.  While sitting on a bench with her Grandfather, young Gloria pointed across the street at the Cardozo Hotel and said, "I am going to buy that hotel one day."

Today, her dream is a reality, as Cardozo is now owned by her and her husband, Emilio.  In 2019, they unveiled Cardozo South Beach as a refined and contemporary luxury boutique hotel, while maintaining the essence of the hotel she fell in love with as a child.

To help realize their dream, the Estefans have called upon, Benchmark, A Global Hospitality Company, to manage Cardozo as part of their Hotels & Resorts Collection.

Built in 1939 , the Cardozo Hotel was named after, Benjamin Cardozo, one of the first Jewish jurors appointed to the US Supreme Court.  Cardozo is part of the Art Deco District, recognized by the National Register of Historic Places.
