The Shelborne by Proper reopens after $100 million transformation

The Shelborne by Proper is officially now open following a $100 million transformation. Reimagined by ADC Atelier, The Shelborne By Proper stands at the heart of this stretch and at the head of its renaissance, offering a bold, new design perspective rooted in Miami Beach’s iconic past.

Originally opened in 1941, this iconic Miami Beach landmark has been completely reimagined for a new era, blending its storied Art Deco heritage with a fresh, modern tropical aesthetic. Located in the heart of Miami Beach on Collins Avenue, it’s already shaping up to be one of the hottest new spots to hit this season.

Key highlights:

Design-Forward Luxury: Led by ADC Atelier, the transformation pairs sculptural furniture, richly textured materials, and custom art installations with lush greenery and oceanfront views—creating a refined yet relaxed atmosphere throughout.
Pauline (Opening May 8): The hotel’s signature restaurant helmed by Michelin-starred chef Abram Bissell (Eleven Madison Park, NoMad) with a bold, seafood-forward menu drawing on Latin American and Caribbean flavors. Beverage director Christopher Lowder adds a world-class cocktail program. Reservations go live May 5.
Little Torch: An intimate cocktail bar offering tropical-inspired drinks in a cozy, design-centric space.
Sky Terrace & Pool Deck: A serene oasis anchored by a powder-blue Deco pool bar and surrounded by bespoke furnishings and tropical greenery.
Beach Club By Proper: Private cabanas, wellness experiences, and curated cultural events steps from the sand.

Proper Hotels just announced that all properties – including The Shelborne – are now 100% seed oil–free in partnership with Zero Acre Farms.
