Beirut's coastline offers a mix of urban energy and Mediterranean calm, and a handful of beachfront hotels capture both. At the Kempinski Summerland Hotel & Resort, guests get a 5-star resort experience with a private beach, three outdoor pools (including the famous Cascade Waterfall), and a 2,000-square-meter spa. The Mövenpick Hotel Beirut, meanwhile, provides direct beach access, five restaurants, and a serene spa, all just 10 km from the airport. Both properties are ideal for travelers who want to combine city sightseeing with sunbathing.
For a more compact option, the Riviera Hotel and Beach Lounge sits on the Corniche, offering a private beach area, four pools, and a family-friendly vibe. It's a 5-minute drive from Zeitouna Bay and Beirut Souks, making it a practical base for shopping and nightlife. Rates for these beachfront hotels typically range from $150 to $350 per night, depending on season and room type. Booking in advance, especially for summer months, ensures better availability and rates.
