$170-320 / natt
Boka detta om You want a stylish, social South Beach crash pad with a killer rooftop pool that feels more expensive than it is.
Varför människor älskar det
- Rooftop pool deck with a genuine vibe and sunset views
- Complimentary wine hour daily from 5-6 PM
- Aesthetic Art Deco design that feels curated, not corporate
Snabb Överblick: A visually stunning hotel that struggles with thin walls and a humid climate—bring earplugs and keep the AC running.
Recenserat av @seth_and_sofia: I honestly didn't think I could find a South Beach hotel that felt this cool but was actually okay for my kids. The lobby art is stunning, the rooftop pool is a total vibe, and the room gave us plenty of space to just be ourselves. It felt like a real vacation.

Reality check
The 'beach access' is a bit of a trek and the chairs provided (via third-party) can be worn out.
- You prioritize a great pool scene and social vibe over total silence
- You want a boutique feel without the $500+ price tag
- You plan to be out exploring or partying most of the time
Renlighet & Underhåll
8
- Housekeeping: Generally good, but reports of missed days and late service (after 4pm) exist.
- Bathroom hygiene: Mostly clean, but watch out for mold/mildew due to the humidity issues.
- Maintenance: The dampness issue is a concern; look for swollen wood flooring or peeling paint.
- Linens & towels: Towels are standard hotel quality; linens are Egyptian cotton and comfortable.
- Odors & scents: Can smell musty/damp in some rooms if the AC hasn't been running hard.
