The hype
Guests love the modern, spacious rooms and pool scene but absolutely loathe the elevator wait times and surprise fees.
HYDE Beach House Apartments
$250-450 / nacht
Boek dit als You want a Miami-style condo party vibe with a full kitchen and laundry, but don't mind walking across the street to the beach.
Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Spacious apartment-style layouts with full kitchens
- Rooftop pool with killer Intracoastal sunset views
- In-unit washer/dryers (a lifesaver for families)
Snel Overzicht: A high-gloss condo complex masquerading as a hotel, where the fees are high, the elevators are slow, and the housekeeping is non-existent unless you pay extra.
Beoordeeld door @thecuestaexperience: I stayed here with the family and honestly, having a full apartment instead of a tiny room changed everything. The kids loved the pool, I loved the balcony views, and the kitchen was a lifesaver. Highly recommend for a stress-free trip.

Reality check
The 'resort' feel dissolves when you're standing in a wet swimsuit for 20 minutes waiting for an elevator that's too full to board.
- You're a group of friends or a family needing separate bedrooms and a kitchen
- You plan to stay for 5+ days (amortizing that cleaning fee)
- You prefer pool parties and sunset drinks over quiet library vibes
Schoonmaak & Onderhoud
7.8
- Housekeeping: Non-existent during stay unless paid for. Exit cleaning is usually thorough, but missed spots under beds are common.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally good, though recent reviews (late 2024/2025) have mentioned mold in grout and occasional drain odors.
- Maintenance: Wear and tear is showing. Scuffed walls and chipped furniture are frequently reported.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality. Not luxury, but clean. Getting extra towels can be a battle.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells heavily perfumed (signature scent). Hallways can sometimes smell like trash if the chute is backed up.

Voordat je boekt
Goed om te weten
- Valet is the ONLY parking option (~$42/night); there is no self-park.
- You get 2 beach chairs and 1 umbrella included with the resort fee, but you have to walk to the partner property to get them.
- Check-in is at 4pm and they are strict about it; early check-in often incurs a fee.
Wat je mee moet nemen
- Dishwasher pods and laundry detergent (starter pack provided, but it runs out fast)
- Extra beach towels (getting fresh ones can be a hassle)
- Patience for the elevators
Kamer Genie
Beste keuzes
- High floor (20+) Intracoastal View: Stunning sunset views and less road noise than the ocean side.
- Corner Suites: Wrap-around balconies offer the best of both water views.
Kamers om te vermijden
- Low floors (under 10) facing Ocean Drive: Noisy traffic and blocked views.
- Rooms near the elevator bank: Constant dinging and foot traffic.

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is it actually on the beach?
No. It is across the street on the Intracoastal side. You walk ~5 minutes or take a shuttle to the beach club.
Is housekeeping included?
No. There is a mandatory 'cleaning fee' (approx $130-$220) charged per stay for exit cleaning. Daily cleaning costs extra.
Are pets allowed?
No. The resort is strictly pet-free, with exceptions only for documented service animals.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, there are two infinity-edge pools (one rooftop, one lower) and they are heated.
Can I walk to restaurants?
Yes, there are a few spots nearby, but you'll likely want to Uber to the Hollywood Broadwalk for more options.
How bad are the elevators really?
Bad. During holidays and weekends, wait times of 15-20 minutes are common. Plan accordingly.
Tips van Insiders
- ✨
The 'Sports Club' on the amenity deck has tennis and basketball courts—bring your own gear just in case.
- ✨
Walk to the Walmart Supercenter (about 10 mins) to stock your kitchen instead of paying hotel prices for snacks.
- ✨
The shuttle to the beach is often slower than walking; just cross at the light and head to the Hyde Resort.
5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat
💡The 'Resort Fee' pays for amenities at a *different* hotel (Hyde Resort) across the street.
💡The sofa beds are notoriously uncomfortable—thin mattresses on metal bars.
💡You might get a unit owned by a private investor, meaning decor and maintenance can vary slightly from the photos.
💡The AC motion sensors can turn off while you sleep, leading to a warm room at 3am.
💡Delivery drivers (UberEats) often can't come up to the room, so you'll be riding that slow elevator down to the lobby to get your food.
