The hype
Families love the extra space and two bathrooms, but everyone hates the slow elevators and lack of nearby food.
Grand Beach Hotel Miami Beach
$200-450/ νύχτα
Κρατήστε αυτό αν You're a family who needs two bathrooms and a separate living room without paying South Beach prices.
Γιατί Το Αγαπούν
- Standard suites have two full bathrooms (a rare unicorn in Miami)
- Three pools, including a 7th-floor adults-only sanctuary
- Direct beach access with loungers and umbrellas included in the resort fee
Γρήγορη Ματιά: A spacious, family-friendly fortress in a dining desert where the elevators might test your sanity.
Αξιολόγηση από @tillystravellingtable: I was obsessed with how bright and airy this suite felt! The all-white decor really makes the turquoise ocean pop. Spending my mornings on that balcony watching the waves was the highlight of my Miami trip. It’s the perfect spot if you want that clean, aesthetic vibe.

Reality check
The 'Sunset View' is code for 'Street View' — book Ocean View if you want actual peace.
- You are traveling with teenagers who hog the bathroom
- You want a pool scene that separates screaming kids from day-drinking adults
- You plan to use the free Miami Beach trolley to get around
Καθαριότητα & Συντήρηση
7.8
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though some reports of missed sand on floors.
- Bathroom hygiene: Grout and tiles are usually clean, but fixtures can feel dated and show wear.
- Maintenance: The biggest issue. Elevators break often, and some rooms have peeling paint or sticky balcony doors.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality; not luxury, but clean and plentiful.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells fresh (signature scent), but some hallways can smell musty or like damp carpet.

The 7th-floor 'Tranquility Pool' has two hot tubs and is strictly 18+ — the best spot for sunset without the noise.

Walk 10-15 minutes north to 41st Street for a kosher grocery store and cheaper dining options.

The 'Sunset View' rooms often have a better view of the bay fireworks on holidays, despite the traffic noise.
5 πράγματα που πρέπει να ξέρετε πριν φύγετε
💡The 'two bathrooms' in standard suites are often one full bath and one half-bath (or shower-only), but still a game changer.
💡The elevators are a known choke point; allow 10 extra minutes to get downstairs during checkout.
💡There is zero nightlife immediately around the hotel; you are on 'Millionaire's Row' which is residential.
💡The mattresses are polarizingly soft — great if you like sinking in, terrible if you have a bad back.
💡You can sometimes spot manatees in the bay if you have a high-floor Sunset View room.
