How very refreshing to find a modern yet art deco style hotel that marries both influences very well indeed. Stayed in Penthouse 11. It was lush, the room gleamed from cleanliness and the bed was amazing. Walk in rainfall shower was excellent and the products were lush too. Staff were so friendly and they let us check in 3 hours... More

We just stayed @ Breakwater for 4 nights for our wedding anniversary, and it was absolutely fantastic from start to finish! The Front Desk ladies-Marisol & Ana were very helpful, accomodating, warm & friendly. Ronny was also very helpful & cordial, always asking us if we need a taxi or need help where we're going. Our Jr Suite w/ocean view... More

So yes. All the other reviews are correct. The hotel is next to an outdoor club of sorts and they play music pretty loud...most of the night. If you're looking for quiet, this is not the place. HOWEVER, the hotel is beautiful and clean, the staff is great, and the location is fabulous. If you want to stay IN South... More

Upon check in she placed me in a nice room, they really aren't that loud, come on your in south beach what do you expect.... More

OMG!!! I am writing this at 1:30 am because the noise outside is so loud there is no way I can sleep. Some trip advisor comments mentioned "quiet" rooms which I would have requested had I known.

We recently stayed here for 4 days and it was an excellent experience that I would highly recommend to anybody. Upon our arrival we had staff greet us and provided us with a room even though we were a couple of hours early before check in time.

We did not stay here but did stop for breakfast after a lovely stroll. It was very tasty and portions were ample. Yummy! My husband has just announced we are going back for breakfast tomorrow again. Sitting on the pavement/sidewalk was an experience and I loved seeing the world go by, with all the characters and different modes of transport,... More
