We stayed at SAanctuary South beach a couple of days ago and we must say that we had a great stay. The front desk was super friendly and tried to accomodate all our requests no matter how difficult. I know that this is a very small and Intimate hotel not for everyone if you are into the big hotels but... more

The staff is very friendly and courteous. The location is very good - just a very short walk to Lincoln Road and the Beach. The restaurant, Ola, is outstanding. The room itself was ok, but it looked a bit wornThe paint needed to be refreshed. We did notice a few bugs - not a very pleasant site first thing in... more

We had a great experience at the Sanctuary. We were looking for a small, quiet yet stylish hotel with a personal touch at walking distance of erverything South Beach has to offer, and that was exactly what we got. Our room was spacious and clean and the hotel staff helped us out in many ways, advising us about restaurants and... more

Nice designed small trendy and luxury hotel. Spacious rooms, with separate living and sleeping area. Very friendly staff and a nice bar and restaurant. Breakfast buffet is to small, but from the menu there is much to order. Rooftop pool is very small and there are not enough beds. The beach is 2 blocks walking and Ocean ave 4 blocks.... more

I recently traveled to South Beach with a friend from forever ago. Her pockets are deeper than mine and she is use to staying in really high priced, five star hotels. I couldn't afford to pay a lot for a weekend and almost cancelled our trip until I read about the Sanctuary and decided to book it. I really enjoyed... more

We booked this based on the value and location but I really didn't know what to expect. I usually only stay at the big chain hotels so I get a little nervous staying at hotels outside my usual habit. The outdoor seating for the restaurant and the facade make for a nice first impression when we arrived, and it gets... more

The Hotel and the Sanctuary team are just great. I spent two fabolous weeks in a very comfortable, clean, stylish and spacious room. The breakfast was very good. I really liked the rooftop pool. The management and the rest of the staff are very kind and helpful with your wishes. more

Location is the only good thing about this hotel. Everything else is just terrible!!! Rooms are not well mantained, not renovated, everything is falling apart inside, small bed, dirty old couch, dirty patio, view of a brick wall. Staff does not care, ignores all your complaints and advises you to settle it with the owner of your room ( since... more

Lovely location and a nice overall design, but the management is skimping on upkeep and it shows. The walls in our room were dirty and the wallpaper was ripped, there were water stains in the ceiling. The sofa was really dirty. There are a lot of windows in this hotel - on the stairways, in the elevators, etc - all... more
