I was just spoiled from the time I walked in ... It was right on the beach... not far from Miami nightlife.. I would recommend a cab when traveling down to Miami because there was never a parking spot. But the hotel had a hammock area and a vollyball area and a grill area but that was only open until... more

The 1 bedroom, (devided studio), although the smallest room was bright & comfortable & well equiped with every thing (or more) than you could need. The beds, even the pullout couch, were surprisingly comfortable. The property had an excellent upper patio/pool sundeck & and lower landscaped activity sund area that made you feel you were on an island. The staff,... more

The staff here was great. They were always attentive and prompt with any requests. The valet parking was nice and very reasonable ($3 a day for owners). They charge $2 a day for use of the safe which seems silly but wasn't a big charge so no big deal. The room was spacious and I never once heard anyone in... more

My husband spent several hours researching hotels for our first year anniversary trip. We've both been to Miami/South Beach a few times and stayed at some pricey hotels.

It offsets the mandatory safety deposit charge. We had a one bedroom with 1.5 bathrooms. The room was spacious, spotless and very well maintained. I... more

My husband and I took our 2 year old daughter here for a week stay. We chose this resort because we are BlueGreen owners and we wanted to go somewhere we hadn't been. We were unsure about the area with a young child. We were pleasantly surprised!! The people could not have been any more pleasant!! We were greeted warmly... more

We decided at a late notice that we needed to get away for our vacation. We were not very lucky when it came to choices of where to stay. We had decided that we were going to go w/ my husbands parents and use time share but all of our choices were already filled. The very last place that was... more

Firstly, I wanted too say that coming from Michigan and going to Florida, means I would be happy in a cardboard box for the warm weather, sunshine and ocean. I found the staff to be friendly, the location to be adequate and the view amazing. Having said that, I had issues with the following. First, the forced valet which resulted... more
