  "Best of the Best"
  "Wonderful customer service. The lobby with its mirrors and shell-like chandeliers is magical. At check-in we were seated with a glass of champagne. Our room (#1906) was over 700 sq feet, with a 200 sq ft covered and furnished balcony. I loved the walk-in mirrored closet, and the bathroom was perfec..."tion -- separate sinks, deep soaking tub, large shower, perfect lighting. The pillows and Egyptian cotton sheets were top quality. Light weight duvet. Very quiet in the room. Electronic drapes and light switches. Security was very well done. Your key would only take you to your level.

I could live happily in the bathroom for the rest of my life with the floor to ceiling windows and ocean view. No smelly moldy carpets : the floors were wood! Other hotels can't do this because the construction is cheap and the sound without carpets will go through thin walls. I sat out on my terrace watching the ocean for breakfast a wonderful breeze. Food delicious. Room service in 20 min. The resturant has outdoor seating overlooking the ocean and an inlet for the million dollar yachts zooming by. The beach secure and secluded--I stayed at the Ritz Carlton South Beach and went out to the beach in the morning to find homeless bums still asleep. The city... " More >
