Dear Herman,

Thank you for your recent comments on your stay with us and thank your for being a loyal customer. Very happy to hear about your wonderful experience once again with us. I always tell corporate travelers that South Beach is a great alternative to Downtown. You can do your business during the day and relax on South Beach in the evening.

Hope to you back at the Z soon.

Take care,

Dear 5,

So nice to hear about your recent visit with us and your stay here at the Z.

I will ensure to pass the comments along to the team, especially Front Desk and Anna on the Pool Deck. It's very rewarding to know that we were gracious, attentive and accountable during your week visit.

As for your suggestion/tip your correct most restaurants and bars on the beach do automatically add gratuities to your bills so please always make sure to check before adding any extra gratuities to your servers.

Thanks again and hope to see you back with us soon.

Sincerely yours,


Frank Fuentes

“Wonderful Hotel Close Enough to All”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

Hotel is beautiful and has multiple conveniences. The onsite open air lobby bar has convenient hours, great food and drink specials and the bartender is an amazing mixologist. I didn’t use the pool because we had one of their penthouse suites with rooftop Jacuzzi but it looked very nice. The room itself was spacious and had little touches that made it very livable for our group of three. The location is right by the beach, has a 24 hour diner right across the street, and a corner store that’s also open 24 hours diagonal from the diner. You can walk to the hot spots nearby or take a cab for under $10. Vanessa and Staicy made our stay even more special; thank you ladies. My only recommendation would be that they should have the speakers closer to the Jacuzzi because on one occasion, the security, kind of rudely, asked us to turn down our music. The only reason it was a bit loud was because it is placed so far away from the Jacuzzi. It’s not like we weren’t on the floor where the only things there are Jacuzzi’s either. Besides the experience with the security our entire stay and every staff member was pleasurable.

Dear RowPersaud,

Thank you for your comments on your recent visit to the Z Ocean Hotel South Beach.

Very happy to read of your wonderful stay. My sincere apologies for your encounter with our security team and management has spoken to them in reference to how they approach guests. Thank you for your recommendation on moving speakers closer to hot tub, I agree if your going to take a soak in our hot tubs your on South Beach so crank it up!!! We are looking into replacing our hot tubs and I'll suggest perhaps looking into new ones which comes with built in waterproof speakers!!

Thanks again for visiting with us, hope to see you back here soon.

Sincerely yours,

“Excellent Hotel & Service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

Would definitely return again... Good location and easy access to the beach. Professional, friendly and helpful staff, from the front desk to the bellmen (including Domingo who was especailly helpful) to the valet parking attendants, they helped make the stay relaxing and pleasurable.

Room Tip: The 'street side' is a little more noisy at night regarding sleep.

“Boutique Chic”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

We stayed at The Z for the first leg of our Honeymoon after our gorgeous wedddibg in the UK. We checked in and decided to upgrade to the Penthouse Rooftop terrace - best move. We made our way upto PentHouse 25.
We was absolutley made up with our gorgeous room with chic boutique styling. It had a his and hers bathroom with Aveda products to use,massive gorgeous bed,plasma,sofa area,espresso coffee maker,hairdryer,iron,mini bar,glasses etc. The balcony looked out onto the pool area with a spiral staircase upto our own private rooftop with hot tub,double lounger, single loungers,table/chairs and fridge!!

Our terrace seemed like the best room in the whole of the hotel. We looked out onto the Atlantic Ocean and Ocean Drive - it really was perfection. We drank Mojito's watching the sun go down. A real escape from the crazy world that we live in.

The staff at the Z are also very helpful and nothing is too much trouble.

I would without a doubt stay here again on our next visit to Miami. It's not cheap but worth every penny for a taste of luxury.

Room Tip: PH 25 is good choice - at the back looking over ocean

Dear Leesa,

First let me start off by saying congratulations and thank you for that great review! I'm glad that you were able to experience so much of the Z Ocean Ocean during your honeymoon.

You did have on the few Rooftop Penthouses that we like to call the best of both worlds with both Ocean and City views. I'm glad that you found our staff accommodating and helpful towards your needs during your visit.

Hopefully you'll return on your first anniversary or sooner.....

Take care,
