Perfect for what we needed

Very clean, great view and the updates and price was better than a room through the hotel especially with the parking space included. A basic hotel room setup which was all we needed for a few days’ visit. Would stay again!

Hidden Gem!

Loved our stay in Coconut Grove! The room was perfect! Had everything we needed for a wonderful stay! Coffee on the terrace overlooking the marina and pool was gorgeous. Room and facility were clean, quiet and relaxed. Pool was awesome! Walking distance to restaurants, shops, park and marina were icing on the cake. Hosts were very attentive. Looking forward to next year!

Horrible communication with passive attitudes

I have so much I could say about the lack of respect these people have for their paying customers but I will try to keep this as short as possible. Communication sucks, as in they aren’t great with answering calls(we met others with this problem while waiting in the lobby for hours), text when they want and they have this horrible game of telephone with their workers. I truly don’t know where the breakdown in communication was, but as a paying customer from out of town, that was the least of my concern. I just wanted them to get it right. We missed time with family and friends from all over the country because they literally told me Kat would be down to speak with us in a few minutes. Almost 2 hours later kat strolls out the elevator barely muttering the words “I’m sorry” audibly from her lips and like a run on sentence proceeds to ask me how are we going to pay the rest of the fee whilst holding out her hand for me to shake. I politely declined her handshake. Also to add, they do payment a different way than Vrbo that I’ve never experienced before, where they wanted you to go on this website and pay the rest because they took 30% upfront and then 70% after arrival. After being there for hrs waiting on kat to come and speak with us because we needed to know whether we needed to make different arrangements because I did not have the physical card present, which was a part of the requirement. *I cannot post the rest bc of limitations. I’ll try though bc it gets more interesting

Thank you for your feedback, Denesia. We are always open to hearing from our guests and take all comments seriously to improve our services. We acknowledge that our response time was slower than usual due to a high volume of messages and calls, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this caused. However, it’s important to emphasize that we treat all guests with respect and expect the same in return. Unfortunately, the interactions you had with our team were extremely distressing, to the point that a member of our staff was brought to tears by the manner in which they were spoken to, by you. We ask that all communication remains courteous so we can work together to resolve any concerns effectively. Regarding the check-in process, we clearly outline that check-in begins at 4 PM and that early check-ins are not guaranteed. Guests are welcome to store their luggage at the front desk and enjoy the building’s amenities if arriving early. Additionally, it is standard policy that if the original payment card is not presented, we must verify a new card to ensure payment security. This is communicated in advance, and we make every effort to assist guests in completing this process smoothly. We strive to create a positive experience for all guests and staff, and we regret that this situation was not up to your expectations. We appreciate your feedback and will continue to work on improving our processes.

About the host

Hosted by Natalia & Silvia

Host profile image
After having lived all over the world across four different continents, my husband and I decided to return to Miami, a city we have always loved. We came here to rent out luxury apartments with the "boutique" flavor that defines us. Personally, I am an avid traveler and enjoy decorating, cooking ethnic food and meeting like-minded people. I have used VRBO abroad and I want to offer my guests a real “home away from home” experience.

Silvia is critical to our success. She oversees bookings and leads the customer service side of the business. Together with the on-site manager she routinely delivers the best experience for our clients.

We started off as property owners and from the beginning, we have helped investors manage their apartments, always in authorized buildings and in accordance with county and state laws. I hold a Master in Tourism Administration and an Interior Designing degree. My husband is a Ph. D, an MBA, and a Florida Licensed Real Estate Broker, and together we

Why they chose this property

Awesome Place. The apartment is very well equipped and furnished by owner, an interior designer. We love what we do and it shows in every aspect: cleanliness, decoration with original paintings, full service, extras (wine waiting for you upon arrival). Yes, our apartment is very well equipped.

What makes this property unique

Miami’s weather is pleasant all year round, which allows people like us to enjoy the city’s incredible range of activities. From outdoor sports, to a vibrant art and design community, to performing arts and events of all kinds, Miami has never been more busy and sophisticated. We also appreciate the different cultures which, among other things, are to credit for its rich gastronomical selection.
