Great Stay on Ocean

Arrived early which cause a slight hiccup because room was not fully clean but the owner Val was very attentive when called someone was at the door within 15 minutes. Bed & sleeper sofa slept very comfortably, a/c was awesome & even though the shower was awkward at first the temperature of the water was the best I've seen in any hotel or rental. Balcony was very relaxing even though there wasn't much of a view. Overall good stay but it's the Congress & has a rooftop pool what more can I say.

Great Location just unfortunate events

Started off getting booked into the wrong room, then the elevators were out all week, and the WiFi didn’t work. But the place itself was super nice and tidy and smelled great. I understand accidents happen so even though all that occurred, I would definitely stay here again.

Celebration

Everything was good. Being on Ocean Drive, walking to a lot of places to eat was great. We did rent a car and drove to the Keys for a day which was a bucket list item. We enjoyed the placement of this property closer to the alley as it was not as loud while the partying was happening on the main scene. The roof top pool was a good deal as well. Awesome views, bar, and heated. Sometimes can get windy up there due to the ocean breeze, but we couldn't have picked a better time of the year to visit. Great Weather, good vibes and great food!

This is a hidden gem.. its perfectly located in the center of ocean drive. The ocean is right across the the street. Resturant/Bars/Shopping are all within walking distance. The balacony is great. You can hear the wave crashing the shore. The unit itself was clean and eveything was intact and even more helpful that was was a kitchen. The pool has absolutely stunning views. This condo was PERFECT could not have asked for a better place to stay. The owners are very accommodating. They are easy to get a hold of and super nice.

June stay

Had a great time. Pool was 2 buildings next door. Could of used a dustpan. Could not access any floor without your card, so security was good. Couldnt find access or where to go upon arrival, but someone from restaurant guided us within minutes. Definately needed a couple of doormats! Lighting from garage was bright. Wish they had darker blinds. Overall, we had a blast!

Do not rent this place

First- suite was in different building, facing multiple floors parking lot and smelling back alley. Constantly noise from car alarms, garbage tracks and noise from drank people.The host - Rob was very rude person, do not expect any help from him. Were we stay the building did not have the pool as it show in the picture and the suite did not have any or ocean view. The air condition in suite was cover with black mold/ dust. Forget about parking , you are in your own, there is no parking and the valet parking in front the building is very expensive. Very bad experience, do not book this property.

Best Value on Ocean Drive - Excellent Stay

My friends and I went down to South Beach to relax and have a great time. We stayed on Ocean Drive because we decided we wanted to be located right on the beach. We could not have asked for anything more. Best value and nice clean place. Val's condo was no only right on Ocean Dr, but right in the heart of all of the action. Everything about the room was what we had expected and the roof top pool was nothing less than spectacular. As soon as we walked out the front of the unit we were where all the action is on Ocean Dr. All the great restaurants, stores and clubs were well within walking distance of the condo; which made it very easy to get around without a taxi cab, Uber, etc. The tough choices were whether we were going to swim in the warm and clear ocean, or go to the roof top pool to swim and relax - because the review was so great. The condo also had everything that we needed in it. There was even a kitchenette that had a stove top, fridg/freezer, dishwasher, and microwave oven. So we were able to warm up our left overs whenever we came back with food from any restaurants. The room was definitely large enough to sleep 4 people with its king size bed and sofa sleeper. There was also a large tub and shower in which to relax in after a hard day of partying and going out. The only difficult part was having to leave after only staying in South Beach for a few days. I will definitely be calling Val back again to stay at his unit in the future. My friends and I could not have asked for more when we decided to rent this condo out for out short vacation and time off from work. Also, we could not have asked for better weather than we got. Pure sunshine the whole time which made it the perfect time in South Beach.

Not as expected

If you’re looking for a quiet getaway for rest and relaxing on the beach, this is NOT the place for you! My husband and I had no clue about the atmosphere and clientele of Miami Beach. This place is a 24/7 loud and drunken party scene which was not mentioned at all in the description of the condo or location. Luckily the condo we stayed in was at the back of the building the farthest away from the partying and we both brought good earplugs so we were able to sleep. We are not bar/party people. The condo itself was clean but needed some repairs. We couldn’t use the hand shower because the faucet was broken and the laminate flooring which looked new was poorly installed. Eating out in Miami Beach is horribly expensive so we decided to go grocery shopping and only eat out for one meal a day. Unfortunately the fully appointed kitchen was not so fully appointed. There was no cooking cutlery, no cutting board, no oven, no skillets, only two spatulas, two small sauce pans, a colander, a toaster and a small stock pot. When we asked for a broom or vacuum to sweep all the sand that we tracked in from the beach, the owner was extremely prompt in granting our request. We had a broom within a couple of hours which was wonderful! The staff came twice during our stay to give us fresh towels which was also nice. Good luck with parking! It’s also expensive. The cheapest was $20 a day without in/out privileges. So be prepared to park your car and walk every where. Had I known or been told in the description of the atmosphere of Miami Beach we probably would not have booked. Only after we booked did the owners tell us about the atmosphere and then the owners also said btw, they don’t give refunds which I thought was shady. The lack of an up front and honest description of the place is why I rated it as I did. I’m sure it’s a destination for some people that like to party, but it’s not for us.

It is not what it seems!

I will start with the positives, there is granite counter tops and all of the furniture you see in the pictures are in the room. Also Rob was  polite when I called. However,  I did not know there was more than one building and had I known I would have asked some questions. With that being said, the picture of the studio gives the illusion of a nice pristine room. However, the place is run down, the chain and the area around the door is rusted. The blinds are very worn dirty. The chairs at the table are split and need to be replaced. Our balcony has a view of the parking garage and wires toward the left and if u look to the right there is an ocean view in the distance. The chairs on the balcony needs to be replaced, the table is rusted on the top, and the wall is dirty and needs to be cleaned. The decorative pillows on the bed looks like they  have never been washed. As far as the roof top pool goes, it is not on the top of the building we stayed in. There is nowhere in the property description that states there is more than one building. We have to go back to the building where we checked in to go to the roof top. Upon entering the studio room, I called Kim to see if there were any other properties available because the room was not like the pictures. She said she didn't see any but I was welcome to call Val. Well, I called Val and explained to her what I wanted and why due to the room not looking as pristine as the pictures. She said " Well when you buy an inexpensive room you should not have high expectations. I told her that the money had nothing to do with it. We chose our stay based on the pictures and reviews. She then told me she wasn't going to go there and hung up after saying she was in a staff meeting. Val was very rude and assumed that I should be ok with where I am staying eventhough the room is run down and not what the pitcures showed. Be very aware that if u choose the studio property IT IS NOT WHAT IT SEEMS. My husband and I work hard for our money and we feel that we were lied to by not revealing that the property is run down and the roof top is not in our building and not stating that there is more than one building. Please see the June 2016 review Not what I expected based on rental description. It is spot on. I should have listened. The positive reviews must be from there other properties in the other buildings. I would have loved to upload the pictures I have.

Deceiving

We loved the location but we were expecting an ocean view as advertised and had a unit basically in the parking garage. Dishes were dirty. We were left a dirty sponge to wash dishes with. There werent enough dishes. (1 big plate, 1 small pllate for 4 people.) Old stuff was left in the freezer. Bedding for the futon smelt as though it was pulled off the couch and folded and put back in the closet without being washed. The room was never dark due to the parking garage. There were 2 black out blinds but that didn't help with the rest of the windows. The roof top pool is a bar that you have to buy drinks at. We were not told that. We were expecting to be able to go sit and have coffee in the morning over looking to ocean. The location was fenominal, the high light. If you like tatoos there is a very professional shop with great artists around the corner on 11th Street just before Collins. Long Island Tattoo.

Nightmare!!!!

Elevator was out of service. My sis was handicaped and host says i didnt tell him. Elevator had been out 6 days and we reserved months ago. He was only willing to upgrade us for $200, after saying he had no more rooms. Ended up getting a refund. Host was very rude. He also kept calling asking if we went up to the room after i said we didnt. Why would we go up 3 flights of stairs with luggage?

Location is good

This was my first VRBO experience. Check in at the hotel a block away was easy. This property is in the middle of the action. No vehicle necessary. It was superficial clean. A deck with a little table and two chairs with no view of anything but another building and parking garage. My coffee pot didn’t work and I received a new one the next day.Towels only were changed mid week. The garbage Shute is next to this unit so that was a plus. Of disappointment was the elevator not working my entire stay. Luckily I traveled light and am able to do stairs. I wish there was a full roll of paper towels and a box of tissues. These items I had to purchase myself. Overall experience was good.

So happy in Miami

First time for both of us in Miami Beach. Absolutely loved it. So full of life, amazing people, people enjoying themselves, great parties and music until late. The apartment was perfect. Such a great position, three houses away from Versace's Mansion. Facilities were great and we easily catered for ourselves when needed. We used Lyte and Uber'ed to and from Tbh Uber was cheaper. Thought that may be a little difficult on Ocean Drive - but not at all. Everyone really helpful. One of the best things was access to the Pool and Bar on top floor. It was brilliant and when tired of the beach we made our way there. The music all day was great, cool guy on the door took care of us, it was such an asset and we didn't realise how good it would be until we went there. To be honest this is a great place, thank you to the owners, we would love to come back

Was like daylight at night due to lights shining from adjacent parking garage.

Tried to contact #“David” no answer & voice mailbox was full. So we called the owner and he was rude. He showed no interest in trying to fix anything and acted bothered that we wanted black out blinds put up. . Black out blinds were in closet. Owner did nothing in the four days we were there to get them hung. When we Arrived and the AC was out. Had to open widows but no bug screens. Mosquito alley! Beware owner has other rooms in same building. The shower wand was disabled and rain shower had little water pressure. This is the first negative review I have made in all my years of Vrbo. Location was great as long as sleep is not a priority.
