My 1st time in Miami and South beach was a great option. The hotel has an entrance to the beach, you don’t have to walk a lot, highly recommended. The room was great, at the property I chose beach view and it was worth it. For my mom & I (first timers) it was great because of its proximity to restaurants, coffee shops, beach, free stuff such as daily premium ice-cream, etc. The only thing that scared me was that at our 2nd day I got a 300 usd charge, later on hotel staff told me is the guarantee and they don’t charge it the 1st day (be aware) and for us, paying extra money for beach’s umbrellas is not common, but we paid 20 usd daily.
