  • Is there a charge for using beach chairs and facilities

    Asked about: Double Room • Answered on February 6, 2020
  • Hi Do you provide early check in / late check out options? If not can you hold our luggage and can we use the pool etc? Thank you.
    Yes, we do provide early check-in / late check out upon availability. However, if the room is not yet ready we are happy to hold your luggage and you will be able to use all hotel amenities including beach services.
    Answered on January 28, 2021
  • When is the best time to visit your property for the perfect beach holiday?
    The answer is simply all year long! While many guests visit us in the winter months to escape the colder climate back home, Miami in the summer is just as wonderful to visit with exciting events like Swim Week, Miami Classical Musical Festival (we are the host hotel and our guests get to enjoy many classical and opera performances in June and July), Miami Spice and Miami Spa Month.
    Answered on January 3, 2020
  • Which rooms have direct access to the pool?
    Thank you for reaching out. None of the guestrooms have direct access to the pool physically. That being said, our 2 pools are accessible from all guestrooms on property.
    Answered on March 1, 2021
  • Are there any rooms for 2 people that has a balcony with ocean view? Thank you
    Thank you for reaching out. We do have balcony guest rooms, but not in this category with an ocean view.
