Miami Beach resorts

Pros: One of the nicest hotels I've stayed at, clean and comfortable, although definitely pricey. Rooms are huge and designed to minimize noise and optimize comfort. There are lovely surprises, like a washer-dryer and a fridge with real capacity .

Cons: I did not try the restaurant because I did not find the menu terribly appealing but the neighborhood had so many eating places, it was not a problem

Pros: fitness area

Pros: The entire staff was there to help with any need. We were flying back from Antigua but hope to stay there longer on our next trip.

Pros: Fitness classes and instructors!!!! Spa facilities and attendants- so nice, efficient and welcoming.

Cons: Restaurant- overpriced- ordinary. Could benefit from a new menu with nutritional content displayed to aid diners. Sadly not all the spa treatments were available during my stay.

Pros: Mostly every thing. The view from our balcony was amazing. The swimming pool and the beach side were convenient. The gym was great and the SPA was incredible. I will come back again.

Cons: The parking is so expensive (40$ per night). I parked just outside the hotel cross the street ~2$/2hrs (it's free 8 pm-8am). One of the coffee shop workers was not friendly when I asked what type of milkshakes they have. THe milkshakes and the coffee are not good for 5 stars resort. For some reason, it's so windy just outside the hotel comparing to the south beach side.

Pros: Nice tranquil feel. Best spa I have been to. Staff excellent.

Pros: Variety of fitness classes and A++++ instructors. And the spa/gym/pool facilities.

Cons: Restaurant- overpriced- lacked a spa menu selection with nutricional values

Pros: This was formerly canyon ranch. It has all the amenities of canyon ranch with the location on the beach! Could not be better. Fitness instructors excellent

Cons: Teacher of strength class paid more attention to timing the segments than correcting our form

Pros: Common area tired. Rooms great.

Cons: The service at front desk so slow. They seem to always have front desk problems. I have been coming here for over 10 year. Different from Canyon Ranch Days

Pros: Fantastic location, outstanding fitness center, a huge selection of fitness classes, big rooms, right next to the ocean, room with ocean view, three pools, friendly stuff, that says it all!

Cons: The restaurant was much too expensive for just average food, portions were rather small. Otherwise no complaints. Great hotel!

Pros: I go to this hotel for its fantastic spa treatments and excellent therapists. I enjoy particularly the anti-aging facials, Himalayan stone treatment, body scrubs and deep tissue massage. In addition there is a salon for haircuts and wonderful manicures and pedicures. I have been a frequent guest since 2014 and I know many of the staff. It’s nice to be greeted by familiar people.

Cons: The food at the restaurant is good but not exceptional and fairly expensive A gratuity of 18% is added automatically. The service is usually good, yet I prefer deciding how much I tip.

Pros: The spa is fantastic, all massage therapists I had were excellent. The beach is spectacular. The menu for vegans and vegetarians was poor especially considering it was a health resort but the fried artichoke hearts were delicious.

Cons: The menu at the restaurant had few options for vegetarians. Not 1 salad filled with vegetables. They all had fruit or meat in them. I ate elsewhere during my stay.

Pros: Rooftop

Cons: Outside pool was not too appealing

Pros: Great location in SoBe, a lot of good restaurants nearby. Easy walk to the beach. Generally very friendly staff and spacious rooms. Everything was clean and the roof top pool is great. We really enjoyed our stay!

Cons: The hotel doesn’t have a gym and no onsite breakfast or lunch, nor afternoon snacks. The additional resort fee of $30/person/day feels too high for just a pool.

Cons: asked for a room with a better view and they did not accomodate us

Pros: Convenient location, clean and pet friendly hotel

Pros: larger than average rooms and nice pool.

Cons: Not letting us check in earlier nor check out later when the hotel wasn’t fully booked

Pros: Super clean! This locations is awesome for those wanting to be around the beach, shopping, and dining. I will return here for sure.

Cons: no

Pros: None

Cons: There is no deadbolt lock or latches or anything secure on the door to prevent people from entering my room. Outside this unsecured front door, the exterior corridor leads to the street. The hotel isn't in a very safe neighborhood. A Motel NOT 5star hotel

Pros: I enjoyed the private suite room and the evening cocktail hour.

Cons: I feel that the resort fee should be applied only if you opt into usage of the amenities that is applicable to the fee.

Pros: the attention in the restaurant was the worst of all, too late, expensive and with a bad face of the staff

Cons: the attention and attitude of the staff was unfriendly and they did not make us feel like guests who pay for a good service on the contrary the deal was bothering us with our presence.

Pros: The hotel staff was great! We were upgraded for my birthday and had a fabulous three story bungalow which was a nice birthday surprise!

Cons: At breakfast, we were waited on by an inexperienced waitress and, they said they had no sausage (on menu), the Chef did not know how to do basted eggs and waitress slid toast off the plate when served, amongst other issues.

Pros: Hello, Didn’t know about the resort fee, which we have been told until check out. It would be also helpful to know how much is the valet parking ahead of time, no information on hotel website. We were also told by valet attendees it’s cheap

Cons: In overall we enjoyed our stay, the room was in modern style, spacious, hotel staff was very pleasant. Wine tasting was a nice touch as well ice water and coffee in the morning.

Cons: The was no pool staff no pool towels at the pool no Brady were service anything by the pool

Pros: On the beach clean facility clean rooms

Cons: Parking fee and construction

Pros: Freindly hotel staff. Good lcoation with a short way to the beach only. Nice kitchen equipement (everything you Need)

Cons: the sound from the street is loud duirng the night, next time a room to the backside of teh buildingw ould be better

Pros: Great helpful staff, great for families

Pros: The staff was friendly and polite.

Cons: the location wasn't exactly on the beach shore as I expected, the room and decor were not up to date. The overall experience was rundown.

Pros: The Westgate is convenient to the beach, boardwalk and bike path and it had a heated pool so those are a plus but for the cost we could have done much better.

Cons: It is in an older building that they tried to update but you can feel the warped floors under the carpet. One of the main issues was noise. You can hear everything from the rooms around you. The first two days we told the front desk about the banging and loud footsteps from the room above us and they said they would talk to those guests. Then we realized they were not really doing anything other than just walking and closing doors. We felt bad because we probably were bothering them with our moderate volume TV. Next is parking. It costs $42 a day to park with them. When we checked in I asked about self parking and was told they had none. I was told there is metered parking but body language and tone made me feel like that would be risky so we opted for them to park our car. If we had known about that additional cost we would have stayed somewhere else. Also we were told to call down 10 -15 min before we needed our car. Turned out to be closer to 20 - 25 minutes. Last is that it is a timeshare and since we are not owners, everything cost more. We felt pressured for the first few days to attend their briefing even though we said no several times. Eventually they did stop asking.

Pros: Love the kitchenette and the separate living space nice size rooms

Cons: The mattresses not so comfortable

Pros: Nothing

Pros: The hotel was beautiful and on the beach!!

Cons: I did not like that they do not have an early check in. I realized that this is because they make you wait and then try to get you to do a timeshare tour. I did not appreciate that at all....

Pros: This was a great resort. ALL of the staff were friendly and helpful and we were always greeted with a smile! Already talking about visiting again.

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: The location was great! It was convenient and we had a giant room. Very spacious. Everyone was nice and accommodating.

Cons: It wasn't as clean and luxurious as most 4 star hotels. Definitely more of a family hotel. Not as nice of a pool as the other similarly rated hotels and not as many amenities.

Pros: We had a blast and this property was a great location. So friendly and great accommodations. No complaints at alll

Cons: Nothing.

Cons: Place is run down, Carpet smells. Not worth the money.

Pros: The ladies at reception were very nice and helpful, they even called to make sure everything was okay with the room once I got upstairs. The resort was clean and so was my room, would definitely stay here again

Pros: Close to beach

Cons: The hotel bar closed at 7:00 pm! I would have thought since it is Miami Beach, it would stay open longer. They did not have any soda beverage machines and not a place to order food late nite.

Pros: My reservation wasn't at the desk , it took me 30 minutes to check in.The key to the room they issued didn't work . I went up and down to the lobby 3 times for a new key before the maintenance man opened my room . II took 1 hour . staff was rude

Pros: Pool

Cons: Max people allowed for a family of 5 with children only allowed 4 people to stay in room. Not accommodating for family occupants

Pros: Place was clean. The bathroom said it was a little odd with the sink outside of bathroom and no countertop. Staff was not as accommodating as they could've been. Front desk female staff member could have been much friendlier

Pros: Location

Cons: Rooms small and dated. Everything expensive. Overpriced.

Pros: Beautiful room, pool, boardwalk and beach access

Cons: Dining options and no room service. Used Uber eats.

Pros: The view was amazing and the bathroom

Pros: Excellent hotel. We had moved from another hotel as we were very dissatisfied and Riu were really fabulous at accommodating us. The hotel staff including the receptionists, the cleaners, the restaurant staff, the staff in the Alligator bar and the towel guys were always cheerful and friendly. All staff were professional. We loved the beach area and the pool was perfect. The food was very good with lots of choice.

Cons: We weren’t too keen on the bathroom door being a glass door that didn’t actually close shut.

Pros: Confort

Pros: The setting is gorgeous. The car jockeys were much friendlier than any other staff member we dealt with except the guys at the pool. The concierge was decent but didn’t know as much about Miami proper. Initially we were put in a room with a non functional TV. When I called, they said that it could take weeks to fix. So we changed rooms (after we had unpacked of course) but they had no intention of helping us with the move. In the new room we had constant problems with cooling. The staff’s English is passable but I could not have a detailed conversation with anyone due to the language barrier. Bottom line: I felt like we were in Cuba and not the states. However, it was beautiful, we had a good time outside the problems. I would return here but I will brush up on my Spanish!

Cons: Most of the staff were unfeeling, chose not to smile or empathize with our problems. No one apologized for difficulties. I was finally asked if I would like to talk to the manager but we had a plane to catch.

Pros: Pool and beach, location on the boardwalk, alligator bar and restaurant were excellent.

Cons: Noisy street below my window and some noisy guests on my floor. Long waits for the elevator in the morning.

Pros: The Location was great. The Staff were helpful and friendly. The room was clean comfortable and had all we needed.There was even a roof top balcony that looked out to the sea

Cons: First Impression. The Outside of Hotel is being renovated and is covered in scaffolding.

Pros: I liked everything about this accommodation. We weren't to check in until 4pm and got to the hotel early after our cruise. We got a check in early. The accommodation exceeded our expectations, or was beautiful (we had a suite). 3 minute watch to the fabulous South Beach. Also the roof top Terrence was great.

Cons: Unfortunately they didn't do food.

Pros: The property was under renovation when we arrived such a shame as the roof top terrace wasn't there anymore I bet it would have been a nice view. This was the second hotel we stayed in Miami, part of the art deco but again, a shame we couldn't see it properly due to renovations. It is a nice aparthotel room,staff were friendly and attentive we appreciate that . The room was quite big no breakfast but plenty of options around. We rented a car and arranged for the car park ourselves at a garage 1 block away. The beach is across the Street.Thanks We liked the fact that we were able to sleep considering how busy Ocean Drive can be, it wasn't noisy at all but the hotel was located in a more quiet area on Ocean Drive.All staff members chatty and friendly

Cons: Not been able to sit on the terrace and the front doesn't look like all the other hotels on Ocean Drive due to renovations (we have been told about this but unfortunately we booked this hotel last year in June when there were no renovations).I must say I wish I could see it nicely painted. Another time maybe.

Pros: Everything! The staff the manager everything! I love this place. Wouldn't want to stay anywhere else. It gives you a new but real Miami feel. The kitchen Is huge! Bed super comfy extra spacious! I love it!

Pros: Comfy bed. Great location.

Pros: Excellent location Very friendly receptionists (although visibly tired) Room was large enough Decent kitchen facilities

Cons: We were there Mon-Sat. The room was cleaned up exactly 0 times. Zero! The litter piled up in the bin. Towels were not changed even once, from Mon to Sat The "concierge" is very aggressive in selling unwanted services. But the worst thing was the "renovation" of the hotel exterior. According to pictures in Google StreetView, it's going at least since May (we were there end of August). Every single day the workers were hammering and drilling and smashing at any time of day. Their favorite time seems to be early afternoon, when people take rest after lunch.
