Sea View Hotel, Bal Harbour, On The Ocean

Overall the hotel is very good, and the staffs are helpful.

.

Clean and comfortable

Hotel was nice, Check in staff wasn't very friendly but the rest of the staff was. Food was good but restaurant didn't open till 7:30 AM. Kind of late for breakfast. Food was not cheap and drinks were expensive. Lastly was not happy with a $32 per night charge to park my car especially during their off season

We got in late. 12:30 am. Got checked in and were supposed to have a sea view room. Had a parking lot view. Went to desk and guy was great. Changed room for us but were charged an extra 111 bucks a day. I was fine with that but got bill and thought it would only be for 2 nights since we got there early am on Friday. Still a wonderful place to stay. Food and grocery store within walking distance. Oh and Starbucks too. Pool and beach chairs and staff were wonderful. Will be back. Maybe credit us $111 bucks for the sea view room. If not I will still be back. Thanks for everything.

The hotel is on the beach and it's easy to get a complimentary chair and umbrella from the staff. The hotel is across the street from the Bal Harbour Mall which has the most exclusive stores and some great restaurants. The staff is friendly. A good place if you want easy access to the beach in a moderately priced hotel. The rooms are clean but dated. The bar and restaurant are mediocre at best.

Good location and on the beach Staff was not attentive, we ask for a microwave and never got it, and we had to throw away all of our food. When we left the front desk attendant said that the manager would contact us and no one ever contacted us about our issue. Did not like the customer service, nor the dishonesty.

Beautiful place, clean, quiet, and excellent view and access to the beach.

Loved the place. Quiet & Cozy

Everything is nice there,I Will come more time! I love this place and everything there! Thank you so much

Awesome hotel close to the Bal harbour mall, super clean

Arrival was confusing. There was no clear self-parking or staff outside (valet/bellhop). The lobby was empty, but a staff member came out from a back room to the cute, dark-wood paneled counter. They told us we could park anywhere—no valet mentioned. Check-in was standard, but we weren't given any orientation. Aside from the Wi-Fi password, it would’ve been nice to know restaurant hours or gym locations as first-time guests. The room was quiet, comfortable, and featured a huge walk-in closet, great AC, and plenty of hot water. However, I’m very particular about cleanliness. The baseboards between the nightstand and bed were extremely dusty, and the shower grout needed a good scrubbing. The medicine cabinet mirror was also corroding around the edges. The location is amazing. Having coffee overlooking the Atlantic was incredibly relaxing. The beach experience was great, with chairs set up and ready for us. The hotel kindly gave us a late checkout, too. While ocean air makes maintenance tough, some areas showed blatant disrepair, especially the poolside cabana roofs. It has great bones and a nostalgic aesthetic, but needs some deep cleaning and maintenance. Still, for the price and location, I'm satisfied.

What a great historic hotel in the heart of one of the better, peaceful beaches in Miami. The hotel is such a gem and has so many lovely vintage charms. This was my second visit and I look forward to more in the future and recommending it to anyone visiting this part of Miami Beach! Great comfortable rooms, stellar pool (up to 9 feet!), right on the beach side with fantastic beach path for walks and biking, set back from the main road with plenty of parking and an easy drop off area, super quiet, and very friendly and helpful staff. Also a great price given the area right across from the poshy Bal Harbour Shops. I very highly recommend this hotel!

Staff so nice. We will be back 100%.

I was amazed how many people are repeating customers, and now I know why. Definitely will be back!

We loved everything! Will stay here again soon!

Walking distance to Bal Harbour shops , easy Beach access

Friendly staff!

Would like a quick brewed coffee in the morning without going to the restaurant

Loved this vintage gem! Never lose the charm. Very well taken care of, amazing room service, they change the sheets and towels every day. Beach was lovely.
