The Local House

Nice little hotel close to the beach and restaurants, the only issue the pool is 2-3 feet deep

close to the port.

From the warm welcome, to the friendly people at the bar, the service was a highlight. The rooms comfy, the rooftop a hidden gem, brunch and happy hour we kept coming back to. Also loved the partnerships for beach lounging and yoga classes. And location, of course. Can't think of anything.

Good

Our favorites were the beach access , roof top pool, and the smell as you enter the lobby! We need to know how to get that scent! The location was also very quiet and walkable to several nearby restaurants. We were sad to leave.

Amazing little hotel. Staff went above and beyond and were super organised. Lovely restaurant, beautiful room and ideal location for Miami Beach

Great place - close to the action without being right in the craziness of south beach. We liked taking walks down to the southern tip of Miami Beach near Smith & Wollensky’s - it’s a lot quieter there. We enjoyed brunch at the Local House two days in a row; our room was clean and spacious; and the rooftop pool was a nice getaway. I would stay here again.

Excellent location. We wanted to be close to main Ocean Drive area while prioritizing silence during night hours, because we went with a baby. And this hotel is exactly at that place. So, you'll enjoy main tourist area very close to you while at night you can rest comfortably without any noise close to the hotel. Room was big and very comfy, it made us feel at home. After 10PM, there's no one anymore in the hotel. Unfortunately, our flight delayed for 4 hours, so we arrived at 11PM. Hotel still contacted through phone/message to coordinate the late arrival. Instructions were clear regarding how to enter the building and enter the room. Still, I'm accustomed to hotels always having a reception, even after late hours. Overall, this is a minor thing that just impacted on arrival; hotel always made the best to ensure I would be able to enter building/room.

Beautiful boutique hotel with great location and the staff was amazing. The restaurant was delicious and charming Not a thing keep up the good work

Great location, walkable to beach and lots of restaurants. Friendly staff.

The rooms are bright, airy, and beautifully designed, with a calming beach‑house vibe that instantly puts you in vacation mode. Thoughtful details—plush bedding, spacious layouts, and serene color palettes—make it easy to unwind after a day in the sun. Many big hotels in Miami feel busy and loud, but The Local House offers something rare: peace. The rooftop pool is a standout. It’s intimate, quiet, and offers a perfect escape from the bustle of South Beach. Whether you’re lounging with a book or enjoying the skyline views, it feels like your own private oasis. And the restaurant—wow. The food is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Breakfast here is a must; the kind of meal that sets the tone for a perfect day. The cocktails are equally impressive, crafted with care and ideal for sipping on the terrace. Best of all, the location couldn’t be better. Steps from the beach, close to great dining and nightlife, yet tucked away enough to feel secluded. It’s the perfect balance.

Close proximity to the beach and lots of restaurants Pool could have been a bit bigger and maybe a bar at the pool.

Did not love the "security deposit" I had to pay at the beginning of my stay. It was refunded, but was I charged an extra $100 per night upfront, which added a level of unnecessary stress to my stay.
