We arrived early in the morning in Miami and needed a place to store our luggage until check-in time. We were pleasantly surprised when we went into the office a little after 9 when they told us our room was ready for us and we could check in then!!! That made our day, because we were then able to get situated in our room, use their towels and beach chairs, and enjoy the entire day exploring Hollywood Beach while having a home base to go back to to change, use the bathroom, shower, whatever. It was amazing! The hotel itself is older (but clean), but the location and views made it so worth the money! The view out the front windows was the beautiful beach and ocean, while out the back windows we could see the waters of the Inter-coastal. It is also right on the boardwalk, so we could easily walk up and down the beach and visit all the shops and restaurants. When I asked about a late check-out, they said we could have up to 3 extra hours for a minimal fee per hour…. So great to not have to rush out of our room. We loved our stay at the Riptide!!

Overall, this hotel is very cute and in a great location. The TV in the room didn't work but by the time we figured it out it was late at night. The beds are hard, as are the pillows. Could use some updating there. The tiki bar while convenient, did not have a hard liquor license so it is beer and wine only. They made me a cranberry "vodka" wtih wine. Not very fabulous. The staff was super friendly which always makes up for most negatives for me. The view was gorgeous! We enjoyed sitting on the patio area and taking in the scenery.

This is the place to stay! They have live entertainment from 12:30 to 8:30 at night! It was the happening place but not over the top! What the pictures show is what it's like. The rooms are a little dated but we didn't stay in the room much! The bathroom was very small but we made do! Everyone was super helpful and nice!

this place had a great vibe, just what we were looking for. Live music and great food right outside our room, right across from the beach! The room itself was clean, but showing it's age. Coats of paint don't quite cover that! lol
Staff was friendly, they were flexible with our check in and out times to meet our schedule, the bar was lively and fun and location was amazing.

I wanted to stay close to the ocean, so the location worked out very well. The staff worked to help me overcome the detail I forgot when I was booking a hotel--that I preferred an elevator. Dragging suitcases up to the second floor would have been a grind, but fortunately the desk staff took care of it for me. A huge shout out of appreciation there!!
I enjoyed getting to see much of the Broadwalk. There was bicycle rental place relatively nearby. That was nice, an easy way to take more of the area in.
When we were there, a scheduled event was going on that attracted a rather large turnout. I liked the fact that the party-goers were not unruly, and that it wound up around 9:00 p.m., as we had a very early departure the following morning. I was pleased to be able to have a cocktail and supper while litstening to the live music.
We really liked our room. It was spacious, clean, and had a view of the ocean.
If you're checklist includes similar things, you'll be happy here.

What’s unique about this property is that they have Oscar. He made check in so easy and painless. He’s very welcoming and approachable. Very professional and thorough. The rooms are surprisingly big! Very clean. It seems like the way the rooms are set up, you get an amazing view no matter what room you get. Very awesome. Thank you Oscar!

The property is primarily a tiki bar with a mixed crowd. Music starts at 1230pm, ends atone 9pm. The office staff was very nice. We arrived 4 hours before check in following a cruise. She was able to store our luggage while we went out to the beach. The room was ready an hour before check in. The beach outside is really pretty. It's seriously right there. The area is really nice. Really, something for everyone. I loved exploring the area. They did get the room done an hour before check in, but it was not the Oceanview I had reserved. Not a big deal, we were only there one night. The room itself is tiny. The beds are cheap. The comforters had cigarette burns in them. There was someone else's hair on my sheets and in the shower. There was a layer of dust on top of the wicker furniture. The kitchen area had one very tiny sauce pan
The stove top appeared broken, but there was a hot plate in the cabinet I assume we would've been expected to use. The cleanliness was not where we would've liked so we didn't eat in the room at all. There also isn't really anywhere to eat. For a room with 2 queen beds there was a plastic patio table and one plastic patio chair pushed up along side the bed and wall. The bathroom is small. There was someone else soap gunk in the shower. There were pieces of trash under the bed. The bathroom door didn't close. The widows are ALL able to be seen into from other units or the bar. It did not feel safe being there alone with my young daughter alone.

Do not stay here if you mind music playing in the tiki bar starting at 11am until 9pm. It sounds like it is in your room.

Last minute booking. First time at the Riptide. Our room was in the south building first level. Will not do that again. The bar is right there! We would be fine with the second floor or north building. Building was dated, but it was OK. We had a good time with the bar and live music daily and will have no problem coming back.

The Riptide is a fantastic place to stay to be close to the beachfront and easy access to all the fun places!
Rooms are what I'd call 'vintage' - little on the older side. But the beachfront and Tiki bar well made up for it!

Outside of being right on the beach, live music right at your front door which ends at a reasonable time and walking distance to a lot of dinning options as well as at the hotel. Reminds me of Wildwood NJ!!

We loved the location of the property. We enjoyed the tiki bar, the music from 12-8. The beautiful sunrise every morning. It's a little worn out but we still very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely be back again. Definitely the hot spot

This is a quirky hotel (not for the faint of heart) The room although dated was clean and provided all amenities required.
The Tiki Bar, although fun, is not licensed for hard alcohol, so being charged $13 USD for a wine based margarita was laughable and not in a good way
