We relocated to Miami Beach and were fortunate enough to find this amazing property. One block from the beautiful bay and two over to Lincoln Road, where you’ll find the best shopping and great restaurants. The apartment decor is perfect and John and Bill, the most gracious hosts, have left nothing out. They even have a personalized guide book to let you know how the washing machine runs to restaurant tips. If you are looking for a place, look know further! The Fontana will always have a special place in our heart.

My wife and I recently stayed at this property and had two of our friends stay in another unit in the same building. (We asked the owners who hooked us up with another owner in the same building). If you are travelling with a group more than 3, it is a great idea to do this. The unit and building are truly remarkable, in fact, this was our 11th time staying in this unit. We have no reason to look elsewhere in Miami because it really has everything you need. From details such as an ice maker, to laundry, salt, pepper, olive oil, and other cooking basics, a well thought out kitchen supply, it is missing nothing. Apple TV in both the living area and bedroom will give you the netflix comforts of home, but give your head a shake and forget about that. mix yourself a drink with the shaker provided and head upstairs to enjoy the outdoor space at the Fontana. Head up to Purdy, just north west of the condo - about a ten minute walk, to find some amazing restaurants which are true local secrets. NAIYARA - a Thai inspired restaurant is absolutely incredible. along with sushi garage, pub belly sushi, and barceloneta. Also close by is the standard spa - a must! it's only $70 for all access to the spa, gardens, and pool. don't miss this! The owners of 109 have always been great with recommendations, and are involved in the maintenance of the entire building. you can tell they care about their gusts and the property as a whole. So I'll end this review with a question. Why would you stay anywhere but here!?

The unit is first class in decor, the building is very well kept, the other tenants that live there permanently are lovely, welcoming people. I spent 10 days there, got to know everyone around the pool, felt very much "at home" and cared about by others, and that's important to women who travel alone. I will go back many times, it has become the only place I'd want to stay while visiting Miami. If 5 stars is the top grade, this one for me was 25 stars! GG

We had an excellent experience throughout the entire process, including booking the home, getting arrival instructions, our stay, and then checkout. All straightforward. I run a vacation rental management company with over 130 homes in Calfiornia, and was very satisfied wth the beautiful condo and the entire process. I would go for long runs in the morning and then come back and swim laps in the empty pool. Kitchen was all we needed, shower, with double shower heads, was great, and the room was quiet and very comfortable. Bed & other furniture were attractive and comfortable. The art and decor all added to our enjoyment. We loved walking just 1 block to Lincoln Rd or to the beach, or the many fantastic restaraunts in the neighborhood. Balam's on Lincoln Rd was one of our favorite happy hour spots, with Miguel, the waiter, just excellent! We come to SoBe every year to visit family and this will be our go to spot.
