This apartment is in the middle of everything in South Beach. You can literally walk almost anywhere in the neighborhood. There is a lovely southern view from the balcony and no noise to disturb, especially while sleeping. This is a gem of a place.

Had to cut visit in half due to evacuation.. Will return in November.

This was an amazing month. So glad I booked this place, it was incredible! The view from the balcony is gorgeous, I went out there every single morning and evening. Check in was smooth and easy, and security in the building is great. The kitchen was really wonderful and well stocked, with a full sized fridge, which is a plus. The building is located in a great place on South Beach, within easy walking distance to hundreds of amazing shops, restaurants, and anything else you could want. You have access to an amazing pool that's only for the building. There's a 24hr Walgreens right next to the building for anything you need, and a great free trolley system that runs most hours, 7 days a week, for transport all over the island to anything that's too far to walk. The beach walk that runs between the building and the beach itself is beautiful. The studio is on the inside curve of the building, meaning that it's away from the busy street and very quiet and peaceful, with an unbeatable beach view. A small point, but the water pressure in the shower is great. The owner is very nice, easy to contact, and responds very quickly. There were only two real negatives to the place, neither of which detracts from my rating because they were both things out of the owner's control. First, they were doing construction on the building during the weekdays. They only worked at reasonable hours, but if you wanted to spend a day inside (or, like me, working sometimes odd hours at the hospital and wanting to be asleep in the middle of the day) the jackhammering and drilling sounds were very loud and disruptive. The only other negative was that a neighbor somewhere down the hall was constantly smoking marijuana in their apartment, so much that the entire hallway and sometimes even my unit smelled terrible. This happened every single morning and evening, and I could occasionally smell it out on the balcony as well. Neither of these problems, however, kept me from having an amazing time, and I would happily book the place again.

I had a lovely time at this property. The building is a very safe place with very good security all around. Front desk is the main security check in spot, they are really vigilant as to who is coming into the building. Chris apartment is a very nice unit, comfortable, very clean and well organized. You only need to take your beach clothes, he has it all under control. If you happen to forget your toothpaste you just go down and cross the street where there is a Walgreens opened 24 hours. You are at walking distance from all the cool and nice places in South Beach and a three minute walk from the ocean. The pool is super cool with staff on site. All in all, you will enjoy and love this place. One other thing is that Chris is a very pleasant person to deal with, very kind and willing to help if you happen to need anything. He responds your calls very promptly and is always courteous. I look forward to going back as soon as I can.
