About this property

On Beach - 3rd/Ocean - Direct Ocean View and Access - Pool

This is one of the few ocean facing apartments in this art deco building in SoFi. It's been completely renovated to reflect the beautiful light throughout the day, that starts with the sunrise. Furnishings are light and fresh; bedding and towels are high quality and comfortable.

The beach is just out the back door, across the pool area, through a private walkway through the dunes. The condo is equipped with a Beach Club Card which allows you to receive two FREE beach chairs and one umbrella for free at Esteban's Place Beach Service (this is a $40.00 value per day anywhere else). The apartment includes beach towels. There is no service at Esteban's so either pack a cooler with your favorite drinks or hop over to The Savoy Beach Bar, just one block north for cocktails on the beach.

The building just received some fresh paint, new artwork and some other repairs and renovations. It's well maintained and monitored. However, please keep in mind; it's a humble, low key art deco building of vacation rentals, not ultra luxury accomodations like the surrounding buildings and the area.

More on the area, it doesn't get any better. Some notable hangouts are Nikki Beach Club, Carbone, Catch, Kissaki, Forte Dei Marmi, all within 3 blocks of walking distance. Boardwalk is right in the back of the building, parks and public spaces surround the whole area.

For more casual options, just walk north on the boardwalk where you'll find a vibrant restaurant, bar and shopping scene.

No parking garage in the building. A car is neither needed nor recommended but plenty of garages available in the area. Spot Hero app gets you the best options and rates. Uber is affordable and widely available.

Nice location and property condition. Be mindful that air-con units are very loud, every night there was a group of neighbours sitting around swimming pool until late night, so you cannot keep windows open if you want to avoid the noise. Beds are not comfortable to sleep, and I would suggest need replacement of mattress and pillows. On the plus side - sea view from windows is amazing, access to the beach and beach card is definitely a plus (although fairly priced in), helpful beach toys, towels, etc. Unit is equipped enough to do cooking, but kitchen feels small and cramped, so we didn't really use it much.

Beautifully designed, confortable, clean apartment

Lovely place, so bright and clean, however for us it was very noisy due to inconsiderate neighbours slamming doors and talking loudly in the early hours. This really spoilt the whole experience for us as it woke us up every night. We had particularly booked an apartment to avoid this, paying more than we would normally to be on the beach. Also the washing machine/dryers were both out of order. Theresa has taken our issues on board and will try to rectify things. However we would not return to this particular property when visiting the area.

Perfect getaway weekend

We had a great time here, communication and directions were easy, beach access is amazing. I didn't realize until I get there that most of the popular restaurants are within a short walk, you don't need a car really. The beach chairs and umbrellas made everything so easy, we didn't have to schlep all that and it's free to building residents. We didn't use the pool but it looked quiet and nice. The apartment itself is pretty much exactly what it looks like online. We didn't cook and the kitchen is very small but it was more than enough for a morning coffee. The view is beautiful and everything is very clean. Thank you so much, we're obviously coming back!

Awful South Beach Stay

The elevator was behind a door that original. The unit was nothing like the pictures. Bed looked like someone slept it in. Dirt in kitchen drawer. Unit was dirty. The air conditioner in the bedroom was horrible loud and unit was rusted. I stayed in the unit for 1 1/2 hours and left.

As good as it gets

Great property with direct beach access. Communication with owner/mgr was great. The description is perfect. This end unit offers amazing view of Miami Beach. This visit met all our expectations and more. A big highlight was the ability to walk everywhere… including to get food, enjoy the scenic views, stroll the beach and give thanks for all we have. Cheers!

Like a beach cottage in a building

The apartment was exaxtly as described. We have stayed in this building many times in other apartments and this by far was the best. The view is great and you can watch the sunrise perfectly. The only drawback is the airconditioning. It needs to be upgraded. A little stuffy and warm but otherwise great.

Just go with it

If you are strictly looking for placement, this is your place! Views of the ocean and very quickly accessible. For us, we made it work and were fine. Easy walk to the night life of ocean drive. Needs some deep cleaning and painting, doable though. It is old and the overall complex smells, not the actual comdo. Unfortunately there are not drawers to put your items, a few hangers, but basically living out of a suitcase.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Disliked: Communication
Let me start by saying what was great about this rental. It was close to beach! The layout was thoughtful and functional which maximized the small space. There were lots of coffee amenities provided and a large cutting board that converted sink to counter space for food prep (and was the only surface for this). The unit was nicely decorated and clean. What we didn’t like… I probably should’ve picked up from previous reviews that mentioned “musty” and the disclaimer in the unit description that there is a silent smoke detector in unit, but I did not so I will be blunt. The skunky smell of marijuana was STRONG. It wafted into the unit from the hallway and neighboring units. The hallways reeked of it. If our trip hadn’t been so short, we certainly would’ve relocated. The wall air conditioning units were LOUD and kept us from getting good sleep - I wouldn’t classify us as light sleepers, but not heavy either. The key fob reader at the pool entrance from the beach AND at the side door stairwell was broken. This meant that we had to walk all the way around the building from the beach to enter from the front door. The Internet and cable did not work during our stay. We messaged the property manager when we were leaving to make them aware for the next renter; given our short stay, we did not feel the need to have it addressed while we were there. However, I never received a response from the property manager so I question if it would’ve been fixed had we reported it earlier.

The experience itself wasn’t terrible, but in terms of cleanliness it could have been way better. The place was picked up and neat but definitely not clean. The shower was grimmey and the utensil draw was sticky and messy. The room was a bit musty when we walked in. Definitely smelled dog on the bedding in the living room, and the bedding on the bed was also not clean. The place is really cute nearby a lot of different activities and the amenities were great like the beach chairs. I would say if the place was more attended to and cleaner it would have made a huge difference . The people in the building were nice and communication with the host was easy and quickly responsive.

Great location and value

The condo looks just like the pictures, is small but functional, and right on the beach. There was a cleaning issue upon arrival, but it was taken care of right away. A lot of restaurants within walking distance as well as a small grocery store. Having 2 lounge chairs and an umbrella available every day on the beach is a wonderful benefit to this property.

The location is perfect. Communication w property management great. Unfortunately the unit didn’t meet our standards for cleanliness. Everything needs a good clean, the property has seen a lot of use and reflects that. Air conditioning units very noisey and the unit doesnt smell fresh.

I moved to Miami Beach in 2013. I am originally from upstate NY and went to school to be a registered nurse. My career brought me to Maryland where I married and became a mother of one. Having moved away from family and friends early on I have lots of experience with hosting guests and entertaining. Real estate and home decorating is my passion. I finally purchased a place I have always dreamed of and want to share it with others! Come experience the paradise I have found!

Why they chose this property

location, location, location - Ocean Drive, South of Fifth, palm trees and Ocean view... can't beat it!

What makes this property unique

The view is spectacular, palm trees and the sea - the wind flows through the space like a dream. The sunrise view from the windows is simply spellbinding - Be sure to get up early and experience the colors and power of another day beginning.
