My mother and I stayed at this location November 7, 2011- November 10, 2011 to celebrate my birthday. I have previously been to South Beach several times prior so I knew exactly where I wanted to stay in South Beach (close to Wet Willie’s of course, lol). I knew for a fact I didn’t want to stay in a hotel, I wanted a home away from home type of feel. So after looking at numerous condos via TripAdvisor, I was torn because there were so many to choose from. But what made me go ahead and give Raul a try was his immediate and detailed response he gave when I sent him an inquiry. I asked numerous questions about the rental property, I even asked questions that were already answered on the listing page but Raul still answered and was very welcoming.

With that being said I went ahead and sent the deposit and filled out the necessary paperwork, which was a breeze. Every step of the way the owner of the property was there and willing to assist in any manner. I had a special request and it was to allow us to check in early (11 am) instead of 3pm since we would arrive in Miami around 9am. Raul had no problem accommodating us and even met us at the condo to introduce himself and bring additional dish soap.
The overall building itself is wearing but that goes for a lot of historic property along South Beach. But the condo itself was very clean and up to date and not to mention WIFI. I love how spacious it was (each bedroom had its own bathroom) and AGAIN very clean. Just by the little welcoming items Raul had there I can tell that he wanted my mother and I to feel like we were at home. And that’s exactly how we felt for the 3 days we were there. One more thing I appreciate about the building/property is how secure it is, I like the fact that someone needs a key to not only get into the parking lot but also into the building and of course the individual units.

I don’t know if it was the time of year we came down (early November) but we didn’t hear any outside noise while sleeping. I most definitely didn’t and I even slept in the bedroom with balcony and I left it cracked during the night. I slept very comfortable and peaceful at the condo, which says a lot.

At the end of our stay we hated to leave but I do know when I return to South Beach next year, I will contact Raul.

P.S. deposit was returned promptly

Excellent location. Property Owner Raul, is an excellent host. Raul checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed. I was there celebrating my 45th birthday, no need for a car, just walk around the corner and your on Ocean Drive, less than 5 minute walk to beach. Just wanted to thank you for allowing us to use your condo, looking forward to staying there again sometime next year.
