My husband and I, our daughter and her boyfriend, both 19, spent two January weeks in this condo and enjoyed every minute of it. The condo turned out just as described, it was spacious and clean and suited our needs perfectly.
We were greeted by Gloria who was very helpful and informative. The communication with Ana before we arrived went smoothly and she answered all my questions promptly.
The condo is conventiently located practically on the beach, and there was a nice pool area with plenty of sunbeds. There is a Walmart and a Publix just 10 min drive away, which was very handy for grocery shopping. The Hollywood Broadwalk (3 kms away) is worth a visit, nice beach, plenty of restaurants and great place for "people spotting". There is a huge mall, Aventura, just 15 mins away by car with 300 shops, movie theaters and restaurants.
There is a security guard at the front desk and entering the building requires a fob (electronic key) which made us feel safe. The only drawback was the parking fee, but that is part of the building rules and nothing the owner of the condo can do anything about.
I would definitely recommend it to friends and would like to go back too!

Modern Beachfront Condo

Positives:
1) The condo overall was a very comfortable, clean place to stay.
2) It was very spacious, had a nice little balcony & comfortable beds.
3) It is nice that it has direct beach access.
4) The gardens & pool area were lovely/great places to relax.
5) We received our deposit back prior to leaving the rental. I'm not sure if this is typical for this rental property or not, but it was nice not to have to wait for that.

A few things that were less than excellent were:
1) The beach itself is a very dirty beach- lots of plastic bits, trash, cigarette butts, etc...
2) The drain in the main bathroom's sink & tub were draining very slowly so we had to buy Draino which helped a lot w/ the tub but did not much improve the sink.
3) This condo community has a private, locked access to both the building & the beach. We were only provided w/ one key so even though we had 4 adults, we all had to pretty much go to the beach together or keep our cell phones w/ us & run to unlock when called.
4) This particular spot in Hollywood is not the best spot to stay in- not really close to beach shops or restaurants. A car is definitely needed.
5) This condo has valet parking which has a daily $5 fee. This is not a huge deal, but having to pay for parking as well as worrying about tipping the valet was more of an added stress to our trip than a luxury.

Recommended for: families with young children, tourists without a car
