This Penthouse is all that it is advertised to be
Guest: Norm and M.
Date of Stay: 01/28/12
Review Submitted: 02/07/12
What a great place to spend a week of indulgent down time!! This Penthouse experience is all that it is advertised to be. The view from the terrace is probably the best in Sobe and the atmosphere and privacy are quite unique among the other penthouses (we stayed one night in one of the other suites, and while still nice, did not compare with this one). The suite and its amenities are first class. The service is attentive without being intrusive. The rooftop dining ... a nice touch. We even managed to get some work done, when not distracted by the waves and palms. We hope to be back. Thanks to David and his staff.

This suite is astonishing....this is our third visit...you almost have to go more than once to take it all in....it's platonic...an ideal. Ok...I can't stand it...Great playlist. The music is so good!!...and the '09 Sterling complimentary on the house...I am buying a case when I get home....loved it!...It's that '80s style chard with huge oak. This has been a dream, my guess is that David and staff enjoy knowing that guests are having fun.

We just came back from our second stay in this suite, and, as for the first time, we tremendously enjoyed our visit. The location is unsurpassed, on the corner of Lummus park yet away from the noise. Countless restaurants are within minutes walking. The beach is simply exceptional. The suite itself, with its balcony and rooftop terrace are simply beautiful: top quality amenities, Nespresso machine, wine chiller... all of what you need with simple elegance. There is nothing like enjoying a jacuzzi on the terrace while sipping a glass of wine and watching the ocean. This is a fantastic place in which to stay in South Beach. David's attention to detail and to your wishes will make it a memorable experience.

This suite glows.

A friend called and referred me to this Penthouse. He said there was this really nice place. He had spent his honeymoon there. For us it started with the high walls facing the ocean which are of glass. The warm sunlight glowed off the super clean marble floor, bath, counters, and the fine furnishings. Everything in the suite was luxurious including the exotic flowers which was nice to have courtesy of the suite. The interior was immaculately set up, quiet and relaxing. I spent much of my limited time drinking espresso on the large balcony which has ocean view and listening to the wide and large array of music David has compiled. I would highly recommend enjoying dinner or breakfast on the roof top which has a flower garden and a wet bar to prepare your drinks. In the evening the placement of the lights in the suite created a most romantic atmosphere. There is nothing better. This is pure magic.

What a lovely and romantic stay we enjoyed at this Penthouse Suite. We celebrated our 37th wedding anniversary in style. A chilled bottle of wine awaitied our arrival, and our hostess explained everything that was needed to have a wonderful stay. Thank you David for making our visit to Miami a memorable one. Also note that the staff at the hotel were fabulous and helpful as well.

We stayed in Penthouse 09 in November 2011.It was absolutely perfect. The suite is gorgeous and the views from the amazing terrace are lovely. Location on South Beach just great. David is so attentive and the guys that clean on a daily basis were so helpful. We hope to go again some time next year

Can't wait to come back
Guest: Max B.
Date of Stay: 09/02/11
Review Submitted: 09/15/11
It's hard to add to the numerous reviews, all I can say is that our stay at this suite was wonderful and one of our favorite vacations ever. We even extended a night half-way through our stay. We both love coffee and were excited to find out that David includes complementary Nespresso coffee (about 10 different varieties, refilled daily). Sipping espresso on the roof terrace or near the jacuzzi was one of our favorite things to do. The location of the penthouse is also fantastic, not too noisy but still close to everything you need. Can't wait to come back. Thanks David and Victor for an amazing vacation!

The suite is full of luxurious amenities

We had the pleasure to again visit South Beach and stay this time at this luxurious five star suite. The room is absolutely gorgeous, light and spacey with enormous wall windows that allow you to enjoy the beautiful view of the ocean. The suite is full of luxurious amenities. Everything in there is of top notch quality down to the bedding linens. We enjoyed the spacious shower with massage shower heads and found the kitchen bar very convenient. The greatest asset in our opinion is the rooftop terrace which offers uninterrupted view of the ocean where you can enjoyed afternoons soaking in the Jacuzzi with a bottle of chilled wine or a moijoto (from the rooftop refrigerator) and delivered sushi... There is a convenient bar/restaurant downstairs which we whole heartedly recommend. The location could not be any better, with close proximity to Lincoln Road and Espanola Way, two of the main streets in SOBE, everything is walking distance away. Daily room cleaning service ensures that the room and terrace stays pristine. David has a solution to any issue that may come up; we had initially some issues connecting to the internet to keep in touch with our professional life (unfortunately unavoidable in today's world... ) but David made sure that we were taken care of. it is a great piece of mind to know that you have support 24/7, just in case. David, thank you for a great stay. This is truly the only place in SOBE you need, to have a great vacation or getaway weekend.

What an experience! We hardly ever left the room.
Guest: Brad a.
Date of Stay: 08/05/11
Review Submitted: 09/09/11
What an experience! We hardly ever left the room. The views, the terrace, the jacuzzi, the bed, the chilled bottle of Sauvignon Blanc.... everything was perfect. We were celebrating our first year anniversary and wanted to stay somewhere local but special, we research different options in Naples, Sanibel, Key West and South Beach and decided to stay at the Sapphire Suite, best decision - the location is perfect, right across the street from the beach and the great nightlife and restaurants on Espanola Way, and walking distance to pretty much everything there is to do in South Beach. But as I said, this Penthouse is so great you might not even want to leave the room. We had plenty of delivery and room service options, the minibar in the room and wet bar on the terrace was fully stocked, the jacuzzi can be filled with cold or hot water (which is a big plus in Florida), you have beds on the shade and lounge beds you can move around to get sun, and the list of luxury amenities goes on. We are definitely coming back and recommending it to all our friends.

This is a really nice penthouse
Guest: Warren D.
Date of Stay: 07/27/11
Review Submitted: 08/06/11
This is a really nice suite. The feel in this suite is hard to describe. It feels good and uplifting. When I walked into the room, the warmth, the colors almost immediately lifted me up. The interior is picture perfect. The view of the ocean is as beautiful as it can be. Everyday the suite was kept super clean with an on-time and courteous caretaker. Everything was of the highest quality from the complimentary wine, which they had ready for us when we arrived to the soft towels and Jonathan Adler bedside lamp. I was renewed. There was much refinement and caring reflected in the daily services we got. Whatever the pictures show you of penthouse 09 it is not enough. I was happy. It was the sun, the way it shines into this suite and the ocean, the way it comes in. It is all of the above and more. This is a really nice penthouse. The most beautiful I have ever stayed. Bless
