  Can't say enough positive things about this condo. The location is great -- really beachfront and a straight shot from Miami Int. airport. I visited with my 6 and 8 year old daughters and stayed a week over Thanksgiving 2012. The unit itself is pristine and equipped like a luxury hotel; yet comfortable and relaxed enough for my kids to enjoy. Loved the morning sunrises that can be seen throughout the apt. There is a full service grocery store five minutes up the road; along with a Miami Public library which was fun for the kids. The beach is clean and very private; the kids loved the lovely seashells they collected. Lots of nice "extras" -- beach towels; coolers; wide assortment of magazines which mom loved. There is free valet parking; great when you come home with lots of groceries or packages or in my case for my elderly aunt/uncle who visited. Superb closet space which faciltated organizing the whole family. A restaurant in the building next door which has very good take out and delivery and also has a nice oceanfront view if you prefer to eat on site. Everything in the unit is high end -- shower accessories and TVs and the decor makes you feel serene. The kitchen is stocked with lots of wonderful accessories which would suit most demanding chefs. An ample hip dining table made it easy to invite friends ver for a leisurely lunch (one of whom immediately tried to book the unit for her overseas relatives for Christmas). The owner Willie is very responsive and an accomplished professional. He was prompt, courteous and put me at ease. I definitely would return again. It is a gem.

  I had the opportunity to take my 2 teenage daughters to Miami this year on Spring Break. In work in the area and frequent S Florida often, so was very familliar with getting around. The condo is very nice, clean and equipped better than most homes. The set-up is perfect for as many as 4, but probably no more comfortably. While the complex is not new, they are making a lot of repairs and upgrades....for the location though..it is very worth it. The beach in front of it is very nice, and it is only a short walk to the Fontainbleu.....which has a GREAT pool. Willie greeted us, solved any issues immediately and was very helpful in recommending great restaurants. We will be back!!! Thanks Willie.

  We stayed at this beautiful beachfront condo two weeks ago. We are a family of four, and the place exceeded all our expectations. I have two little children so when we travel, my wife and I prefer to stay in houses or apartments that have full kitchens. This place was by far the nicest place we have stayed in. It was fully equipped, modern yet elegant, and the most beautiful view of the ocean with full size glass windows to look out of from both the living room and the master bedroom. There's a great balcony and I immensely enjoyed drinking my morning coffee as the sun rose and having a cocktail as the sun set. The location is perfect as it is right in the middle of Miami Beach (about 10 blocks away from Fontainbleau). Our beach access was great and generally not very crowded. I wake up early with my children and before 11am, it feels like your own private beach. Even when it's "crowded" its not even remotely as crowded as the hotel beaches are. I know this has been said before, but the pictures are true representations of what the apartment looks like. Additionally, I must reiterate how great the owner Willie is. He is genuinely one of the nicest men I've met. Extremely helpful and accommodating. I enthusiastically recommend this place! For those with children, I highly recommend visiting the Miami Zoo which I think blows the Bronx Zoo away and check out the beach at crandon park in key biscayne. Really calm waters and crystal clear. Have fun.

  First off, the condo is exactly as described-beautiful, well kept, with an absolutely gorgeous view of the ocean from both the bedroom and the balcony! Everything you would need is there, and added bonus Willie is super attentive and goes out of his way to make you feel at home and everything is perfect. We went for a week for our honeymoon, and it was awesome! The beach is beautiful and has a cool little sand bar, so you could go out deeper and take everything in. Very relaxing, absolutely gorgeous, and I highly recommend it! The ONLY reason I give it 4/5 and not 5/5 is that we were unlucky enough to stay there when someone was demolishing the interior of their condo close by. It was EXTREMELY loud for 2 of the days we were there, and even though Willie tired very hard to limit the noise times, there wasn't much you could do to make that better. Probably doesn't happen often, so we were just very unlucky in that. All in all, the condo is wonderful, and if you are looking to stay in Miami Beach, the unit is definitely worth it. I only wish we could have stayed longer!

  This was our second time at this condo and again we stayed for four weeks. My wife and I cannot say enough about our overall experience. The owner is an outstanding human being who will do whatever it takes to make your stay enjoyable. He even helped us bring a luggage cart full of suitcases up to the suite and took the empty cart back by himself. The condo has been completely renovated and is truly splendid. The location for us is ideal, right on the ocean and near South Beach,shopping and restaurants. We have already booked for winter 2012. This is a great find!

  My wife and I stayed six weeks from October to November 2011. We met Willie on arrival, he showed us the condo and made us feel at home. The condo is well-appointed, spacious, quiet and the view from the balcony is gorgeous. We had a great time and everything was perfect. We enjoyed our vacation and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday and super vacation.

  What a wonderful vacation! Very relaxing. Beautiful location, view, and beach. Fantastic building. The owner, Willie, is gracious, accessible, and he made us feel like we were staying in our own home. (The importance of this aspect of renting on VRBO can not be overstated. A great owner makes a world of difference in the quality of your stay.) This is a one-of-a-kind unit in a great building. The entire experience was everything that we hoped it would be -- and more. Can't wait to go back!!! Thank you, Willie!!!

  My husband and I stayed here for a 1 week getaway April 22 - 30th. This condo is exactly what you see in the photos! No misrepresentation whatsoever. The condo is well-appointed, spacious, and quiet. Fabulous views from the balcony. The owner, Willie, met us at the condo when we arrived from the airport to go over all of the details and to acquaint us with all of the features of the place. He is a gracious host and even offered us an extra nights stay as we were celebrating our 10th anniversary! The beach was mostly empty. As beachcombing is a favorite of mine, I was elated to find that this stretch of beach was a fantastic area to find great shells. We had a great time and look forward to staying with you again Willie!

  A Great condo that is just like it looks! We stayed Ap1- Ap8, 2011 and were not disappointed. The owner, Willie was very helpful in making sure everything was good for us. He gave us restaurant recommendations and met us at the condo to go over everything in detail. The condo is 1/2 way between South Beach and North Beach. Here is a tip, We did not rent a car! you can easily get to everything by bus $2.00 pp or a small cab fee. We spent less than $120 for transportation and $80 of that was for the cab to and from the airport. Also if you love walking the South Beach boardwalk is only 2 miles away and from there it goes about 4 miles to South Beach. One thing of note is that there are no BBQ's, not Willies fault , just not provided by the building when we were there. A wonderful private beach and huge pool, a super vacation!!

  My wife and I spent the last two weeks of January 2011 at this condo. The owner; Willie, met us on arrival and showed us around the building as well as his condo. It was very helpful to have someone explain the workings for the lighting, the appliances and especially the entertainment system. The condo is truly a luxurious holiday residence. Lots of marble and granite. A well equipped kitchen. Comfortable living room furniture. Extra comfy king sized bed and everything was very clean and tidy. The living room and bedroom each have a 50 inch television. Music channels, movie channels and many other entertainment channels are available if anyone wishes to watch TV. The balcony was our favorite place to relax. Great view of the ocean, the beach and the people on the beach. Comfortable balcony furniture as well. Watched a few sunrises as well as drifted off to sleep while relaxing in the fresh air. The large swimming pool is a true 'heated' pool. Water was always very warm. Lots of lounges and chairs poolside. Lounges are placed on the beach as well so there's a choice, pool or beach. Thank you Willie. We enjoyed our stay and recommend your hospitality to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday in the sun.
