South Beach - Oceanfront, 1BR/1BA Suite- Hilton Bentley Hotel

This property exceeded my expectations! I was sad to leave after my stay came to a conclusion. It is in a great location. It is far enough away from the energy of South Beach, but close enough to walk or uber to all the action. I was able to walk every where for dinner at night as there are several great upper scale restaurants within a five minute walk in every direction of this condo.

Unit was super clean upon arrival, spacious, and had excellent views of the surrounding area. Will definitely stay again, and have already recommended this spot to several friends for their upcoming trip options! Overall, great experience, great owner, and no problems for a stress free vacation steps from the beach!

I like Sofi (South of Fifth) because it is a little more quiet than South Beach near the trendier hotels... That being said.. The Hilton Bentley is a condo hotel. All units are privately owned and Hilton does the business of “renting” them out. The unit I stayed in was privately owned, and the owner took care of the renting process... that being said, if you stay with the Hilton units, you have daily cleaning service and you can charge room service to your room, you can also dry clean through the hotel. If you are in a private room like me, you have to do everything separately. Which will save you a lot of money! $$$. It’s a little inconvenient but fine once you figure it all out. Kamran was great, since I was here 3 weeks I wanted fresh linens and towels, so for $150 I could get the apartment cleaned and she did a fantastic job. If you want room service, you just have to go downstairs and pay then they will bring it up. As far as dry cleaning, they use one of the MOST expensive dry cleaners I have ever used... and they had to redo a dress that I had cleaned. Also, if you are in a private room, you have to pay for beach chairs and umbrellas 15 and 10 respectively.

There are a lot of good restaurants very close by this location.... At the very tip of Sofi you can watch boats, cruise ships and cargo ships come and go.... it was very easy to get around with Uber, you don’t need a car.

My room was a good size, one bedroom, living room, bathroom and eat in kitchen, what I didn’t like was the the window in the living room was bolted shut and there was NO balcony, that was a downer for me. The decor could use a little updating, but the views were nice. The hotel needs either a full time doorman or an electric door. Beach from rooms are beautiful views. There are 2 towers The main one on the beach and the other facing Ocean Blvd. My friends had a room facing the road 10th floor and it was awesome! It had a balcony and you could watch cruise ships come and go.

I ended up meeting the owner of the restaurant, Georgies and his wife, and they were fabulous! They also own the coffee shop, which is a Starbucks... The restaurant was really good. Fresh, delicious Mediterranean food and it is open to the pool. Weekends they usually have some entertainment. The employees are all excellent. Weekends can be busy and loud as there is a club right next door

Fantastic location just off the beach. The unit is nice and has everything you need. Close to many good restaurants and bars. Would stay here again.

This is a gorgeous spacious property. Spectacular view and fantastic location. Walk out the door to great restaurants. I didn't want to leave.

Kamran was very responsive. Great views of Government Cut and the coming and going of the cruise ships. Close to restaurants and a small market on 2nd Street. The Hilton staff was very accommodating.
