First of all let me say the pics of this place don’t do it justice! It is beautiful, clean and stylish. The balcony is HUGE and wraps around to give you a view of the city and the ocean! The interior has plenty of space to spread out. Check in was simple and quick with the resort staff. The host was amazing. On the way to Florida, our flight was cancelled and I had to come in a day later. I communicated with the host and the response was quick and assured me it wouldn’t be an issue. Two days before leaving I was informed by Southwest that our flight had been grounded and I had to extend my stay by two days. The host quickly sent me an updated reservation and made it happen flawlessly. Not much in the apartment so I walked across the street to the 7-11 that is open 24 hours and got water and coffee. The pool on the 9th floor was nice but I never got in as it was over ran with kids. Although they allowed you to be served alcohol near the pool, you could not have it in the pool. The restaurant there was ok for our first meal but not good enough to eat there again. The beach had amazing sand. It was very crowded but we found a spot. It is very narrow in this section of the beach but on the bright side it gets you closer to the water. For whatever reason (I came here to a hotel next door four years ago and it was not this way) the beach and first 50 yards of ocean was covered in seaweed. We got in once but that was enough as the seaweed was very bad. We took the 50 minute drive to South Beach in Miami and there was no seaweed. Haulover Beach was just an 18 minute drive away and they had next to no seaweed as well. We frequented those two beaches for the stay and stayed off the beach at this resort. The main issue with this resort are the elevators! Four elevators for a 41 story building is not enough!! The line to get on is long every day. One Friday we had a 41 minute wait in the elevator line. We opted to take the stairs several times but this apartment is on the 23 floor so that is not easy, even for those who are in shape. If you have luggage, taking the stairs become a nightmare. Every single person was complaining. I asked the staff at the front desk if it was always this bad and they said “Yes! We have to clock in on the 9th floor so we all take the stairs so we will not be late!” We did learn to avoid the elevators from 10am-12:00pm and 3:45pm-6pm. If you choose to use the elevators during this time (check-in & check-out) just expect a 20 minute wait, minimum. All other times expect a 5-10 minute wait. If you’re an impatient person, this is probably not the place for you. We made the best of it cracking elevator jokes while waiting in line. I will say, I came during spring break so maybe it was busier than usual, however I just looked up the reviews on yelp and it seems the elevators are a common issue. With only being 4 for the entire building, I don’t see how it can ever be fixed. One elevator tip for going up: take the stairs to the 3rd floor and call the elevator from there. Push the down button. It’s much easier to get on going on down than wait in the line to go up. Once it gets to the first floor and everyone gets on, just go up to 23. Doesn’t solve the probably but helps you jump the line.
