Fontainebleau III Oceanview Double Wide Balcony Full Kitchen. Washer/Dryer
Guest rating: 4.8 / 5
Overview
This unit is a privately owned, one-of-a-kind residence on the 3rd floor of the Sorrento Tower within the iconic Fontainebleau resort in Miami Beach. It features an unusually large double-wide balcony with ocean views, a rare configuration that sets it apart from standard hotel rooms at the property. Guests are checked in personally by the host's team rather than a traditional front desk.
Rooms & Layout
The unit sleeps guests comfortably with a king-sized bed plus a queen sofa pull-out, along with one full bathroom and one half bathroom. It includes a full kitchen with oven, stove, and microwave, plus an in-unit washer/dryer, making it well suited to longer stays. Additional in-room comforts include air conditioning, heating, cable TV, an ironing board, and a private balcony.
Amenities & Recreation
Staying here grants access to the broader Fontainebleau resort's recreational facilities, including 11 pools (indoor and outdoor), a fitness center, a hot tub, and direct beach access with chairs. Two daily spa passes are included with the stay, and there is no resort fee charged on top. Guests also have use of a patio area and elevator access within the building.
Dining & On-Site Services
The Fontainebleau resort offers multiple on-site restaurants ranging from casual fare to Michelin-rated dining, along with shopping and boutiques located on the property. The resort also hosts the well-known LIV nightclub and BleauLive entertainment events. Housekeeping is provided upon departure, with additional cleaning available during the stay for an extra fee arranged directly with the host.
Location
The property sits in Miami Beach directly along Collins Avenue, within a two-minute walk of several bus stops including Collins Avenue and 44th Street (79m) and Indian Creek Dr & 44 St (163m). Lincoln Road Mall is about a 10-minute trip away, and Miami International Airport is roughly 17km from the hotel.
Best for
This unit suits travelers seeking a resort-style Miami Beach stay with extra space and privacy, such as couples or small families wanting a full kitchen and in-unit laundry for a longer visit. It's also a strong fit for repeat Fontainebleau visitors who want the resort's pools, beach, and dining but prefer a larger, more residential layout with a double-wide balcony ocean view.
Travel tips
Multiple bus stops are within a two-minute walk (Collins Avenue and 44th Street, Indian Creek Dr & 44 St, and others), making it easy to reach nearby areas without a car, and free parking is available on-site if you do drive. Plan for about a 10-minute trip to Lincoln Road Mall for additional shopping and dining. Be aware the resort is undergoing pool deck construction, so some pool areas and cabanas may be reconfigured during your stay, though the main Bow Tie Pool, Arkadia Pool, and the Sorrento and Tresor owners' pools remain open.
What guests say
Guests consistently praise the unit's standout double-wide balcony and ocean/pool views, often calling it one of the best rooms they've experienced at the Fontainebleau despite having stayed at the resort many times before. The smooth, personally-managed check-in process is highlighted as a positive surprise for those unfamiliar with booking a privately owned unit rather than through the hotel directly. On the negative side, at least one guest noted dissatisfaction with an undisclosed additional cleaning fee, suggesting a recurring point of friction around fee transparency.
