Location & Surroundings
The resort sits directly on Collins Avenue in Miami Beach, within a two-minute walk of five separate bus stops, and steps from Cecconi's Miami restaurant. Nearby dining includes Piola Italian Restaurant, Arkadia Grill, and Donna Mare Italian Chophouse, all within a half-kilometer, while South Beach, Ocean Drive, and Lincoln Road are roughly 15 minutes away by car.

Best for
This suite suits beach-focused leisure travelers and families who want direct beach access, multiple pools (including a kids' pool with water slide), and a crib available on request. It also works well for travelers wanting resort-style amenities like a full spa, large gym, and varied on-site dining without leaving the property, and its walkable access to bus stations and nearby restaurants suits those wanting some independence from a car.
Travel tips
Bus stops on Collins Avenue and Indian Creek Drive are within a two-minute walk, offering an easy no-car option for shorter trips, while South Beach and Lincoln Road are about a 15-minute drive or walk away. Note that a mandatory check-out cleaning fee and daily valet parking charge apply separately from the room rate, and a per-night hold deposit is placed on arrival, so budget accordingly. For beach days, daybeds and umbrellas are paid extras arranged with resort staff rather than included amenities.
