Location & Surroundings
The property is directly on Ocean Drive, with the beach about a one-minute walk away and a listed Walk Score of 100/100. Ocean Drive, Lincoln Road and Espanola Way are 2 to 5 minutes on foot. The source also mentions a shared patio overlooking Ocean Drive, Starbucks and Häagen-Dazs across the street, and the Shoppes at Il Villagio. Nearby restaurants include Oh! Mexico (about 210 m), Españolita Miami (290 m), Osteria Positano (466 m), Il Pastaiolo (517 m), Azteca South Beach (609 m), Ole Ole Steak House (643 m) and Sola Miami Beach (714 m).
Getting Around
Bus stops on Washington Avenue at 15th Street are about 190 m away, and stops at 13th Street and Lincoln Road are within about 360 to 430 m. The source also lists Freebee electric car rides, CityBike stations across from the condo, Uber, and the South Beach Local bus. Miami International Airport is about 16 km away (roughly a 20-minute drive per the source), Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International is about 32 km away, and the cruise port is about a 15-minute drive.
Best for
Best for couples, friends and small groups of up to 4 or 5 who want to be in the middle of South Beach, with the beach about a minute away and restaurants, Lincoln Road and nightlife within a few minutes on foot. The kitchen, in-unit washer/dryer and self check-in also suit longer or independent stays. It is less suited to anyone who wants a quiet stay.
Travel tips
There is no on-site parking, and unauthorized cars in the building lot may be towed. The nearest garage is at 1451 Ocean Drive, and city lots at 1301 Collins Ave, 230 16th St and 512 12th St start at about $2 per hour, with a $20 daily maximum. Street parking is $4 per hour, and you should avoid tow-away zones. From Miami International Airport, the source suggests the tram to Miami Station, then the 150 Airport Flyer Express bus to Washington Ave & Lincoln Road. Most attractions are walkable, so a car is unnecessary. Expect noise from Ocean Drive clubs and restaurants.
