Overview
This is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment (described by the host as a 1/1, not a studio) in a building on Harbor Island in Miami Shores. The host states it was recently renovated and that appliances, TVs and furniture are new. The property carries short-term rental license number STVR-000093-2020, and its star class is not rated.

Bus stops along 79 St Causeway are very close: Harbor Island Dr is 27 m away, Adventure Av 356 m, Hispanola Av 782 m, and NE 79 St & Pelican Harbor Dr 818 m. The host cites roughly 10 minutes to Downtown Miami and 20 minutes to Miami airport.

Best for
Best suited to couples or small groups who want a self-catering base with a kitchen, washer, free parking and free Wi-Fi. The pool, grill, balcony and beach access appeal to leisure travelers wanting a waterfront-area stay near Downtown and the beaches. Travelers sensitive to upkeep should review recent guest feedback first.
Travel tips
A bus stop on 79 St Causeway is only 27 m away, useful for getting around without a car, though free parking is provided if you drive. Miami International Airport is roughly 14.5 km away (the host estimates about 20 minutes), and Downtown is about 10 minutes by the host's estimate. Since one guest reported hot water and odor problems, confirm the unit's condition with the host before arrival.
What guests say
The property holds a strong public rating of about 4.6 from 182 reviews, and the host's description emphasizes the renovation, the balcony sunset views and the location. The one review excerpt provided is negative, so it does not reflect the overall score. That guest found the apartment outdated and said the listing photos did not match its condition. They also reported an unpleasant odor and consistently cold water, and described a tense exchange with the host that led them to cancel. Upkeep, accuracy of photos and host responsiveness are the aspects worth checking.
