Free on-site parking is available in front of the house or on the quieter side, away from the main street.

Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport is about 11 km away, Miami International Airport about 15 km by the index's measure (the host cites roughly 11 miles), and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International about 22 km. The host lists the beach at 5–7 miles, Wynwood and Aventura Mall at about 6 miles, Hard Rock Stadium at 9 miles, and South Beach at 13 miles.
Best for
Best for couples, solo travelers and small groups who want a private, home-like base with a kitchen and free parking instead of a conventional hotel. The private entrance, self check-in and central position relative to Wynwood, Aventura Mall and the beaches suit visitors exploring Miami by car.
Travel tips
A car is the easiest way to reach the beaches, Wynwood, Aventura and the stadiums, and free parking is available in front or on the quieter side of the house. Bus stops on Biscayne Blvd are a few minutes' walk away if you prefer transit. Because check-in is self-service and parties are not allowed, plan your arrival details with the host in advance and keep noise down.

The property's own description emphasizes the private entrance, cleanliness, thoughtful hosting, easy check-in and cozy feel, but those points come from the listing and not from guest reviews.
