Considering the hefty premium rates this hotel did not meet expectations and was just ok. Nice to have an EV charger though. Breakfast was very uninspired and bland, hotel could use some upgrades and updates.

Terrific property and service for any occasion.

Checked in alone as I was extending a business trip in Miami and had never been. General Manager checks you in personally and gives you tour of amazing property. Cottage/Condo type room with large living room and kitchen for entertaining and spacious master bedroom. Absolutely wonderful grounds behind main hotel with pools and terrific landscaping. Location is absolutely perfect. Close to all the action but far enough away so you don't hear it and can enjoy this oasis when you want some quite time.

Beautiful grounds. Friendly and personable staff. Stayed in the eyebrow suite. Bed was comfortable and there was good water pressure in the shower. The tub however runs out of hot water at less than half full. It is a block from the fire station but we didn’t have any firetrucks interrupting our sleep the 2 nights of our stay. Very convenient location for walking around town.

Despite claiming to be dog-friendly, it is not

This place boasts a beautiful setting, but unfortunately, the front desk staff wasn't very welcoming. Despite advertising themselves as pet-friendly, they made us feel like our dog was an inconvenience. The biggest issue was their restrictive pet policy: we couldn't leave our dog unattended in the room at all times, and weren't allowed on the grounds with him. This essentially trapped us in our room for the entire stay! We even had to rely on Uber Eats for meals because we couldn't leave our dog alone.
