The hotel staff are incredibly accommodating and friendly, making the stay even more enjoyable. The location is excellent, with a variety of restaurants and shops nearby, and it’s just a short walk to the beach. Additionally, the pricing is very reasonable considering the spacious rooms and comfortable beds. I’m looking forward to visiting again!

I had an incredible stay at Local House in Miami Beach! The location is unbeatable—just steps from the beach with convenient beach access and fantastic beach service that made lounging by the ocean effortless. The rooftop sunsets were absolutely breathtaking, and the quiet, boutique vibe of the hotel offered the perfect balance of relaxation and proximity to all the local hot spots. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the valet service was a great convenience. If you’re looking for a serene yet central place to stay, Local House is a gem! I love walking out on the balcony in the mornings.

This little hotel in South Beach is my absolute favorite place in the whole world for so many reasons. From the moment you arrive the atmosphere is very relaxed with beautiful beachy vibes for all the senses, visually and the scent of the ocean. The staff is so friendly they are so appreciative of you bring there and make you feel happy. The rooms are spacious and modern but the best part is the swaying large palms outside your sliding door where you can sit down on your private balcony and just take in the feel of being there at this marvelous place. I would like to say how much it means to me that they take such good care of the property and have such warm welcoming people working to greet their guests. The Local House is my happy place where I wish I could stay more often but I definitely highly recommend it.
