We stayed 9 nights and really enjoyed this property. The photos accurately represent the place. We weren't looking for a resort environment (did that last year) and didn't want to be in a large, crowded establishment, so this place was perfect for us. It's not a resort, so don't expect many amenities (if that's what you're looking for...) but it has a lovely pool and patio area, both exceptionally clean and relaxing. And they do supply beach towels as well. The unit itself was immaculately clean, tranquil, and comfortable with a separate living area and kitchen, comfy bed and linens, and no mildew or musty smell inside. The location is very close to Eagle and Divi beach (especially if you have a car) but it's also walkable (as we did each day, with the only caveat being that there are sometimes only a few narrow sidewalks for pedestrians, so you have to get used to walking close to traffic whizzing by you). There are also two of the best grocery stores very nearby, a few restaurants, and a great bakery off one of the side streets. But the best thing has to be the owner and his uncle. Wonderfully decent, friendly people, very oriented towards making your trip a smooth and optimized vacation experience for the guests. I'd recommend South Beach Residence for those who want to be away from crowds and noise, and yet close enough to the action. Thanks, Amir & Ramses! Keep up the good work there!

This being a last minute booking, it didn't disappoint. Only thing I would point out is you need a vehicle to get around to the Beaches. Thank you Amir for your kindness. I would definitely stay here again. Suzy

We had the pleasure of staying at South Beach Residence for 1 full month. The accomodation was clean and plenty of room for two people. Beautiful pool! It had everything we required for our stay. The location is very convenient and easy to navigate to the beach, the golf course, grocery store and restaurants. We were grateful we rented a car as we were able to go all around the island. Amir was our host and one special man. He was helpful, caring, responsive and always pleasant with a warm greeting. We always felt safe. We definitely recommend Amir's place.

Clean, has everything you need for living in the room there is a folding beach chair and a beach umbrella. Very convenient parking right at the entrance, opposite BMS tour, if you want to explore the island and arrived without a car. Only 5 minutes by car to Eagle Beach, 7 minutes to Palm Beach. Market within walking distance or 3 minutes by car. Of course there is no view of the ocean, but there is a pool, and if you are by car everything is nearby. It is very pleasant to deal with Amir. He responded quickly and effectively. I recommend. The price and quality correspond.

Living the Dream

My wife and I stayed at South Beach Residence for a week. We wanted a quiet place to stay that was away from the touristy areas, which is exactly what we got staying here. The hotel is close to Ling & Son's grocery store, maybe a 5 minute walk. You'll have to get used to not having sidewalks if you want to walk (we did multiple times without any issue) but it is an adjustment if you're used to more formal sidewalks and crosswalks. I told my wife that they're used to it, we're not. I don't believe it is out of the ordinary or unexpected for the local people to see pedestrians along the side of the road. When we arrived, we found a portion of the hotel to be under construction by accidentally going into the wrong room marked 2. One of the buildings is under construction but the rest of the property has been recently renovated. I made up a story of the hotel that I'm not sure whether or not it is true, but it holds up in my mind. I believe that Amir recently spent his life savings to purchase this property which I believe may have been an apartment complex. It was recently renamed South Beach Residences as most of the taxi drivers weren't familiar with that name, but once we showed them where it was, they were able to find it easily. If my story about Amir spending his life savings to own and renovate a hotel, he is living the dream. It is a lot work but if anyone can do it, it is Amir. I give him all my respect for following his dream and having a vision.
