I booked this hotel at a last minute to be closer to the airport to catch return flight the next morning. When we entered our room, we couldn't believe our eyes. The room was a corner room on the 8th floor (836 to be exact) with entire eastern wall being a sliding door to the deck looking out to the ocean. The southern side had almost a wrap around windows looking across to another taller hotel which had a deck above the garage (4 to 6 stories high) with swimming pool and coconut trees!). So, from the deck, we were able to see the sunset when we arrived and sunrise in the morning. Breakfast was the usual continental breakfast fare but you could also order hot items at an extra cost. My wife decided to relax on the deck viewing the ocean while I decided to take a final walk on the beach.. I was so glad I did, and I encourage everyone else to do at least once at sunrise, because I saw the most beautiful deep blue, translucent jellyfishes. Entering the front lobby was like stepping into time machine and be transported back to its beginnings in the late 50s! Location couldn't have been any better. We were able to drive up from Marathon to Hollywood; have a leisurely lunch and stroll down the boardwalk; and arrive at Sherry Frontenac Oceanfront to enjoy the sunset from the deck and walk along the boardwalk to Locura Marina Peruvian Restaurant, a Peruvian restaurant on Collins Ave, which had an amazing $20 deal for a dinner with a glass of wine, appetizer and main course. After a great meal at a great bargain, we walked down Collins Ave back to our hotel. In one short overnight stay, we were able to enjoy the best of Miami Beach are famous for! Thank you Sherry Frontenac Oceanfront and thank you Booking.com for a most memorable visit.

My wife has a bedtime routine of watching CNN but there was no remote. It took some time for maintenance to bring one up and synch it to the TV and I made sure I could tune to CNN. After he left, we realized the volume control was not working and we could hardly hear. I called the maintenance again and he couldn't fix it. He had difficulty telling us that we had to wait till the next morning for the day shift to address the issue. This turned out to be a blessing as my wife used my hearing aids as a last resort and found out how effective they were.

Everything was very good, the hotel has a lot of sports facilities, you can wash your clothes, board games and a piano. It's not a bad breakfast. There is a bar at the hotel and a restaurant. In general, I liked it very much.

very often,we couldn't get into the room because the electronic keys were broken. When booking the hotel, I booked a room with a balcony and an ocean view, but alas, I got one without a balcony but with an ocean view. Thanks for that, at least.

The staff were amazing. The manager Kay was very approachable and kind and Melinda and Romel were friendly welcoming and very attentive. The breakfast team were lovely. Alot of reviews mention the fact that you have to pay for cooked items but the portion sizes of these and cost is reasonable especially compared to if you eat out and pay tax etc. The complimentary continental is the same as most hotels so even if you purchased cooked items it is satisfactory. After our initial shock of the seeing the property and not wanting to spend the night after sleeping on it it turned into a really enjoyable stay. It is family friendly and if you are looking for a no thrills experience then it is a lovely find. The room was clean and bed comfortable and location is really good with afew shops a supermarket and accessible to transport links of you want to move around. We actually spent most of time relaxing and in close proximity to the hotel as it had what we needed. From entering the hotel and wanting to leave our opinion changed so much as the days went by that we intend to stay again.

The pictures verses reality are very different. Nothing prepares you for how dated it is but once you accept it its fine. It is in the process of being updated which would help if mentioned online. Not sure what the service fee is for. Yes there are beach towels and loungers but not sure why they are charged at the rate they are. It says includes cleaning fee but whilst the property is clean you have to chase getting your room cleaned so not really justifiable.

I enjoyed everything about our and my plus 1 feel the same way. Just in general it was overall amazing 24hr pool and beach access you can't beat with a location that's not far from anywhere and still has a beach view. The bar was amazing (especially the fact that the bartender came on the beach and served me a drink) honestly just the fact that the bar closes at 4 damn near makes up for almost anything music and drinks pretty much all night if you go out then need an after hour spot they have u taken care of

Justvthe mechanical issues with the air conditioner and mybtoilet backed up once but within minutes maintenance came and fixed it all

I almost didn’t stay because of the negative reviews. A few observations. The hotel itself is older; that doesn’t bother me it has a certain retro charm. I paid extra to stay in an Oceanview balcony, which has been renovated recently and was delightful for the price. It was well worth it. My room was clean and comfortable. The view was amazing and you didn’t get the sound of the traffic from the street only the beautiful sound of the waves. The woman at the front desk I believe her name was Madelyn was super helpful and sweet. My room was ready early and they allowed me to check in early. No problem and no up Charge. The pool is large and lovely. It was clean. It is an older hotel in the bottom of the pool has some paint wear which people might interpret as dirt, but you can definitely tell from the balcony that the pool itself is clean. The location is fantastic for somebody that doesn’t want to rent a car. The beach is great and there’s a walkway between the hotel and the beach for biking or walking. There are plenty of restaurants in walking distance. I am definitely coming back!

I really can’t say that I disliked anything. My room was close to the door for housekeeping so there was a little bit of noise when they came in and out, but I got used to it.

This a good location, walk directly to the beach, you can enjoy the beach with hotel reclining chair set up. The location very comfortable, it is near all shops and restaurants. Good vacation!

There was no safety box in room, until I asked for and they brought one in and it was not attached to the wall or anything, it lay on floor, it is very light and you can carry it easily. I did not dare to put things inside this box. The day 4, house keeping took all towels out and did not replace any. I had to walked down and ask receptionist twice after I tried to call from room, no one answered!

My kids enjoyed all the amenities, keeping them entertained the entire time. I loved working out downstairs—it was a full gym, and I immediately hit the glute room, which was my favorite!

I was disappointed that Housekeeping never cleaned our room, even after I informed the front desk multiple times. When I politely asked two housekeepers directly, they said they were busy and promised to come back, but never did.

So many amenities - free beach chairs and umbrellas, nice pool, games in the lobby, bar, restaurant, included continental breakfast (cheap to order omelets etc from kitchen like $3). Staff always on site and people cleaning, sweeping etc. Great location and ON the beach. Cant beat it. Will stay again. Check in sucked- it was busy; requested early check in when I booked ahead of time and that wasn’t gonna happen. Our room wasn’t ready until after 4.

I loved my room. I had a ocean view balcony and it was beautiful. The air was not working properly but there was no need for it with the fan and balcony.

Check in is at 4p and I was aware of that. I got there about 10am and asked for early check in when I booked. My room was not ready til 4pm on the dot. I booked a few people that came after me and they got their room before me. It was crazy and I was upset. They have breakfast but eggs and bacon have to be brought separately. I didn’t know that and had to go back to my room to get money.
