Sunny Isles Ocean Reserve Condo Apartments

We did NOT stay at this unit. Upon arrival, the property was dirty and unsafe. There was visible mold, broken locks and door handles, stains all over the walls, and torn, dirty furniture. The condition of the unit posed a serious health and safety risk, making it completely unacceptable for guests. We left immediately and would not recommend this property to anyone.

No help from building or property manager Was offered for cleaner to come the state of this unit was not something that could be fixed with a clean ! It is NOT unacceptable condition

The location was excellent, and the apartment was very comfortable, clean, and well-equipped to meet all our needs. We would definitely stay here again on our next visit to Miami.

Rooms were clean. The host was kind enough to provide 2 pack n plays for our kids. Easy walk to the beach. Some beach equipment was provided.

The location was fantastic—just a short walk to the beach, making it incredibly convenient. The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. It was also well-equipped with everything needed for a beach day, including chairs. Additionally, the manager, Janet, was extremely helpful, providing excellent guidance and promptly answering any questions we had.

It’s was really nice place. Really close to the beach

The property was clean and had everything we needed for our stay.

I have always stayed in hotels when I went to Miami Beach, but since I needed 3 bedrooms this condominium in Sunny Isles came up as an option when I used Booking.com. After reading the reviews of all the condominiums and hotel rooms, I settled on this condominium. This was a good choice for my friends and I as we had advantages such as free parking, a kitchen, a balcony, two bathrooms, three bedrooms and a pool that was surprisingly not crowded. We were always able to get lounge chairs at the pool. It was a short walk to the beach - about 5 to 10 minutes which included crossing Collins Avenue at 193rd Street. The other advantage was that the property manager responded quickly to my text inquiries. Additionally, with respect to a condominium versus a hotel room if something stops working such as a dishwasher, you can’t get another room as it is a condominium. It would have to be fixed while you were there if needed for your stay. You just need to be aware of the differences. Also, just like a hotel room you get what you pay for. Meaning the location, appliances, pool, amenities, etc are usually tied to the price.

THESE ARE THINGS TO BE AWARE OF NOT REALLY COMPLAINTS. Third bedroom: does not have windows, or air conditioning, is small, bed not as comfortable as the others. It has access to the second bathroom and a ceiling fan. Balcony: faces the guard station so you see the cars entering. And people are below if they walk past you so not private. Parking: is free, but it is a walk within the compound. However, not too far. Also, after check out you can’t use the parking spot. You need to valet it for $20 with your luggage if you are staying to enjoy the pool before you go to the airport. With respect to your luggage, after checkout, you can also pay $10 per piece to store it. There was a $40 resort fee which I paid upon arrival. Public beach access is very close and we found we could also rent chairs at the Ramada Inn/Marco Polo hotel for $10 per day. We chose that option, but Beach chairs were available at the condominium. With respect to a coffee maker, I would have preferred a Keurig as I have at home. There was a 4 cup coffee maker with filters - I purchased coffee and it was good for me. Two of the coffee cups had tiny chips so just be careful as house keeping can’t catch it all. There is a cafe and mini mart at the site. Prices are higher than a supermarket, but worth the convenience. We had a car, but walked to a couple of restaurants which were not too far and not too close. They were under a mile. We crossed Collins Avenue and went right so that a sidewalk was always available. There are traffic lights so safe to cross Collins Avenue, but you have 25 seconds to cross. Another point is that many restaurants that are frequented by foreign tourists in Miami include the gratuity ranging from 15-20%. They call it a service charge. Some wait staff don’t mention it and tell you they do not get all the money, but it is a gratuity and when I was a waitress we shared our tips with the bartenders and busboys.
