Everything was fantastic. Front desk personnel were very helpful and accommodating. The owners of the room were super nice and very responsive, they even left extra towels at the desk for us. There is easy access to Ocean Drive and the beach is barely a three minute walk away. The room was great, very spacious and clean. Having a fully stocked and operational kitchenette was especially nice and a great way to save money on meals. One critique I do have is that the shower curtains were very short allowing a lot of water on the floor. Wow, almost forgot to mention the rooftop pool and bar! What a nice touch to have a pool that looks out over the entire beach. Overall I give this place a 12 out of ten. We have found our South Beach go-to and will definitely be back.

Room was advertised as top floor balcony suite with rooftop pool. Upon check-in at 4:00 there was a sign that pool would close at 5:00 for entire stay due to private party. Our room was also 2 buildings away from the pool. Room was on 5th floor with elevator out of order part of the day.

This was the worst hotel stay I have had in Miami EVER!!! The property is privately owned now and the “host” of our property was terrible! The air conditioning in one of our rooms wasn’t working properly, and instead of trying to accommodate us and make sure that we were ok the “host” (his name is Rob) gave me a hard time about being uncomfortable in a room that was 86 degrees. I will never stay at the Strand again and I wish there was more I can do to warn people regarding this property!

Lower your expectations
Upon arrival the elevator was not functioning, so we had to carry luggage up 3 flights of steps. It worked for a bit, but was down again when we checked out...so down 3 flights again with luggage in tow. The reception area was musky, and more intimidating than welcoming. The stairwell needed attention, paint was peeling from the rails and musky. The pictures are much nicer than the room actually was and the size was exaggerated. Mine was not 800sft. The room is just okay, but not worth what I paid each night. The bed is ultra firm. The AC is full blast or off...there is no adjusting the thermostat although we tried, so it is sweat or freeze...or keep flipping the switch. As far as the sound, I was forewarned that there would be loud music, but was told it wouldn't be too bad from where my room was located. Not true. The music was extremely loud...like I was front and center at the bar...and it went on all night!!!

Great location, for young couples without children
Great location, not recommended for young families. The elevator was not working which was very disappointing as we were staying on the third floor. Rooms are in a different building from the Checkin location, sandwich between two lively bars.

I had an utterly disappointing stay at the Strand Ocean Drive hotel. The beds were supposed to be queen size, but upon neasuring them, they were not, and when I complained, I was told that I was wrong! Based on the pictures that I took, I became convinced that whomever else stayed in this room just went to sleep and didn't care to check facts. The main reason for choosing this hotel was because it advertized Queen beds and other places advertized double beds. To add insult to injury, the shower felt more like a claustrophobic torture chamber due to the laughably low ceiling height (I'm 5'2 and I could touch the celing while standing in the tub). As if that weren't enough, the water pressure in the shower was akin to a feeble trickle, making it impossible to properly rinse off and essentially feel clean. I couldn't wait to leave to take a real shower. The cherry on top was the host's infuriating refusal to acknowledge any responsibility, instead insisting that I was somehow mistaken in my dissatisfaction. Save yourself the headache and steer clear of this establishment.

Like that it’s right next to the beach. However one thing I did not know & was upset about is there is a server fee that is added on every bill in the area. I wish someone at the hotel told me this was a thing upon checkin, as I was double tipping for a few days before learning from an another customer the tips were already on each bill. Sadly I didn’t see it before & trusted the system & just thought it was more expensive in Miami & more specifically at the beach

This property was in the heart of everything surrounding South Miami Beach. Also my room felt like a cozy apartment and rooftop pool was cute with nice views. I stayed in building A so I did not hear noise from the Bar below. I actually highly recommend building A. This was a last minute pick that actually work out for my mom and daughter getaway.

The room was in an amazing place, right in the middle of everything fun happening in Miami Beach. Right on top of a drag bar, which definitely meant some late nights were had, but I would 100% stay here again.

Property room A503 needs serious bathroom improvements and a heating system that works. The bathroom needs a shower stall. It has a small round tub with a circular curtain that was not satisfactory. It was very difficult to engage the spray hose, and there was no way to hang the hose up for hands free washing. There was a shower head aimed straight down in the middle, that could not be activated- yet it dripped cold water while showering. Also, the hot water faucet doesn’t work. On the morning of 2-23-34, there was no hot water at all in the room. Additionally- the heater never worked, even though the fan ran and the thermostat indicated it was running. This room needs to be closed until a shower unit is installed, the heater is fixed and it has continuous hot water.
