Mid Beach

We still enjoyed our stay overall to escaped the winter nor’easter in New England. Pro’s: - Window view from the bed waking up every morning was beautiful view of the sandy beach & ocean. - Location was great being mid beach. Not too close to all the chaos of South Beach, but close enough to enjoy all the restaurants & still find public affordable parking if you don’t want to use the available valet service for parking at the resort. Also Citi- bike rentals available 24/7 were conveniently located 2-5 minutes walking distance. Enjoyed the bike rides along the board walk & to restaurants if you don’t want to drive in traffic or look for parking. - Hostess, Marie was receptive, pleasant, quick to respond to messages. - Building has 3 elevators. Always a short wait without lines for the elevator. - Available coin laundry machines on our floor. 2 washers, 2 dryers - Kitchen has adequate supplies of plates, glassware, utensils. - Pool & beach literally just steps from back door entrance Con’s: - Building is outdated & needs many updates. Carpet hallways smelled bad. - Walls to room is very thin & can hear loud sounds in hallways & neighbors. - Unit has decent updated furniture, but trims & electronics needs updates. TV doesn’t work well, picture on screen was distorted (internet connection issues or just needs replacement) - Bathroom is very small, needs updates, & better cleaning. Bathroom vent fan doesn’t work, humidity build up, & bring some citrus magic odor spray. Drains has sulfur, rotten egg/ sewage smell. We bought bleach & poor it down the drains. Removed the sink drain odor, but every time initially turn on showers, still could smell the sulfur (maybe just Florida’s water). Also visual rotten trims & bottom of bathroom door due to humidity? - Water pressure is reduced when neighboring units flush their toilets - Bed mattress wasn’t the greatest. Has no mattress cover besides thin bed sheets. Has a 4-5 inch memory foam topper that was soft & kept sliding off to one side. (Just preference, we prefer a firmer mattress) Hope this helps for those looking for an honest review, but as always, this is subjective. Every posting will have photo shopped pictures that sugar coat everything! :)

DONT BE FOOLED BY NICE PICTURES

Did not sleep one minute each night, the building is so loud. The lobby and building smell and are completely dated. The bathroom in the pictures is not represented accurately. It is dated and tiny. The room it self was fine, but not as nice as the pictures. It is smaller and dated. I would not stay at this place again, no matter what room it is. Its not a nice place. The pool is dated and not even nice.

Recent stay

We were disappointed overall with our stay. Pros: -Our room was very clean. -Location to the beach and ocean view as advertised. -Owner of room was very pleasant to communicate with over email. -Cost seemed reasonable. Cons: -Photos of room and facilities were misleading. This hotel is very dated and in need of upkeep. -Hallway smelled stale and of marijuana and in need of cleaning and upkeep. -Lobby staff not friendly or helpful. -TV was stuck to one channel. Tried to get this resolved, lobby personnel were not helpful at all, and although this was communicated to the owner they were not able to resolve the issue. Lobby personnel finally admitted to not having a maintenance person until the day we were due to depart and that maybe we should buy batteries. -Really nothing around to do in the area in terms of decent restaurants and other activities besides the beach. In all our years of using VRBO to book a stay, this is the very first time we have felt so disappointed with our choice. We would not return. .

Nice apartment at Casablanca condominium

Everything was good, since the communication with the host to the room. The ladies at the front desk were kinda rude at the beginning the same as one of the valet parking guys. The condominium has a weird smell on the hallways, they should look out for that, smells like a old kitchen. I even have to get a Glade for the room bc you can feel the smell from the inside. The house keeping team shouldn’t be knocking doors at 8:30am showing me their wrist watch. I know at what time i have to leave. 5 Stars only for host and room. The condominium/hotel deserves 3.0

Perfect location for weekend getaway!

We ha a recent Fri to Tues stay and could not have been happier! As it was spring break we were looking for a quieter atmosphere than South Beach but with beach access and within walking distance to shops, restaurants, etc. This property was perfect!! The communication with the owners was great and check in information was provided timely. The property was definitely dated with some wear and tear to the room, common areas, etc, however everything was clean and the price was perfect! We spent most of our time on the beach, which was a quick walk from the room. The beach chairs and umbrella were a great added convenience as well (although glad we brought our own beach towels along as the two that were provided were a little small and thin). Bikes were easy to rent at a nearby location and the path behind the property was perfect for walking and biking. There were several good restaurants within walking distance as well as a convenience store across the street and Publix just a short walk away. And the bed...we have never been more comfortable while sleeping away from home!! We had a great stay and recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing and affordable getaway!

Amazing beach

We had a similar experience to Thomas M. The beach was nothing short of amazing. Beautiful views, white sand, absolutely lovely. It was also very nice to have chairs available. Accessibility of the beach is a breeze, just passing through the back gate. We had a similar experience with noise above us but it was quiet by midnight and being on vacation we were up later anyways. There are signs of corrosion from salt water but keep in mind this is a classic building, it comes with the age and charm. Overall Marie was an excellent host and we had a great time.

Excellent host...so much not in host's control thus a 5 Star Rating.

I've read many of the reviews prior to selecting this site. Many prior reviewers' grievances involve qualities that Marie had no control over. For example, the last two nights of our stay, we had a domestic situation occur above our unit. The noise lasted many hours into the early morning. Property management were notified. But, it continued the next night. Keep in mind, this property is older. More, it's on the beach! SO? The saltwater is quite corrosive. You'll find evidence of this throughout the property. Again, the hosts can't control nature or change the laws of science. (They may want to install a vent into the bathroom to reduce moisture.) The enterior of the building smells moldy. Again, not a host issue but may be relevant to those with URI or asthma. Let's talk about the bed!!! It was amazing! I thought I had the best bed at home. This bed certainly was on par or exceeded what I have. It was perfect for me. As for Marie's responsiveness, it was stellar. There were a couple of items that we requested, namely, a broom to sweep the room and keep it tidy. I notified Marie and she was on it! Later we noticed that there were no trashbags. Again, Marie provided options. The location is excellent if you want something quieter than SoBe. The beach is truly accessible. More, the hosts have chairs and umbrellas available in the room. Most convenient! I hope enjoy your stay.

Great vacation spot!

My husband and I enjoyed our time in Miami Beach! The room was nice and clean. Our only complaints were the hallways of the actual hotel smelled like cigarette smoke a lot of the time, and we wish there was a mattress topper on the bed (it was a little firm and you can feel the springs). But overall a great stay - we really enjoyed the beach and pool area.

Great location!

The property was very clean and there were beach chairs and umbrella which was great. We loved walking on the boardwalk which is accessible at the back of the property and we rented bikes too. The beach is beautiful and we liked that the area was so much quieter than South Beach but there were still restaurants around that we could walk to. There is a free trolley that goes up and down Collins Ave which we used to see other parts of Miami Beach and there is also a bus to Miami airport. We did not need to rent a car which was great. There is a breakfast/lunch cafe and a convenience store across the street which we appreciated. There is also a Publix within walking distance. We had a very enjoyable time and we would definitely stay there again. The owners were great to communicate with and responded to any questions we had.

Cute place, great location!!

Overall, this condo was good for what we wanted it for! The proximity to a convenience store (across the street), some restaurants, and a grocery store was awesome. The view from the room to the pool and beach was perfect to look out to every morning too! Thank goodness for valet parking there, other parking is definitely hard to find in the area. Only a few negatives about our experience. For one, the stovetop in the room did not get very hot for some reason, so we unfortunately couldn’t cook some food we wanted. The building is definitely a little outdated and the elevators were fairly slow. Lastly, the power was unfortunately out for a day and a half during our stay, but at least we had the beach and pool to go out to during the day! If you’re looking for a nice little beach vacation/getaway, this is a perfect spot!

Wonderful Property

We really enjoyed the property they have a beautiful pool and out the gate, you are right on the beach. If you want to walk, run, bike the boardwalk is right out the gate also. You are required to valet your car every day which was kind of cool. Just like the rich bring the car around. Our one only thing we have a negative with is they do not provide enough toilet paper and garbage bags. You can get more but you will be charged extra for it. The area it is located in reminds a lot of New York. It is easier to walk to everywhere because parking is so limited. We loved our stay very much and we will be back.

location 3 stars for the amenities in the Building

Louis and Marie were extremely helpful and responsive. Location wise it was great! The beach was quiet and we could always find a spot! A few restaurants well within walking distance if you know where to look (most seem to be in hotels or condominiums). South Beach proper was about 4 miles down the island and was easy to get to. The room was such a steal for the location, outside the pool exit was the boardwalk and then the beach just beyond. Everything was very clean both in the room and the building was as well, people seemed to be abiding by social distancing rules posted and we never had a noise problem once we got back to the room at night. Check in and out was a breeze, I just gave my name and the front desk had all of the paperwork completed already. The view out the window from bed is so beautiful and you could get a really good idea of the days weather first thing looking out. The only negative thing I can say about the room is that the pillows were much too thick for my liking. As far as the Casablanca goes, I’m sure at one time it was very nice but things are fairly rundown, the pool is as far as we could tell not heated (it was cooler than the ocean in February). The laundry situation was frustrating with the fact that it was quarter operated with no place to get quarters in the building and the front desk did not have any suggestions besides the bank down the road. The coin return on the dryer did not work either when it wouldn’t start. The building WiFi was essentially unusable while we were there. Once connected we couldn’t load anything without phone service so we disconnected from it for the week. Overall we loved South-beach and will be coming back again!

Nice little condo

The overall building is a little outdated and needs major TLC. The condo itself was nice and cozy. We had issues with the drainage in the bath tub, and the owner was very responsive and took care of the problem. This condo is located on the norther side of Miami, so its far from all the south beach happening. You can always rent citi bikes and take a ride. There is a grocery store and lots of restaurants up the street so its convenient to everything else.
