Huge rooms right off the beach

This is a perfectly located hotel, one block off the beach with beach chair services and right in the thick of south beach. It has very long corridors and is showing some of its age, but it is a great value and the rooms are some of the largest I’ve stayed in in Miami.

Very run down and in need of refurbishment. Has gone down in quality since i last stayed here a few years ago. An erroneous charge was placed on the bill. I could never get through directly to someone and left multiple messages which were never returned. On the plus side the location is great. However I won’t be returning.

Below Average "Four-star" Hotel

Overall we had a mediocre stay here at Z Ocean. Upon walking in through the breezeway, it was very dirty and not setup for use. It appears that some homeless people had slept there the night before based on items/trash left behind. The room was average with minimal amenities (no extra pillows or towels, had to ask for coffee pods.) The biggest disappointment was the "spa" located on our rooftop patio. It was more of a soak tub and not the personal hot tub that was advertised. When we arrived, it was filthy with human hair still on floor of the tub so it was clear that they do not clean these. I would not consider this a four-star hotel and definitely feel misled by this rating. I would not stay here again.

the photos on Expedia unfortunately no longer reflect the current state of the hotel, everything is a bit run down! Staff not particularly interested in guest service. A queen bed for 3 adults😩???! The terrace with the whirlpool unfortunately cannot be used at all as there is so much noise from the next room, probably a broken whirlpool!!! It was not possible to open a window! The supposedly included breakfast for 2 people (there were 3 of us?) is just a coupon for $20, which is not nearly enough, the portion of salmon we ordered is a tiny slice! So you might as well have breakfast somewhere else! Coffee machine in the room but the coffee is unfortunately inedible.

We spent 4 nights at ZOcean and I have to say “not exactly as advertised” as the suite we stayed in had roof access but the hot tubs are not running, the furniture was lacking cushions on the patio, the actual room was in disrepair and the kitchen / dinette had a plastic plat a fork and a knife. Not what you read when you book the “upgrade”. The folks at the hotel are nice enough but the hotel has not been invested in to be at the advertised level for what looks like 10 years. Very disappointed in the accommodations. On the positive side it’s in a great location near dinning and the beach.

Would not buy the food option again though, you can walk outside of the hotel and there are so many bakeries and restaurants within a few steps. Look forward to my next stay here already!
