Amir is a fantastic host. Checking to make sure everything is going well and making recommendations about the activities on the Island. Checked in just enough but wasn't interrupting our vacation at all. He also gave us a great price on a rental with a contract and insurance. The car was brand new. He also has a very nice SUV for those who need a little more room. A small car was perfect for the 2 of us. He is in the process of completing renovations but there was no noise that bothered us at all. He is educated, well spoken, and speaks several languages. He is a younger guy with a lot of hustle and great business ideas and it's refreshing to see someone working so hard to be successful. The pool was beautiful and very clean. There is no microwave yet but there is a gas cooktop, fridge, coffee maker and some cooking utensils. Nothing super fancy but we made eggs for breakfast and they were delicious. The room was clean and the bed was comfy. There were also 2 chairs and an umbrella to take to the beach which was a nice touch and saved us money at the beach. We will stay again when we go back (this was my 3rd time on the island. Stayed in all inclusive in Palm Beach before). I wish this place had been open 2 years ago.. would have saved me thousands! There is also a very friendly stray dog named Bobby who has "gotten to the soul" of a very soft hearted person who is renting long term and he takes good care of him.

We stayed 9 nights and really enjoyed this property. The photos accurately represent the place. We weren't looking for a resort environment (did that last year) and didn't want to be in a large, crowded establishment, so this place was perfect for us. It's not a resort, so don't expect many amenities (if that's what you're looking for...) but it has a lovely pool and patio area, both exceptionally clean and relaxing. And they do supply beach towels as well. The unit itself was immaculately clean, tranquil, and comfortable with a separate living area and kitchen, comfy bed and linens, and no mildew or musty smell inside. The location is very close to Eagle and Divi beach (especially if you have a car) but it's also walkable (as we did each day, with the only caveat being that there are sometimes only a few narrow sidewalks for pedestrians, so you have to get used to walking close to traffic whizzing by you). There are also two of the best grocery stores very nearby, a few restaurants, and a great bakery off one of the side streets. But the best thing has to be the owner and his uncle. Wonderfully decent, friendly people, very oriented towards making your trip a smooth and optimized vacation experience for the guests. I'd recommend South Beach Residence for those who want to be away from crowds and noise, and yet close enough to the action. Thanks, Amir & Ramses! Keep up the good work there!

We had the pleasure of staying at South Beach Residence for 1 full month. The accomodation was clean and plenty of room for two people. Beautiful pool! It had everything we required for our stay. The location is very convenient and easy to navigate to the beach, the golf course, grocery store and restaurants. We were grateful we rented a car as we were able to go all around the island. Amir was our host and one special man. He was helpful, caring, responsive and always pleasant with a warm greeting. We always felt safe. We definitely recommend Amir's place.

Clean, has everything you need for living in the room there is a folding beach chair and a beach umbrella. Very convenient parking right at the entrance, opposite BMS tour, if you want to explore the island and arrived without a car. Only 5 minutes by car to Eagle Beach, 7 minutes to Palm Beach. Market within walking distance or 3 minutes by car. Of course there is no view of the ocean, but there is a pool, and if you are by car everything is nearby. It is very pleasant to deal with Amir. He responded quickly and effectively. I recommend. The price and quality correspond.
