Bedroom in 712. King suite style room
Jen O.

I've stayed at a few Element hotels and really enjoy the amenities they offer. They are typically bright and airy and have more of a eco-friendly millennial vibe. They feel very homey as well. This one in Doral isn't my favorite; it's a bit older and could use some paint touch ups etc. but I'd still pick an Element over most other options. There is (always) a filtered water tap in the kitchen, in addition to the regular water faucet, which is awesome. Bed is comfortable. Room was clean. Water pressure was great. Shower was really large in 712 at least. One elevator was down, so it took a while to get up/down. Another customer told me he stayed here a few weeks ago and the other elevator was down so perhaps they have some larger repair issues, but one was working at all times during my stay so it wasn't much of a problem. Parking was easy and the lot felt very safe. You can use the pool at the Aloft (another Marriott property) next door. All of the staff members I met during my stay, from the front desk to the omelette station guy to the housekeepers were all very pleasant and friendly. Breakfast was pretty good! There was waffles one day and egg white omelettes another, in addition to cereals, muffins, toast, frittatas, coffee and juices. I missed the evening receptions each night sadly. There is also an attached restaurant but it's only open Wednesday to Saturday I believe. The gym at this location is wonderful. Two treadmills weren't working one morning but there are ellipticals, bikes, a handful of weight machines, yoga mats, yoga balls, and a weight rack. It's more robust that most other hotels I've stayed at. I will very likely stay here again as the next closest Element is downtown and this was easier with traffic!

King room

I did not like this hotel. 1. To get to the registration desk, parking is minimal. I had to park in the regular lot and walk back. If it is raining, you may get very wet. There is no roof in order to load, or unload your vehicle without getting soaked. It is South Florida afer all. It rains a lot. 2. One elevator was broken and the other had a 2-person Covid restriction. Took forever to get down to the first floor. I walked down the stairs one time, but could not with luggage. Fix the elevator! 3. Don't get a room on the west side of the building overlooking the the avenue. Loud traffic all night long. Worse part is I got the room using my points. I did not pay a dime, but still feel l got burned. Good point: A block from M.I.A. Beer Company. Excellent craft brewery.

This was hands down one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. You definitely get the bang for your buck. Everything at the hotel was brand new and super modern. They have complementary breakfast and complementary beer and wine around dinner time! They also have a gym here that is not your average "hotel gym" I felt like I was at LA Fitness lol Maria and Bianca went above and beyond to make sure my stay was everything and more. This is the ONLY hotel I will stay at in Miami from now on!

We were going to go straight to bed until we saw the shower. Beautiful.

This hotel was a godsend after our flight home from Miami to Denver was delayed by over 12 hours. We had just spent all day in the airport and had a horrible experience with American Airlines. We were given vouchers for a shuttle to take us to the Element Miami Doral hotel. My husband was okay with sleeping at the airport but after I had multiple panic attacks and disorientation from just getting off a 7 day cruise, we accepted the voucher and were on our way. After spending over 12 hours in the airport, we HAD to get out. When we arrived, Luis C made us feel like we could have some peace finally. He gave us toothbrushes, toothpaste, and helped us get us drinks and food with our vouchers. In the morning, we were checked out within a minute and headed to the shuttle. The hotel was beautiful, the room was comfortable, and even though we only got a few hours in the hotel before we had to go back to the airport, we will definitely be staying here again if we end up back in Miami.

Great utility of space in the rooms!

Great hotel in Doral. You can get better rates on Expedia. Clean, friendly & comfortable.

POOL WAS GOOD!
Jackie M.

First time in Miami and after days of deciding where to stay. I picked Element. I loved this hotel, it was very clean!! And quiet. I saw mostly business people there. When I showed up the lady in the front was very nice (too bad I didn't get her name :() They have free parking, free breakfast and free wine (certain days)..They also have a restaurant in which I didn't get to enjoy :(...anyways it was way more cleaner than the Aloft (hotel next to it). The only thing I didn't like was that the restaurant closed early so if you are hungry at 3 am in the morning that means no food for you :/.. anyways I had a wonderful time there.

See all

A wonderful venue for any occasion, in my humble opinion. We were in a clear sided tent which was well illuminated and the air conditioning did not disappoint. The management has contacts for event management, music, food, decor, etc. I do not know if the family brought in their own music and catering or used the venue's, but both were very good. Highly recommend!

Joe is good to work with. But more importantly you need a great planner. Ours was Jessica G. Events. Was very disappointed in a few of their vendors, I'm posting here because they were recommended by the venue and don't have their own yelp page. Belkis floral- beautiful flowers but forgot the tall floral at the alter and the petals. Forgot we didn't want boutonnières. Very aloof when inquired after the wedding. Sagno catering: The apps were not like we had the tasting. The bruschetta was a tiny bit of tomato topping. Looked very sparse, the dates and walnuts were tiny, only saw the coconut shrimp once in the passed apps. The steak on the main course of the plated dinner was very small nothing like the tasting we had at secret gardens. Chicken Alfredo tortilini was not plated as we tasted. Everything was smaller portioned than our tasting. We did not go with Sagno for the cake since I did not like their cake. We ordered tiramisu, the tiramisu was not made with marscapone instead cream cheese, obviously cheaper and not the right taste. The Miami events- awesome all the way around! The violinist was amazing, the dance floor beautiful and great DJ. Drinks by us- great to work with but only around 8 bottles that were average brands. For a full open bar not sure it would be enough for a lager crowd. There are a lot of additional costs to the all inclusive price. I did feel a little nickeled and dimed about the early access for the brides room. 765.00 to get in the room 7:30 instead of 10. The room is empty and I thought that to be a pricey add on. Beware there is construction on the grounds and the bride and grooms rooms need some updating. All in all the wedding was amazing and like the backdrop of Secret Gardens.

Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing from the start. When we walked in, there was a noticeable moldy/musty smell, which immediately made the atmosphere less enjoyable. Several items that were advertised as part of the Miami Spice lunch deal were actually not being offered for lunch. There was only one waiter on the floor and one bartender, and it showed. We waited over an hour for our food, and unfortunately, when it finally arrived, it was mediocre. It was especially disappointing because my friends had driven about two hours to meet up, and we were hoping to have a great Miami Spice experience. Sadly, the food, service, and overall atmosphere did not live up to expectations.

When searching for venues, the Curtiss Mansion was the first and only venue we ended up visiting…read more We got married here and couldn't have chosen a better venue. It's hard to summarize all the amazing aspects of this venue. The grounds and Mansion are gorgeous and transport you away from the hectic hustle and bustle of Miami. It is truly a special place with rich history.  The mansion has multiple beautiful locations, for ceremonies, receptions, and photographs. We had our ceremony in the grove at sunset, and it looked absolutely magical with the bistro lights hung in the trees. Our reception was in the courtyard, which is gorgeous in its own right, and with it fully decorated it felt more like we were in the Mediterranean compared to Miami.  The Mansion crew is amazing!! Sherry and Javi are the BEST!!! We had the wedding of our dreams, which would not have been the same with out this location or Sherry and Javi's help. The pair were so easy to work with, maintained flexible schedules for visits to show off our venue to visiting family and friends, and exuded with passion for the Mansion. The crew so clearly cares deeply about the mansion and its history, you can't help but fall in love with it as well right alongside them. They wanted to make sure we had the wedding of our dreams and worked hard to make sure all the details were in place to make it happen. We always felt like a priority to them and were treated with utmost respect. As a same-love couple, it's not always easy to feel comfortable searching for wedding venues. Sherry and the Mansion crew's support meant the world to us and made us feel safe and celebrated. The closed vendor list at the Mansion was very helpful in making sure we found high-quality vendors for our wedding. It saved us a lot of time searching and vetting. This place is truly a hidden gem. We recommend this venue without reservation to anyone looking for a magical, historic setting for their wedding or special event.

I originally planned to have my wedding at the Curtis Mansion, but after experiencing multiple…read morelosses in my family, my husband and I decided to elope. The venue meant so much to me that I still wanted to incorporate it into our wedding photographs and preserve a piece of the dream I had originally envisioned. Unfortunately, I left in tears, feeling humiliated and disrespected by an employee named Debbie. I had communicated with Debbie beforehand through phone calls and messages about our elopement, our outfit changes, and the vehicle we planned to use for photographs. Yet, from the moment we arrived, after knocking for approximately 10 minutes, I was met with attitude, eye rolls, and judgment. She questioned why I wasn't ready, despite our previous conversations about changing at the venue. I was standing there with my wedding bouquet, and she even asked whether I was getting married, despite my having explained our plans multiple times beforehand. As a client, I expected the person handling our booking to be familiar with the arrangements we had discussed. I shared something deeply personal with her about losing both my parents and my beloved dog, who I had imagined walking me down the aisle at this very venue. Her dismissive reactions made me feel as though my grief and the significance of the day were an inconvenience. When my photographer asked whether she could hang my wedding dress for flat-lay photographs, Debbie appeared annoyed. Although she eventually permitted it, she then physically removed my dress and placed it on a table. Even these small details became stressful when they should have been part of a beautiful experience. Things escalated when our rental car arrived earlier than scheduled, without my knowledge. Despite having discussed the vehicle beforehand, Debbie called me a liar multiple times in front of my husband and photographer. When I do have documentation that I did tell her there was a car going to be present. I spent nearly an hour of our reserved photography time trying to resolve the situation. And every time I would leave, Debbie would complain about me to my Photographer making my Photographer extremely uncomfortable. We were also locked outside and left knocking for approximately 15 minutes before our photographer had to find another entrance to let us back in. From outside, I could see Debbie on her phone, knowing we were knocking and ringing doorbell. Throughout the session, she would be unavailable when we needed assistance but would reappear to confront me. For a 4 hour shoot included Mansion staff, which I'm assuming that was her , it was CLEAR that she didn't wanna be there. Throughout the experience, I felt as though we were walking on eggshells. With the last hour of my shoot I was in my wedding dress Debbie again yelled me again and pointed her finger at me and kept bringing up the car situation when it was resolved an hour before. I had to ask her if she can yell at me after photographs because I didn't want to lose any more of our limited time. She responded that I was "wasting her time!!" I work in the bridal industry, where I understand how important it is to make couples feel welcomed and supported during such meaningful moments. I would never want another bride to experience the humiliation and distress I experienced that day. She didn't even see us out when we left. I tried to reach out to the original people that I spoke to when I was going to book my wedding at the venue and had a good experience with but it was a very disappointing response! The mansion itself is beautiful, but unfortunately, the way I was treated overshadowed what should have been a special memory for my husband and me. NO BRIDE should leave her wedding photo shoot in tears because of how she was treated. These photographs were meant to preserve a beautiful chapter of our love story, and it breaks my heart that this experience will always be part of that memory.

The food was delicious and plentiful and everyone was pleased, and you know it's not easy to please teenagers. LOL Your bartender, who always had a smile on his face, made an array of colorful and fruity drinks for the kids, all non-alcoholic of course, which they loved as it made them feel grown up. The DJ called me in advance to choose music and he "rocked it". I heard from the kids, so many times, that they had more fun, the music was way better and the food was tastier at the banquet than at their Prom. What a compliment that is! Personally, I can't wait to plan another party at your facility. Again, I thank you for professionalism, assistance, kindness, and advice. I have showed pictures and told everyone what a success the evening was, and the school will be looking into your facility for events next year.

It was about a half hour away and had I known this, I would've stayed at a hotel closer to the cruise port. The staff at the front desk were pleasant and check in was smooth. The room was nice appointed with a lousy view of the roof. The bed was comfortable and the room was also equipped with a Keurig coffee maker. After checking in to the room, I went down to the pool and hung out there for a couple of hours. It was very relaxing, but the water was on the cold side. I was informed that they had a happy hour which consisted of five dollar appetizers at 5 PM at the bar, which is what I decided to check out. There was definitely a language barrier with the bartenders so I had to point to things on the menu. The calimari was rock hard and the worst I've ever had. Once I let them actually feel one of the pieces, they took it away and removed the charge from my bill. Certain glasses of wine were five dollars during this happy hour period, which was a good deal. They do not offer shuttle service from the Miami airport to their hotel, but they will offer free shuttle service within a 3 mile radius of the hotel, should you wish to venture out and go shopping or out to eat. I'm giving it 4 stars for the room and the pool area. Everything else was just very average and for the price I paid for the room, I don't think I would return.
