Manana, Manana, manana... Great staff, great vibe, great stay. Checked in for a bachelorette trip and how awesome was it that we were able to be together at this fantastic place that's within walking distance to the beach, restaurants, partying and shopping. We had a suite on the sixth floor and it was ample space for two of us. We visited the Serena for dinner after getting settled in. The rooftop pool is totally instagrammable and the main pool has a really festive pool party. Very clean establishment and pleasant staff. The only thing I didn't like was no microwaves in guest rooms. A couple of us were told that there weren't any but when I checked out, the gentleman told me all I needed to do was ask. read more

Had a great time with friends recently at the Moxy. They decided to do a staycation, rented a pool cabana, and invited me along. Service was great, the food was solid, and the music was fantastic. The drinks could definitely have been a little stronger, but the overall vibe was relaxed and fun. The pool itself is on the smaller side and filled with tourists, but honestly... it's a hotel in South Beach, so that's to be expected. My only real complaint was the kid repeatedly cannonballing into the pool. We don't do that here. Overall, a really enjoyable afternoon and I'd happily go back. read more

Our group of five was excited to check into the Moxy South Beach. The hotel has a fun atmosphere and several unique features that caught our attention when booking, especially the pool with the transparent floor overlooking the lobby and the rooftop pool with ocean views. Unfortunately, our stay got off to an awkward start during check-in. While checking us in, the employee noticed my last name, Gross, and asked if I knew what "gros" meant in French. As it happens, I took French throughout high school and college, so I knew exactly what he was referring to. He seemed surprised that I knew and quickly realized the comment could come across as hurtful. He apologized while laughing and then offered us three appetizers instead of one. I wasn't personally offended, but it felt like an odd and unnecessary comment to make to a guest during check-in. Nobody in our group is overweight, but I could easily see how a remark like that might make someone uncomfortable. The lobby itself is very impressive. Being able to look up and see the pool overhead is a really unique touch. The elevators had a fun underwater swimming pool theme, complete with a pool ladder and underwater visuals. It was a creative touch that fit the hotel's personality. While the concept was unique, the elevators themselves looked a little worn and could probably use some updating. The rooms were definitely on the smaller side, but the king bed was extremely comfortable. The room was reasonably clean, although we noticed a crack in the glass separating the shower area from the room. The room also had a slight damp smell, though nothing overwhelming. The 2-in-1 shampoo and body wash, along with the conditioner, smelled great. I'm generally not a fan of 2-in-1 products, but it was perfectly fine for a one-night stay. Overall, parts of the property show some age, but nothing felt dirty or neglected. The pool areas were probably the highlight of the hotel. Both pools were clean and well-maintained. The tile work in the rooftop pool creates a really cool visual effect, and the views are great. The rooftop bar is a neat space, although two oversized lounge chairs take up a surprising amount of room, making the area feel more crowded than it needs to. The larger second-floor pool with the glass floor overlooking the lobby was our favorite. There was plenty of seating, and the lounge chairs were comfortable. One area that could use improvement was the towel situation. Most of the towels were clean, but we found quite a few with heavy staining. We watched several guests pick them up, look at them, and immediately toss them into the dirty towel bin. The complimentary drink coupons were a nice perk, but our experience at the bar was inconsistent. The first house margaritas we ordered were fantastic and tasted unique. Later that afternoon, a different bartender made what was supposed to be the same drink using the same tequila, but it tasted completely different--more like a standard margarita than the house specialty. Not bad, just not the same drink. We had one complimentary drink coupon and were charged $33 for the second margarita, served in a small plastic cup. We laughed about it, and the bartender joked, "Only in Miami." Later that evening, another bartender made what appeared to be the same margarita for our arriving friends and charged $22. The difference in pricing for what seemed to be the same drink was confusing. We also tried to take advantage of the complimentary beach chairs advertised by the hotel but couldn't locate them. Some guests told us they had found them the day before and confirmed that the chairs were free. However, if you wanted an umbrella, it was an additional $45. In the Miami sun, an umbrella is almost a necessity, so it's something worth knowing ahead of time. Unfortunately, we never ended up finding the chair setup ourselves and didn't use the beach benefit. Overall, the Moxy South Beach was a decent stay for the price. The hotel has a lot of personality, unique design elements, great pool spaces, and comfortable beds. However, a few service inconsistencies and maintenance details kept the experience from being as good as it could have been. It's also worth noting that we've stayed at other Moxy properties, including Atlanta, Louisville, and Columbus, and had fantastic experiences at all three. Those hotels left us excited to try another Moxy location. Unfortunately, this property didn't quite live up to the same standard. Some of the staff could probably benefit from a little additional coaching on guest interactions and consistency of service. With a little more attention to those details, this could easily be a much stronger experience. read more

Loved it! Wow, what a cute place! Very art deco on Washington st. 2 blocks to beach where they provide chairs. Great pool on 2 nd floor outside and a small sunning pool on rooftop with an amazing ocean view! Rooms are small but comfortable and very clean. The entire property is well kept considering its age. Don't forget to check out the skylight in lobby that looks into pool! There is a coffee shop in lobby and Serena restaurant on 2nd floor which was pretty good for lunch. Walking distance to tons of shops and restaurants. Highly recommended! Will be back next time we're in Miami! read more

Stayed here for one night on an award certificate stay and it was a five star experience. We felt like we had to stay on South Beach if we were coming to Miami and this place was the good mix between South Beach vibe but a little more tucked in and set back. Got in early and the room was not ready but they provided us with access to the amenities and a place to store our luggage. Our room ended up being ready earlier than expected. We also took advantage of the free marg vouchers at night on their second story open air bar which was nice. Coffee in the morning was a nice touch too. Rooms probably run on the smaller side but for two folks traveling it definitely felt like enough space if you make use of the storage underneath the bed and on the walls (no closet). Would I stay in South Beach again? No. But if I had to, would I stay here? Yes, and a yes again. read more

Moxy Miami South Beach - Free coffee and vibes in the morning - Hotels Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

Yesterday we were in South Beach looking at various hotels for a future celebration for when our friends from out of state visit. I want them to get a real feel for the Miami and SoBe vibe. So we picked Moxy as one of our selections to check out. We parked at their entrance between Collins and Washington streets. There was valet parking as well as a private lot. As we walked around the 1st floor, we were wowed with the intriguing decor that spoke volumes of love of surrealist art and artists such as Dali, Magritte and Ernst of the 1920s. I also love that time period of art deco from 1920-1930, and there is plenty of it in South Beach. That's why the Moxy appeals to me. We decided to stay and have lunch at their restaurant on the second floor, the Serena. There is a very inviting pool area on the second floor with a rooftop restaurant, the Serena. You can sit by the pool and order food from the Serena or sit at the bar and eat. We enjoyed our visit and will put Moxy at the top of our list. read more

I stayed here at the Moxy for a quick weekend trip! I got in early, my room wasn't ready as yet however I was provided access to the amenities and drink tickets to Serena. Hotel is really lovely and the staff: Louis and Junior were really attentive and made sure I got everything I needed for my stay. The hotel itself is really pretty and Serena has great drinks and food! I wish the rooms were a bit bigger and there was a mini fridge. read more

If you are staying in Miami and need place to stay that is cute, chic, original, and has everything you could need; definitely stay at the Moxy on South Beach. My friend booked a day pass at this cute Boutique Hotel since we had a late flight but came back from our cruise early morning. Perfect opportunity to hang out in South Beach for a little bit and when I saw this hotel, my mouth hit the floor! This is the exact type of hotel that I love and everything about it was calling my name! From the cute decor inside and the cleanliness to the beautiful rooftop lounge area and all of the mermaids signage, this spoke Ieshia. They have a small store where you can grab some essential items or quick bits to eat, a full chic restaurant that serves an array of dishes, a rooftop lounge area with spectacular views, and a cute pool with full service. I cannot say enough great things about the Moxy South Beach. 10 out of 10 if I am ever in South Beach again and need somewhere to stay, The Moxy is at the top of my list read more

Great location. Room was clean and fit our needs. Staff is very attractive & helpful.

So, I went to a networking event at the Upside Terrace at the Moxy Hotel, and let me tell you I'm this close to planning a second wedding just to celebrate there! To the same husband, of course... but hey, any excuse for a party, right? From the moment I walked in, the vibes were immaculate. I kicked things off with a Passion Fruit Margarita and wow. Bursting with flavor, dangerously delicious. I had to rein myself in, but trust me, it was worth every sip. Then came the food... ohhh the food. A full-on Mexican fiesta with chips, guac, tostadas, tacos, you name it. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and basically screaming ¡Viva la fiesta! Add to that some seriously fun music and a sunset view that could melt your stress away. We were also treated to golden-hour magic that made the whole terrace glow like something out of a dream. So if you're thinking of hosting a corporate event, wedding, birthday bash, or just want to sip margaritas while watching the Miami sky light up then run, don't walk to the Upside Terrace at the Moxy Hotel. Trust me, you'll leave with a full heart, a happy belly, and maybe a new life event to celebrate. read more

I had a great time coming here the staff was very friendly and though the rooms are small the experience was very good do keep in mind if you have a car and come here the parking is in the back not the front of the hotel. Overall it was a good experience and they have a down stairs bars and a restaurant at the top where the pool was at which was great so you didn't have to go far to eat or get drinks when your at the pool they also have pool service as well. read more

Stayed here before a cruise. Nice hotel. Cool bar outside and in. rooms are very very small. 2nd time staying. Close to everything

There are bed bugs, at least in my hotel room. The manager ASSURED me they've NEVER had them, but I have 30+ bites on my legs & they have yet to call me back in 5 days, or email. I have sent emails and called every single day since Friday... it is now Wednesday. They said they'd get back to me on Sunday. I got my bites tested and they are indeed bed bug bites. Had not stayed anywhere except Moxy. Hopefully now they'll take this seriously. Also be SO mindful.... The room is the size of shoebox. No moving room if you have 2 beds. Update; They just called me back after seeing this review. Says that after me calling on Friday nobody inspected until Monday but they allowed people to stay in the room until then!!!! They initially said they would unoccupy the room until test came back. So whoever stayed in the room after me , was not issued a new room after the hotel hearing about my issue. It is now Wednesday. They say there is no sign of bed bugs. Use the information as you wish. I had stayed nowhere but here upon receiving these bites. read more

Moxy Miami South Beach - Bed bug bites - Hotels Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

amazing views for the sunset! I went for a event being hosted at the rooftop and they also had a bar and bites available. It was a variety of good drinks to choose from. The bites was made from one of the restaurants on the first floor and was mostly good. The tacos and empanadas were my favorites. It's a nice rooftop that can be relaxing and has a nice view for both sunset and I imagine sunrise as well since it has unobstructed view of the water. read more

What a unique & fun hotel! Came to Miami for a quick trip to show our 17yr old daughter U of Miami and stayed at South beach for a night! This is a Marriott Boutique hotel. The lobby is Decorated so cute w/blue & White flooring & other 1950's decor while playing top 40 music hits. Great walking distance to beach & restaurants. The individual room we stayed in is small but great use of space. No closets yet they have a wall hanger that I've seen before in ski hotels. The shower had a rainfall shower head and the water pressure was awesome. Never ran out of hot water. There is a rooftop bar that had beautiful views of surrounding area but the staff shooed us away at night saying there was a private event. Mind you we went there different times throughout night and there never was an event going on. I gave this hotel 4 stars because the staff could definitely work on their customer service for sure. It was a bit confusing on the check in process at the front desk and when we would ask questions, the staff acted a bit put off. The hotel itself is an enjoyable experience! read more

Thank you Moxy management for the half hearted canned apology response. As if I needed more reason to never stay at another Moxy Hotel I reviewed my bill and was charged $500 for smoking in the room. I explained that neither my wife nor I smoke but was told a sensor mounted behind the TV said I did. I asked for a copy of the "report" but was told it comes from a third party vendor and I would not be able get it. Then I asked for the statistics about the sensor failure rates and was told that information was unavailable After about 5 minutes of going back and forth with the front desk attendant he looked up my account and the moment he saw my Marriott status the tone of the conversation did a 180 and I was refunded immediately. This was just an extension of all the grift, cons, hidden fees and attempted theft that I experienced in the 28 hours I was in South Beach. Stay away from that tourist trap and this half a star hotel. read more

THIS AWFUL HOTEL RUINED MY ENGAGEMENT. My boyfriend brought me here prior to my engagement. He was using Moxy as a place to get ready before our engagement (which I didn't know at the time was coming) and a place to enjoy afterwards. When we arrived, we went to valet and tried to unload items out of the car - the staff outside and valet refused to help us with our bags or unloading. We asked for a cart for our items, they POINTED at one, sitting in the RAIN, literally soaked! We asked if they had a towel so we could wipe it up, the valet staff looked at us, obviously annoyed, shrugged their shoulders and said "I don't know". We went inside, found a wash cloth from the front desk ourselves and wiped the cart down ourselves so we had a way of bringing up our items to our room. But wait... it gets worse. We go to check in, and the front desk staff refuses to use the new Marriott credit card that my boyfriend got to be able to earn bonus points. Even though his email said he could use immediately after applying for the credit card with the digital version, the front desk staff refused to use the digital version. At this point, we were over it and just wanted to get up to the room. When we carted our items upstairs and went into the room, it's WREAKED of chlorine - so bad I got a headache after a few minutes inside. When we called downstairs, they said they would switch us rooms - so we came all the way back downstairs with our items only to turn around and go back up to the same floor. It would have been nice if they told us we would be on the same floor so we didn't have to lug all of our stuff up and down on our own in a semi-wet cart. The next room they put us in didn't smell like chlorine, however, it was totally underwhelming. The "ocean view" rooms are technically ocean view, but the view is nothing like they advertise. You can see the water but only after you look past all the air conditioning and other roof top buildings in front of you. Picture below so you can see what I'm talking about. We were getting ready for our engagement (which I thought was just date night) and the hand held steamer in the room didn't work. We called the front desk, they said they would send an iron up. We waited over an hour and it never came. So guess who had to go to their engagement with wrinkly clothes???? Yeah. Us. After the engagement, I told my boyfriend there's NO way I am going back to this disgusting hotel with rude staff on my engagement night. We went back just to get our stuff and check out - when we got back to the front desk, told them everything that happened and they, of course, wouldn't refund us immediately because 'we stayed too long'. I told them about how my boyfriend had plans to PROPOSE so we couldn't exactly leave and find another hotel since he had a photo shoot to arrive on time for. It's worth mentioning that the evening staff was MUCH kinder and apologetic for our experience, although they didn't refund us there. We've called and explained the situation to Marriott several times and we have yet to get refunded. Pretty crappy for two gold Marriott members who tried to enjoy a really special occasion at their hotel. Never again. Don't come here. ESPECIALLY if you have something special planned. read more

Easily one of the worst experiences I've had at a Marriott. I'm lifetime titanium status with Marriott Bonvoy and have stayed well over 1500 nights at various Marriott properties...this was the worst. I'll start with the positives Staff- everyone was very friendly and helpful Public spaces- pool and lobby were nice Location- can't beat this hotel's proximity to South Beach Now the negatives The room- don't be deceived by the pictures online. The rooms here are ridiculously small. And nearly impossible to walk around in. There was no place for luggage at all. The thermostat only went to 68° so it was difficult to keep a comfortable sleeping temperature. We had a 2 queen room and the edge of the bed nearest this window was so close, you had to sleep with the curtain inches from your face. There was no table, chair, desk or closet. Instead of a closet there was their weird metal rack that was completely useless, you could barely hang a backpack off of it. The only surface area to set a water or your phone on was the nightstand. It was maybe 24"x24" and quickly reached capacity. The bathroom was decent sized, given the rest of the space issues that seems like a poorly conceived idea. Cleanliness- the cleanliness of the room was well below Marriott standards. The phone cord was crusted over with some gunk of indeterminate origin. The power block that should have been on the nightstand was tossed on the floor behind it. Likely put there by a past guest who also struggled with a lack of table space. The floor behind the nightstand was disgusting. The headboard was covered with some rubber cord mesh nonsense, it was a dusty mess. When we returned from picking up food for dinner, the entire 6th floor smelled like an ashtray. Worst of all was the ice situation. No ice maker on the floor. To get ice, you had to take a reusable plastic bag to the bar to get ice. Understand I'm usually very much in favor of reusable items as opposed to single use plastic. In this case, however, it was absolutely disgusting. It looked as though the bag had never been cleaned, and there was puddles of water at the bottom of it creating a wonderful environment for germs and bacteria. There are many other Marriott properties that have good proximity to South Beach. If I'm ever in the area again, I will definitely be staying at one of those instead of the Moxy read more

The location of this hotel is great, and the staff were extremely friendly. That's where anything positive ends... The rest is all downhill. The room was a joke. There is nowhere to put your suitcase, nowhere to put your laptop, nowhere to get anything done. The room completely ruined my experience, and I would never go back to this hotel. It was smaller than the smallest room in New York City. I had several business meetings and was not able to get any work done in the room. If you are traveling on business, I would avoid this hotel at all costs. If you want a place to put your suitcase or store anything, - this is not the room for you. The managers are responding to negative comments saying "please give us another chance... Come back again and try us "unless they knock down the walls and create real hotel rooms. There's no way in hell I would ever go back here. I'm a Bonvoy platinum member and this was a shocking property for Marriott to be associated with. read more

WOW. Absulotely fell in love with this resort. I've stayed at a few Moxys across the nation now but I think this one by far is my favorite. Not only was the hotel itself immaculate and so cute. But the staff was superb! The hospitality truly was exceptional the entire time we stayed here and it made our vacation extra special. I checked in on Friday at 8am and surprisingly they had a room available for a extra fee and it was so worth paying that fee and getting into my room asap. The young ladies that checked me in were amazing! After a 6 hour flight, they're lovely personas made checking in so easy and enjoyable lol! They are great at their jobs!!!! The room was so nice! Worth every penny your paying for. Even just the standard room is very nice. The hotel lobby is so lively. No matter what time of a day, there is always a crowd down there where there is coffee available for free in the mornings and water will be available from the afternoon through the night. Great touch. The hotel bar served some good drinks and the bartenders were supe cool. The rooftop is probably my favorite part of the hotel. Great views and so cute up there. It was so nice we ordered lunch and sat up there and enjoyed our afternoon and meal. Hotel also has a beach lounge where sand chairs come complimentary with your stay. The hotels location was also a very good location in South Beach. Overall, I would gladly come back and stay here again when in Miami/ South Beach. Worth every penny and the service was amazing. Can't say enough good things about this hotel. Thanks Moxy! read more

Never in a million years did I think this was a Marriott hotel. The hotel rooms are extremely small, the bathroom has frosted glass windows all around it, including the shower that faces the bedroom. It's bizarre. They do not have irons in the room -instead they have steamers. Who wants to add steam in Miami? Why not an iron? There are no hangers with clips to hang a skirt on to steam it anyway. The shower door handle is broke and just sitting on the screws. The 2 free beach chairs were nice. I would not want to stay here again. The Marriott quality is just not here. read more

stayed at Moxy South Beach for two different weekends and overall had a great experience. The location is perfect, right in the heart of the action, and the hotel has a fun, modern design. I had a couple of hiccups during check-in, but Nathan at the front desk was absolutely amazing, super helpful and made things right with a great attitude. While the hotel is stylish and fresh, be aware that some rooms, especially on the second floor, may not offer the best views. read more

Moxy Miami South Beach - Hotels Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

This hotel is very poorly managed. The management team was dismissive and demonstrated weak customer service skills. Front desk staff were nonexistent and unhelpful. There is no suitable space to work remotely, no desk in the room and no common areas designed for laptop use. Management appears to misunderstand the core concept of a Moxy hotel and the needs of modern remote workers space and needs. The coffee shop and bar were extremely disorganized, adding to the overall lack of professionalism. The gym is also very small with minimal equipment. Overall, this property does not meet expectations for Miami or south beach and I would strongly recommend staying elsewhere. read more

Do not stay here. It's basically a bed and floor. No place to sit, work... they don't even have a closet. Seriously, no closet. Need to set down your coffee down - place it on the floor. Want your room cleaned? You have to ask 3 or 4 times and then it doesn't get done until the evening. I spoke to the front desk about (very nice people by the way) and there response was, "yeah, we hear if every day." I tried to change hotels with Marriott Bonvoy and they were zero help despite Gold Elite Status. Starting to question my loyalties. read more

My cousin and his wife came to visit from CA and they invited me to hang out with them at Moxy where they were staying. Lobby is immediately breathtaking with tropical deco vibes and it smells SO GOOD! Like a bougie upscale hotel, I wanted to ask them what the fragrance was lol The bartender and bar manager greeted us and were super friendly. Drinks ranged from $15+ and were super creative. The rooftop pool is open till 11pm, the views are stunning!! You can see the ocean on one side, and on the other the beautiful city skyline. We were chillin and the security guard was very polite when they informed us they were closing. All in all good vibes, stunning IG-worthy photo ops, and clean. read more

Love how centrally located this hotel is. Super walkable to all the Washington and Ocean Ave restaurants and bars. They had all the amenities advertised, and the staff was very friendly. The rooms as anticipated were small, but functional. I stayed 1 night, but had a large suitcase for a cruise I was taking. I'd imagine this place is best for a short/long weekend trip. read more

Moxy Miami South Beach - 2 Queen room - Hotels Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

Ok so we came here with the family last Summer to tag along with my wife who was coming for a work conference. This hotel is part of the Marriott Bonvoy chain so I figured it was a safe bet to get a quality stay here. We did have limited options in which hotel we could stay at. But I must say, it was quite a disappointment from what I expected. So the location is very close to the beach, maybe 2-3 blocks away. Granted, its been a while since I've come, but I don't remember South Beach being so dirty. Perhaps it's because I'm older now and I came with a family, but the area reminded me of Hollywood, chalk full of homeless people, druggies and the Marijuana smell everywhere. This may be desirable for some, but not for me. We drove into the back alley entrance so we could valet the car we rented, as that's really the only option for parking. The space was tiny and the valet was full. I was a little concerned about this at first, but it turned out to be just fine. Good service at the valet; the car was never far away and if you call ahead of time, it's usually waiting for you on arrival to depart the hotel. Then we walked in with the family and all our luggage. The check in desk looked like the desk I had in college, as it was small and tucked into the corner of the lobby. The lobby was just a open space room with a couple chairs and couches, the lobby bar and a tiny coffee tienda. The kids enjoyed watching the glass ceiling that was underneath the hotel pool. The laughed and interacted with some folks that were swimming. The decor was casual, trendy, and just like every beach property there was limited space. It also reminded me of a college studio apartment a friend of mine once had. Everything was "on top" of everything else, meaning it's built up, not out. We got checked in and went to the elevators around the wall. Elevators had tile in them, with poolside decor, I suppose to allow for wet guests coming from the pool, but I was not a fan. It seemed dirty to me. We got to our floor and were the very last room at the end of the hall. I quipped to my wife that they probably put us there down at the end because we had kids. We entered the room and I was immediately disappointed. The room is super cramped, smaller than most standard hotel rooms. There was no closet, only a rack on the wall designed to hang things on. There was no dresser, no drawers for clothing so we all left our clothes in our suitcases but there was barely any room to put the suitcases. For the entirety of the trip, we had to scale the walls and beds to walk anywhere around the suitcases. There was literally about 2.5 feet of space between the foot of the beds to the opposite wall. The exact definition of cramped. There was no disposable ice bag. It was a thick, reusable plastic bag. Gross and no thanks. There was no bathroom light switch! The light was on a timer with a motion sensor; however the sensor was not sensitive as the lights repeatedly shut off while we were using the toilet or taking a shower. I showered in the dark every day on the trip and had to ask someone to enter the bathroom to turn the damn lights back on while using the toilet. Every day. There weren't enough electrical outlets in the room. The counter top and sink in the bathroom was tiny and there was nowhere else to place items except the toilet. That was not going to happen so many of the toiletries remained in the suitcases. As the week went on, there were times when the hallways smelled like weed. We did eat at the pool and the pool bar a couple times. The food was pretty good, drinks were ok. The pool was long and narrow. There wasn't a lot of space for the kids to play with the many floaties that the hotel provided for guests. They kept bumping into people while floating around. The hotel staff were fine, friendly and willing to help when asked. I cant recall any issues with them. The bartendars were cool. There are many small restaurants, bars nearby to walk to, if you can stomach the atmosphere. The best part of the hotel was the ice cream shop right next door. It's definitely a young person's area. I love the beaches there, and I'll definitely be back to South Beach, but there's no way in hell I'm staying at this hotel again, whether I'm with my family or not. read more

Was a little worried based on reviews; however this is a cool little spot. The rooms are pretty small; however very manageable and plenty of room for your stuff. Location is good, attached restaurant had quality food and drinks. Pool was nice and relaxing along with roof top lounge area with great views. Staff goes out of their way to accommodate you. Free bike rentals and minutes from the beach. I would stay here again. read more

This hotel was super adorable and very clean! I've gone back and forth about whether to give it 3 or 4 stars so I gave the benefit of the doubt and leaned 4 stars as a couple things to note weren't complete deal breakers that warrant an "average" rating because overall I liked staying here. My first impression when dropped off by my Uber was that it was closed and that wasn't great as it was pouring down rain and I had to run out of the car praying the doors were unlocked; I arrived during the "No Name Storm of 2023". Apparently the address that is provided when booking ride-shares is the address that fronts the main road, however the main entrance is on the back road side with ample covered area and a welcoming entrance. The hotel could have a clearer guide about directions if using ride-share services. Once inside, I noticed how fun and eclectic the vibe was for the decor and ambience and thought it was easily one of the cooler hotels I've seen. Check-in was a breeze, and I loved that a token for complimentary Prosecco at the bar was provided, though admittedly I'd have preferred something different (Pinot Grigio, please?) it was a really nice touch! They also provided a card to redeem for a free appetizer (chips and salsa - they were actually really really good, but that's in a separate review) at the hotel restaurant Selena Rooftop. When settling into my hotel room I was noticing how fun the overall decor was - very Mod. But be warned the room was TINY! I'm a small person that was traveling solo and it wasn't an issue but if you have two people (or dare to have any more than 2) it'll feel really cramped! I didn't love the lack of a proper closet and the weird laptop table on the bed I couldn't figure out where to place but made-do. The bed was fairly comfortable but the outside noise wasn't dampened much although it is an older building. After settling in I wanted to grab a bite to eat after a long afternoon traveling and since it was pouring decided to try to eat at the "rooftop" restaurant. The gentleman at the front desk was kind enough to lend one of the hotels umbrellas as the covering to access from the second floor required going through an uncovered outdoor area - VERY slippery and less than ideal. I'm not sure why they wouldn't allow for use of the other entrance I noticed next to the downstairs bar... a miss for me but not a deal breaker. The service was nice, but seemed a little uninformed about a few things. The elevator had an error message so you never knew what floor you were on, and the uncovered very soaked second floor entrance to Selena felt unsafe and is why I almost rated it 3 stars. So some room for improvement, but Overall I had a really comfortable stay and as a solo traveler I didn't mind the small room, it was close to everything I needed for my trip and very clean. I loved they had a coffee station available in the morning and all the staff I encountered were really friendly. read more

The hotel itself was cool. The rooms were nice but small but I think a lot of hotels are like that now so I wasn't surprised. They have a cool restaurant named Serena, a decently priced coffee shop called La Tiendita, pools, a rooftop bar, the staff is nice and they have great happy hour specials. La Tiendita sells all kinds of stuff to eat like sandwiches, salads, pastries etc...(see pic of menu) The one thing I still just can't get over is a $24 drink that was served in a small, janky plastic cup and I didn't even get a buzz off of it. I guess it was my fault for not asking for the price first. Bar Moxy has happy hour from 5pm- 8pm daily so next time I'll just wait. 710 Liquor Store is a couple of blocks down & Friendz Market is right next door too. I would stay here again bc the staff was nice, Serena had good happy hour specials and they also have Endless Taco Thursdays for $29. The servers, food, atmosphere and the DJ were great that night. read more

Great stay at the Moxy South Beach! Perfect location, stylish rooms that make the most of the space, and Luis at check-in went above and beyond with a beautiful ocean-view upgrade. Dinner at Serena was a highlight--Nicholas behind the bar gave fantastic recommendations and his watermelon margarita was so refreshing on a warm Miami night. Fun vibe, great service, and I'd absolutely come back. read more

This hotel was an awesome choice for our large group of friends visiting Miami for the first time. It's a bumpin' place that had their act together. It's located in more of a touristy area, but a great choice nonetheless. Here's what you need to know: PROS + Great location with Miami Beach, as well as lots of restaurants and bars within walking distance. + We were celebrating three birthdays and the hotel put balloons and birthday messages on the mirrors in each room. Such a sweet touch. + Clean rooms and comfy beds. + Awesome pool with bar/snack service and open lounge chairs. Free for hotel guests and there's free towels there too. + Beautiful rooftop with fun events, a bar, cool seating, etc. + Fun lobby with a taco bar, swanky mezcal bar, and lots of activity. + You get a free champagne and app for staying there. + You get bags for ice from the lobby in each room. CONS + Very small rooms. We did four to a room and there's almost no room for a suitcase. Pack light for sure. + This is definitely a hotel for friend groups and most were in their 20's and 30's. I saw two families in the lobby with small kids and they seemed very out of place. More of a heads up. Overall, we had a great time and the pool alone should sell you on this hotel! read more

Never staying here again. Rooms are incredibly tiny...INCREDIBLY tiny! Good location but kind of weird the main entrance is through an alley. I'm a Marriott Platinum member, I should be getting free upgrades if there's room availability. The front desk said they had a suite available but that he would have to charge me $50 for the upgrade. NOPE....never again. Drinks are highly overpriced, and kitchen closes at 10pm. read more

Moxy Miami South Beach - Hotels Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

Mikey is the best ever!! Love island night was the best!! Also the bar manager is on point!!!

I came to visit The Moxy for the day. I have to admit I found the valet a pain in the bxxx to find. It was so terribly hard to locate, Please explain on your website how to find it, maybe? and add more street signs. I was circling for a while, before I parked at the front of the hotel and went into the reception to ask "how DO I access the valet?" I feel people wanting to visit just the restaurants for example could possibly give up and go somewhere else. Having said that the Serena roof top was super cute. The lobby also offers some nice, unusual art. read more

Unfortunately this hotel really falls short in terms of a nice Marriott hotel. The hotel tries to be really unique and quirky, but I think that it becomes too much. First of all, the rooms themselves are bad. I've never had a room that didn't have any chair or desk or anything besides a bed. The bed itself barely fits in the room, making it feel incredibly claustrophobic. The pool is nice and that's one of the pros of this hotel. The gym is lackluster as they only have a few cardio machines and dumbbells. Be careful of the water dispenser as that shoots water out with the force of Niagara Falls. Hotel has other included amenities in the resort fee such as free 2 hour bike rentals, beach chairs upon request, and complimentary coffee in the mornings. Overall, I was disappointed in this hotel and would suggest they renovate rooms and make them larger with more space. read more
