    Down stairs bar
    Diamond A.

    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.

    Bed bug bites
    Sarah W.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    Cosmo at lobby bar

    Came to the bar for an event , the event was at the pool bar , very nice space , delicious snacks and professional staff. The lobby bar was also fabulous. Got an excellent cosmo , had good music playing , some good vibe customers around , nice decor . It was safe to walk all around the hotel area . Down to ocean drive and all the stores .

    Size matters the rooms are so small. Reminds me of hotel rooms in NYC. It's so small. Also the beach was blocked off for spring break and so the entrance was quite a ways. I was a bit disappointed in the location aspect in addition to the size. Customer care was great.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    Neon vibes on rooftop pool
    Alysia R.

    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.

    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.

    Does anyone have pics of the king bed ocean view rooms?

    It's hard to take a picture of the room. It's so small you have to stand on the bed because there's no walking space.

    Is there a gym?

    Yes

    How would you rate the noise level? I know it is nearby clubs, but I am old and like to go to sleep at a regular time :)

    We stayed on the 7th floor. It's loud AF when the DJ is playing on the roof top pool/bar area.

My gf and I stopped through here on our way out before boarding our flights later in the afternoon. If you're toting your luggage and not a hotel guest, you will have to find another hotel to store your luggage while enjoying this most decadent brunch experience. Luckily we arrived early enough to our reservations to sort that out. Reservations are a must if you don't want to wait. The restaurant is gorgeous with various spaces designed differently but keeps to the exotic Asian theme. Dining in the atrium near the water feature in the middle with stage for the musicians is where we had our experience. Olga was our server. She brought us our special beverages not available at the bar: Bloody Mary's and endless bubbly in our glasses The offerings here are more than I can name, but there is something to satisfy every craving. The favorite for me is the caviar bar. It comes with all the proper fixings on a blini with Crème fraîche. Do you need a vodka shot to go with? Yes, that's also available also at the caviar station. Fresh raw oysters, clams or shrimp cocktail is available in abundance with everything else here. The ceviche was great. I passed on all the various noodles but had to have some lamb curry and basmati rice- delicious! I had some Peking Duck and leg of lamb at the meat station. The filet mignon and lamb chops was ordered and brought to the table. The leg of lamb and filet were slightly dry but still good. The lamb chops with chimichurri sauce was amazing- nuances of vibrant flavors. Assorted fresh fruits were a colorful collection of enticements. I saw some papaya and enjoyed its fresh, sweet juiciness. I am not a dessert person but had to try the key like pie. Then of course, the matcha dessert is a sitting temptation next to the pie. So, my dessert spoils were more than intended. What the hell right? Lol That was the sweet ending to my Setai brunch. There was so much more such as bread, fried stuff, eggs, bagel station, toast etc. One can only eat so much. I stuck to enjoying my favorites. The experience is pricey but so worth it. It is truly the best brunch experience I've ever had. - better than Vegas and a cruise ship!! I always have to experience a Setai brunch whenever in Miami!

    I love this hotel, the pool, the beach, the restaurants and the valmont spa. We had a great time…read more Please note that the spa reception is on the first floor across from the hotel check-in. You must walk through the lobby and across the outside area. The sauna and the one person steam shower is located here. You Check-in then you get changed into the robe and walk across the lobby check-in area to the elevators. You are walking through the area with all the guests and their luggage in your super large robe that doesn't close very well. I did not enjoy this. Some disappointing things which was not their fault is the parking garage construction noise even on Sundays. The noise took away from my spa experience. They did nothing for the noise control. Also, the SPA requests you must arrive 30 minutes before your treatment time. I got my parking validated BUT we stayed for brunch who also validated our parking but we went over the 4 hours so we got no discount for parking and we were charged the full $35 fee plus tip for the valet. The valet staff was quite nasty telling me we were there too long for the discount BUT each one of those alone qualified for a discounted valet. You can not do both in the 4 hour window.

You'll often see people jogging, exercising, and enjoying the outdoors, which adds to the energetic South Beach vibe. The walk around the area is pleasant, and the overall atmosphere feels fun and relaxed. Overall, the Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel is a wonderful place with great service, good food, and a cool beachside vibe. I would definitely recommend it for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Great service with very friendly servers. I started with a cappuccino, which was nicely balanced and great foam. Then I ordered the Local Breakfast. It came with two scrambled eggs, multigrain toast, home fries, and I swapped the meat for avocado. The eggs were nicely cooked, potatoes had great flavor but were a bit cold and very fresh but I imagine freshly made are very solid. The toast was not bad. Avocado was fresh. Good portion and good prices. My friend and I shared a pancake that was pretty good but lacked a bit of flavor but was still enjoyable. I would definitely come back and try other items as they have an all day menu!

There's nothing like Miami Beach! The water was perfect and it felt so good to just defrost on the sand and dive into the gorgeous turquoise water. After a few hours at the beach, we went back, enjoyed late check out and headed to crunch fitness - which was absolutely worth it! We were able to leave our bags at the front desk while we worked out, grabbed a late lunch, some drinks and then got to come back and enjoy the rooftop pool during happy hour for drinks and snacks until sunset. It was the perfect Miami daycation that we needed!

And the five-star touch continued inside thanks to Melody, the Director of Front Desk, who made us feel like our stay actually mattered. We were celebrating a very special occasion--dinner plans were set, we simply needed a place to spend the night. What we got was an incredible room with a private terrace and a stunning view of South Beach. And as if it couldn't get any better, we were surprised with a complimentary bottle of champagne, which made for the perfect nightcap, and an even better start to the morning alongside our mimosa. If you're staying in South Beach, Dream is more than a name--it's an experience!

Upon arrival, we were greeted by the staff and assisted us to our room after an easy check-in. The room was smaller than expected for the rate, but the view and amenities made up for the size. Conveniently located near the beach and other fantastic eateries, especially the Ocean Grill at the Setai (gorgeous and highly recommended) restaurant. Also a short walk near Park Ave which has other amazing eateries and including cafe and bistro's. The grounds are well maintained with upscale vibe and decor. The lobby bar is cozy with a sexy vibe. My wife experienced the spa which she said was fabulous. Pool has plenty of chairs with umbrellas and staff were courteous, friendly and attentive. It also has some benefits to be a Marriott Bonvoy member which gave us some minor perks with bonus points on spend, complimentary wi-fi, mobile check in along with some property credits which we used for the spa and happy hour at the bar.

His tone was rude and completely unprofessional, even after I explained I had authorization. This kind of behavior is unacceptable and far below Marriott's standards. It ruined what should have been an enjoyable stay.

    Soooo...overall a pleasant stay in spite of my two stars. But here's the thing...if we paid $200 a…read morenight I would rate this a four star. However since we paid tripple that price I have to be way more critical. The staff makes it extra special. They were all friendly and had the "I can do it for you attitude." Kudos to the staff. Our "up-graded" room facing half ocean/city was tiny, a tad worn, had a very nice view, and non impressive toiletrees. The worst part of our room was the side of the hotel we were on. Our room was on the industrial exhaust fans side and it was extremely noisy. Had to keep our balcony door closed to drown out the noise. The location of the hotel, as others mentioned is ideal. Now here is the scary part...we got stuck on the elevator two times. It wasn't a long time but enough to scare me especially since I am very claustrophobic. I ended up taking the stairs to the 9th floor the rest of our stay. They did fix the elevator but this happened to quite a few guests and they didn't shut the elevator. Our complimentary breakfast (free with my Marriott status) was not the best. Breakfast is served in the attached Mexican restaurant which is not owned by Marriott. It is not a buffet. Small menu with the basics. Food was fair. We enjoyed the pool and the short walk to the beach. The pool restaurant has the best hotdogs! And we also enjoyed the quinoa salad.

In a world where hospitality can sometimes feel overly scripted or transactional, this property still understands something a lot of brands miss: people remember how you made them feel. The Standard has such a distinct point of view. Stylish without trying too hard. Wellness-forward without becoming preachy. Social without becoming chaotic. The entire property carries this effortless energy that feels very "Miami," but somehow calmer, smarter, and more human. A few standout people made the stay exceptional: Julian at the pool absolutely nailed the vibe. Attentive, warm, intuitive, and somehow always around exactly when needed without ever hovering. That balance is rare. Ms. Wanda at Lido brought such genuine warmth and grace to every interaction. You can feel that she truly cares about hospitality and people, not just service mechanics. Kaylee at Lido was fantastic -- sharp, personable, fun, and the kind of server that elevates the entire experience through personality alone. And Richard at the front desk may honestly be one of the best "brand ambassadors" I've encountered at a hotel in a long time. Helpful, welcoming, and completely set the emotional tone for the property from the moment I arrived. They understood the assignment. Miami has no shortage of luxury hotels, but very few properties feel like they have an actual soul or cultural identity anymore. The Standard still does. We'll absolutely be back.

The rooms have been thoughtfully re-designed, but still have that cold Miami cinder block feel. In other words you won't do more than sleep in them. The pool area is fantastic with a bay view and plenty of chairs. Lido Grill, the main restaurant, is nicely done and people / pet friendly. Service was good, once you got their attention, which was on you, not them...we had the lobster, fairly priced at $39, but was like rubber and inedible. Sides were a throw away. Drinks were very good. Other points, nice mini bar in room, however NO coffee in room and coffee shop doesn't open until 7 AM. A regular room, facing back away from bay, dinner for 2, minor mini bar invasion (2 drinks) valet, was over $1100. Not worth the cost.

The kind of place where…read moreyou walk into the lobby and instantly feel like you've stepped into a glossy magazine spread. High ceilings, marble everywhere, and a buzz that tells you you're in the right place. What impressed me most? There's genuinely plenty to do for all ages, which is not something you can say about every Miami resort. Whether you're traveling with kids, teens, adults, or a multigenerational crew, everyone finds their lane here. The pool scene is the heartbeat of the property. Multiple pools, each with its own personality -- family-friendly areas with space to splash, quieter corners for lounging, and the high-energy spots where the music and cocktails flow. Service was dialed in across the board: fast, friendly, and always one step ahead. Rooms were spotless and stylish, with balconies that make you want to order room service just to soak in the view a little longer. Housekeeping kept everything crisp, and every request was met with that effortless "of course" attitude. Dining is another standout. From quick bites to full-on fine dining, everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Even the grab-and-go spots felt elevated. And if nightlife is your thing, you don't need to leave the property -- the energy here after dark is pure Miami. But if you're traveling with kids or just want a low-key night, the resort still feels comfortable and accessible. Fontainebleau nails that rare balance of iconic luxury and all-ages fun. It's bold, glamorous, and buzzing in all the right ways, yet still manages to be welcoming and easy to enjoy no matter who you're traveling with. A true Miami classic that continues to deliver. Enjoy

    I would never stay at the Fontainebleau Miami again. We booked 6 junior suites for 12 people for a…read moreproposal weekend and stayed 4 nights, with one room being a full suite -- and the experience was honestly shocking for a hotel at this price point. The Fontainebleau Las Vegas is impeccable, so we expected the same level of luxury and service here. Unfortunately, this location feels run down and poorly managed. The beds literally cave in in the middle, rooms feel outdated, and basic amenities were a struggle. There's nowhere to get ice yourself -- you have to call for it -- except no one ever brought it despite us requesting it multiple times over all 4 days. For a "luxury" hotel, there were also no slippers, no robes, and no 24-hour room service, which was surprising considering the price point and reputation. The full suite, which was the most expensive room we booked, had multiple issues: the shower head was rusted with water barely coming out of several holes, and the refrigerator leaked huge puddles onto the floor. We even encountered very rude interactions with both a poolside employee and a pool restaurant employee. Monday morning, my boyfriend and I wanted to sit in a cabana for literally 10 minutes to eat a bagel and coffee we had purchased from their café because we simply needed shade. The entire pool area was practically empty, yet we were shooed away in a very disrespectful manner. Later, when we went to COTE for lunch, the food and drinks were amazing and our servers were fantastic -- but once again, the front desk staff had a condescending attitude. We were asking what seating was available and discussing options within our group since we wanted a normal sit-down table. After we asked a follow-up question to clarify what wasn't available, the hostess responded with, "Do you want me to show you the tables so you can figure it out?" Meanwhile, the tables, couches, and bar seating were directly in front of us. We were simply trying to understand the wait and seating situation, not asking to be spoken to disrespectfully. What made the experience even worse was management. While discussing concerns at checkout and showing photos/videos, the manager was sitting on her phone while we were speaking to her. I've genuinely never seen someone so unprofessional in a management position at a luxury hotel. On top of that, friends and family tried sending champagne to the suite for the proposal celebration. It became unbelievably difficult. Emails went unanswered, calls weren't returned after multiple attempts, and one person who paid for the champagne had to text us directly asking if we received it -- because the hotel never delivered it. Only after they called again the following day to complain did the champagne finally arrive. Overall, this hotel feels like it stays busy mainly because of conventions and the iconic name, not because of the actual guest experience. The only highlight? The late-night food truck was honestly 10/10.
