Best South Beach Hotel.... ever!

Everything from the bar to the pool to the restaurant was great at the South Seas hotel! I have been going to South Beach yearly for the past five years and this is without a doubt the best hotel I have stayed in! Dining and Hotel Staff were a little snooty (who isnt on South Beach) but the bartenders were very friendly! The cleaning crew spoke no english which caused minor frustration, but over all, staff was great. The pool is clean and not freezing cold and beach access is convenient, right behind the hotel. They ran out of towels very frequently but luckily they had a towel nazi there to make sure folks didnt take more than one... lol. The valet/ door man acted as if he was too good to carry our bags into the place, but again, our overall satisfaction with the hotel made up for the snooty south beach locals. Hotel looks just like it does on the photos. Hotel is located in the heart of South beach in walking distance to EVERYTHING. Again, would definitely stay here again and again.

We really enjoyed our first trip to South Beach at the South Seas hotel. The pool is nice and the proximity to the beach is excellent. Also, everything is within walking distance, even with 2 kids in a stroller. Lincoln Road and the art deco district are just a couple blocks. We took a city tour and boat tour and rented bikes another day. We ate at several restaurants and cafes and found them to be pricey, but that was expected. The kids loved the beach and pool and the playground area on the beach on ocean drive. Can't wait to go back, and would definitely return to South Seas. Only thing would have liked in room was small frig and microwave.

Just okay

Hotel was listed as "luxury hotel" but was more like a $50/night road-side motel. Our "ocean view" room did have an ocean view if you stretched your head and neck out of the bathroom window. The lobby looks nice but once inside, it smells moldy. King rooms are extremely small w/bad linens. Bathroom was even smaller w/even worse towels. (Absolutely no wash clothes, which I found somewhat strange.) Barely enough room to clear the swing of the bathroom door. The pool and the beach access areas are the best attributes of this hotel. Check-in clerk was very nice but the outside bartender was just downright rude. We paid about $300 for a night and next time, I'll most definately spend the extra $/night to upgrade to another hotel. This hotel needs many, many updates.

Should be shut down!

My company booked 4 rooms for a convention in Miami Beach since it is only a few blocks from the convention center. So here is a list of "experiences" from our stay. Although it may be hard to believe, there is no embellishing of the facts here. I don't need to. This dump fails on its own merits.
Bed Bugs-One member had bed bug bites from the knees down on both legs.
The halls smell of mold, and the walls are filthy.
Rotten fruit in the closet
Towels so thin that you could read through them
The main lobby elevator is painted with spray paint, fumes evident at various times.
The Valets overcharged us for parking.
There was no cover on the electrical outlet.
The ironing board is big enough to iron a pair of socks.
The coffee lids do not fit the coffee cups.
We caught a man stealing a guests purse by the hammocks. The staff told us this is a common problem. So why doesn't it get addressed?
No washcloths. Really! There are two when you check in. They give one per room after that and even if you request more, they cannot oblige. There
The main lobby elevator is painted with spray paint, fumes evident at various times.
I know some of this is nitpicking, but let's be straight about something. When you spend $5,000 dollars at a hotel or even $50 for that matter, it should be safe, secure, and comfortable, with a staff that pays attention to the details even a little. This place is a DUMP for $250 a night, and should be avoided. Miami-Dade Health department got a copy of this too. -
GOOD VALUE FOR EXPENSIVE AREA
08/04/2007Considering that the hotels on either side of the south seas, cost twice the price. this hotel is trully a great bargain. this is a great hotel, if fun in ...
CONSIDERING THAT THE HOTELS ON EITHER SIDE OF THE SOUTH SEAS, COST TWICE THE PRICE. THIS HOTEL IS TRULLY A GREAT BARGAIN. THIS IS A GREAT HOTEL, IF FUN IN THE SUN, IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR. MY WIFE AND I AS WELL AS MY SON HAVE STAYED NUMEROUS TIMES, AND WE NEVER HAD A COMPLAINT. TRY TO SPEND A LITTLE MORE FOR THE OCEAN VIEW OR OCEAN FRONT ROOMS, WELL WORTH IT.
KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS AN OLDER BUILDING, BESIDES THAT THE INTERIOR IS ACCEPTABLE. THE NIGHT LIFE AROUND THE AREA IS WORLD FAMOUS, VERY CLOSE TO OCEAN DRIVE WITHOUT HAVING TO DEAL WITH THE NOISE WHILE YOU SLEEP. LINCOLN ROAD MALL IS ALSO, ONLY STEPS AWAY, WITH GREAT RESTAURANT AND STORES.
