Clean and spacious room with a great view of both city and the ocean. For a family of four (2 adults, 2kids) definitely a great choice, since it has a kitchen also. Friendly and welcoming staff. We arrived few hours early and the staff helped us check in early. Great amenities. Very close to Ocean Drive. Loved that this place has 2pools, a gym, hot tub and beach service.

The best aspect of this place is the location, close enough to South Miami by car but not very chaotic. Being right next to the beach is a definite plus, and particularly for people that like running/walking given the path between the location and the beach.

Given rooms can be rented for more than two people, it makes sense that the beach equipment (particularly the beds) account for this. Irrespective of how many you are, you get allocated two beds and if you have more people then you might end up on the sand. They only have three extra chairs in total, which is definitevely too fee, so would recommend the hotel getting many more of these.

The view from the 14th floor was stunning, with a side view of both Miami and the beach. The apartment itself was spacious, bright, and modern, featuring full-size windows that let in plenty of natural light. The kitchen was well-equipped, including a large fridge, and the king-sized bed was very comfortable. Another big plus was the free parking with valet service and the good bus connections to both Miami Beach and Miami. One thing to be aware of: there is no cleaning service provided during the stay, and towels are not replaced. If they get dirty, you’ll need to use the washing machine, which may not be ideal for everyone.

We really enjoyed our stay at Monte Carlo. The apartment was spacious, with a stunning ocean view and a large terrace — truly a pleasure. The building is modern, with direct access to the beach, a pool, and a gym. The room had a kitchen, washing machine, and air conditioning — everything needed for a comfortable stay. The valet service was especially convenient — the hotel staff parked our car, which made daily trips much easier. The location is also very convenient — shops and cafes nearby, and easy access to other areas of Miami Beach. A perfect choice for an oceanfront getaway!

Upon check-in, the room had not been cleaned thoroughly — some surfaces required additional attention. We also noticed that the washing machine and dryer appeared quite old and the washing machine was also dirty and had an unpleasant odor, which made us decide not to use them. We hope this issue can be improved in the future, as everything else was of a very high standard.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Monte Carlo. It ended up being much nicer than we expected. The apartment had plenty of room and had a cute beach/boho design theme. Balcony was excellent, with a view of both the ocean and the intercoastal waterway. Pools and beach were lovely. Its close to shopping and restaurants and an excellent grocery store. When we reported problems with our dishwasher, management promptly sent someone to fix it. When the fix didn't hold they came back and reinstalled a new machine! We were impressed with how responsive they were. We will surely come back again.

I've never rated a property a 10 before but the Monte Carlo is truly exceptional. We arrived at 10 in the morning even though check in wasn't until 4 pm because they will hold your bags for you. They told us our assigned room on the 12th floor wasn't ready but they had an equivalent room on the 8th. So we were able to check in a whole 6 hours early and change into our suits in our room. They also have 24 hour valet service for your car. The condo was spacious and very clean. We had a balcony with a view of the ocean and it was breathtaking. The condo has 2 pools and a hot tub. One of the pools was heated. The beach was down a short palm tree and vegetation pathway which was beautiful. Once you came out of the compound gate, you crossed the small bike/walking path and were right on the beach. We were able to get two lounge chairs and a beach umbrella every day. We never drove the 3 days we were there because within 10 minutes walking distance each way there were numerous great restaurants. Fifi's Seafood on the Beach was outstanding. We had the Grilled Seafood BBQ for 2 -amazing! Love Brunch across the street was great for breakfast. Kalypso Beach at the Wyndham next door has excellent food and drinks. La Cabana Grill had amazing food also. The next block over there is a Publix and a Walgreens. The whole neighborhood felt very safe.

Nothing truly exceptional

The location is outstanding, overlooking the ocean, with easy access both to ocean and pools. At the ocean the hotel provides 2 lounge chairs and an umbrella, making a day at the beach, well--a day at the beach! There is a full kitchen and everything works. The beds are comfortable. There is a washer and dryer so wet towels can be dried without a problem. The balconies are gorgeous with tables and chairs. Like the ocean, the boardwalk is right behind the hotel, so long walks or biking are easy. The pools are clean and well-maintained.

They don't leave salt and sugar in the kitchen like many places do, so you have to buy everything yourself immediately. But there is a Publix and Walgreens quite close.

We traveled with our toddler and loved having the kitchen and laundry. We went to the Publix down the street and got basics for breakfasts and snacks. Loved eating on the balcony! Beach was right there and hanging out was easy. A couple blocks north are great restaurants- we walked 10-20 min to these each night and had no shortage of options. We much preferred the food to options we have had when staying further south. Valet was fast and easy.

The pull out was not very comfortable, there was no drain in the bathtub. Very minor.

Perfect lodging for quiet getaway. Apartment was nice, view was amazing. Staff was professional but not friendly. Asked for a late check out because of late flight, very rigid and inconsiderate. We are pretty self-sufficient, we travel a lot. First time in Miami, would probably pick different area to stay. WiFi needs improvement. Overall we enjoyed our stay. It was a great price for the 1 bdrm apt with the beautiful ocean front view.

Didn’t expect so many children. Hot tub was unavailable being utilized as a warm pool for the children. Staff were rigid and not accommodating. WiFi went out in living room tv, unable to get it to work, call the number on instructions, no answer. Not a lot to do locally. Had to rent a car to explore.

We recently stayed at this property in Miami, and overall, we had a great experience. The rooms were impeccably clean and surprisingly spacious—especially given the reasonable price point for the area. Having a well-equipped kitchen was a fantastic bonus; we found everything we needed to prepare meals, which made our stay feel even more like a home away from home. The views from our seaside room balcony were simply breathtaking, and we loved starting our mornings looking out over the ocean. Another big plus was the complimentary valet parking. Parking in Miami can get pricey, so having this service included in our stay was a huge money-saver. For those who enjoy biking, there were Citibike stations nearby, making it convenient to explore the local neighborhoods. It was also great that grocery stores were within walking distance—perfect for grabbing essentials and snacks.

The only minor downsides were that there aren't as many activities here compared to South Beach, though we actually appreciated the calmer vibe away from the hustle and bustle. Also, the building is a bit older, and some public areas could use a little sprucing up, but the rooms themselves were modern and well-maintained.
