Our latest stay at the beachfront Grand Beach Hotel was a very pleasant one, we truly enjoyed the days in the sun, the very efficient private beach service, and the bike rides along the promenade. We believe this four star hotel to be an excellent cost x benefit option in expensive Miami Beach. The hotel’s modern and contemporary decor is felt throughout its premises, and follow a minimalistic furniture and color scheme, from the bright and large reception and lobby, to its common areas. We felt the beachfront pool to be delightful during sunset hour, and were quite tempted by the pool-side spa service. Most bedrooms have tremendous views over the sea or to Miami’s canal and boats, they are all good in size and very comfortable, some include a sofa bed which can be quite convenient if you are travelling with your family. If possible book a room with a balcony. Location is good, despite not being walking distance to busy South Beach, it is a very short car drive or taxi ride (there is also a free shuttle). Onsite eating options are not great (breakfast is good though), but make the most of your stay and enjoy the excellent amount of amazing restaurants and cafes in Miami Beach. Please note there is another  Grand Beach hotel in Miami Beach, so make sure you book the one that suits you best.
