National Hotel, An Adult Only Oceanfront Resort

The overall stay was fine, but considering the $700 a night, could have been a little better The good: 1. The room a good size and the bed and pillows were extremely comfortable allowing us one of the most restful resort stays, significantly better than others. 2. The shower included a separate shower wand, very appreciated and rare to find. 3 The pools and surrounding outdoor areas were clean and well equipped and and outdoor staff was attentive and pleasant. 4. The AC in the room worked great. 5. Great location very walkable to numerous restaurants, shops, beach, etc. 6. Very nostalgic decorating reminiscent of 50-60s Hollywood, unique. The not so good: 1. The heater in our room didn't work at all. One night came in and 65 degrees wanted it a little warmer, switched it to heat, but the vents continued to blow cold air. So had to turn off AC and extra blanket. 2 the bathroom a little cramped and worn. but expected for an older hotel. However, the lack of an exhaust fan unacceptable. 3. Water pressure was very poor especially when using that lovely shower wand. 4. Blow dryer stopped working the first day. Told the front desk late that morning around 11, along with a towel requests since no house keeping yet. Came back from pool later that day and still no blow dryer, towels or house keeping. Had to call again, and about an hour after that finally recieved both. Summary: would consider staying again, but at a better price point.

Great pools and beach access. Staff were helpful

It is in the heart of Miami Beach, the pools were nice

We had a nice view of the pool and ocean. Love hotel design and vibe. Staff was very attentive and professional.

The rooms were great and spacious. The location was perfect. We stayed one night before and one night after a cruise and I will definitely do that again!
