Spacious Penthouse Suite

“My husband and I stayed in the penthouse suite, which was incredibly spacious and well-appointed. The suite featured a king-size bed, two televisions, a cozy couch, and even a mini refrigerator. The highlight was our balcony that had a comfortable hammock and a stairwell leading to a rooftop area with beach chairs, allowing for a perfect relaxing escape.” view full review

Luxurious Shower Experience

“One of the standout features of our room was the bathroom layout. It had a double sink area, which was fantastic for couples. The shower was one of the best I've experienced, with multiple water jets that offered a rejuvenating wash, paired with ample space that made it feel luxurious and indulgent.” view full review

Fun Poolside Zumba Class

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is excellent, making it easy to explore South Beach and enjoy nearby attractions. The room was spacious with a nice rooftop terrace, which would be fantastic for those with more time. However, I was disappointed to find the pool closed without prior notice, and the cleanliness of some areas left much to be desired.

My stay at Z Ocean was a mix of great convenience and some glaring issues. The location is perfect for getting to the beach and nearby restaurants, making it easy to enjoy South Beach. While the rooms are spacious and have a nice layout, they definitely need updating, especially since there was a strong sewer smell in the hallways. The service was decent, but there were moments of frustration with communication around issues like room cleanliness and amenities. Overall, it's worth considering but be prepared for some drawbacks.

I had an amazing time during my stay at this hotel. The spacious room with a private Jacuzzi was a definite highlight. I also loved how close we were to the beach and nightlife—everything was just a short walk away. While the service was generally nice, it faltered during peak hours with some staff being a bit overwhelmed. Overall, the experience was fantastic, but there's room for improvement in service efficiency during busy times.

Unfortunately, my stay at this hotel was quite disappointing. The refurbishment efforts seemed to compromise comfort, with messy corridors and maintenance issues that detracted from what used to be an enjoyable experience. However, the yoga sessions were a highlight, making me feel relaxed and pampered. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this hotel due to its current state and service inconsistencies.

I had a nice stay at the hotel with some highlights being the attentive staff and the spacious penthouse suite.
