  • Beautiful grounds, easy access.
  • Having to pay for self Parking and the long walk from parking to my room.

“Great place to stay whether for business or pleasure. I was busy with my daughter preparing for her dorm life at UM, so I didn't get to enjoy it the way I wanted,but the facilities and services were great, people were very nice.”

  • I did not like anything about this hotel.
  • The parking is over a seven minute walk one way and your charged for it.

“This has to be the worst travel experience I have had. First the directions were completely incorrect by miles. The three + hour trip took six hours because they were completely wrong. I was charged for parking over seven minutes away everyday we had to walk almost an hour because we had to leave the hotel a couple times. The hotel was a spa and the spa was closed for maintenance until October. They preformed a 90 minute maintenance in our room when we were trying to relax. At the pool they had landscape workers using gas powered blowers for hours and the pool was full of derbies from the blowers. Internet was a 10 dollar an hour fee at Starbucks that closed at 4PM and the hotel business center charged 10 for the first 15 minutes. We wore ourselves out walking between the car, room and lobby in the rain every day. We were told that there was no shuttle to the airport and when we left we questioned the vehicle that appeared to be an airport shuttle and it was confirmed they only use the shuttle at their own discretion. The room key shut off at 10:30 am and I was stranded at the garage gate unable to get out unless I walked back and forth in the rain to have them re program my room key. Unable to access the room as well at 10:30am.”

  • Location, cleanliness, staff. All are great!
  • The distance between self park and room.

“Everyone was great!! On my first night my keys were deactivated by the time I had returned to my room but after calling the front I quickly had security deliver me new key cards. The worst was the self park (12/day) distance between parking lot and room was too much. Especially when the temps are in the 90's and carrying luggage. Valet is a little steep at 24/day. The grounds are beautiful and serene, felt safe at this location and very central to highways and restaurants.”

  • Nice room, great atmosphere.
  • The staff was less than accommodating.

“The room was comfortable and clean, and the atmosphere of the resort was pleasant and tropical. My only complaint regards the front desk. My party requested an extra bed as soon as we walked into our room and it finally showed up after 3 phone calls and one hour, 45 minutes. Unacceptable.”

  • Staff was superior, beautiful grounds.
  • Distance from airport.

“Beautiful grounds and amenities, sports bar was nice. Couldn't spend enough time to truly enjoy everything it had to offer. Pools were open until 10PM, but it was a little cold in January for a dip when we arrived just after sunset. Staff was great with everything; they even had a cab ready for us at 6AM. A little far from the airport.”

  • Beautiful room, excellent service, great food!
  • No airport shuttle.

“We enjoyed our one-night stay very much! We had a very spacious, newly renovated room and would definitely return if we are in the area again. Will absolutely recommend to anyone staying in Miami.”

  • The front desk staff was very friendly and accommodating.

“We were only at the resort for one night, but it was beautiful. Although you expect staff to be friendly, was awesome - very welcoming. The buffet breakfast was a great value for the huge amount of choices and the great quality.”

  • Excellent staff, pool area like tropical oaisis, top notch.
  • Nothing!

“I was really impressed with all the staff that all went out of their way to make you feel welcomed. Pool area made you forget you are just a few minutes away from the airport. Room was cozy. Would stay there again in a heartbeat. Very well managed property and it's rare for me not to find something wrong.”

  • Good food, prompt service.
  • Room to hot, parking too far away, drinks expensive.

“This hotel is in a good location, but is really a resort and not very good for the occasional business traveler. The rooms are in lodges, which are hard to find if arriving late. Parking is either $22 a night for valet or far away. The food is good but expensive. Internet access is $13 a day.”

  • This a historic, landmark hotel. The grounds are impeccable.
  • No airport shuttle service. No free Wi-Fi.

“This is an elegant, old resort hotel which would be impossible to recreate in today's dollars. As a golfer, I appreciate the legacy and significance of the world famous golf course. The landscaping, fountains and gardens are a feast for the eyes of a desert dweller such as myself. The service staff is top notch. My experience was such a pleasant one that I arranged to revisit the hotel on my return trip.”

  • The beauty of the resort and all the amenities for any traveler.
  • It's a bit out of town from Miami and the overhead planes from the airport.

“From the time we arrived until we left we were taken care of by not only the hotel staff but also any person on the site. The rooms were beautiful and well stocked. The grounds were very well kept and the hotel offered everything a traveler might need right there on the site. Golf is very central in the offerings but other amenities abound. A full Spa which has it's own entrance is available for many different needs.”

“The hotel was very attractive there were some unnecesarry layers that seemed designed to stimulate tipping. it is billed as an airport hotel but there are no airport shuttles. restaurants were hard to access.”

  • Newer hotel with quality furnishings and fittings.
  • Too many conference goers; "airport" hotel that is 1/2 hour from airport by cab - no facilities to check in for flights unless you bring laptop.

“Large facility with many conferences/conventions. The individual traveler is ignored. "Airport" hotel that is 1/2 hour from airport with no transportation other than taxi. Cannot check in for flights unless you bring your own laptop - front desk/concierge won't assist. For groups only.”

  • One of the best hotels I have ever been to.
  • Restaurants/bars closed a bit early.

“The hotel was better than all my expectations! The room was big, clean and very nice. Had a balcony with a nice view. Very nice bathroom and the bed were really good. The staff was very helpful and very nice. The hotel has a huge area with an awesome golf resort and spa center. A lot to do at the hotel. This is one of the best hotels I have ever been to, and I would absolutely come back. I can recommend this hotel to everybody. A beautiful hotel with a lot of activities. This is the first time I actually had to use a map to get around at the hotel. I had a really good time staying there.”
