Stayed at South Seas during the prime week between Christmas and New Years. Booked last minute and still received a decent rate. Rooms/bathroom were very clean. Beds comfortable. Front desk staff friendly and helpful. Free breakfast was very good and served in clean area. Exceptional food and bar service served poolside. Usually stay elsewhere, but for 1/3 the price, we...

Almost missed the entrance because the driveway is so small. No parking onsite, $30 per day to valet park. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel definitely caters to a latin and european clientele. The rooms were very small, reminded me of a college dorm. The beds were comfy enough. The rugs in the common areas need to be... More

Dirty unsanitary rooms. We were given dirty towels not once but twice. Sheets had random stray hairs as did our dirty towels. Mysterious, big, dark stain on the carpet. Paper thin walls. We were moved from one dirty ugly room to another of the same quality. The front desk personal was RUDE. I wouldn't stay here again if they paid... More

I have not stayed twice at The South Seas Hotel in South Beach and it is a great little hotel, with excellent service, breakfast is included, right at the beach, near Lincoln Rd and Ocean Drive and the Art Deco district. You can't ask for anything better. They are very reasonably priced, the rooms are spacious, breakfast is great, the... More

Where to start? This hotel is a real mix of some exceptionally good things and some really unacceptable things. The Good: Great location - souveneire shops across the street, short walk to the restaurants of Espanola Way and the shops and restaurants of Lincoln Rd Mall, short walk to the art deco district and Lumis Park. Nice pool area with... More

The same day we checked out we got calls shortly after that week for about 1000 dollars in fraudulent charges. Also our sheets weren't changed the whole time we were there, and staff is extremely unfriendly. We think that the one friendly person there was the one who stole our financial info.. you get what you pay for... More

Dear guest, I am saddened to hear that that you have experienced something as horrible as credit card fraud and realize how incredibly frustrating that must be returning home from a vacation. I am extremely concerned by your review and the allegations that you have made regarding my staff at the South Seas. As general manager of the South Seas... More

This is one of a few "middle scale" hotels in the middle of a very fashionable end of South Beach. I hope it stays that way! The rooms are comfortable, the bathrooms clean, the coffee in the Continental breakfast is very good, and you can't beat the location! The heated saltwater pool is wonderful, and so are the hammocks.

I booked this hotel on the fly when last minute plans called for me to crash in South Beach before moving into my apartment there. I had just spent a couple nights at the gorgeous Setai, so maybe I was biased but it was like I hit a wall when the taxi pulled up to this tiny place. I got... More

Dear Guest, Happy New Year, and thank you for your review. As with the other beachfront hotels along Collins Avenue, not all of our rooms can offer the spectacular views that our Oceanfront rooms provide. We encourage you to stay with us again to experience one of our beautiful garden view or oceanfront rooms. We pride ourselves on the high... More

I ended up just staying here because of the slightly lower price I was able to get for a hotel right on South Beach. It's in a great location, right near Lincoln Road on Collins. It's a pretty lowkey hotel; feels almost like a motel. The lobby is nice, nothing special. Checkin and everything was fine. The hallways however were... More

One wonders what to make of an Art Deco hotel with a beach side location smack in the middle of the most celebrated strip of SoBe boutique hotels which somehow appears to have been forgotten by developers. On the positive side the price per room for this location is reasonable and one can convince yourself that you are experiencing a... More
