Very happy with our stay at The Palms. This was my first time booking a trip to South Beach and I was overwhelmed by all of the hotel options so even after all of my research I was still a little concerned that I've missed something. Thankfully every single one of our expectations were either met or exceeded with our stay here at the Palms.

The rooms are cozy a little small but that's okay because in beautiful Miami weather you're not in the room that much anyway. The pool area is special in that it is heavily secluded from the beach or public areas by a dense foliage and landscaping. You have a nice secluded private feeling here at the pool. It seems that most other Resort pool areas are broadcast and wide open to the general public walking up and down the boardwalk here you have a very quiet private feeling.

The gym area is small too small don't have great expectations for that. The lobby area is beautiful and the moment you step in you're greeted by some lovely perfumes and aroma in the air the restaurant is just magnificent we enjoyed a lovely breakfast here sitting outside with terrific staff a great selection and quite honestly fair prices.

The poolside wait staff are highly attentive and very friendly we got to know them over a couple days here which also helps with a personal feel as well.

The location on Collins Ave also worked well for us because it's just On The Fringe of the really dense heavy touristy part of Collins Ave which means it's quiet at night and yet still very close to where the action is.

We are the kind of people who like to try something different every time we take a trip however on our next visit to Miami Beach we very well may rebook here at the Palms it certainly service to all of our needs.
