Abrham was incredible. He helped me with a great view of the ocean with comfy towels. He was very nice and him and Caleb checked on me multiple times to make sure I was enjoying myself. Jesus was a great server too very cool & helpful. These gentlemen were the best!!

What was most disappointing was the beach and the new food contract with Jose Andres food company, so no longer RC food or service. Drinks are made with average mixes. Two attendants for entire beach and discarded towels everywhere. Beach is filthy with trash… Read more

Two attendants for entire beach and discarded towels everywhere. Beach is filthy with trash (which doesn’t seem to get picked up nightly) and seaweed washed up on shore. Read less

Not always easy to disconnect and unwind, but Daril made our days on the beach in Miami worry-free. Even beyond, he and Bruce and the rest of the group anticipated our needs and went out of their way to make us comfortable. We are so appreciative of the effort and care and hope to return soon.
