Image of the Tripadvisor rating $27 for a beach umbrella, no 2pm late checkout for Platinum75/Titanium

They charge $27 for a beach umbrella for the day. This is in addition to already charging a daily $40 resort fee for the amenities. Walked us to two beach chairs... and then removed the umbrella that was there. I have Platinum75/Titanium status with Marriott and they would not let us have a 2pm late checkout, had to get out at noon. Otherwise nice… Read more

The W is great and a wonderful South Beach experience. But biggest credit goes to Olivia at the front desk and how helpful she was. Fantastic accommodating our party and working the room situation. Thank you!!

We travel to South Beach frequently and always like to have a nice view of the ocean. Booking at the W makes things easy because I believe all rooms have an ocean view balcony. Rooms are spacious for the area, clean and the semi-transparent shower wall reminded me of being at the W in my home city. The pool is enormous but seating is limited. Pool staff does a good job of getting seats turned over quickly when someone leaves the pool for the day, making wait times short. Really enjoyed the pool bar and my many tequila shots over the weekend! The hotel has their own area on the beach with wait staff. Beach is very nice, well kept and the servers are excellent. Paying $20 for an umbrella is well worth it. I was not thrilled with breakfast at the restaurant in the hotel lobby...it wasn't bad, just average, expected more for a 5 star hotel. Preferred getting breakfast from other restaurants in the area. Overall a very good hotel, I'd rate it 5 stars, but there are times when the nightly rates seems incredibly high compared to other hotels in the area. It's probably my favorite hotel on the beach if I don't factor in how much it costs. Read less
