Nice place but underwhelmed
This is a nice place. The resort and pools are great! The penthouse however had a few flaws. First, the grout in the bathrooms needs a good cleaning. Its dirty and stained. Second, the beds and pillows are very poor quality. I expected nice mattresses and great pillows, but this was not the case. Super thin and flat. We all woke up with neck and back pain. Third, the wash cloths and towels were also stained. However, that was an easy fix with a message sent to the host. On a good note, if those things will be corrected and replaced, this place will live up to its Penthouse listing. Everything else about the resort was great!

We were so happy with the location, the condo/space itself, the view, the amenities, the communication, literally everything. We have a 4 year old and a 19 year old and we all had a blast! We were at the pool everyday even when it was raining bc it was heated. Poolside dining and drinks if wanted and we also checked out the beach and a local food truck. It kind of covers all the bases, and the host was on top of any questions we had right away. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again!

Excellent Condo, Beautiful Views, Prime Location, and Safe!!!
Laure and her team provided quick turn around for any questions (within minutes). I really appreciated this!I'm a former South Floridian and returned for a week stay so I am familiar with the area.This condo is located conveniently close to anywhere you need to get to with an Uber- Hollywood Beach Boardwalk, Aventura Mall, Walmart, Publix, great restaurants, the airport, and a pizza place right across the street called Fuoco E Farina. You don't need to eat only at Terraza's as there are a million other options.The kitchen had adequate equipment and utensils.The bathroom rain shower had strong water pressure and hot water.I loved that there was a washing machine and dryer in the unit. We purchased a small bottle of detergent, so we had fresh towels and clothes for the week.This unit's balcony provides a panoramic view of the coastline, the ocean, the intracoastal waterways with the boats, and the city ALL at the same time. Day or night, rain or shine, the views are exquisite!! It was relaxing to sit out there in the balcony and enjoy all of it and still hear the ocean from the 40th floor.The unit was clean and we felt safe there. I had no issues with the condo rules as they were in place for resident safety.We had no issues with the elevator. It's on the 40th floor so sometimes there was a wait and other times it was quick.Super easy access to the pool and the beach. The pool was absolutely fantastic!!My family and I loved it here and hope to return next year!

Peaceful penthouse with incredible view
Our family of four stayed for a week and had a blast. This property is clean, safe, quiet, and has a beautiful pool and beach area. Great gym on site as well. We had groceries delivered and we mostly ate in, as this area has mainly high end restaurants and that cost can add up quickly. The on site restaurants are fairly expensive as is the pool bar. Staff was attentive and kept the property in pristine condition. This is a great penthouse and a beautiful resort.

The host or representative was very responsive and all of our questions were readily answered! We loved the large furnished deck and ocean views. The unit was very clean and comfortable. The resort does have very slow Wi-Fi, so don’t plan on streaming anything or using your devices without patience. Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much and would consider this property again!

High end resort style unit. Great amenities.
Some good and not so good stuff. LYFE resorts who owns and operates the property added on a day to our stay. Despite my showing the receptionist at the check in desk the VRBO agreement, she said the only way to remove the extra day was to get an email from the property mgr. ugh. Fortunately for us, VRBO responded almost immediately and sent the email needed in five minutes. That was great. The place was in good shape in terms of furniture and beds. Very comfy. However, the cleanliness was a little lacking. Some gross marks on some doors that needed wiped down and the floor was clearly vacuumed but needed either a swifter or mop down. Now, I know these units are flipped over fast, only allowing a few hours for the next tenant. But an extra 10-15 minutes to wipe down the floor and the doors would have been nice. The real issue we had was that there were zero kitchen towels. We wound up using the makeup washcloths in the bathroom.sand

Awesome Location for family time
Had a great time here, no issues everything was as expected and described. The beach is super close, you have all that you need. Walmart is walking distance for food.We managed to stay without a car and walk or Uber to places for dinner and activities. We came for the beach post cruise so it worked out well. The only thing is at times the wait for elevator was a bit much but it's the only bad thing I would highlight. I would return here for sure.

Wonderful Location!
The place was exceptional. The view is incredible from the 40th floor. Hollywood Beach Boardwalk is only 1.3 miles down the beach and is where we ate at the many restaurants. The 9th floor restaurant and pool were a delight, also with great views. My only complaint is that the balcony, where we spend a great deal of time, never got direct sun. I really wanted the sun but you have to go down to the beach for direct sun. Not a big deal. Thank you for offering your amazing place.

The property was very nice. However there really isn't much to do, especially for kids. You do need to bring your own washcloths because those are not provided. The unit only comes with 6 towels and 4 cosmetic rags. The elevator takes a long time if it's a high traffic hour.
