Stayed for Orange bowl sailing regatta
I had the pleasure of renting this property for the Orange bowl regatta. It was me, my daughter, and her sailing partner. The apartment was immaculate, and awesome views! The location is also perfect for walking around, and safe for teens to make their way to Coral Reef Yacht club. I had a car as well and parking was in a secure garage. We would definitely recommend staying in this VRBO and hope to come back next year!
Beautiful scenery, easy walk to Coconut Grove.
This is an amazing condo. The views are breathtaking. Waking up to a view of water and sailboats is a peaceful way to start the morning. In the evening the sunset is breathtaking.
The condo is clean and beautifully kept. The half bath really works for not disturbing people in the room. Parking is very easy and convenient. Neighborhood is very safe and easy to walk to Coconut Grove shops.
We were traveling with family, this time. However, I told my husband he should bring me back for a romantic trip to condo.
Do not hesitate to reserve this location.
Really easy to get in, very easy to get in touch with manager of the apt, excellent view, easy parking and it was spacious enough for our family of 6
Really the only thing that sometimes irritated us was the waiting for the elevator sometimes.....
Overall a great place to stay!
Not sanitized for your safety
Plastic baggies over remote controls makes you think things are "santized," but beware. When we stepped into the bathtub black came off our feet...from the floors! We wiped the floor with a washcloth and they were filthy. At night, we smelled an electrical smell which freaked us out. The property manager responded and wanted to help, but then we figured out what the smell was...THE VINYL SHADES. When they are put down at night they off-gas vinyl, probably from the heat of the day. The smell was so bad we had to leave the shades up and keep the windows open, so we had to suffer through the ambient light of the city and the accompanying sounds. The next morning they came to "clean," but the smell of the fabuloso cleaner was almost as revolting as the vinyl smell, so we still had to keep windows open for aeration. They provide an espresso maker, but the cheapest coffee pods, so it tastes like water. The sofa bed was painful for the children, and we couldn't get the TV to work. The location was close to shopping and good food, so there's that.
Convenient and Gorgeous
Had a wonderful stay. Plenty of room for our crew- four adults and two young children. The views were amazing. Perfect location to many shops and restaurants. A huge bonus for us was the children’s park across the street. Kids had a blast playing while us adults sat at the restaurant that overlooked the area. This was a great spot to relax after our cruise. The location to the airport was also convenient.
ARYA Hotel and booking
The view was beautiful, but the cleanliness was not up to standard. There was an odor when you walked in the front door, the floors were dirty to walk on (from the first evening we arrived) and there was mold in the master bathroom and kitchen vents. The AC was running but the humidity in the rooms was high and it seemed the vents may be clogged. Three of my family members were stuffy and sneezing every time we entered the property and continued to have breathing issues while there, that would clear up while we were gone during the day. There were issues with the elevators the entire stay and only one appeared to be working.
It was also very disappointing that the pool was not open, as that was one of the things we were most looking forward to and had packed and prepared for.
Returning to the U
This is a perfect place for families bringing their kids back to college. We had a two bedroom condo that was perfect for our family. Beautiful views, clean, fantastic location in coconut grove and enough space to spread out. It’s a quick drive to the university.
Moving my son into U of Miami
Beautiful 2 bedroom apartment with incredible views! Super comfortable beds and updated baths. Kitchen has everything that you’ll need. We will stay again !
Fantastic view and beautiful condo
We loved staying in 1518 Sonesta
The condo is beautifully furnished and immaculate. The harbor views are spectacular during day & night. The swimming pool is a treat for our granddaughter with an excellent pool side restaurant. Laura our site manager was gracious and helpful if we had questions about the condo. Truly a five star place to stay. This was our fifth stay at Sonesta, the best place to stay in Coconut Grove. We hope to return many times and stay at Sonesta 1518 condo. Thank you, Laura for making our stay pleasant.
Amazing views !
We really enjoyed our stay.. perfect for a family of four!
¡El apartamento perfecto: hermoso, con vistas impresionantes!
Conocemos bien la zona y nos gusta su tranquilidad y los paseos junto al mar. Escogimos este apartamento por sus fotos pero no estábamos seguros de haber tomado la mejor decisión. En total nos quedamos 10 días y nuestra hija nos acompañó el fin de semana.
A todos nosotros nos fascinó el apartamento. Mi hija quiso conocer a la decoradora, Natalia, y ella tuvo la amabilidad de explicarnos cuál fue su criterio para decorarlo. Lo cierto es que la entrada es sencillamente espectacular y las vistas son…no tengo palabras, diga lo que diga no voy a poder hacerle justicia a esas imágenes que se me han quedado grabadas en la retina. Todo lo demás fue estupendo, incluyendo el tiempo (supongo que eso ayuda), y pasando por el personal del hotel. Un diez.
Great Apartment! Fantastic location! Great view!
We took a weekend family getaway to Miami and stayed in a fantastic apartment. It had recently been renovated and was beautiful and clean and it accommodated our family of 5 very well. The view from the apartment fabulous. The pool was also great for adults as well as kids. The apartment is in a central location which is great for sightseeing! We enjoyed our stay at this apartment and will definitely stay here on future visits.
Great Location
We had a group of 4 friends stay at this property for an extended weekend. This was a great property and location. The room was very nice with great amenities. Nice pool area and good size fitness. The unit was walking distance to tons of restaurants and shops in the Coconut Grove area. Only 20 minutes from the airport.
weekend regatta
Perfect location for myself and crew, age 60+, to relax, sleep and be safe after a long day on the water.
Beautiful corner unit with views that made me want to live there.
We love Coconut Grove - the shops, the restaurants, the vibe. The Sonesta is always our choice as it’s a combination of hotel and condos with a pool and restaurant. And the staff is great. There were 4 of us and the condo was perfect. The laundry room was a great surprise. The host provided coffee, toiletries, water and a bottle of wine! We’ll miss the sunrises out the bedroom windows and sitting on the balconies to start the day.
Clean.......Great Views.......Very comfy !
Four of us rented a 2 BR -- 2 Bath unit in the Sonesta in Coconut Grove for a week. The unit was very spacious......super clean......and had fantastic views. We plan to rent from them again in the future -- and you should too !!
Wonderful place and host!
The apartment was in a great location and within easy walking distance of restaurants, bars and shops.
The pool at the hotel was a great added bonus and the views from both the balcony in the apartment and pool area were spectacular.
The apartment was cleaned to a very high standard and very spacious with everything we needed for our week in Miami.
The host was very responsive and friendly. We would definitely choose to stay here again in the future.
Apartamento con gran terraza y vistas preciosas, ubicado en zona con tiendas y restaurantes para ir andando.
Estuvimos cómodamente alojados dos semanas. Tiene un vestidor grande que no aparece en las fotos.
It was really amazing place, clean, comfortable and beautiful
We had a wonderful stay. MILLION DOLLAR VEIW!!!
Great stay!
Host was the sweetest, quickly to respond and in making sure our stay was impeccable and unforgettable. Unit is exactly as described and the views are breathtaking. We will definitely come back !!
One of my favorite places to stay in Miami, host was amazing and the place was very nice and greatly located
View even more impressive than expected. Very walkable neighborhood.
great stay, beautiful views and perfect location
Fantastic experience in a great location. The property is even more beautiful in person—photos don’t do it justice. I would return anytime and highly recommend it.
great stay
I was a very pleasant stay, we booked 8 days in this beautiful apartment and enjoyed every one of those days. The Host kept good communication throughout the whole process, honestly 10/10 would recommend.
I really enjoyed my stay, will definitely book again in the future !!
The view is spectacular, just like in the pictures. The only thing we found we did not like was the neighborhood noise. Not really the property's fault, but a factor.
The apartment has everything needed for a stay. The location is very convenient and short walk for restaurants and stores. This was overall a great experience and I would recommend this Airbnb to others.

Nice Apt
Awesome View, beautiful property , perfect location in the middle of the gtrove! Only issue is a couple of the elevators were not working so sometimes there were long wait times..overall 5 stars
Convenient location
Pretty property lovely accommodations
Nice and clean apartment
Clean and well planned apartment in a good location. The apartment is a few years old, so somewhat worn but functional. Comfortable beds. Ok kitchen with what is needed. Large bathrooms with older bathtubs. Good pool area with heated pool. In total we were satisfied and recommend the apartment.
Our Stay
We enjoyed our stay and especially appreciated the wonderful views from our condo. The location was perfect for us, being walking distance from restaurants, shopping and the movies.
Great stay
Has everything you need
Great location…great apartment
Easy to book and check in and out
Unit is true to pics and description
Would / will definitely rent again.
Great views in terrific location.
Wonderful views from everywhere in this unit. Great location with plenty to do walking distance. Very clean and comfortable stay.
Nice view. Clean
-- We wish: 1) the living room and kitchen are bigger.
2) you renovate the master bath room (at least: the bathroom vanity cabinet & sink to make it look more modern). 3) The pool was closed too early. Need to open until at least 10pm
-- Nice balcony. Clean rooms. Good communication. It's hard to park inside the yellow spot (too small).
-- We intend to come back again. Thank you.
Hotel Arya- corner suite
Space was as lovely as the photos show.
Property manager greeted us, then checked in via telephone during our visit to make sure the facilities and our trip were working well.
Restaurants locally were higher end. No local grocery store nor mid-range/fast-food restaurants were within walking distance.
Lovely Weekend Stay
We enjoyed a great stay with beautiful views. The surrounding area is very walkable with great restaurants and shopping. Tjhe owner is wonderful to work with and was attentive to make sure our stay was comfortable. We will stau again soon.
Great stay
This place was perfect. Location was great. Home was spotless. I wouldn’t change a thing.
Nice place
Nice place. Great views.
great location and beautiful views
We loved the view and enjoyed our morning coffee from the balcony which overlooked beautiful Biscayne Bay
We especially enjoyed the proximity to restaurants, shops and cinema.
Great property
Enjoyed the view and location.
Top notch views
Had a great visit and stay at this VRBO. The accommodations were wonderful. Start to the day, and end to each day on the balcony. Short walking distance to everything you need. Introduced me to the best part of Miami area (Coconut Grove).
Home away from home
Everything was just perfect - as in my previous stays. I‘ll be back!
Stunning View
The view was amazing and the location could not have been more perfect. It is actually two suits for maximum privacy and convenience.
Everything you need is in walking distance. From shopping to restaurants and bars. Everyone at the hotel and the property manager were all very friendly and helpful.
The restaurant inside the hotel was under construction and there was no room service but there was another restaurant right next door.
We only received one free parking pass but there were public parking options and Valet.
Overall I would highly recommend this fabulous property.
GREAT LOCATION !

Nice location
Overall good. Perfect location to everything. Some flooring needs replaced but overall a nice stay.
Great location, amazing views
The condo was amazing and perfect for our weekend getaway. Aircraft views, close walk to tons of shopping and restaurants. Enjoyed our weekend and will definitely be back
Updated unit with great corner views.
Perfect.
The most incredible view!
We couldn’t get enough of the view from our bedroom, and we even left the blinds up so that we could catch the rising sun rays. The property was clean, parking was easy, truly enjoyable.
Impressive views
We were very satisfied with this property. It was in a great location with plenty of food options in the neighborhood. The views were incredible! We had plenty of space inside and the beds were very comfortable to our liking which is medium soft.
All Around Wonderful
Great unit & great neighborhood! We really enjoyed our stay!
The view and walk around balcony were perfect. The view is amazing and great location.
Great visit
regatta stay
as always, a pleasure to stay at this property. Its clean, safe, convenient to the yacht club, and well maintained!
Great location and comfortable condo
Couldn't ask for a better location. If you want to be in the Grove, this is a perfect place to stay. The condo itself is comfortable, though it needs a little help - ceiling was leaking, wear and tear, etc. The building is nice and is safe.
Nice Condo, hostile mgmnt company
Check in was a nightmare. I was there a little early but was told to wait til 4 to pay balance , that paying online with vrbo was not an option. No one came. I was given a key but they needed balance payment to go through them not vrbo . After 3 hours of waiting I had to leave but the mgr decided to bang on my door furiously at night as I’m rushing to go out, and sent hostile texts as if I was trying to not pay. He threatened me that I would be kicked out even after I told them I would be available 2-5:30 to pay in person or anytime by phone. They refused by phone. Other than this stressful day , and the broken loud AC , it was a pretty unit.
Very nice property
The checkin and communication went smoothly. The condo was very nice and the views were amazing. We had a slight problem that we reported to the property manager that was corrected promptly. Great area with plenty of shops and restaurants a short walk away. I would consider staying again the next time we visit the area.
Loved it !!
Amazing stay! We enjoyed waking up to beautiful views every morning. The condo included everything.
Happy Stay!
Wonderful condo with a great view! Very clean, which made us feel so comfortable! Pool and hot tub were nice. Plenty of towels and items to use In the kitchen. Will definitely book again in the future!!!
Great beautiful location!
Getting to location was a bit confusing since I didn’t realize that it was a hotel but that in me. I was looking for a condo like location but this worked. Also wen contacting customer give them specific instructions on where to park and the process and perhaps a brochure of things to do in Miami and how to navigate the remote controls to the TVs.
Awesome Condo
This condo was awesome.. clean, in walking distance to stores and restaurants, and communication with the property manager was excellent. Looking forward to future stay here.
Beautiful location and views!!
I would stay again.
Beautiful Miami Views
The apartment was very clean and had very beautiful views of the Marina and Ocean. Very safe neighborhood with lots of restaurants to choose from. We loved this place!!
Immaculate property. Great neighorhood.
Our stay was great. The condo was spotless and the host thoughtfully left us a bottle of wine. The location was great for us with plenty of restaurants within walking distance. We would not hesitate to return.
Beautiful Condo!
We had a fantastic stay in this beautiful condo! The views are spectacular and the location is so convenient. We walked to the Groove for dinner and drinks and ran each morning down around the Harbor and in the parks. This is our 3rd time staying at this location and we just LOVE it! The staff who manage this property were wonderful to work with and the garage parking pass was a plus!! Thank you for such a fantastic stay!
Such an awesome place!
Spectacular view! Such cute decor! Best location! We absolutely loved this condo!
Perfect stay!!! Loved it all
Great apartment with awesome view and close to very nice restaurants.
The available parking spot was very convenient because we rented a car.
Did not like it
Too much noise during our stay, even in the middle of the night.
Lovely Sonesta condo
We stayed here for 5 nights during the Miami Open. Couldn't have made a better choice. This was our 5th consecutive year coming to the tournament and the first we didn't stay in a hotel. Was a great decision. The kitchen was well equipped, having room to spread out was nice and the views were absolutely amazing from the bedrooms and living room. Coconut Grove is great. We went for runs in the mornings and the surrounding parks and neighborhoods are gorgeous. There are many good restaurants within an easy walk. I highly recommend this unit for anyone staying in the area.
Great views and very clean
Great views and very clean!
Lovely! Amazing views!
This is a wonderful, clean, modern, well-maintained rental in a great location in Coconut Grove. Check in was smooth, parking was easy and the whole experience was terrific. I would definitely rent this property or any other property from this group. Professional and easy to deal with. Big thumbs up!!
This is a wonderful property with a stunning view of Biscayne BAy
We really enjoyed our long weekend at this condo. It was clean, well appointed, nicely furnished, and came with parking garage access. The views from the wrap around exterior balcony were amazing. The people who manage this property were very attentive and helpful throughout the long weekend. We would love to stay here again.
The property was true to the pictures!
We had a wonderful experience here. We loved the property as well as it's outdoor space to sit, relax and enjoy the beautiful view. The Sonesta hotel is very nice with a great rooftop pool and restaurant. Coconut grove is a really nice area with lots of restaurants and shopping walking distance away. We would definitely rent this property again.
Property was fresh, clean and had everything we needed. The pool, restaurant and fitness club were.
Loved our time there. Could walk to great local restaurants. The view was spectacular.
Perfect
Beautiful, spacious, and clean. Great location!
Exceptional, view and service
Newly renovated, clean and bright 2 BR condo with terrific views. The photos are accurate. In unit washer / dryer are a big plus (pack less). Added powder room also nice to have. Would absolutely rent it again.
Great stay in Miami
Went to Miami for a few days to enjoy the weather. The Condo was very nicely remodeled with comfortable beds roomy bathrooms.
The two balconies afforded great views of the bay, the marina, and the coastline. We especially liked the pool which was very clean and never overcrowded . We used the kitchen for some breakfasts and a lunch. All the appliances were new.
The location was great, with dining, shopping and the marina within easy walking distance.
We ate at different restaurants every night, and they were all good
Great location with outstanding views
I have spent a lot of time in Coconut Grove and this unit is definitely the best. The recently remodeled unit is modern, clean and comfortable. It is located in a central location just steps from the renowned restaurants, boutiques, shops, art galleries and entertainment of CocoWalk.
After a delicious brunch I wandered to the rooftop fitness center. It is well equipped and features private locker rooms and a sauna. I also took advantage of the gorgeous pool and hot tub on the 8th floor, which offers a full menu and drinks delivered right to your lounge chair.
The free garage parking is another added benefit, but Uber is readily available and I used this service versus renting a car, $12 from the Miami airport to the apartment. I then rented a car for a couple of days from the concierge/front desk and it was delivered right to the front door of the hotel.
Natalia and her staff are amazing. I appreciated being personally greeted and escorted up to the unit.
