Dream South Beach, by Hyatt

Disappointed in Naked Taco. Quoted one price but final invoice reflected double price and no resolution when brought to server’s attention.

Fun hanging at the pool with Derik!

The hotel is very close to the beach and Lummus Park. The rooms can be tight and walls are thin. So if you are able to try for a larger room/suite you should book that, as they are quieter. Also we had a speaker and played sleep music at night which helped. That said it is South Beach, Miami not a secluded forest! The building itself is older, like many other hotels on the strip. That said the rooms are nice overall and the property is well maintained. The breakfast at Naked Taco is nice and there is good variety. We also had dinner there and liked it. The hotel is 2 buildings. The Tudor building is accessed by walking through the restaurant. Its not a huge problem but if that is something that would be an issue for you, book a room in the main hotel building. They have a coffee station in the mornings and water stations the rest of the day which was really handy. Rooms have a fridge in. Bathrooms are updated but they are a more modern concept with partial or glass doors. Beds were comfy. I've stayed here the last 2 years for an annual event on the beach and in terms of location, value for South Beach and comfort, I am happy with it and would stay again.

Very nice hotel, I went there with my wife and friends, the spot was just fine for the event I went; the pool, beverage and drinks were fine; staff was pretty kind and very helpful with information about the city and spots.

Dancing Salsa with Derik was the best. Walking into the lobby with a pina colada and a dance master teaching you was so much fun.

Dancing with Derek was so much fun. It was the highlight of our day. He was joyful and just sucks source of light. Thank you Derek!

They give you ear plugs upon check in. Need I say more. Loud. TV did not work. Hot water was hit or miss. Lights are dim throughout - probably intentionally. Do not recommend.

We only stayed at this Hyatt for one night, but what a fantastic night it was! The entire staff is amazing. From the moment we checked in, to the moment we left, we were treated wonderfully. Melody at the front desk was so sweet and accommodating, and we were lucky to be able to check in early. She gave us some great food recs, and none of them disappointed. The gentlemen working in the lobby (Pablo and Juan Carlos I believe) were also helpful, you won’t stand there waiting for the front desk for long before one of them offers to help in the meantime. The hotel is a short walk to the beach, the front desk will give you beach necessities if you need them (chair, clip on umbrella), and the restaurants surrounding the hotel are great. The hotel offers all kinds of fun extras, like yoga and samba lessons, free drinks during a certain hour, welcome champagne, etc. We met the GM during our stay, and Rebecca was so kind and welcoming. She and Brie (front desk) were out front chatting with guests and we had a lovely conversation with them, and received some more recommendations for places to go while in Miami. The upper deck with the pool is nice, and there is a free sunscreen station up there, they have Banana Boat sunscreen. Excellent experience, we will definitely be back to Dream.

My overall experience was excellent. My only dissatisfaction was having to take a chair, provided by the hotel, to the beach and there was no umbrella provided on the beach.
