Avalon Hotel

Prefect hotel to stay at, right across from the beach and along the stripe with amazing restaurants. We went with two young children and we all loved our time.

It is a very clean and friendly place, a hotel where we can stay safely as a family.

It a nice boutique hotel. Staff was nice and friendly and even gave kids a gift to greet them. The breakfast was less than desirable and I don’t like a resort fee for am hotel that has zero extra amenities. $177 for a folding chair and beach towels is excessive. Restaurant was a bit expensive for me but I tried the key lime pie which was very excellent. Beautiful and friendly wait staff. You don’t need a car right across from beach.

Great place to stay if you are with family and want to stay near ocean drive. Beach access and facilities are limited. Very friendly staff and clean place. Dining options are expensive and limited.

Great property for the price. Location is the best, across the street to the beach, numerous restaurants and shops. Great stay for a family holiday.

The staff were welcoming—so helpful and kind. Breakfast was good. It's your typical breakfast buffet (eggs, sausage, croissants/pastries, juice, coffee, and yogurt), which is always fresh, hot, and tasty. The breakfast staff was always friendly. The hotel is in a very convenient location. It's at the end of where the nightlife and social spots are, so it's not noisy (compared to some other hotels that are right in the middle of the nightlife, and apparently, you can hear the noise from the hotel room). The hotel had a mixture of families and younger and older crowds. It always felt safe. The room was on the smaller side (two double beds), but was clean and equipped with a mini fridge, AC, hair dryer, and iron. Unfortunately, the bathroom didn't have a fan, so it would get hot and steamy in there pretty fast, which would heat up the entire room (so keep the AC going!). Two small complimentary water bottles were provided each day. Also, the beach is minutes away, and city bikes are available for rent right outside the hotel as well. One BIG perk of this hotel is that it's close to CVS (less than a minute's walk... a few shops away from the hotel), which is 24 hours. Great for late-night snacks, water bottles, and all your drugstore essentials. Steps away from restaurants and nightlife. Walking distance to the clubs and bars. Will stay here again when I visit Miami!!

We went there for our honeymoon and the staff was so friendly!! The hotel was awesome . The ocean was right there with chairs and towels they provide. We will recommend this hotel to our friends and family . We can’t say enough about this place. We were very sad to leave. We will be back!!!!

Dinner was excellent. The bed was firm and very comfortable. The bathroom is old, small and in need of uodating. The rooms have paper thin walls and we awoke to crying children next door a couple mornings. Any noise in the hallway is also heard inside your room. There is no fitness area.

Our room was very closed off from the views that we expected. The beds were not that comfortable, our bathroom toilet was not functioning properly, our television did not have any child friendly channels. I did however enjoy having fresh towels, clean sheets, and a clean room almost every day.

The Avalon is a beautiful property. The staff is very friendly, proactive and respectful. Julio at the front desk went above and beyond. So did Patrick at the bar. The breakfast is very generous and delicious. Can't beat the location. However, there was no microwave in the room to heat up kid's food. The room air quality was not good. There was a very strong musty smell, we all started sneezing every time we went back into the room and as soon as the air kicked in. We had friends in 2 other rooms with the same smelly issue. This often happens in old properties. I had to purchase an air freshener which covered the smell but not the sneezing. It's time to clean the air ducts and replace carpets.
