Being above The Palace is the best thing about this place, unless you don't like noise, then this place is not for you. The place in general is nice but needs wither a coffee table or side table out in the living area, there's nowhere to put your drinks. It's prime location in south beach you could uber from the airport or park a rental down on collins/13th street, super easy walk to the place. They might need to think about new cleaners, the dust is crazy high on things like the tv, boogers on the wall in the bathroom, dishes in the dishwasher with an old cleaning pack that fell out when we opened the door to see where the rest on the silverware and plates/bowls were, floors were sticky and had dirt when walking around barefoot first night. The wifi did not work the entire 2.5 days we were there, reached out to the owner and they were very responsive but unfortunately efforts did not make wifi available which sucks, cause I ran out of data. The tv's need serious updating so that you could watch any app you wanted while there, but they do have direct tv and hbo/max also so that's nice. I could go on about other issues but honestly the place is in a perfect spot for the beach, access to restaurants walking distance and bars/clubs in South Beach which is what I was looking for, it just needs a bit of help as it's not been taken care of well in the owners absence unfortunately.

This property had everything we wanted, except it is directly above The Palace drag show club and restaurant and the roof top pool is accessible to anyone(not just Strand guests) Warning: this is.party central, drag shows day and night (2-3am during festivals such as Pride week), pool parties every afternoon as of 3pm. The level of noise is extra high, derious base coming from below. We bought ears plugs at Walgreens to help us sleep. The location is central, the balconies are great, we had our meals out there every day. Faces sunrise, boardwalk, beach view, all the action of ocean drive, great during the day. But again, do not underestimate, as we did, the noise level at the front of the property, it's insane. We'll not be staying there again

Me and my girlfriend (22 and 20) spent a few nights here during the first week of March and had an amazing time. Close to everything and a great view of the ocean as well as lummus park. We were aware of the noise from the bar below but brought a white noise machine and it drowned out everything. Highly recommend one if you plan on going to bed early like us but the music stopped fairly early. Valet was difficult to work with but they got us in and out eventually. Overall a great stay.

When we booked this place we knew it would be loud and we were fine with that. However, we were not aware that our condo was directly above a place called The Palace. This was a Drag Queen show. Whatever.. to each their own. My complaint is that I wasn’t aware that is was sooo Loud till like 1-2:30 am. The loudest place on the strip. The hand held sprayer was broke, the toilet paper was Scott one ply, we found beer bottle caps still there from previous customers.

Property is as described on listing. Pictures don’t do justice to this unit! Highly recommended, we will back for sure!

We knew it would be loud and noisy from the start, which is why we picked this location. The rooms were excellent with nice conveniences. We loved the two balconies and were able to watch the sunrise over the ocean from them. It was fun watching the thousands of people driving and walking by the front of the hotel. The daily shows were amazing and drew the biggest crowds on Ocean Drive every day and every time! We heard some great music well into the late night. The beach chairs and umbrella were great and we used them out on the beach! The location was well situated, as we could go up or down Ocean Drive with lots of options to choose from. Everything we needed was in very close walking distance. Us the nearby parking garage on 13th street, you won't be disappointed. The bed was very comfortable and so were the pillows. The curtains did a great job is blocking out the sunlight and the heat. The roof top pool and bar were very nice with a great view. We made some new friends and took a lot of pictures there! If you want to be in the middle of the action, this is the place for you. If you want a nice quiet place to get away, try somewhere else. I know I will return to this place!!

The shower/tub had very high sides and was slippery on the floor of the tub. It was difficult to get in and out. This is an accident risk. This should be mentioned in the description of the property. Minor maintenance issue: The trash can in kitchen area had dead batteries so you had to manually take the lid off. We had to request paper towels, there were zero on arrival. Otherwise it was comfortable and very convenient location.
