This property is one of the older properties on Collins Avenue but it was fine to rest your head. It's all about perspective because if the room I had were somewhere in Europe then we would say it has "old world" charm, if it were in New York City then we would say it has a "loft like chicness" to... more

I do not think I could ever express sufficiently the horrific experience my friend and I had at this establishment. I live about 30 minutes from Miami Beach but having friends in town it's often convenient to stay at a hotel for one night after going out on the town. I booked this hotel through a corporate travel service provided... more

So I try to check in and they did not have my reservation. I had booked my room two months earlier via Expedia. The front desk asked me several times if my room was under someone else's name since it's possible someone else's credit card was used to book the room. I say no several times and explain I was... more

I was a bit worried going to this hotel as i had read from the previews reviews it sounded like it was the worst place ever. But on the contrary this hotel is great. The location is perfect for getting to anywhere on foot, and the beach is across the street. When we checked in the staff member that greeted... more

I did my research and found Aqua to be rated from 3 to 5 stars online at different websites. I looked at the Aqua website and it seemed nice. I booked my room ($175 for one night plus $35 parking and $22 in taxes). The room has a bare concrete floor that is chipped and cracked. The concrete is unsealed... more

The good things about Aqua – the location is perfect for the beach clubs and restaurants. The complimentary continental breakfast is a touch from 7-10 along with free wi-fi in the lobby and the helpful staff. However the thing that bugged me about the place though was the lack of carpet in the rooms. Why they think having no carpet... more

LOWLIGHTS: * The room looked like it was furnished with tossed out, old dorm room furniture and the bedroom had cement flooring (no carpet). The bed was horrible, lumpy, bumpy and probably THE most uncomfortable we've ever slept on (bold statement considering we've traveled a lot, even to 3rd world countries). We wish we took some photos of the room... more

The Aqua Hotel is a joke. Lounge, Where? This will be among the worst hotels you will ever stay in for your life. Concrete floors, K-Mart quality plastic furniture. Uncomfortable bed. Booked it through Hotwire at 3 stars, yeah right. Location is perfect and only a block from the beach. Its fine if you just want to spend the night... more

I stayed at this hotel earlier this month. The set up of the hotel really makes it more like a motel (rooms are all off a central courtyard). The location is fabulous! You are one block from the beach, about 2 blocks from the Lincoln Road shops/rest's, and about 1 block or so from Ocean Drive, and about 2 blocks... more

We stayed at the Aqua Hotel on short notice. Actually we called the hotel just hours before we wanted to arrive. The hotel staff accomodated us with a great rate of $99.00 on New Year's Day. When we arrived, we were greeted and given an upgraded room on the second floor. The rooms are minimalistic. Cement (YES, cement!) floors and... more
