Great location and nice building
The communication was top notch for our stay. The Arts Festival happened to be in town and we were given precise details on road closures and how to reach the property. The building is lovely with nice amenity spaces. Our room was clean, well-equipped, and nicely furnished with extra touches like bathrobes. Despite all the activities in the area that weekend, our stay and floor were quiet. You can walk out the front door and you’re in the middle of everything in Coconut Grove so the location is perfect. I cannot stress enough how excellent the communication is with the property management team. Our trip was seamless because of this extraordinary communication.

Thank you very much for your kind review, Sharon! We are very happy you enjoyed the fantastic location. Regarding check-in, although we try our best to accommodate requests, our housekeeping needs the time to make sure apartments are properly sanitized and ready for your arrival. Nevertheless, we appreciate your comments. It was a pleasure hosting you!

We loved staying here. Check in process was easy, and location was perfect. Used the gym and swimming pool and there’s tons of restaurants/stores walking distance. The area is very nice and felt very safe. Miami Beach and Everglades were close as well, driving there. Host checked in to see if we needed anything and was very welcoming. Can’t wait to go back!

Nice place in grove
This place was very nice, with a view of the grove, and great location next to everything. Only issue we had was when we got there it wasn’t too clean so we sent pictures and the hosts took care of it and sent housekeeping to do a better job, and they definitely did. Communication was pretty good, only a kitchenette (no full fridge or anything) but depending on your stay that’s no big deal! Kinda feels like a hotel room. Not super modern facilities but that’s kind of how the whole Arya is, I still like staying there for the amazing location and I love having a balcony. Overall a good stay!

Hurricane Ian Evacuation
We drove from Tampa to Miami to get out of the path of Ian. We had some wet and windy but only lost WiFi briefly and never lost electricity. Apartment was small but met our needs. View from the balcony was spectacular. Very close proximity to fun center of Coconut Grove. Exceeded expectations.

The location is perfect. The room is lovely with a terrific. Bed. The view is stunning at night. Daytime is ok but lots of rooftops and construction nearby. It’s ina hotel which has No restaurant, no place to buy a snack. Ther is a cooler with some energy drinks and water for purchase near the front desk. The room had a refrigerator and the host had a bottle of wine waiting. Along with bottled water. Very nice. Check In was easy and the hotel is very pretty. Great restaurants just out the door. It comes with a parking space but the beauty of this location is you can walk everywhere. The village is filled with shops and food. The bay is just a short walk down the road. All in all, it’s a perfect et get a way.

Coconut Grove Apt.
This property is nice, especially for the price. The little kitchenette & bathroom could be updated, but it worked great for us. We enjoyed morning runs on the pier & working out in the fitness room. It is in walking distance of many local restaurants & breakfast places. During the week, traffic is a little crazy, but calmer on the weekend. It’s about 25 minutes to miami beach & definitely worth the drive. The pool was nice, but the restaurant was closed during our stay; not that it mattered to us. We had to drive to downtown everyday for a 4-day event, so it was nice to come back to this quaint little area. The management was very responsive. We would recommend updating the pillows & the coffee machine. Overall, a good experience.

Quite nice, but I wouldn't call it luxury.
We enjoyed our stay, but I have a few caveats: –There was quite a lot of noise from other guests at the hotel, perhaps because it was over Thanksgiving holiday and people were partying. - I have always thought a plastic mattress cover is unacceptable in a luxury accommodation. -It seemed abusive to me, for a two-week stay, not to provide at least one change of sheets and towels without extra charge. - Finally, we thought the room could do with some general updating.

Thank you for your kind review and feedback! We are happy you enjoyed your stay! In regards to the change of sheets/towels, please note these are private apartments and we encourage you to treat them as such. We do not offer hotel services and additional cleaning does have a cost. We appreciate your feedback on the general updating and will definitely look into this to continue to offer the best quality service to our guests. Thank you Leslie!

The city view from the 17th floor was spectacular. Room was clean. Check in was a breeze and contact less. The downside was the pool closed at sunset and restaurant/bar onsite was temporarily closed which didn't allow guests to enjoy the pool and hot tub.

Amazing views, clean but with critical comfort-related maintenance lacking
Accommodating property management staff. Prompt response however, the studio had a dinosaur-aged (30 years old…) manual thermostat which was broken. Upon arrival the temperature was set on 60 , so the first night was like sleeping outside in the cold. The property managers got it replaced next day but with inconvenience to me and wasting my precious time when I had to attend to business not coordinating their maintenance, access, etc. which should have happened before I showed up. However, the new control did not work any better. It controlled the temperature but not the high humidity. Probably the entire AC unit has to be repaired. All towels and linens were damp because of it and so were all my clothes. The interruption and being woken up by other staff like knocking on door to change the AC filter at 8:30 am on a Saturday was simply unacceptable. Overall nice, clean studio, amazing location and views. But, my stay and peace was interrupted by constant texting to “check” on things etc. .when I was in town for business meetings not to babysit and coordinate property upkeep which should have happened before I got there. Also, you could put a couple of extra soaps for an extended stay like a few days… one for the shower and one for the sink. The kitchenette is very dated and has no space to even place a small plate. No practical design. One of the chairs at the table had a broken/wobbly leg which I discovered when I sat on it and nearly fell off with the entire chair. I trust you’re going to properly fix the AC so it controls the high humidity before your next gusts show up. It was not a comfortable nor relaxing stay at all because of all the interruptions from property management, albeit they were professional and courteous with best intentions.

Thank you, Alina, for taking the time to provide your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the issues with the AC and humidity during your stay. We are glad that we were able to address and resolve these concerns promptly. Regarding the AC filters, we regret that it coincided with your stay as it was a building requirement and they had scheduled it for that specific day. We understand the inconvenience it may have caused and will share your feedback with the building management to ensure better coordination in the future. We appreciate your understanding and patience. In an effort to continually improve, we have updated some of the furniture in the apartment to enhance the overall look and feel. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we take it seriously as we strive to provide the best experience for our guests. Thank you for your understanding, and we sincerely hope that you will consider giving us another opportunity in the future. We would be delighted to welcome you back and provide you with an even better stay.
