This little hotel in South Beach is my absolute favorite place in the whole world for so many reasons. From the moment you arrive the atmosphere is very relaxed with beautiful beachy vibes for all the senses, visually and the scent of the ocean. The staff is so friendly they are so appreciative of you bring there and make you feel happy. The rooms are spacious and modern but the best part is the swaying large palms outside your sliding door where you can sit down on your private balcony and just take in the feel of being there at this marvelous place. I would like to say how much it means to me that they take such good care of the property and have such warm welcoming people working to greet their guests. The Local House is my happy place where I wish I could stay more often but I definitely highly recommend it.

Overall the property was great, location 10/10. However…. We did not have hot water in our shower: for 3 days we had to take freezing cold showers and that was after raising it to the hotel. It’s sad because it really took away from the experience and I would probably not stay here again or recommend it. 3 days of cold showers at a hotel…. The 2 things you want from a hotel is a nice bed and a shower. :(

Beautiful comfortable stay steps from the beach
Great location. Friendly staff. Comfortable bed. Great food and drinks in the restaurant (try the passion fruit margarita!). If I had to nit-pick then I'd say it would have been nice to have an outlet near the bed and the shower controls took a little playing around to figure out the rain head vs regular and hot water.

Short break
I recently had the pleasure of staying at a local house that truly exceeded my expectations. From the moment I arrived, the friendly staff made me feel right at home. Their warm welcome and attentiveness set the tone for a wonderful experience. The room I stayed in was impeccably clean, showcasing a level of care that is often hard to find. It was comfortable and well-appointed, providing a perfect retreat after a long day of exploring the area. What truly stood out, however, was the fantastic homely feel of the hotel. The cozy decor and inviting atmosphere created a sense of belonging, making it easy to relax and unwind. The communal spaces were thoughtfully designed, encouraging guests to mingle and share their experiences. Overall, my stay at this local house was a delightful experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a welcoming and comfortable place to stay. I can't wait to return!
