The Palms Hotel & Spa

Nice hotel. Very clean. Great service from the front desk checking in , room service to the valet parking. Everyone is friendly and helpfull .The pool and the beach are beautiful .Nice and quiet. Great value. Great location.

We performed and celebrated our wedding at this location in July. Everything and everyone was amazing. Everything was perfect on our day. We were privy to watching the staff set up our chairs on the beach on the morning of, completely unbeknownst to them, and the care and precision they took to set them up perfectly was actually a shock to us! They were meticulously (with emphasis) placed. The food was absolutely amazing. We heard nothing but A+ reviews from guests. Yasmin was our main coordinator and could not have been more perfect in helping coordinate everything including set up. She was great at keeping us on track with dances/cake cutting etc and keeping things running smoothly. The entire staff was so friendly we have pictures of them and our guests throughout our album! I can not say enough about how everything went perfectly on our day. We are so appreciative to the whole team for everything. Our guests have actually said it was the best wedding they've been to. We stayed in an ocean front room on the night of our wedding. The view was WOW. The room was perfect. We wish we had stayed there all week. As a bride there is nothing more amazing than having nothing to worry about on your wedding day. Way overdue review. This is the least I can do. <3 Thanks again to the Palms!

People say Miami is the least friendly city in the US. Our server at Essencia Restaurant proves that there are many exceptions to this. Michael was incredibly kind to me, my wife and four year-old daughter, who came to the Sands for respite after our power had been out for several days. Michael's impeccable service and genuine character really made a difference in our stay, as he was our server two continuos nights. Genuine, friendly staff make such a big difference, and the Sands is very fortunate to have employees like Michael. - Jim, Sol and Luna

Fantastic place but very expensive but then again it is south beach miami , rooms are fantastic and we had a great view over the beach . The pool area is great with access directly onto the beach which is very nice , only downside was the pushy bell hops who are determined to get your luggage on a trolley so you have to tip them . Three times in ten minutes I had to tell them NO .

Everything about the hotel is wonderful. My husband and I booked this hotel directly on the hotels website to receive a better price and perks! Completely worth it! Not only was the price cheaper than the travel app I use to find "hotels".com; but they also waived the resort fee and upgraded our room and we were able to check in early!!! Bonus! Got 2 complementary adult beverages at the hotel bar for posting our reservation on Social media. Check out with the hotel first before booking elsewhere, yeah it might not add up to your "free" night on the other sites but it was worth it in price and upgrades! Everyone that worked there that we met were professional and very nice! The hotel grounds were beautiful, steps away from the beach! Never swam in the pool but we did a lounge beside it and order tableside service which was very slow but when you're on a laid-back relaxing vacation I don't really mind when things are a little slow. We drank at the bar! Great farm to table drinks! So delicious! Never got to eat at the restaurant or go to their spa (it was spa month and they were booked full) so no review. The room was clean and well maintained! I live the turn down service! It's a sweet jester to have the sheets pulled back and little chocolates left on the pillow after a long day of sightseeing and beaching. We ubered everywhere we wanted to go or walked. Uber's are everywhere and very cheap. We took an Uber from the hotel to downtown for less than $15; keep in mind the cab fare from the airport to the hotel was $35! Needless to say we took Uber back to the airport when we left! Less than $15!
