I love this hotel. I am in Miami several times a month, and I always stay here. The hotel is beautiful, and the service is top notch (Samir is the man!). It is truly a 5 star hotel. Easily the best hotel in Miami. The pool is very nice and low key, so you don't get the same crowd as... More

I've stayed here twice and can't say enough about how wonderful the staff are and how serene it feels when you're there. Miami Beach has a great energy and vibe, but sometimes you want to escape and have downtime — simply relax. The Setai is intimate and offers guests privacy, luxury and impeccable service. From the doormen to your room... More

This place has a great location but mediocre customer service and dark drab rooms/bathrooms. The wood blinds are also getting so beat up they look awful. If you order room service they will quote you 30-40 mins and then take 65. It happened to us every time we ordered. We find this very annoying. One morning we ordered before bed... More

The Hotel is fantastic in every aspect of it. The installations are great and very well cared; the service is wonderful, all the personnel is very kind, gentle and efficient; the swimming pool is something outstanding; and the food and drinks are delicious! A real 5 star hotel!!

Stayed at the Setai in May 2013. I am very surprised that this hotel gets so many good reviews - either our expectations are way out (our benchmark is usually Four Season) or other people are usually staying in youth hostels. Pros: - location - breakfast buffet - Asian restaurant - Rather quite Cons: - Price vs value: looking at... More

We live in Miami but wanted a 'Staycation' and although it was hectic outside with closed streets and traffic, inside the the Setai was blissfully peaceful and the 3 swimming pools chilled and relaxing. The pool and beach service was excellent. The Pool restaurant was breezy and excellent.

Third stay and still amazing. Amazing hotel, anticipatory service, awesome beach area, great spa. We love staying here. Entirely expensive but you get what you pay for. Amazing. We wish there were affiliated Setais in other locations.

Just returned from my fourth stay here in the last 18 months. This place doesn't miss a beat and always exceeds my expectations! I really can't recommend it enough. I've already praised the property in detail in my previous review, and all of that's still true. What I want to call attention to in this review is the service. After... More
