We have stayed at the Bal Harbour many times for many years. I would NEVER stay there again during the high, summer season. Although The Bal Harbour has an upscale appearance, I found this hotel/motel to attract a very loud, rowdy, inebriated type of clientele; the type of people who order a 1/2 dozen pizzas at 1 AM, then chuck...

Every year--as a group of roughly 100 doctors and associates of the Brit Yosef Yitzchak organization--we visit Bal Harbour. We book out over 100 rooms. We have a great time. It has very spacious rooms, great ocean views, and wonderful pool and patio area. The management is very accomodating and was even more so this year. We were cancelled-out of... More

This place is average I've stayed in nicer hotels and some that have been worse. We had an ocean view room, and the view was spectacular. As other reviewers stated this hotel is very dated and dark. The ceilings on the floors are very low and the elevators are a little bit scary. I wouldn't have minded the fact that... More

we went labor day weekend & had a fabulous time. I love the cleanliness of this hotel. There was plenty of pools where you didnt feel crowded. Also theres a restaurant inside & we ate there for breakfast very good. More

Wifi @ $12/day. Room basics missing --- Old carpet; toilet tissue 1/2 ply; no facial tissue; Towels are virtually 1 ply. Entire hotel runs AC & Heat. If in transitional season you get no heat or A/C control. Hotel is on either / or. Balcony mildewed. Better bring your own pillows. This place is a Rip off for the price! More

This is our 3rd stay at this resort, first in '07 and then in '09. Keep in mind that this resort is nothing more than a motel, so don't get your hopes up for anything above and beyond anything else in Wildwood. The whole resort is a throwback to the early 80s, particularly the Dolphin building. Very retro if I... More

Recently returned from a 5 day stay at the Bal Harbour Hotel. We stayed in an E1 room which has 3 double beds, one in a separate bedroom, and a kitchenette with a small dining area. Our room was immaculate and inoffensively decorated. Everything was clean and well maintained throughout our stay. The staff was friendly and our room was... More

Aside from the location and the pool facilities, I dont have much positive to say about this place. The location cant be beat, just steps to the beach, and the pool area was superb. Parking was never an issue either. But the rooms were very disappointing. The first room we were given, when we walked in the musty smell was... More
