Pros:

Great hotel. Clearly freshly refurbished and excellent facilities. Staff were extremely attentive - everyone we bumped into in the lift, for example, even junior team members, asked how we were and whether there was anything that they could do to improve our stay. Shows a great culture! Only downsides are a bar that shuts very early (10pm) and a LOT of mosquitoes in the outdoor pool area - they give bug spray it we had to retreat late afternoon or after rain.

Pros:

Very nice hotel recently refurbished to a very high standard. All areas of the hotel are very stylishly decorated and the room was very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent and the bar serves delicious cocktails from a great drinks menu. Staff were super friendly - Marta our breakfast server was especially attentive and helpful. Overall a really excellent hotel in a great South Beach location.

Pros:

Lovely beach view. Beautiful small terrace. Nice color story in the rooms. Love the pool and the staff. Please make slippers or flip flops to wear. The floors are marble. Soft slippers or flip flops would be cozy and great for the branding.

Hotel bastante confortável
Pros:

O hotel é incrível , foi reformado recente e a estrutura está impecável , único ponto negativo é a quantidade de taxas que se cobra em Miami Beach , taxa de resort , taxa de ocupação , taxa da Flórida + valet parking ou seja seu dinheiro fica todo em taxas.

Weekend Getaway at the Shelborne
Pros:

Rich with history on South Beach is the Shelborne Hotel by Proper. While we've frequented Miami over and over, this was our first stay at the Shelborne and let's just say it's the ONLY hotel we will go to moving forward. From style, to service, to staff, this place has everything you need for the perfect getaway.

The rooms are charming all new features.

The service is world class from room service, to front desk, to the pool / beach staff. All around incredible.

Look out for the following individuals while you're there as they will see you have a great time:

Bellhop / Bags: Adrian
Pool: Issa
Front Desk: Jonathan
Dining / Room Service: Maria
Beach: Andrew

This is just to name a few, but ALL of the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating.

We can't wait to visit Miami soon, only at the Shelborne.

Stayed at the new Shelbourne Hotel in Miami Beach and honestly everything was great. The front desk staff was super friendly and helpful, which set the tone right away. The pool was calm and peaceful—such a nice vibe. Everything felt fresh and clean. Definitely would come back.
