Year Purchased: 2001

About the owner: We are both retired public administrators. I was Assistant Director of the Miami-Dade Public Library System. My wife was Assistant Superintendent of the Miami-Dade Public School System.

Why this property? We purchased this property because of its magnificent oceanfront views in a quiet, safe area and easy access to the beach.

Guestbook comments from the host:

From the initial communication, William was incredibly prompt and proper in all of his responses. He gave us all of the information we needed and was very accommodating in making sure everything was in place from the beginning.
He was there when we arrived to show us everything in the apartment and the building and had plenty of info about places nearby.
The apartment was lovely, decorated as a home rather than as a holiday rental. The view from the balcony was absolutely stunning. Everything was also provided in terms of kitchen and bathroom items.
Would definitely recommend this apartment, especially for families. We would definitely consider staying there again if we visit Miami in the future,


May 2017

Bill is a very easy owner to get along with. The apartment is on the 6th floor and overlooks the beach with a great view
The unit is ideal for a family with two kids as the second bedroom Has a double/single bunk bed in it
Two full bathrooms, the one is en suite to the very spacious master bedroom
The living/dining/kitchen is open plan with lots of room. Kitchen well equipped. Furnishings are in good condition
Unit has coolers and beach chairs and stuff for the kids to use on the beach. Lots of loungers on the beach for apartment residents.
The complex has a large heated outdoor pool with lots of loungers. Well equipped gym as well. Valet parking worked very well during the month we stayed
There are a number of restaurants in the area that are hidden in the buildings as advertising is not allowed. One local one is a great bistro with very reasonable prices. Buses up and down Collins are very frequent. We often left our rental car in the parking if we went out to South Beach or for cocktails to North Beach. Lots to do in the area
We are planning on returning next year


Apr 2017

We spent almost 3 weeks at Bill and Diana's apartment at The Pavilion in Miami Beach. It could not have been better. The apartment is facing the ocean, it is comfortable with a Bahamian style decoration, very nice living room opening to a nice balcony where we had drinks at night. There is one large and comfortable master bedroom. The second bedroom is smaller with bunk beds, but it is very convenient with the second bathroom. Bill was waiting for us at arrival, despite our late arrival and showed us the unit.
We later asked him different things and he was very responsive, had a new hair dryer delivered immediatelly as the one in the unit was not working properly. The valet parking is convenient if you call before going downstairs, you just get your car in a minute. We can't wait to go back and rent this apartment again.


Jan 2017

It was much better than I had expected. I had just moved to Miami from NYC for work & needed a short term for a month until I find a more permanent place. The problem was that it was so nice that I did not want to go to work.

Reviewed March 23, 2016 for a stay in January and February 2016
Had wonderful 2 months in this condo. A few minor hicups, but Bill was always wonderful and responding quickly. Comfortable king bed in Master. Loved the balcony and watching the cruise ships come in and out of port. Everything you need was here. Beach beautiful. Walking excellent. Thank you once again for sharing your condo with us!

We stayed a family of 3 at this beautiful condo on the beach. The views are spectacular and it's a few min walk from the front door to the beach. You can't get any closer than this! The condo is spacious and contains everything you need for your stay from beach towels and chairs to all linens and kitchen items. It's centrally located and we love it so much we're coming back next year!


May 2015

I lived in the condo for almost 3 month. It is just great. Most of all, I enjoy the balcony and the view. It is just great to start the day with a coffee watching the dawn. William is a nice guy, easy to deal with. If I will get the chance to work for my company in Miami again, I would love to come back.


Apr 2015

My husband and I spent one month at this condo. The photos do not do the place justice. The view is absolutely terrific. We watched the cruise ships almost every day heading out for their destinations. Every morning we had our morning coffee on the balcony. If you are up early enough, you can watch the sunrise - just beautiful.
The beds were quite comfortable and there was plenty of storage. There are also beach chairs (which you need if you do not get to the beach early enough to grab a lounge chair) which are very comfortable and beach towels (which are the softest towels I have ever encountered).
William (the owner) is tremendous. He was so friendly and helpful with everything and could not do enough for us. He answered all our questions immediately and gave us a list of instructions which, once you read them, will simplify your first few hours/days at the condo.
The condo is located in a very safe area. Shopping is not too far away (but you will need a car or Uber).
We miss you (and your condo) already!

Beautiful, fully equipped 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo directly on the beach in a safe,quiet area (5600 block of Collins Avenue ).

Clean, spacious and a great owner to rent from. Proprietor takes great care of his property and is very responsive to tenants needs. Easy to work with and 100% reliable.


Nov 2014

We rented unit 611 at the Pavilion from William and our entire experience was perfect in every aspect. William was organized and efficient while being pleasant and very accommodating in answering our questions. Stepping into his condo is like having a spacious luxury suite on the finest cruise ship imaginable. The decor is comfortable and tasteful, and the spectular onceanfront view is beautiful beyond words. I now know why poets have so struggled to describe the ocean! The ocean here is Caribbean blue, full of sailboats, cruise ships, swimmers, and kiteborders, seabirds, sunlight and moonlight. It feels as if there is no reason to go any further than the spacious balcony to find paradise. We were certainly happy with the Pavilion's location on Collins Avenue and the ammenities of the resort atmosphere which was never crowded, very safe and secure, with the ever changing ocean always within view.


Sep 2014

We're an italian family of 4 people, very familiar with Miami Beach. We met William, the owner, on this site. He's a very fair gentleman, everything has been perfect with him. His property has a great location, close to the ocean, and everything works inside. The apartment is very suitable for those who want to comfortably enjoy the ocean and the beach. To tell the truth, the Pavilion has everything that is needed while on vacation. The beach in front of it is great!
We reccomend this property and its owner!

Picture Perfect beachfront rental

We stayed for a month in William's condo and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Booking and lease signing was easy and straight foward, as well as check in and out. William was a very responsive owner, who was easy to contact with questions. The photos of the view don't do it justice. When you walk in ,the apartment is awash with sunlight and fantastic views. We spent every morning sitting on the large balcony, reading and having our morning coffee. The view from the master bedroom is a wonderful way to wake up ,with ocean views while lounging in the king size bed. The apartment second bedroom has a bunk bed with a double and a twin on top. The decorations in the apartment are "beachy" and the photos are exactly as it looks. The Pavilion is a well located building and the beach was easy to get to. Beach chairs are included and we appreciated the umbrella that William has in his apartment. The path directly outside of the condo takes you down to South Beach and we rented Citibikes a few blocks from the apartment. The recently renovated pool was never crowded and was a great place to relax. Our family loved this rental and we would highly recommend it.We hope to come again some day.

Miami 2023

We have been visiting Miami for a number of years and it never disappoints, this year was no exception. It was our first time staying at the Pavillion and we truly enjoyed everything about it from the easy access to the pool deck where we never had any trouble finding chairs and an umbrella. As well it was less than a five minute walk from the unit to the comfortable and always accessible beach lounge chairs. The unit was exceptional, and William and Diana were very easy to work with, and they were very prompt and helpful when we needed it. The unit was extremely comfortable and all that you would need was supplied within the unit, it was clean and very well maintained, and of course the views were outstanding. A small ask would be a more serviceable beach umbrella, I would rate this unit exceptional. Thank you for a memorable 2023 vacation!

Owner response

Thank you, George and Nancy. We loved having you at our place. During your next stay, please let us know if something is not functioning correctly and we will repair or replace the item immediately. Case in point, had we known that the umbrellas needed replacement, we would have done so immediately. That has now been taken care of.We look forward to hosting you again next year.

Perfect vacation on amazing location in Miami Beach

We rented condo #611 at Pavillon Building in Miami Beach for one month (March/April). William and Diana are exceptional hosts/owner. They welcomed us warmly, showed us their condo ( which is nicely decorated on the theme of the sea and with a full view of the sea), presented the facilities of the building and the environment. Apart from your personal belonging and your grocery, everything is there for a successful vacation directly on the sea. We really enjoy our vacation, and we already reserved for next year. Many thanks William and Diana from Daniel & Eva (Quebec, Canada)

A magnificent beach stay in a beautiful, oceanfront apartment!

The location is amazing, the beach is in front of you. White, silky sand and turquoise waters are literally steps away. Beach chairs are provided by a full-time attendant at no cost. The apartment is fully stocked with umbrellas, coolers, a new kitchen that faces the ocean. In fact, the living room, dining room and Master Bedroom all face the ocean. The apartment is filled with beach-theme art and modern furniture that makes it very appealing and welcoming to the eyes. The balcony is my favorite spot. At sunset, you can view people skating, riding bikes and walking on the beautiful boardwalk while cruise ships sail in the distance.The newly renovated pool is olympic-size. Umbrellas and chairs are also provided with no hassles. The building offers 24-hour security, free valet parking, a playroom, a gym with new equipment and three oceanfront BBQ pits.William and Diana are excellent hosts. The welcomed us and provided all kinds of tips on dining, sightseeing and getting around.We will definitely be back next year!

A magnificent stay in a beautiful oceanfront paradise!

The apartment is filled with light and artfully decorated. Comfortably furnished with a huge king-size bed that faces the ocean and a leather sofa and loveseat that face the balcony. The balcony has wonderful views of the ocean and the cruise ships sailing by in the late afternoon...a wonderful time to sit and have a couple of glasses of wine and appetizers while taking in the sights. The dining room has seating for six people and is accompanied by four bar stools that face the counter in the kitchen. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you might need and has updated appliances (microwave, self cleaning oven, dishwasher and fridge). The bathrooms have two full showers and are updated. The second bedroom has bunk beds that are comforable for another couple or two kids. Conveniently located, the Beach access elevator is right in front of the apartment providing easy access to the beach. The building provides Beach chairs that were set up for us at no cost and the apartment has umbrellas and coolers. We practically lived on the shoreline!Bill and Diana were wonderful hosts who welcomed us to the building and gave us lots of insights into places to eat and visit.We highly recommend this stay and hope to be back next year.Marlene and John Johnson

"An excellent beach front condo"

My wife and I had the opportunity to spend the month of April in this 6th floor condo and we couldn't have been more pleased. The unit and its furnishings were excellent. Access to the beach was convenient, many restaurants were within walking distance and the entire staff were pleasant and helpful. Security was excellent.That being said, nothing beats the view from the balcony each morning watching the sun come up over the ocean. The eastern orientation is ideal for those who love the morning sun but prefer to have a cool shaded balcony during the late afternoon heat.The condo owner is an upstanding business man and a pleasure to deal with. We are looking forward to returning next year.PS forgot to mention the great beach and boardwalk.

Beautifully furnished condo with a magnificent view of the ocean

The condo is located on Collins Avenue in a beautiful well maintained older building that was constructed in the early 1970s. The unit has been renovated by the Lessor and is elegant with paintings and artifacts of a tropical nature adorning the walls throughout the unit. It overlooks the ocean and an accessible sandy beach with walkways and bicycle t4rails going on for miles. I sit on the outside balcony during the evening watching the sun set and kite surfers doing acrobatics. The condo has a magnificent outside pool and seating area as well as a beautiful fully equipped fitness centre. The unit is comfortable for up to four people and has two complete bathrooms. one with a standup shower and the other with a bathtub shower. The property is isolated on Collins Avenue as are all the other condo buildings nearby. One definitely needs a vehicle to access the entertainment and restaurant areas. One has to be mobile to enjoy what Miami has to offer. The only fault that I had with the unit is the heating. Being an older building, the cooling and heating systems are building controlled not individually per unit. I am older, 80 years of age and found the unit, especially in the evening too cool for my taste, so putting on a sweater or jacket was necessary for me. Old people are always too cold.The staff who maintain the security, maintenance and parking are wonderful and extremely out to please. I love having valet parking which is included in the rental price. Out of courtesy, I always tip a couple of bucks when they get my car for me.The area is mainly Hispanic with nationalities from Argentina, Cuba, Honduras, Venezuela, Columbia, et al, and are very friendly. Something I discovered is that a high proportion of the owners are Orthodox Jews who are very pleasant and sort of keep to their own community. There is even a synagogue on the Mezzanine floor.I had a very pleasant stay for four months over the winter season.

Thank you, Stan. We're sorry you found the apartment cold on some evenings as the apartment has its own heating/cooling thermostat which you can control at will. No need to be too cold. It's all adjustable. Nevertheless, we thoroughly enjoyed having you as our tenant.

Great accommodations!

First is all the apartment is in great shape. A lot of at work adorns the walls and the flies theme permeated the experience. Even the pitch work a lamp was noticed. The spot is great. There is no beach access for a few blocks of the property which makes it nice and peaceful without a lot of rowdiness. The beach chairs are available the entire day (maybe just on Sundays you need to go a bit earlier) and no one pushes you out. Just not having to carry chairs is a major plus. The living room and begins with 2 bathrooms tally are well designed and you don't feel cramped. Both my wife and I enjoyed our stay and plan on coming back again! Great spot...

Fabulous Location!

My husband and I spent most of April in the condo, and it was absolutely perfect! The view is to die for, the location is a perfect jumping off point for the rest of the city, and the amenities are great! We loved riding the trolley on a daily basis - it got us everywhere we needed to go - and for free! The building is gorgeous, and the staff extremely helpful.We highly recommend this unit for couples or small families. The second bedroom is perfect for the little ones, and the additional bathroom makes it easy.Bill made everything easy for us when we arrived. We'll be going back!
