Reviews

Milan 8/10

Pros: The Setai Hotel is one of the best hotels on South Beach and we go there repeatedly. It has a top staff that is still the same at least in the 8 years that we have been going there, which is always proof that the hotel is well managed and has a low staff turnover. The Setai has great breakfasts and room service and service on the beach.

Cons: In the years that we have been going to the Setai, however, everything has remained the same, including the rooms, which already seem very outdated and worn out. If it should remain like this, we will choose another hotel for our next visits.

It was an awesome experience worthy to celebrate my fiance's birthday!!

Pros: The welcome was exceptional. The desk clerk showed us to the room and she gave us a real life tour....awesome plus she gave my fiance a personal birthday welcome from Setai...the bell hops were courteous and welcoming. The ROOM WAS SPOTLESS and I loved the partial ocean view. Breakfast had a wide variety. Housekeeping, front desk and the floor manager were warm and responsive to any issue. They had a birthday champagne welcome for my fiance in the room and also at breakfast. They suggested Casa Tua for the birthday dinner and made a reservation for me...I would go back RIGHT NOW!!!

Cons: Just a few things if I want to be hypercritical and to nitpick 1. There were a few small flies in the buffet area- which is hard to control because its food which attracts flies 2. Walking through the restaurant area to get to the beach/spa/gym esp on the Sunday - I felt cute since other attendees were well-dressed for Sunday brunch. I wasn't too sure how to navigate those areas without going way outside the hotel 3. The necessary nearby construction- sounds of drills were heard in the breakfast hall, but earplugs were available at the pool to block this out if you were chilling at the pool

The attention to detail was truly remarkable—from the impeccably clean rooms to the thoughtful amenities provided. It was evident that the staff goes above and beyond to ensure every guest feels cared for. I was especially impressed by the personalized service and how every need seemed to be anticipated.
