Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make a reservation?
Please use the reservation page to inquire about the unit and period that you are interested in. I will reply with availability and price information (generally within 24 hours). If the unit is available, you will be given the option to sign a short term rental agreement.
How does the whole rental process work?
Once you send the signed agreement back, you will be asked to make a $300 security deposit to confirm your reservation.  Rent is due upon arrival and the security deposit is refunded to you once the unit has been checked following your departure. On the day of your arrival, my property manager will arrange for your keys and be on call in case you encounter any difficulties at any point during your stay.
Can I use my credit card to make the security deposit?
Yes. Visa and MasterCard are accepted via Paypal. Please note that I will only accept deposits from the verified contract holder. To ensure a secure transaction, all rental payments must be made using Paypal, which will also verify my identity to you.
What facilities are in the building?
Both units are in the Delrio, a 1950's era art deco condo-hotel at 11th &Collins. The Delrio has a terrace on the rooftop and  coin operated laundry facilities on the ground floor. You'll also find a cafe on the ground floor with internet facilities and a porch where you can have breakfast and read your morning newspaper. There is no pool (the public beach being 1 block away).
What is the difference between your condo and hotel room?
My units are almost twice the size of a standard hotel room, and the bedrooms are separated from the living area. They have a full kitchen including dishwasher and microwave. The front unit has two bathrooms. Both units also have special sound-insulating windows, so they are quieter than most hotel rooms in the area. You are provided with all linens, towels, etc. but there is no daily disturbance from room service.
How do I get there?
The easiest way is to take a taxi or the airport shuttle bus, and ask to be taken to "the corner of 11th Street and Collins Avenue on Miami Beach", our building is directly across from the Tudor Hotel, and next to the Nash Hotel.
When driving: Follow I-95 onto I-395 East. I-395 becomes the Macarthur Causeway which eventually becomes 5th Street on South Beach. Continue on 5th Street to Collins Avenue. Turn left (north) onto Collins Avenue and proceed to 11th Street. The Del Rio will be on the left hand side of Collins Avenue (on the far corner of 11th). It is an approx. 30 minute drive from the airport.
Will I need a car?
If you are flying to Miami, I recommend that you save yourself the hassle and expense of a rental car. You will not need one since local attractions are within easy walking distance of the condo. For excursions, you can still obtain a rental car on Miami Beach at one of the local rental offices.
Where do I find off-street parking?
There are secure garages nearby which will look after your vehicle for between $6-9 per day. I recommend the municipal garage at 12th and Washington Drive (just 1 block away, behind the City Police Station), the city garages at 9th/13th and Collins Ave, or the Pelican Garage at 10th and Collins Ave (just 1/2 block away).
What if I still have questions?
Feel free to send me an email with any questions you may have, or we can chat via Skype.
