Our last trip this year, started with a work stay in Miami (closed out with my other recent posts from Celebration & JFK). Sometimes my corporate rate hits the price range where I can stay on South Beach at the Royal Palm South Beach Miami, a Tribute Portfolio Resort.
Â
I was in Miami for work with MaureenTravels joining me, and the Royal Palm is a favorite location of ours. It is a “resort” property, so is excluded from some benefits like late checkout, but Ambassador recognition is very good here, with consistent upgrades and there is a good included buffet breakfast. A $33/daily resort fee is in effect – unless you have access to a corporate rate that waives it
Parking is valet only at $50/day.

Due to project changes, I ended up with a 1 night, followed by a 3 night reservation. I applied my last remaining SNA to the 1 night and it was approved from my base corporate rate, King Room to a Jr Suite, Corner King with 2 balconies.
Â
During check in with the Front Desk Agent, I was able to combine both reservations and remain in a King, Jr Suite with 2 balconies. The FDA and manager on duty did have to move the room from the top, 17th floor for the 1 night with SNA, to the 9th floor (same corner), to keep us in the same room throughout our entire 4 night stay.
Â
This was another very good stay for us here. We’ve never had a bad experience and love the overall vibe we get from this property and its staff. It’s in a great location – within easy walking distance to every restaurant and everything on South Beach. We walked to dinner one night at the Havana 1957 Cuban Cuisine, and it was fantastic.
Â
During conversation with some of the staff, we learned that the hotel is about to undergo an update/remodel. We can’t wait to see what’s coming up for one of our favorite locations.
Â
In case you’re counting, that’s two of our go-to locations in Florida getting updates next year ![🙂](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/ta5/1.5/16/1f642.png)
