This has been our third time in Julie´s apt, we simply love it and think it´s just perfect. We´d certainly go back and we highly recommend it on account of comfort, location and hosting services. It´s a fantastic apt, all the rooms are very spacious and luminous. All the appliances are brand-new and work perfectly, the matching furniture is fashionable and was recently upgraded. The master bedroom is large and light, and so is the master bathroom, which provides an interesting view to the sunset, the city of Miami and north Miami Beach. . We stayed there with our two grownup daughters, but it felt we were staying in a big house, since the master bedroom and bathroom were kind of separated from the second bedroom and bathroom by the living room/kitchen area. There are plenty of elevators, and they´re unbelievable fast so you get up or down in no time. There is a small laundry room for washer and drier inside the apt, so the noise of the machines does not bother. The beach is ideal and the resort service is well-organized and efficient. La Perla stands by the “Sunny Island Fishing Pier”. The pier is an additional attraction. It´s free for tourists holding a La Perla ID, and you can take great pictures of different sea life creatures as they swim underneath. The pier restaurant´s specializes on seafood and it is convenient for lunch, supper or a drink at midnight. The view to the sea is amazing and unforgettable, and you can enjoy lovely sunsets from the back balcony while having a cold beer. There are super-relaxing chairs there for enjoying a morning coffee as you plan the day ahead. The neighbourhood is the best: 7-11 almost opposite, Starbuck´s, Papa John´s, CVS, Walgreens, Marshall´s and Milam´s supermarket are five minutes away on foot. Besides there are about a dozen restaurants featuring ethnical cuisine (Asian, Russian and Latin American). You don´t really need to go to town when staying at Sunny Isles, as Aventura Mall is like 10 minutes away by car and Bal Harbour Shops is five minutes by car from the apt. If you want to take a break from your driving, you can get to Aventura Mall on the S or 120 (limited stops) bus, it´s a nice ride through marinas into the sub-urban city of Aventura. The hostess is available at all times and politely answers any possible queries, even during arrangements for renting. The timing for checking in and out has always been flawless.
