Resort is old with no renovation. It has 4 or 5 floors with elevator. Most of the rooms have partial sea view. Our room was turned to the other side then the pool was. There is a privite beach club and one night during our 6 day stay they played live music in this beach club. The music stopped at... More

The Thunderbird is definitely a thowback to the Miami Beach "spring break" and Americana days; unfortunately if you go for such places, as opposed to South Beach luxury or condo rentals, they are literally few and far between and naturally on the expensive side themselves by now. While worn, the Thunderbird is still literally on the beach. I lucked out... More

You could definately find a better hotel. It was not really bad, but the bathroom floor was covered with hair when we arrived, which I find disgusting. The beach is really nice, breakfast is poor, staff not really friendly. It was ok, but just ok... More

Never got what we reserved, but after a chat with the manager, we had a good room, have been here before, when it was a best western, now its a days inn, its one of the original old motel typs on the beach, its a real shame trumpy bought up all the land, spoilt sunny ilse beach, as the sun... More

The room was clean and functional. tile floors and basic bathroom. lovely little balcony with great view of the seafoam green ocean and large magnificent aqua pool. Breakfast was coffee, watered down oj and either a bagel, toast or cold cereal. Not worth considering breakfast, though for the price you could just go across to Denny's. No obvious way to... More

Nothing turned as reserved. The manager, Michael R., treated us disrspectfully. The bed sheets were shorter than the bed, the air conditioner was very strong ( iMarch 1st ) with no chance to handle individually but centrally, the room maids delayed the cleaning of the rooms as there are very few per lots of rooms. I came back at 2... More

I grew up in Miami in the 1960s and remember this hotel from then. At that time Sunny Isles Beach was filled with small motels on the beach. Most are gone, replaced by high rise condos and luxury hotels. But the Thunderbird remains, looking not much different than it did back then. Pretty much all the previous reviews are on... More
