At Retreats Miami, we have hosted guests in this penthouse for more than 10 years, and the questions we hear before booking rarely change: how close is the sand, where does the car go, and who is the unit built for. This guide answers each one in order, with the house rules included.

Demand for South Beach stays keeps climbing. Greater Miami and Miami Beach welcomed 28.3 million visitors in 2026, according to the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB), so well-placed units in South of Fifth tend to fill early in 2026. Knowing exactly what you are getting helps you decide quickly.

One caution before the details. 360 Collins is a building with multiple units, and several listings share the address. Everything below describes unit 404th specifically, and a later section shows how to confirm you are looking at the right one.

What Is 404th 360 Collins in Miami Beach, FL?

404th 360 Collins is a recently renovated, top-floor corner penthouse condo in South of Fifth, the quiet residential pocket at the southern tip of South Beach. It has two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and room for six guests, and Retreats Miami has hosted stays here for over 10 years.

The building is an art deco-styled five-story with an elevator. It carries the pastel look of the neighborhood but was built in the early 2000s, so the styling is deco while the construction is recent. The tourism bureau’s Explore South Beach page describes the Art Deco architecture and beach setting that define the area.

Being the corner unit on the top floor matters in practice. Light arrives from two directions, and no neighbors live above, so there are no footsteps overhead. Over 330 reviews have accumulated since the unit started hosting, and one guest called it “a beautiful perch in the most desirable residential neighborhood in South Beach.”

How Close Is the Penthouse to the Beach and South of Fifth?

The penthouse sits one block from the sand in South of Fifth, with South Pointe Park, South Pointe Pier, and a playground a short walk away. A quiet residential street runs below the balcony, so the beach is close while the block itself stays calm.

Beach days run on stocked gear. The unit has beach chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, sand toys, and beach towels, all stored in the building garage across from parking spot 1st. Because the shore is so near, you will likely walk back for lunch instead of packing a bag of snacks.

The host lists several neighborhood landmarks nearby: Joe’s Stone Crab, Prime 112, Milos, Smith & Wollensky, Monty’s, and Nikki Beach. Joe’s is known for stone crab, a seasonal dish, and has historically drawn a line, so check current reservation and takeout options before you go. Nikki Beach is a beach club, better for a daytime outing than a quiet evening.

Walk Ocean Drive for the neon and deco facades; for a calmer meal, stay in South of Fifth. The tourism bureau’s Explore Miami Beach page separates South Beach, Mid Beach, and North Beach, which helps if you are weighing which end of the island suits your trip.

How Does the Two-Bedroom Layout Work for Two Couples or a Family?

The two-bedroom layout puts the king bedroom and the queen bedroom at opposite ends of the floor plan, each near its own full bath. Two couples or a family spread out without crossing paths, and a queen sofa bed in the living room covers guests five and six.

The king bedroom has a closet, a dresser, a wall-mounted TV, and an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in glass shower and a backlit mirror. The queen bedroom has its own closet and dresser plus a full-length mirror, and it sits near the second bathroom, which has a tub-shower combo. Both bathrooms come with fresh towels and shampoo, plus conditioner.

Our advice on who takes which room: give the king to the pair who values a private shower and a TV, and give the queen to the pair who wants the quieter end of the unit. Six guests is the ceiling, not the sweet spot. Four adults is comfortable, and guests five and six share a living room that doubles as the TV area and the route to the balcony.

The living room has a slipcovered sofa, a swivel armchair, and a marble coffee table facing a wall-mounted TV. You get HBO, Netflix, Prime, and Disney streaming, plus board games for a rainy afternoon. The open kitchen’s bar counter keeps the cook in the conversation.

What Is the Balcony Like, and Does the Top-Floor Corner Position Matter?

The balcony is a covered, north-facing outdoor space off the living room, fitted with a bistro table and outdoor furniture. It overlooks the pastel art deco rooftops of South of Fifth, with a peek of the ocean down the street.

Be realistic about that ocean view: it is a peek, not a panorama. What the balcony does well is stay usable. The north-facing cover keeps it comfortable through midday sun and Miami showers, so coffee in the morning and a drink after dinner both work outside.

Neighborhood parrots make regular flyovers, and guests mention them often. The balcony overlooks a quiet residential street, which is why evening here sounds like a neighborhood rather than a strip. Glass doors open straight from the living room, so the space works as an extra room.

What Amenities Come With the Stay?

Amenities at 404th 360 Collins include a full kitchen, an in-unit washer and dryer, central air conditioning, WiFi, streaming, stocked beach gear, and baby equipment. The table below summarizes the verified details, with room-by-room specifics after it.

The full kitchen sits behind dark wood cabinetry and is stocked with cooking basics, dishes, and silverware. The marble-look bar counter seats three, which is where meals and morning coffee tend to happen. A balcony bistro table handles anything you would rather eat outside.

The coffee setup has one catch worth knowing. The Nespresso takes original line pods, not Vertuo, so bring yours from home or buy a box nearby. A drip coffee maker is also on the counter if pods slip your mind.

The condo is professionally cleaned between stays, with beach towels and starter supplies ready on arrival. A smoke detector and a decibel monitor are installed out of care for neighbors.

How Do Parking, Check-In, and Getting Around Work?

Parking at 404th 360 Collins is a free assigned spot in the building garage, and check-in runs through a smart lock with codes sent before arrival. Street parking in South Beach is paid, so the garage spot removes a daily hassle.

The garage fits sedans and compact cars comfortably. Larger vehicles have squeezed in, but if you are renting an SUV or minivan, message us first and we will help you plan parking. Garage entry has a manual button inside as well as the remote clicker, which helps if the clicker misbehaves.

Step-by-step check-in instructions arrive before you do, and the elevator takes you to the top floor. The host is not on site during your stay, which keeps the unit private, but our team answers by email or phone around the clock.

Once you park, the car can stay put. Citi Bike rentals are available around the home, the Miami Beach Trolley runs free rides around the city, and ride-sharing covers longer trips. Miami International Airport is about 9.4 miles away, roughly 25 minutes by car without traffic, so allow extra time at rush hour.

What House Rules, Deposits, and Taxes Should You Know Before Booking?

House rules at 404th 360 Collins include quiet hours from 10 PM to 8 AM, no smoking, no pets, and no unregistered guests. A refundable $350 security deposit is collected after booking and is separate from the booking total shown at checkout.

• Smoking: not allowed; a $350 fine applies and is taken from the security deposit.
• Pets: not permitted.
• Extra guests: tell us in advance; a $150 per night fine applies per unregistered guest.
• Quiet hours: 10 PM to 8 AM, out of respect for the building’s neighbors.
• Photography: no commercial photography without notice.
• Shoes: off inside, please.

Lodging taxes add to the total. Miami-Dade County states a 6% tourist-tax component on short-term rentals of six months or less, and Miami Beach short-term rentals additionally pay a 4% city Resort Tax, per the county’s Tourist and Restaurant Taxes page. Rates can change, so the booking page shows current totals, and we do not quote nightly rates in articles for the same reason.

Booking through retreatsmiami.com skips the OTA service fee and puts you in touch with a host who answers the phone. For a closer look at the numbers, read where your money actually goes when you book direct versus Airbnb.

Who Is This Penthouse Best For, and Who Should Skip It?

The penthouse suits couples, two-couple trips, and small families who want a quiet, walkable base in South of Fifth. Groups planning late nights or traveling with pets should look elsewhere, because the building keeps 10 PM quiet hours and does not allow pets.

Couples get the most from the covered balcony and the king bedroom’s private shower. Two couples benefit from the opposite-end bedrooms, which give each pair real separation. Families with young children will find a pack and play, a high chair, a baby monitor, and babysitter recommendations available, with the playground and South Pointe Park a short walk away.

Weekend visitors do well here too. Self check-in, a stocked beach kit, and a garage spot mean you can arrive, drop bags, and be on the sand within minutes. Skip this unit if your plan is to stumble home from Ocean Drive at 2 AM; the quiet building is a feature for restful sleepers and a constraint for night owls.

What Else Is Nearby Beyond the Beach?

Beyond the beach, 404th 360 Collins sits within a short ride of Wynwood Walls, Pérez Art Museum Miami, and Vizcaya Museum and Gardens. The table below lists approximate distances and drive times; add a buffer for traffic and event days.

How Can You Confirm You Are Booking the Right Unit at 360 Collins?

Confirming the right unit means matching the unit number, the host’s registration details, and the listing’s bed and bath counts before you pay. At 360 Collins, a multi-unit building in South of Fifth, several listings share one street address, so unit 404th is the detail to verify.

Start with the specifics. Unit 404th is a top-floor corner two-bedroom with a king, a queen, and a queen sofa bed, two full baths, a free garage spot, and a covered balcony. If a listing at the same address shows different bedrooms, no garage, or a lower floor, it is a different unit. Check-in and check-out times and minimum renter age vary by listing, so confirm those on the booking page too.

Also confirm the rental is authorized. The City of Miami Beach’s Practice Safe Renting page explains that unauthorized rentals can lead to visitor eviction and owner fines, and it provides a customer-service number for verification. Ask any host for registration details before paying; our team handles questions by phone or email.

When Should You Book 404th 360 Collins in 2026?

Booking early matters in 2026 because Miami Beach demand spikes around major events and winter weeks. CoStar figures reported by Miami Today put Miami Beach occupancy at 90.8% on Dec. 8, 2023, during Art Basel week, and the GMCVB lists the FIFA World Cup among 2026 demand drivers.

Outside those peaks, the market is less tight. AirDNA reports Miami Beach short-term rentals averaged 52% occupancy, which leaves room for flexible dates. Weekend nights typically book before weekdays, so a Sunday-to-Thursday stay is the easier one to land.

If your dates overlap the fair, read where to stay near Art Basel Miami Beach in 2026 and plan ahead. For a wider trip plan, the Miami travel guide for 2026 lists what to book before you land. Availability and pricing change daily, so the live booking page is the only source to trust.
