Sense28 Edgewater, an AvantStay Hotel
A rooftop pool base close to the Arsht Center
About this hotel
Sense28 Edgewater backs its rooftop claim with a genuine pool and fitness centre on the roof, supported by a 24-hour front desk and concierge service that make the building feel more managed than a typical short-term rental in the neighborhood. Rooms lean toward full apartments rather than hotel doubles, with kitchens, balconies, washing machines, tea and coffee makers, and a shared work desk and dining area for anyone staying more than a few nights in the city. The location puts Bayside Marketplace and Lincoln Road within reach without the Brickell price tag, and the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts sits about two kilometers away for an evening at the theater. Miami International Airport is roughly ten kilometers from the building, a manageable taxi ride either way.

Our take
I would book Sense28 Edgewater for a week or more in Miami rather than a single night. The apartment-style units come with a kitchen, a balcony and a washing machine, and the rooftop pool gives you a proper place to swim without leaving the building. The Adrienne Arsht Center is about two kilometres away. A 9.3 rating is strong, but it rests on only 57 reviews, and you get a concierge rather than full hotel service.
- ✓Book here specifically if you want a real kitchen and washing machine for a stay longer than a weekend in Miami.
- ✓Use the rooftop pool and fitness centre in the morning before the building's other apartment guests start their day.
- ✓Budget a short rideshare into Brickell or downtown if you want nightlife beyond Edgewater's quieter residential streets.
Why we love it

Why guests love itOne traveler who stayed ten nights at Sense28 for a work trip said the rooftop pool was what made the routine bearable: laptop at the shared desk by day, then a late swim as the light faded over Edgewater. Having a full kitchen and a washing machine meant fewer restaurant evenings and lighter luggage. The trade-off was the lobby, with concierge help rather than a busy front desk, which suited a long stay better than a quick city break.
