Tahiti Motel - Miami Beach

Miami Beach, Florida, United States

Judging by postcards, this motel was built in the 1940s-50s.

Advertising from its later years boasted: "King Size Rooms & Kitchenette Efficiencies - Completely Air Conditioned & Heated - 'Tiki' Coffee Shop - Recreation Room - Heated Fresh Water Swimming Pool - Shuffleboard - 200 Feet Private Beach - Free TV - Free parking at your Door - Open All Year."

It began with a relatively simple facade and pastel/pink color scheme. Later, they went full "Tiki" with several masks out front and the "Tiki Coffee Shop."

This building was torn down to make way for Jade Signature Condos in 2018.
