Miami is one of the nation’s most well rounded
metropolitan
destinations due to
its colorful arts scene,
world-class shopping, family
attractions, and
internationally
renowned hotspot Miami Beach.
Vibrant and charged
with the energy of
Caribbean rhythms,
Miami means big-city sophistication and seductive
beaches to those who
plug into its unique
brand of electric
charge.
The art-deco
district in
South Beach,
a.k.a. SoBe, is a
must-see for anyone
interested in the
marriage of art with
functionality in
city design and is
Miami’s acclaimed
district for naughty
and nice. Ocean Drive, SoBe’s
much-photographed
street, faces a
wide, bustling beach
and is lined with
its historic Art
Deco gems. Intimate,
chic hotels have
taken up in the
jauntily painted
masterpieces, their
lively cafés
spilling onto the
sidewalk with hip
clientele, wannabe
fashion model
servers, and Latin
tunes. A block off
Ocean, all-night
clubs and drag bars
pick up the tempo.
Edgy art galleries
and museums, chi-chi
restaurants, and the
most design-forward
of restored hotels
contribute to SoBe’s
reputation as it
follows Collins
Avenue along Miami
Beach’s Golden Mile
and to the newly
fashionable
neighborhoods of
North Miami Beach,
Sunny Isles
and, on the
mainland,
Aventura.
North Beach is
perfect for those
who enjoy nostalgic
50’s motifs and
ocean views. Go for
a beachside stroll
or toward Haulover park
for fishing, bike
rides, tennis or a
round of golf. Two
family attractions –
Jungle Island
and
Miami Children’s
Museum – are
conveniently located
in the vicinity of
Miami’s busy cruise
ship port.
These elements
combine to make
Miami Beach the
place for ocean-side
relaxation, fine
dining, shopping and
nighttime
entertainment.
Resorts of choice
for your Miami
vacation include the
South Beach Marriott,
Courtyard by
Marriott Miami Beach
Oceanfront and
the
Trump International
Sonesta Beach Resort. |
