All Year Round
For pure indulgence, Miami is your best bet. Whether you're in search of a wildly hedonistic getaway or pure pampering then look no further. Latin, Caribbean, and East Coast influences swirl together in an imaginative, sun-kissed culture that exists nowhere else.
Affectionately called SoBe to those in the know, South Beach is the hot sauce that gives the city its spice. It is a magnet for the world's jet-set and glitterati as they flock to unwind in the trendiest hotels, hottest clubs and hippest bars in the world. The multicoloured Art Deco houses that define the area are a testament to the fun, vibrant and lively atmosphere the place has to offer. Much like the city itself, South Beach is all about glitz, glamour and looking good. This is one place where you can truly enjoy life and indulge in pure fun.
Spend the day lounging on South Beach perfecting your South Beach tan and jump on a Jet Ski for a tour of the city, taking in the finest of Miami's über glam islands, before setting your sights on your favourite for lunch and snorkelling. For a bit more adrenaline boosting activity we suggest a trip to Haulover Beach Park, one of a handful of areas in Miami to surf and windsurf. Having worked your way along Miami Beach, sit back and marvel at the incredible views and sounds of Ocean Drive, sip cocktails in ocean-fronted bars before heading out to enjoy the legendary nightlife and entertainment on offer.
Now the city that never sleeps may not be your first choice for art and culture but once a year it does cater to one of the art calendar's hottest fairs. Escape the winter blues and enjoy Art Basel Miami Beach. A cultural and social highlight for the Americas and the sister event of Switzerland's Art Basel.
With the hottest bars and restaurants falling out of favour every other week we have made sure that our local experts our kept up to date with what's hot and what's not. They will make reservations at the top restaurants, bars and clubs, so that you will definitely be in the right places on the right nights.
For real decadence we suggest you stay at the stylish Setai Hotel, which alongside being one of the best places to celebrity spot, is sexy, modern opulence in all its glory: Black granite bathrooms with rainfall showers; unparalleled views of the Miami shoreline; a luxurious spa; three magnificent azure pools; and a 90 foot outdoor bar. It is said that it brings new meaning to the word luxury, and we would be hard pressed to disagree
