I spent this past weekend in Miami to celebrate my friend Haley’s birthday. After years of hearing that everyone is either a). scantily dressed b). pretentiously wealthy, scowling at everyday peasants from their yachts. c). on drugs. or d). old and retired, it was so fun to experience this city for myself. Stereotypes aside, I found it to be vibrant, alive and bursting with culture. There’s a lot more to Miami than palm trees and south beach
My time was short, but my experience was fantastic. So if you’re looking to plan your own Miami getaway, might I suggest some of my favorite highlights for you to consider:
STAY
We opted to stay in Surfside, which is slightly north of the hustle and bustle of South Beach for a more relaxing pace, and we had a fantastic stay at the Grand Beach Hotel (also a location in _____).
