Miami, Florida is a year-round temperate destination known for its Atlantic beaches, Cuban expat culture, and wide range of shopping and dining. Miami vacation home rentals are as varied as the city itself, ranging from modern condos with seaside views to massive estates with vast private pools and other amenities.
Flying into Miami
The city is served by the Miami International Airport, a major hub for transatlantic, Latin American, and North American flights. To get to Miami Beach, take the Airport Flyer Bus. The Metrorail will take you straight to the Government Center station in downtown Miami. You could also rent a car or take a taxi to reach your Miami accommodation.
Culture and local crafts in Miami
For a different side of Miami's culture, visit the free Lock & Load Museum. This educational institute displays firearms and handguns from the past and present and takes a look at what they might be like in the future. There is also a collection of missiles, battleship projectiles, and swords, as well as other wartime items.
The open-air Bayside Marketplace is as great for entertainment as it is for shopping. Besides the many stores, restaurants (particularly great Latin cuisine), and cocktail bars, the mall's Marina Stage offers daily live music, with a variety of bands and local performers playing. From Bayside Marketplace you can also embark on a boat tour of the coast.
Miami with kids
The Zoological Wildlife Foundation is spread over five acres and is home to domestic animals as well as more exotic species, like tigers, sloths, chimpanzees, and gibbon apes.
For a day at the beach the whole family will enjoy, head to South Pointe Park Pier. The beach here is part of a 17-acre park, and you'll find convenient facilities like restaurants, outdoor showers, and a playground.
Great beaches and interesting neighbourhoods
From your Miami vacation rental head across I-95 to Miami Beach. As the name implies, it's time to hit the beach. The long stretch of wide open, white sand known as 21st–45th Street Beach is ideal for sunbathing and swimming without the crowds.
Once in Miami Beach, enjoy shopping and dining on pedestrian-only Lincoln Road, or get a dose of culture at The Bass, an Art Deco museum devoted to contemporary art.
