Arriving in Miami: Best Routes to Take

The Miami International Aiport is just 13 miles west of Miami Beach. It is easy and convenient to drive to most Miami Beach condos. Optionally, you could take a taxi from the airport for a reasonable price.

Best Times to Enjoy Miami Beach

To arrive during the best time for climate and weather, plan your trip for the time between November and April. Generally, high season is in December and you can expect prices to increase. If you are on a budget, plan to hit Miami around late spring or summer, from May till September, when rates are lower and evening climate is cool.

Art and Culture Trip to Miami

If you love art and culture, then you’ve come to the right place. Miami is big on art. There is, for example, the Art Deco weekend, which has been happening since the early 70s and continues its tradition, bringing film critics, movie buffs and fans together. Started by the Miami Preservation League, you can join in on the action—along with a million other people on the street in Ocean Drive.

Another great event to catch is the South Beach Wine and Food Festival, every February. See celebrity chefs, food personalities, and food critics come together for this annual culinary highlight.

Or, arrive for the Ultra Music Festival, happening every spring since it first kicked off in 1999. Thousands of people come to revel in the music and join in one of the biggest world parties to celebrate electronic music and dance till the wee hours of dawn.

Other activities to try are cultural walking tours of the city or food trips (where you can indulge in melt-in-your-mouth Cuban sandwiches, local seafood, and Southern specialties like chicken and waffles). Families and couples alike will also enjoy water sports at South Beach.

Visiting Miami Beach with Children

From the majority of Miami Beach vacation rentals, it is easy to find plenty of options to entertain the kids. These include visiting the Miami Zoo, with its hundreds of interesting animal species, seeing Jungle Island and its more than 1,000 beautiful birds, or going to the Miami Children’s Museum. Here, no matter the weather or season, there will be something fun to do and learn for kids and adults alike.

The Miami Seaquarium is also worth visiting; here you can see alligators, dolphins, and all kinds of fish. Get acquainted with the well-loved animals here, and let your kids thoroughly enjoy their vacation too! Older kids will surely enjoy sightseeing from a boat cruise around Miami's Biscayne Bay.

Fantastic Miami Beach vacation rentals are perfect for those looking for an affordable beach vacation. Influences from the Cuban and other international communities ensure the vibe is always lively, energetic, and fun. From helicopter tours to sight-seeing cruises and romantic evenings by the Bay, you are certain to experience a varied and exciting vacation in Miami.
