Where to stay on a honeymoon in Miami
by Petercfc
Hi all,
I have booked flights to Miami next June as part of my honeymoon. I am really looking for advice regarding areas of Miami to stay and good hotels. Really looking for the quiet end of town but don’t want to be in the middle of nowhere . Being a honeymoon we don’t want to slum it but then we are not made of money so we have a budget of around $1,000 for 7 nights.
Any advice on hotels or areas to stay or visit would be great.
Thanks in advance
Peter

1000$ US for 7 nights is not much for a good Hotel in Miami I would say 250 per night *****Google Miami Vacations there are many Hotels from 2 star to 5 Star

Please remember that Miami is really 3 distinct areas. Miami..Miami Beach.. and South Beach which is lower Miami Beach. You probably want South Beach which is lots of fun. Hotels there are The national,Loews,Ritz and many others. Use caution when booking in South Beach and do not book only according to price
Once you book online you will not receive any refunds from the terrible hotels. I booked on line and received a room with a broken window and no towels,a horrible room. South Beach is great at the right hotel. Have fun
Travel Tips for Miami
two days after a cruise, where to stay
by cochinjew
Unfortunately, Miami and FLL are not practical in terms of budget travelling. Taxi from the seaport would set you back a sum. if you are coming into FLL it is better to go somewhere near FLL.. Hollywood Beach is a good option, right on the beach, lots of places to eat and you MIGHT be able to get a place to stay around 80 usd?
Hollywood beach is fairly close to FLL airport so that would be an advantage as well. I have stayed in that part many times, and there are reasonable places to eat along the broadwalk: mexican, turkish, vegetarian, organic, middle eastern and even american!
All the best to you..
Miami Bayside
by chancay
In 5 hours you got only a very superficial impression. Passing by the streets to the bayside I saw a lot of poverty I did not expect before. Interesting for Miami is that half of the town seems to be a latin town, so much spanish speaking people, impressing.
I felt at all quite insecure, prtobably also because of my very "rusty" english knowledge at that time.

Floridian Golf
by CanuckMark
There are plenty of golf courses in the Miami area, the Doral being the most famous.
If you're like me, and don't golf unless you have to, then there are a couple of things to know about Miami golfing.
1) Don't go during the middle of the day. It can be hotter than the depths of hell, and if you don't really love the game - then it may not be any fun at all...
2) Courses are busy during the weekends. It is not uncommon to be asked to play with another group and to speed up your game during play. Don't seek solitude on the course
3) They serve alcohol on most courses by way of a bar cart. Need I say more?? Bring your own clubs if you are a fanatic. Otherwise, the clubhouse or proshop has high-end rentals for reasonable rates.
Everglades National Park
by goingsolo
Spanning the southern tip of the Florida peninsula and most of Florida Bay, Everglades National Park is the only subtropical preserve in North America. It contains both temperate and tropical plant communities, including sawgrass prairies, mangrove and cypress swamps, pinelands, and hardwood hammocks, as well as marine and estuarine environments. The park is known for its rich bird life, particularly large wading birds, such as the roseate spoonbill, wood stork, great blue heron and a variety of egrets. It is also the only place in the world where alligators and crocodiles exist side by side.
Everglades National Park has been designated a World Heritage Site, an International Biosphere Reserve, and a Wetland of International Importance.
