Neighborhoods to Know

Brickell
A sleek urban core of glass towers, waterfront walks, and business-meets-leisure energy. Ideal for dining reservations, rooftop moments, and easy access to downtown.

Downtown + Waterfront
Museums, arenas, bayside promenades, and new architectural icons—perfect for a day that moves from culture to cocktails without crossing the causeway.

Wynwood
Miami’s creative engine: galleries, murals, studios, and buzzy patios. Go for art walks, stay for design-forward retail and chef-driven spots.

Miami Design District
Luxury fashion, contemporary architecture, and public art—where shopping feels like a gallery experience.

South Beach
Art Deco heritage, oceanfront scenes, and people-watching at its finest. Come for the beach, linger for the restaurants and nightlife.

Coconut Grove
Leafy streets, marinas, and a slower, more residential rhythm—great for a reset afternoon or a long brunch.

Little Havana
Cultural Miami in motion—cafecitos, music, and small moments that feel like a portal to the city’s roots.
