Curator’s statement
Miami is an incredible spot for spring break, regardless of age. Miami is an incredibly diverse city with attractions for everyone. Whether you're wanting a relaxing week at the beach, or an exciting night downtown, Miami offers world-class sights, eats and stays.
Miami is a great place for spring break. It has great weather and incredible influence from the Caribbean and Cuba, and a wonderful culture of hospitality everywhere you go. In general, Miami is more lively than some of the other Floridian cities, because of the robust nightlife and late-night attractions. Whether you're going for an exciting adventure with your friends, or a relaxing week with the kids, Miami is one of the best spring break trips you can take.

Day 1: Arrive in Miami

The Miami International Airport is a hub for both local and international travelers, with many attractions around the area. Close to the airport, you can find one of Miami's cultural epicenters- Little Havana. Miami is known for its strong Cuban influences, and Little Havana offers an immersive experience into the local culture and cuisine. Walk around and experience the incredible weather, brightly-colored buildings, vivid murals and live music on every corner. There are many hole-in-the-wall restaurants, local boutiques and great shopping to be experienced here right after you step off your plane.
If you're looking for a more luxurious first stop, head to Coral Gables. This upscale neighborhood offers amazing Spanish influence in the architecture and food, and feels a lot like Rodeo Drive in Los Angeles. After shopping, enjoy some tapas at the Bulla Gastrobar and the incredible ambiance of this Spanish-inspired spot.
After checking into your hotel, head to Flamingo/Lummus for more upscale dining and shops, at the edge of the Atlantic. One of the best steaks I've had was there, at Prime 112 Restaurant.
Day 2: Museums and Contemporary Leisure

Check out the Perez Art Museum (PAMM) and indulge in the contemporary designs and amazing waterfront views.
After enjoying the museum, head to Miami's Design District for luxurious shopping, incredible views and more refined dining options. Here, you can find Pharrell William's Swan Restaurant, a European-inspired cafe with incredible picture opportunities and an organic feel. I greatly enjoyed the Steak Frites and the Watermelon Smash cocktail (so good!).
After lunch, continue to explore downtown and all Miami has to offer- streetside music, the cutest boutiques, incredible Cuban coffee and of course, amazing weather.
For dinner, enjoy a refined Japanese meal at the Iconic Zuma restaurant. The sleek atmosphere, incredibly attentive staff and amazing plates make this restaurant one of Miami's best stops. At their flagship location, enjoy seasonal dishes and family-style platting, with whimsical ingredients and an incredible attention to detail. If you're looking to dine here, we can make reservations during your trip planning. I would recommend making a reservation to secure a table and to experience this wonderful restaurant.
Day 3: Biscayne Bay Getaway

One of the most iconic images of Miami is from Biscayne Bay — with its incredible emerald and turquoise waters. This part of Miami is dripping in opulence and can be easily curated to fit your travel needs.
Check out Vizcaya Museum for breathtaking views from their gardens, waterfront terrace and contemporary art pieces. This amazing venue hosts not only spectacular views, but great food as well. Stop by the cafe for great tapas and sandwiches, glasses of wine, and coffee. Immerse yourself in the Miami landscape on their terrace, and enjoy a peaceful start to the day.
After the museum, book a chartered boat for a personalized tour of the bay from the water. Enjoy the crystal clear waters and incredible wildlife, while having a private and relaxing day with your group. Charters can be arranged depending on group size and needs.
After your tour, wind down with fresh seafood at Joe's Stone Crab. Since 1913, Joe's has been a popular destination for incredibly fresh crab and amazing service. I enjoyed the King Crab Cakes and the Coconut Shrimp while visiting. Reservations can be made during the planning of your trip.
Day 4: Key Largo and a Boat Excursion

Miami is home to some of the best beaches and waters in the world. Why boat for one day? Charter a private yacht or pontoon and explore the famous Key Largo. Whether you're wanting to golf, relax in the sand or visit the local town, Key Largo is the epitome of the picturesque Florida getaway.
Tours can be arranged to suit the needs of your travel, with varying levels of service, food offerings and timelines fit for every group. I highly suggest chartering a boat to experience the magnificent emerald waters and pearly sand, especially closer to sunset. The sunsets on the coast are absolutely unbeatable — what a way to enjoy your last night in paradise!
Day 5: Relax and Enjoy

Enjoy the exclusive Fora benefits of late check-outs, allowing you and your group to relax and enjoy your last morning of the trip.
After checkout, head to Edge Brassiere & Cocktail Lounge to enjoy a fantastic brunch on the rooftop, overlooking the Miami Bay.
After brunch, soak up the sun and relax with a walk through the Miami Design District, and pick up last-minute boutique and luxury finds. This is the perfect way to spend the last few hours in Miami — surrounded by unbeatable culture and weather.
Head toward the airport and stop at Fogo De Chao for lunch before takeoff. Enjoy premium-cut meats, fantastic sides and upscale ambiance as the finale to your trip.
Additional days

Additional days can be spent traveling internationally, and taking a charter boat (or plane) toward the Bahamas. Private charters can be arranged for you and your group to enjoy the 55-mile journey toward Bimini Island, Bahamas! Either stay at the Hilton Resort on Bimini, or continue your travels toward the Bahamian islands, and stay at the Four Seasons Resort. The Bahamas is the ultimate add-on to your Miami adventure, and can be arranged during your free consultation.
