Book Miami hotels

A well-known sage and philosopher by the name of Will Smith once said of Miami in his famous folk song tribute, “Party in the city where the heat is on, all night on the beach ’til the break of dawn”. After a holiday here, you’ll know exactly what that’s like. Miami is a city made for sun, fun and singing along to the Fresh Prince as you lounge on the hot sand with an esky and umbrella. Hotels in Miami keep you near the action, so when you’ve finished a corker of a night, you won’t have to travel far to fall into bed.

Things to do in Miami

Famous ’round the world for its beaches and the beautiful people you can find there, you’ll want to hit the cunningly named Miami Beach to bronze up on your holiday. South Beach sits between the Atlantic and Biscayne Bay is recognisable for its distinctive Art Deco style buildings along scenic Ocean Drive. As home to the United States’ largest Cuban and Haitian populations, it’s no surprise that Miami is home to heaps of great Cuban and Haitian-Creole food. And thank goodness for that. Your Miami holidays aren’t complete without a trip to Little Havana for a taste of a well-made medianoche, a sandwich far removed from any standard cut lunch.

As implied by Sir William Smith’s lyrics above, Miami is indeed a ripper place to party. The nightclubs here are booming with music. Rock out to the latest radio hits or practice your mambo hips at tons of late night hotspots all over the city. When you want a break from all that tanning and dancing, check out an airboat tour of the Everglades. This tropical wetland is home to scores of native plant life and animals, like manatees, Key deer and the Florida panther. Take tons of photos, but remember this pro-tip: if you’re close enough for a selfie with an alligator or crocodile, you might be too close #LifeLessons. The concierge or front desk staff at your Miami accommodation can also help give you insight into the best places to grab a meal or spend some free time.

Getting to & Around Miami

After landing at Miami International Airport, you’ll be able to make your way out to the arrivals gate and catch a taxi or bus. Many Miami hotels have shuttle service to and from the airport, so it’s best to check beforehand. You can also look into car hire options—from lastminute.com.au, of course! Once you’re in the city, public transportation is extensive. Bus lines run all over the county, though a faster option might be the Metrorail. This rail system operates above ground, transporting travellers all through Miami and the surrounding communities.

Every time your book your accommodation in Miami through lastminute.com.au, it’s like the Internet is saying, “Welcome to Miami. Bienvenido a Miami.” We keep it easy with the option to pay now or later for your dream holiday here and at other Florida hotels.
