If you’re looking for ultimate relaxation, Greater Miami & Miami Beach should be your destination. Book that flight to Miami now to spend your days lounging on a plush daybed poolside, perhaps in a private cabana, with attendants fetching chilled glasses of rosé. Maybe you’ll summon the energy to take a dip in the pool – or not.

Take your pick from one of Miami’s many lavish oceanfront resorts, where you can pair days by the pool with afternoons at the spa, evenings dining at celebrity chef-led restaurants and nights strolling among neon-hued Art Deco gems. Four Seasons Hotel at the Surf Club, Faena Hotel Miami Beach, 1 Hotel South Beach, Acqualina Resort & Residences on The Beach and The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach are all fine choices, and the list doesn’t end there. These resorts boast some of the most luxurious spas in Miami, where you can indulge in four-star pampering, and also offer personal shopping experiences and butler service.

Should you be so inclined, Miami is also a top destination for embarking on relaxing Caribbean cruises. The industry’s newest and largest ships call PortMiami home. Start your cruise vacation early or extend it by a few days with a stay in Miami. With extra time relaxing at the beach, you’ll return to the real world refreshed and rejuvenated.
