The wide and fine, white sand-covered beaches are popular spots for fashion photo shoots, so you're sure to see models.

Blue and beautiful! Like being in tropical island! The water is blue and transparent, the sand is white and powdery. I love my beach!

Fun to walk and watch people. Good place to eat and party. Noisy but lots of fun to watch the crowd. Lots of places to eat and drink.

“Excellent Vacation!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 6, 2012

This past weekend was My 1st time visiting Miami as well as South Beach. I had a good time. I enjoyed the scenery from the hotels and South Beach. You can rent Bikes to cruise along the streets and see the shops or just walk along and enjoy the city.The Beach was wonderful, Blue waters and White Sands.
I will be back ASAP :)

What I liked about it was the white sands, the blue umbrellas,the amazing sea, and the dazzlingly blue sky. What more do you want?
