Welcome to AFAR Approved: a deep dive into the travel items that we’re totally obsessed with, never leave behind, and can’t stop telling our friends about.

Let’s face it: This is not the summer we’d hoped to have. Countless canceled trips, parties, events . . . we can’t go anywhere! We can’t do anything! What a downer! But it’s time to take what’s left of summer into our own hands.

I live on Long Island, about an hour from New York City, and I’m never more than 20 minutes from the shore. My typical summer followed a simple equation: towels, sunscreen, beach—every chance I could get. Though local beaches have been open (with restrictions) since Memorial Day, there are still complications brought on by COVID-19. Did you know Long Island beaches reach capacity (which has been cut in half) by roughly 9 a.m. every weekend day? And once you’re there, social distancing becomes a challenge. What do you do when someone’s football lands on your beach blanket ? Can you really make your kids keep a mask on? I’ve since discovered that the best way to spend a socially distant day on the water is to actually spend it on the water—you’ve got to get on a boat.

Luckily, there’s a website for that. With Boatsetter , an eight-year-old peer-to-peer boat rental platform based in South Florida, you can book a private boat—everything from fishing boats to sailboats to fully crewed yachts—for the day (or a half day, or even a full week). Think of it like Airbnb, but for boats. My Boatsetter experience was a two-hour sunset cruise, which left from Sag Harbor and meandered around the Peconic Bay (between Long Island’s forks) . Our ride? A 43-foot Azimut Atlantis—someone’s brand-new yacht—that was large enough to accommodate me and nine guests. My brother and his girlfriend came, as did my parents, and even my grandparents—it was their biggest day out since the pandemic started in March.

This large, fancy boat came with a fancy crew: Captain Kent was behind the wheel along with his first mate, Annika. Of course, my first thought was the same as yours— you’re not supposed to be socializing with Captain Kent! It’s coronavirus! Well, on a 43-foot boat there’s plenty of space for social distancing. Kent made it clear that when we were up near the helm, or walking through the cabin, we had to keep our masks on. We could remove our masks outdoors around the people we came with, as long as we were more than six feet from him and his crew. They kept their masks on the whole time, even as Kent entertained a running list of boat questions from my grandfather (an ex-cruise ship navigator).

We were encouraged to bring food and drinks onboard, with water and ice provided, which meant we brought a typical over-the-top antipasto platter—breads, meats, cheeses, olives, the whole thing—as well as our own wine and cocktails. Yes, we shared with Captain Kent (not the alcohol, of course). After cruising around for a little while, we anchored and were able to jump off the boat for a swim before heading slowly back to the marina.

After the boat ride I felt refreshed and, dare I say it, normal for the first time this summer. It was especially nice to be able to safely bring my grandparents; I know they have been suffering from cabin fever during the pandemic.

Boatsetter is available in 600+ locations worldwide with more than 6,000 vessels to choose from. Prices range from $200–$10,000. Our yacht was a $2,000 excursion—but the experience felt invaluable.

I make $19,800 a month in revenue from 'Airbnb for boats' in Miami. Here's how I built my business.

• Mylène Garot loved being on the water and wanted to start a boat-rental business in Miami. 
• Garot used her savings to purchase a boat and started renting it on Boatsetter, an Airbnb for boats.
• Impressed by the income potential, Garot scaled her fleet to five boats in two years. 

This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Mylène Garot, a 32-year-old business owner about renting out her boats. She is originally from France but now lives in Miami. It has been edited for length and clarity. Insider has verified Garot's Boatsetter income.

I have a master's degree in business development from a university in France. In 2015, I immigrated to the United States and settled in Florida. 

I got a job working for Aquajet Miami, a water-sports company. I started as an intern and worked my way up to become marketing director. It was a small five-person company and I helped secure some large accounts.

I was recruited by a Miami real-estate company in 2018 and worked there for two years.

In 2020, I was researching ways to make money. I was Googling platforms similar to Airbnb and found Boatsetter , where boat owners can list their boats for people to rent. 

My husband and I thought it could be a good income source. I had experience in water sports and wanted to start a boat-rental business. My husband was a boat captain and managed property — it seemed pretty perfect.  

In March 2020, I quit my job in real estate to set up our boat-rental company

I used my savings and purchased a Tahoe 1950 that cost $25,000. We listed on Boatsetter in May 2020 and got bookings within the first week.

To list on Boatsetter, you need a boat with commercial insurance of at least $1 million, which costs $350 a month. 

Boatsetter offers insurance underwritten by GEICO. Boat owners can expect to take home between 65% and 85% of the boat's listing price, depending on their coverage plan. Boatsetter deducts the remaining income for insurance costs.

Potential hosts then fill out all the required information, upload photos, decide if they'll offer a captain or let the renter drive, and create their rental calendar. We started renting our boats without a captain. 

Related stories

Miami was the hot place to be in In the summer of 2020 because of the more relaxed COVID-19 restrictions. Everyone wanted to use our boats. 

We bought a second boat in June 2020. Since this new boat, a Monterey M205, cost $40,000, we paid it off in installments after putting up a $5,500 down payment from our savings. We immediately listed it on Boatsetter. 

Boatsetter helped us pay off our boat and earn income

From June to October 2020, we had 101 bookings and made $45,000 in revenue. During this period, I worked 10-hour days, seven days a week, managing the bookings, overseeing the cleanup and refueling after rentals, and marketing our business. 

We rented our boats without a captain. We charged $150 to rent the boats for two hours and we sanitized and disinfected them after each use.

The revenue was growing, but a private renter, renting outside Boatsetter, damaged one of the boats in September 2020. 

They drove our boat into a shallow area and damaged the hull. We only noticed the next day when it began taking on water. 

It cost $5,500 to fix. We kept the customer's deposit of $1,000 but had to pay the rest out of pocket. 

We decided to start renting with a captain and increased our prices

Even before the September incident, we were often stressed about what guests were doing with our boats. We also spent a lot of time explaining how to operate a boat and what to watch out for on the water. 

Having captains relieved this stress and gave us back some of our time. Beginning in October 2020, we required renters to use our captains.

Renters pay a starting price of $350 for two hours, which includes the captain. This price increase didn't impact our bookings and we netted 30% after paying the captains and for gas. 

In February 2021, we bought a third boat for $79,000. We funded it through a private lender — a real-estate investor I'd met through work. The private lender loaned us the full $79,000. I paid off the loan he gave us within a year with profits from the boat rentals.

We had three boats in the fleet listed on Boatsetter and our private booking website . 

March is historically the best month for boat rentals in Miami because of spring break and the start of the high season in the city, and we were fully booked. 

We made $70,000 in revenue in March 2021 with 160 bookings.

We bought a fourth boat in cash from our Boatsetter bookings

During three months over the summer, our three boats brought in $188,000 in bookings. We purchased a fourth boat, a Monterey 275SY that cost $85,000, in July 2021 in cash. We then added a fifth boat, a Searay SDX 270, for $90,500 at the end of 2021. We made a $20,000 down payment from our savings and the profits from the other boats and financed the rest. 

In January 2022, we decided not to buy more boats because of talk of a recession and how that could affect boat rentals. Our revenue with five boats is close to $20,000 a month on average. 

Our team consists of five captains, two assistants, and me and my husband. Three of the captains are on our payroll, and two are contractors. We also use three other captains on an on-call basis. 

I handle the maintenance and marketing myself 

I maintain the boat lots for all the boats, stay in contact with repair people, and handle any emergencies. 

I market our business and answer inquiries on Boatsetter. I try to close deals, get people to book, and check the boats at the end of each day. I hire all our employees. I interact with guests and handle logistics such as putting gas in the boats. 

I work around 60 hours a week including weekends and often don't have time off. We have a nanny who lives with us and watches our daughter, so my husband and I can work on the businesses.

You can't be a people pleaser in the boat rental world

To do well on Boatsetters, don't try to be a people pleaser — be direct and make sure your guests follow the rules.

We've had difficult clients but we're always polite — we try not to be confrontational. People have been good about following our rules, but if they don't, they would be banned and reported to the authorities if necessary.

Boat maintenance costs around $40,000 a year for five boats, or around $600 a month. That includes bottom cleaning, bottom paint, the mechanic, electricity, all the fiberglass repair, and the seats. 

Our five boats listed on Boatsetters now make $19,800 a month on average. They are helping our family create financial independence.

Henry N. / Customer Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The day of my charter, I got there a little early as instructed, and was greeted by an extremely friendly captain and an immaculate yacht. When I tell you this was the nicest yacht I’ve ever been on, that is an understatement. Beautiful hardwood floor, state of the art sound system, and the best lighting on any yacht in the water; Yacht Maryam did not miss in any way! The stew was also super friendly and took care of all my needs as fast as they could. They offered us a personal chef as well, and he was absolutely incredible!!! 5 start meals being cooked while we were enjoying the Miami views, there’s just nothing like it.

had booked this yatch for my friend’s bachelorette and it was an unforgettable experience. Our captain was Michael Perez and stewardess was Cristina Ogas. From start to finish, everything was top-notch. The yacht itself was stunning—spacious, beautifully decorated, and equipped with all the amenities we could ask for. The crew was incredibly professional, friendly, and attentive, ensuring that we were well taken care of throughout the day. The panoramic views were breathtaking, and we especially enjoyed the open deck area for lounging and soaking up the sun. The onboard sound system was perfect for our playlist. Overall, this yacht provided the perfect backdrop for a memorable celebration. We highly recommend it for anyone looking to host a special event on the water. Thank you for making our bachelorette party so extraordinary!

We had an amazing experience with Nicole and Edwin! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The yacht was beautiful and the entire process was smooth. Nicole and Edwin were both incredibly friendly, accommodating, and made sure we had everything we needed for an unforgettable day on the water. Highly recommend their service and look forward to renting with them again!

My one-day yacht rental experience was nothing short of extraordinary! From start to finish, everything exceeded my expectations. Captain Nico and Ana went above and beyond. Firstly, the yacht itself was stunning. Immaculately clean and beautifully maintained, it provided the perfect backdrop for a luxurious day on the water. The crew was incredibly professional yet friendly, ensuring we felt comfortable and relaxed throughout the trip. They were knowledgeable about the area, pointing out interesting landmarks and offering fascinating insights into local history and culture. The itinerary was well-planned, allowing us to explore several picturesque spots along the coast. We had ample time for swimming in crystal-clear waters. Captain Nico skillfully navigated the waters, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable ride for everyone on board. The onboard amenities were top-notch. From the spacious sun deck where we soaked up the sun to the cozy lounge area where we enjoyed gourmet snacks and refreshing beverages, every detail was thoughtfully arranged to enhance our comfort and enjoyment. Overall, our day on the yacht was an unforgettable experience. Whether you're looking to celebrate a special occasion or simply indulge in a day of luxury and relaxation, I highly recommend booking a yacht rental with this company. They deliver an exceptional service that promises a day filled with adventure, relaxation, and unparalleled beauty on the water. I can't wait to book another excursion with them in the future!

I definitely had an unforgettable experience with my friends! Excellent service, the boat was very clean. If you want a plan either family or friends, if you want to disconnect a little from reality, I recommend this 100%. Boat in excellent condition, no doubt I will be back soon!

50' Meridian Yacht with Best Sound System

Carmel was the best host. We book the boat 3 hours before and she was so accommodating. Communication was crystal clear, she set up our charcuterie board and made sure we had beverages. The ride was smooth and very scenic and she had a lot of great information about the area. I will def book again!

Andres was extremely communicative to answer all my questions and the crew Nicole and Edwin were amazing. They reached out to coordinate the departure earlier looking at some potentially bad weather in the afternoon and Nicole went the extra mile to pick up our catering for us to help us accommodate that adjustment and make it on time. Our cups were never empty and I was confident they had everything handled. Highly recommended them.

Boat rental prices in Miami vary significantly. You can find great deals on smaller boats for as cheap as $50/hour. Fancy yacht charters can cost up to several thousand for a day of cruising with a captain and crew.

Check out Coconut Grove or Pace Picnic Island by boat rental in Miami. Explore Miami Beach and so much more on the water.

Boat license rules in Florida and Miami depend on your age. If you were born after 1988 you will need to complete a boat safety education course and receive a safety identification card.

Boating season in Miami is year-round - warm temperatures and lots of sunshine makes it possible to rent a boat at virtually any time of year. Hurricane season runs from June to November, but unless you see a hurricane in the forecast, chances are that it’s still a good time to rent a boat.

The best time to visit Miami is during one of the big events in Miami like Art Basel, Ultra, Art Deco Weekend, Jazz Festivals, and more. You can go for the event and feel the excitement of the crowds, rent a boat and enjoy the Miami lifestyle.

The water temperature in Miami is always in the 70s, with the low being around 71°F and the high (typically in July) around 79°F.

To rent a boat in Miami (Florida) you must be 18 years of age and have completed a boater safety education course. If you have a boating license from another state, this can apply to the requirements to rent a boat here.

Miami has many different types of boats to rent. Everything from pontoons to luxury motor yachts, sailing catamarans, fishing boats, and jet skis are available to rent for enjoying Miami on the water.

While Airbnb has a few boats or yachts that you can sleep in overnight at marinas in Miami, they do not allow you to go out on the boat. Getmyboat specializes in top-quality boat rentals and yacht charters in Miami that allow you to leave the dock and experience the water.

Boats listed on Getmyboat offer boat rentals with or without a captain. You can always communicate with the boat owner through Getmyboat before confirming your booking to ensure your captain and crew needs are met.

Boat and yacht rentals are a great idea for hosting a bachelorette party while in Miami. Spending the day on the water celebrating the bride-to-be guarantees it will be a party she will never forget. Get your favorite ladies together and organize a final “sail before the veil” party with a private yacht or boat charter for a bachelorette. Many Captains offer special packages for bachelorette parties, so be sure to mention the occasion when booking. Check out our Bachelorette Boat Party Guide for everything you need to know about throwing a bachelorette boat party in Miami!

Most boats will have a sound system with either an AUX connection or Bluetooth connection which will allow you to play your own music. It is always best to check with the captain on the specifics prior to booking.

Many boat rentals and charters include the use of floating toys like lily pads, inflatable unicorns, and other items that are perfect for a swimming stop to relax in the water. If you’re hoping to have a float day in addition to your boat day, check the boat listing’s description and ask the boat captain or owner if they have floating toys that are included before confirming your booking.

15 of the Best Airbnbs in Miami Beach: My Top Picks

You can’t go to Miami without going to the beach. After all, why would you want to miss that part of your trip, anyway? The nightlife is unrivalled anywhere in the US, and you can spend your days chilling out on the sand or swimming in the warm waters. That is, if you’re not admiring the finest collection of art deco buildings in the world.

But what choice to you have when it comes to where to stay in Miami Beach? Hotels can be eye-wateringly expensive and the cheapest rooms in hostels will see you sharing with multiple others in your dorm. However, all is not lost. Take a look at Airbnb rentals in Miami instead!

That’s where we come in. We’ve put together a list of the best Airbnbs in Miami Beach, with your budget and travel style in mind. Not only that, but we’ve also included five of our favourite Airbnb Experiences in Miami. Let’s check them out!

When it comes to Airbnbs in Miami Beach, you’ve got a lot to choose from. As with anywhere you search on Airbnb, a range of unique and unusual properties will appear before your eyes. In general, if you’re backpacking the USA on a budget , you might want to take a private room in a shared home, which will leave you with plenty of cash to enjoy the nightlife.

However, for the full experience of living like a local in Miami Beach, you may want to try a full apartment in a condo instead – that or a beach house. If money really is no object, you may instead look at a South Beach Mansion or a yacht. These are best split if you’re travelling in a big group.

If you take hostels out of the equation, a condo is an entry-level property in Miami Beach. Keeping costs as low as possible? Then it’s best just to go for a private room in a condo. This would suit a solo traveller, budget backpacker, or perhaps a digital nomad – as long as the internet is reliable, of course.

In some places, a beach house might just be a shack on the sand where you can get changed before running to the sea. Not in Miami. Beach houses here can be anything from a cosy and quiet bungalow with sea views to an enormous South Beach Mansion. In my opinion, they’re the best type of Florida Airbnb .

Our third kind of unique accommodation on offer in Miami is a yacht . Now, this isn’t something that budget travellers will be able to look at, unfortunately – more likely Instagram influencers or big groups who can split the cost multiple ways. Or premier league footballers!

So, now we’re ready for the part that you’ve all been waiting for. Here are the 15 best Airbnbs in Miami Beach. We’ve arranged them by category, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find something that’ll suit your budget and style. Let’s go!

Cozy Private Room in South Beach | Overall Best Value Airbnb in Miami Beach

Just one block away from the beach, you’ll find this great value Airbnb. You’ve got your own private bathroom with complimentary sunblock and towels. You can use the home’s kitchen should you need to. If you can’t be bothered to walk that whole block to the beach, take a dip and cool off in the pool.

Private Room Close to Ocean Drive | Best Budget Airbnb in Miami Beach

It can be very, very difficult to find somewhere affordable in Miami Beach if you’re not keen on staying at a hostel. However, it’s not impossible – as proven by this lovely budget-friendly room in a condo. And you still get value for money: as well as a queen bed, you can enjoy Wi-Fi and air conditioning. There’s no kitchen and living room, but you can use the fridge and freezer in the living room if you want to store cold food and drinks.

We’ve tested countless backpacks over the years, but there’s one that has always been the best and remains the best buy for adventurers: the broke backpacker-approved Osprey Aether and Ariel series.

Want more deetz on why these packs are so  damn perfect? Then read our comprehensive review for the inside scoop!

Maiora Yacht | Over the Top Luxury Airbnb in Miami Beach

Now, this isn’t the only yacht we’ve got on this list, but it certainly is the most extravagant. It’s over a hundred feet long! Prices are almost into five figures, so it’s not something you can just book without careful consideration. However, if you’re thinking about it, it’s only right that you know you’ll get a full yacht crew included – as well as an extra jet ski, floating mat, and pool noodles for when you’re out at sea!

Boutique Hotel Room near Beach | Perfect Miami Beach Airbnb for Solo Travellers

For solo travellers, it can be tempting to just search for the cheapest or most popular hostel in Miami Beach and book without thinking. However, that isn’t always the best route to take. If you’re willing to expand your search and budget, you can find a great property like this boutique hotel, where you’ll have a complimentary breakfast thrown in. Thanks to the laptop-friendly workspace, this is a good shout for digital nomads, too.

Bright Sunny Room in Art Deco Home | Perfect Short Term Airbnb in Miami Beach for Digital Nomads

With a laptop-friendly workspace and rapid Wi-Fi, this Miami Beach Airbnb has exactly what you need if you’re a digital nomad. However, that’s not all. You’ve also got a big and fluffy double bed just a stone’s throw from all the bars and cafes that Mid Beach has to offer. And like everywhere in Miami Beach, you’re never far from a stretch of sand!

Stash your cash safely with this money belt. It will keep your valuables safely concealed, no matter where you go.

It looks exactly like a normal belt  except for a SECRET interior pocket perfectly designed to hide a wad of cash, a passport photocopy or anything else you may wish to hide. Never get caught with your pants down again! (Unless you want to…)

Here are a few more of my favorite Airbnbs in Miami Beach!

Casa Luna | Best Short Term Rental for Couples

Searching for a romantic Airbnb in Miami Beach? Look no further than Casa Luna, which boasts a big fluffy queen bed just a block from the beach! It’s in a 1950’s art-deco building, meaning you get to experience one of Miami’s attractions from the inside. Your hosts have left some lovely touches, including beach towels, a beach bag, and a large beach umbrella that you’re welcome to use.

Dog Friendly Coastal Condo | Best Airbnb in Miami Beach for Families

For some families, it’s not a real holiday unless their fluff ball can come along with them. So, check out this pet-friendly accommodation on South Beach. Not only will it welcome your dog, but there’s space for up to five guests – perfect for families! There are shared laundry facilities where you can wash clothes, and on-street parking is available at your own expense.

Mid-Century Modern Gem | Best Condo in Miami Beach

This South Beach condo is set around an oval-shaped swimming pool, which is a great start. It’s one of 26 condos in the property, and you’ll get a free parking space – great news if you’re travelling with your own or a rented vehicle. Once in the condo itself, you’ll be bowled over by the stunning teak flooring and tasteful artwork that decorates the place. A memory foam queen bed awaits you in the evening!

Entire House Miami Beach | Best Beach House in Miami Beach

Here’s a beach house that isn’t too expensive yet still has enough luxuries to whip up a bit of excitement. With room for eight guests, there are some stunning places to chill out. The backyard oasis has a huge seating and lounging area, and on the very few days that the weather isn’t good in Miami Beach, you can head inside and catch some sports or a movie on the 82 inch TV. That’s right – 82 inches!

Princess Luxury Yacht | Best Boat in Miami Beach

It might be cheaper than the yacht you’ve already seen, but this boat is still going to set you back a fair bit. But you’re paying for more than just the boat! You’ll have a full crew with you – that means a captain and a stewardess – and you set the course. You’ll be waited on hand and foot while your captain takes you off the beaten track and away from the noise and bright lights of the city for some well-deserved relaxation.

Charming Condo on Washington Ave | Best Airbnb in Miami Beach for Nightlife

Within walking distance of Ocean Drive, you’re right in the heart of South Beach and all the nightlife it has to offer. There’s space for four guests, so it would suit a small group of friends who have come to party! If you’re feeling a bit tender the following day, make the most of the fully equipped kitchen and rustle up something to soak up your hangover. Then, chill in the living room with a movie.

South Beach with Parking | Best Airbnb for a Weekend in Miami Beach

With many of Miami Beach’s top non-beach attractions within walking distance, such as the Lincoln Road Mall and Holocaust Memorial, this is a great place to enjoy a weekend trip. The fact that there’s free parking here means that if you want to head out of Miami’s city limits and explore what else Florida has to offer, you can do so knowing your car is safe when you’re on site.

Amazing Apartment in Heart of SOBE | Best Airbnb with Parking in Miami Beach

It can be tricky to find apartments with parking in Miami Beach, especially where you don’t have to pay. So, it’s always a relief when you do. However, this place offers way more than a place to secure your car! With room for four guests, it would suit a small group of friends or family. You have a view of the beach from your apartment, and it’s close to all of the action.

Villa Espanola | Best Airbnb for Throwing a Party in Miami Beach

Rent this entire villa, and you’ll enter with a champagne welcome. Yes, that’s right; four bottles of chilled champagne are ready and waiting for the arrival of you and up to 15 other guests. Head to the outdoor patio to continue the party! This place is perfect if you’re in Miami for a bachelor(ette) party or a birthday. And in the morning, you’ll get a breakfast to soak up all that alcohol from the night before.

Ocean Front Studio | Best Airbnb in Miami Beach for a Group of Friends

This studio flat provides visitors with an absolute dream feature – direct access to the beach. Yep, when you look down from the balcony, there’s just one road between you and the soft white sands and turquoise waters of the Atlantic Ocean! The complex also has a swimming pool, restaurant, and pub – so you can spend your entire trip within a few hundred metres of the condo.

Pants, socks, underwear, soap?! Take it from me, packing for an Airbnb stay is not always quite as straightforward as it seems. Working out what to bring and what to leave at home is an art I have perfected over many years.

Snoring dorm-mates can ruin your nights rest and seriously damage the hostel experience. This is why I always travel with a pack of decent ear plugs.

Hanging Laundry Bag

Trust us, this is an absolute game changer. Super compact, a hanging mesh laundry bag stops your dirty clothes from stinking, you don’t know how much you need one of these… so just get it, thank us later.

Sea To Summit Micro Towel

Hostel towels are scummy and take forever to dry. Microfibre towels dry quickly, are compact, lightweight, and can be used as a blanket or yoga mat if need be.

Monopoly Deal

Forget about Poker! Monopoly Deal is the single best travel card game that we have ever played. Works with 2-5 players and guarantees happy days.

Grayl Geopress Water Bottle

Always travel with a water bottle! They save you money and reduce your plastic footprint on our planet. The Grayl Geopress acts as a purifier AND temperature regulator. Boom!

Don’t Forget Your Miami Beach Travel Insurance

ALWAYS sort out your backpacker insurance before your trip. There’s plenty to choose from in that department, but a good place to start is Safety Wing .

They offer month-to-month payments, no lock-in contracts, and require absolutely no itineraries: that’s the exact kind of insurance long-term travellers and digital nomads need.

SafetyWing is cheap, easy, and admin-free: just sign up lickety-split so you can get back to it!

Your guide to Miami

All about miami.

The beauty of Miami comes from its mix of cultures, especially highlighted in each of its neighborhoods. Coconut Grove was originally settled by Bahamians a century ago and has that laid-back attitude with a bohemian touch, while Little Havana, which was carved out by Cuban exiles during the 1960s, is the heart of the city’s Hispanic culture. Don’t miss Calle Ocho (Eighth Street), with its ventanitas, walk-up windows next to restaurants that serve up coffee, pastries, and croquetas. Little Haiti was settled in the 1980s by Haitian refugees and now has Creole-influenced restaurants and museums; Allapattah (also known as Little Santo Domingo) offers a taste of the Dominican Republic; and Liberty City dates back to the 1930s Black migration and is home to the African Heritage Cultural Arts Center. In the center, there’s Downtown Miami, a juxtaposition of old and new, while neighboring Brickell is lined with modern skyscrapers.

The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Miami

There’s no denying the Miami heat. While midsummer temperatures may not sound that high in the mid-70s to high 80s Fahrenheit, the tropical climate makes it feel humid and muggy. Springtime and autumnal may be more pleasant times to stay in one of Miami’s vacation rentals, with temperatures averaging in the 70s. But even a winter trip to Miami will likely feel like a warm-up, with lows around 60 and highs in the mid-70s. Along with the sunny days comes the rain, with the Atlantic hurricane season starting in June and going through November. The highest rainfall usually comes in June but remains high in August and September.

Top things to do in Miami

Miami beach.

Miami Beach is a separate city from Miami, and the former lends additional cultural vibrancy to the latter. After all, the South Beach neighborhood is home to the Art Deco architecture, high-end dining, and beach culture the Magic City is known for. The best way to get to know Miami Beach is to just start walking along Ocean Drive, where you’ll hit oceanfront coffee shops, boutiques, and bars — and many fascinating characters.

Pérez Art Museum Miami

The international art museum isn’t just about its works, it’s also about the community, showcasing pieces from the 20th and 21st century from the diverse artists that have made their mark on the Miami scene.

This former warehouse district has transformed into the epicenter of Miami's art scene, thanks to the influence of graffiti and street artists. Sure, there are 70 galleries and museums here, but the neighborhood itself is an open-air street art museum with its constantly evolving large-scale murals.

Your guide to Miami Beach

Welcome to miami beach.

Home to the most famous Art Deco architectural district in the world and a thriving LGBTQ community, Miami Beach is as colourful and stylish as it gets. During the day, the 1940s facades that dominate the skyline pop almost cartoonishly against the blue Floridian sky. At night, their smooth curved lines light up with neon, the perfect backdrop to the city’s long nights.

The South Beach boardwalk and Ocean Drive are famous for their joggers and posers, while Lincoln Road (once called the Fifth Avenue of the South) is an ideal people-watching spot. But the beaches and neighbourhoods become quieter and less exhibitionist the further north you venture, from the relaxed hangouts of North Beach and its increasingly popular Ocean Terrace to the tiny local community of Surfside.

The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Miami Beach

If you’re looking for pleasant temperatures, then spring — between March and May — is an excellent time to visit, when it’s always warm but never too hot. Summer can be humid, and includes the perennial threat of hurricanes. Visitors flock here in the winter to escape the cold, prompting many major events, including the world-renowned five-day art fair Art Basel Miami Beach, in December. The International Boat Show in February offers the spectacular sight of 1,400 vessels lining the glittering bay. The South Beach Food and Wine Festival (February), the Winter Party Festival (March), and the World Polo League (April) are other notable draws.

Top things to do in Miami Beach

Española way.

With its pavement cafes and rustic villas, this pedestrianized side street, tucked away from the bustle of South Beach’s major thoroughfares, has the feel of an antique Spanish village. Look closer, and the architecture sports a wide range of influences — Moroccan, Italian, French — as do the restaurants that have made it so popular. From trattorias to tapas bars, Brazilian steakhouses to izakaya restaurants — you could eat out on this block every day and never get bored.

1111 Lincoln Road

Meet the coolest parking garage in the world. Designed by renowned Swiss architects, the open-ended multi-storey structure looks a little like an accordion in the process of being squeezed. Even if you don’t have a car of your own, you’ll want to pause and gawp on your way up Lincoln Road’s famous stretch of shops. Note: It looks even better lit up at night.

North Beach Bandshell

Hosting open-air performances from folk to classical, jazz to rock, this 1961 amphitheater in North Beach is a venue of which the local community is rightly proud. A piece of mid-century modern perfection, it has been recently updated with a swooping canopy, and is a wonderfully romantic place to get in some dancing under the open sky.

This $5.5m floating mansion in miami is not your average houseboat.

Americans everywhere are asking if they can use their $1,400 stimulus checks to rent half a night in this Miami floating mansion.

The $5.5 million buoyant abode was available to rent for $2,500 per night on Airbnb-like site Vrbo as of yesterday, but apparently, the demand was overwhelming. The listing appears to have been taken down this morning.

This four-bedroom, four-and-a-half bathroom mansion currently floats off the coast of Miami’s Palm Island and spans 2,700 square feet, plus more than 1,500 square feet of terraces, according to the manufacturer website .

To buy this 75-foot-long luxury home, which was originally listed for $5.9 million , you’ll need a driver’s license, boating safety certification and a driver’s license — or you could just hire a qualified captain, which is how rental guests enjoy the floating mansion.

A few boat-rental sites still hold the listing, charging from $3,000 to $6,000 per day , but it is unclear if the listings are affiliated with the boat’s owners.

@jasonmatouk Miami’s Floating Mansion! Available to rent ($2,500/Night) or buy! ($5,500,000) #luxury #realestate #miami ♬ Laugh Now Cry Later (Chopped & Screwed) – DJYung$avage & Drake

The 2,300-square-foot roof is covered in solar panels and rain collectors, making the yacht completely self-sustaining with energy and purified rainwater, according to the manufacturer’s website.

And don’t worry. The houseboat can weather Category 4 or 5 hurricanes, according to TopTenRealEstateDeals.com .

It anchors by using leg-like structures to stand on the bottom of the bay, most recently off Palm Island, which some local residents said detracts from its appeal as an environmentally friendly vessel .

The exterior is sleek white with trendy wood paneling and expansive walls of windows which can open up for seamless indoor-outdoor living, TikTok user and Florida real estate broker Jason Matouk showed in his video walkthrough tour.

The retractable first-floor outdoor patio has a summer kitchen with a grill, an outdoor shower and a platform that lowers directly into the water, so guests can get out and swim or board another boat, Matouk’s tour shows.

The first floor is an open-concept living room, dining room and kitchen with floor-to-ceiling windows facing a large patio.

The living room is staged with white Brazilian furniture and a large television, although it will be sold unfurnished, according to an Architectural Digest tour .

The dining room features a modern swirling light fixture and a circular table.

The glossy, white kitchen has a massive island with a built-in stovetop and an adjustable-height hood. The cabinets seamlessly integrate with a built-in Miele wine fridge, dishwasher, vegetable steamer, coffee maker and oven.

The captain’s quarters on the first floor have a Murphy bed and a stone bathroom with a rain shower head. The room opens onto the boat’s navigation system, which is connected to smart technology throughout the house.

Upstairs, the owner’s suite has floor-to-ceiling windows, a Jacuzzi, a private terrace and a bathroom with double rain shower heads and dual vanities.

The other bedrooms — including a VIP suite that matches the owner’s suite — also have floor-to-ceiling windows and luxurious finishes.
