Everglades National Park
While you’re in South Florida, don’t miss the Everglades, world renowned for its unique ecosystem and endangered wildlife. The Shark Valley entrance is about an hour’s drive due west of our resort. Kids love this place and the price is family-friendly at just $10 per car.

Miami Restaurants
You have to eat, but why choose the same old standards when Miami has so much more to offer? You can experience the diversity of the area by trying Caribbean or Latin American food or indulge yourself at one the city’s fine dining establishments. If you’re traveling with children, we offer appropriate suggestions, as well.

Miami Golf
Miami is a golfer’s paradise. Whether you are visiting on business or pleasure, let us help you find the golf experience that fits your schedule and style.

Miami Beaches
Florida is all about beaches and Miami Beach offers something for everyone. Our favorite white sand strand, Sunny Isles Beach, is right outside our door, but if you’d like to venture out, let us point you in the direction that’s right for you.

Miami Shopping
Shop ’til you drop in and around Miami. Stroll among the elegant shops of the Miracle Mile or stock up on school clothes at the Old Navy Outlet. Whatever your choice, we’ll advise you where to go and how to get there.

Miami Beach Watersports
Water, water everywhere and so many ways to enjoy it! Try snorkeling, scuba diving, jet skiing, sea kayaking or any other watersport you can imagine. We can help with all the arrangements.

Night Clubs in Miami
After the sun goes down, Miami, particularly South Beach, is nightlife central. So grab a bite, take a nap and get ready to party ’til dawn at our famous nightclubs. Ocean Drive after midnight is one of those Miami experiences everyone should try at least once.
