If you are heading to Miami for your final fling, you'll want to pack appropriately. Much of Miami's social life revolves around the beach and the pools so don't forget your bathing suit (and hat and sunscreen!). At night people get dressed up so pack those summer dresses and heels to be part of the fashion-forward crowd. And remember, the city gets hot year-round, so dress accordingly (but also bring a sweater for those night breezes from the ocean).

Where to Stay in Miami

Cramblett suggests South Beach as the ideal neighborhood to stay in because of its proximity to all the restaurants and bars and the ocean. There is no wrong choice between a hotel and an Airbnb. While a hotel will give you a more social vibe in the lobby and by the pool, the latter will give you more privacy as a group and a place to all congregate. "Miami offers a huge range of properties to choose from depending on the party's vibe and budget," she shares."There are high-class hotels, budget properties, suites offered by Airbnb, and villas that can be rented out for a weekend celebration."

Those seeking a memorable stay should look no further than one of the city's hotels. There are some fun ones with a lot of character. If you're operating with a higher budget Faena, a sexy hotel with bold art, is a great choice. Its in-house lounge Gitano is a jungle-filled oasis perfect for a large group.

Those on a budget can find a vibrant pool party scene at the W South Beach or the Nautilus by Arlo. Some hotels even have packages for bachelorette parties. At the Shelborne South Beach, for example, bachelorette parties that book the cabana package get premium vodka, tequila, whiskey or gin, a fruit plate, Pellegrino waters, and red bull.

If you don't have a lot of money to spend, but you still want to stay somewhere fancy, book your trip for July and August, which are the slower months in Miami.

Your weekend can be full of diverse activities if you want that. "Miami is a unique location due to the variance of things to do," offers Cramblett. "We have been able to accommodate groups who want a low-key wellness visit; groups who want to turn up and party all day and through the night; groups who wish for classy affairs; and others who want a mix of it all. From art tours to parties, beach time, spa treatments, fine dining, and male dancers, Miami has it all."

Daytime Activities in Miami

Miami is known for its nonstop party scene, and there are many options for groups who want to spend the weekend letting off steam. Many hotels in South Beach host pool parties on the weekends where DJs blast music and drinks are served as early (and as late) as you want them. Many bachelorette parties like to rent out a yacht where they can drink Champagne and rosé and go to beautiful spots to jump in the water.

Miami may be known for its parties, but it also has a robust wellness offering, says Cramblett. For example, the Standard Spa is a great place for groups of friends who want to unwind and relax in tropical gardens. The city has a lot of fun workout classes from pole dancing to rock climbing, too!

More adventurous groups can head to Biscayne National Park for a snorkeling trip or one of the city's many diving centers to go deep in the ocean. Those with an interest in art will love exploring Wynwood Walls, an urban graffiti art museum.

Nighttime Activities in Miami

At night, head to a nightclub where cocktails are served with sparklers. Don't forget to make reservations weeks (or months) in advance; this city gets busy!

How to Get Around Miami

There are several ways to get around Miami, with the easiest being by car. Ridesharing services such as Uber and Lyft are available in the city, as well as taxis. Public transportation is also available. Depending on where you are staying in South Beach, the ocean is just a quick walk away!
