Miami Beach
The beach is the easy part.
Sand at the door, Art Deco about 5 miles south, Bal Harbour Shops about 3 miles north. A quiet base with the whole island in reach.
Daily Resort Fee: $32 + tax, charged per room, per night.
Location
What is actually near you.
MB Hotel sits on the ocean side of Collins Avenue in North Beach. The pool deck, rooftop, some rooms with balconies and Kalypso Beach give guests places to spend the day without leaving the property.
Everything the city is known for is still on the same barrier island. South Beach and the Art Deco District are a short drive south; Bal Harbour Shops are about 3 miles north, and Surfside is about 2 miles away; Wynwood and Little Havana are over the causeway on the mainland.
The practical version: you can spend a whole day without leaving the sand, or you can be on Ocean Drive, about 5.5 miles south, with a straight run down Collins Avenue. Most guests do some of both.

Why MB Hotel
A base, not a destination in itself.
You do not queue for the sand
The beach in front of this stretch of Collins is public, wide and rarely crowded compared with Lummus Park. The resort fee includes two beach chairs, one umbrella, pool loungers, towels and in-room coffee, so a beach day takes no planning at all.
Everything else is a short ride
The island is long and narrow, and Collins runs the length of it. South Beach, Bal Harbour and the causeways to the mainland are all straightforward drives from the door.
You come back to somewhere quiet
Days out in South Beach are better when the evening is not also South Beach. The pool deck and the rooftop are the part of the day people remember.

Wide public sand, quieter than the South Beach stretches. The resort fee includes two beach chairs, one umbrella, pool loungers, towels and in-room coffee.

One Day
A day, roughly.
Morning
Breakfast is not included in your room rate. A full American buffet is served 8:00 am to 11:00 am daily at our fifth-floor oceanfront rooftop lounge. Packages start at $23 plus taxes and gratuity. Breakfast is run by a third-party vendor. The resort fee includes two beach chairs, one umbrella, pool loungers, towels and in-room coffee.
Midday
Drive or ride south into the Art Deco District and walk Ocean Drive and Española Way while the light is hard — the pastel facades photograph better before the afternoon haze.
Afternoon
Lincoln Road for shopping and shade, or north to Bal Harbour if you would rather browse than crowd. Both are short drives from the property.
Evening
Back on Collins for dinner in the neighbourhood — Sazon Cuban Cuisine, Manolo Argentinian Restaurant or Cafe Prima Pasta, all nearby — or Kalypso Beach's terrace if the day has been long enough. Then the pool deck, once the monogram wall lights up.
