Miami is one of those cities that never runs out of ways to dazzle you. From sun-drenched beaches to buzzing nightlife and world-class dining, a well-planned Miami itinerary ensures you experience the very best this vibrant city has to offer. Whether you're planning a weekend in Miami or stretching it to a full three days, here's how to make every moment count. 

Day 1: South Beach & the Art Deco District


Start your Miami travel itinerary where the magic is most concentrated:
South Beach. The iconic Art Deco Historic District sits just a 15-minute walk or a 5-minute rideshare from The March Hotel, making it an effortless first stop. Stroll Ocean Drive in the morning before the crowds arrive, admiring the pastel-colored buildings that put Miami on the design map.

From there, kick off your shoes and claim a spot on the white sand. Miami Beach's shoreline stretches for miles, but the stretch between 5th and 15th Streets delivers the quintessential Miami Beach itinerary experience with turquoise water, golden sand, and an electric atmosphere.

You can literally step outside The March Hotel and be on the beach in 5 minutes, or you can take a longer 30-minute stroll along the length of the beach to explore the various attractions, like Lummus Park and the Art Deco District. In the evening, head to Española Way for tapas and live music to close out a perfect opening day.

Day 2: Wynwood, Design District & Little Havana


Day two of your 3 days in Miami belongs to the city's creative soul. Wynwood Walls, located about an 18-minute rideshare from The March Hotel, is a must. This outdoor street art museum transforms a former warehouse district into one of the world's most photographed neighborhoods. Grab a coffee at one of the local roasters and take your time wandering the murals.

After lunch, drive or take a rideshare 10 minutes north to the Design District, where luxury boutiques and cutting-edge galleries line every block. Later, swing west to Little Havana, roughly a 20-minute rideshare from The March Hotel, where the smell of fresh Cuban coffee and the sound of salsa spilling onto Calle Ocho create an atmosphere unlike anywhere else in the country. Order a media noche sandwich and a cortadito, then stay for the sunset domino players at Maximo Gomez Park.

Day 3: Key Biscayne & Sunset Harbour


Save your third day for a change of pace.
Key Biscayne lies about a 27-minute rideshare from The March Hotel and rewards visitors with calm, crystal-clear waters at Crandon Park Beach, far quieter than South Beach and equally stunning. Rent a kayak, explore the coastal trails at Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, and climb the historic lighthouse for panoramic views of the Atlantic.

Back on the mainland, wrap up your Miami Beach itinerary with dinner in Sunset Harbour. This walkable neighborhood, sitting just a 15-minute walk from The March Hotel, is packed with chef-driven restaurants and rooftop bars that deliver the perfect final-night send-off.
