During your Miami vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Miami Seaquarium
If you've been to Orlando's SeaWorld, you may be disappointed with Miami's version, which is considerably smaller and not as well maintained. It's hardly a sprawling seaquarium, but you will want to arrive early to enjoy the effects of its mild splash. You'll need at least 3 hours to tour the 35-acre oceanarium and see all four daily shows starring a number of showy ocean mammals. You can cut your visit to 2 hours if you limit your shows to the better, albeit corny, Flipper Show and Killer Whale Show. The highly regarded Water and Dolphin Exploration Program (WADE) allows visitors to touch and swim with dolphins in the Flipper Lagoon. The program costs $140 per person participating, $32 per observer, and is offered twice daily, at noon and 3:30pm, 7 days a week. Children must be at least 52 inches tall to participate. Reservations are necessary for this program. Call tel. 305/365-2501 in advance for reservations.
Bass Museum of Art
The Bass Museum of Art has expanded and received a dramatically new look, rendering it Miami's most progressive art museum. World-renowned Japanese architect Arata Isozaki designed the magnificent new facility, which has triple the former exhibition space, and added an outdoor sculpture terrace, a museum cafe and courtyard, and a museum shop, among other improvements. In addition to providing space in which to show the permanent collection, exhibitions of a scale and quality not previously seen in Miami will now be featured at the Bass. The museum's permanent collection includes European paintings from the 15th through the early 20th centuries with special emphasis on Northern European art of the Renaissance and baroque periods, including Dutch and Flemish masters such as Bol, Flinck, Rubens, and Jordaens. Past exhibitions have included the works of Picasso, Frida Kahlo, and Francois Marie Banier. The museum also has a lab, The New Information Workshop, making it possible for all aspiring artists to create their own masterpieces on computers for free or a nominal charge.
Fast Cats Ferry Service
Finally, a ferry that goes from Miami to Key West. It's about time. The PurrSeavearance may be a cheesy name for a luxury $7.5 million catamaran, but the trip is hardly so. The 102-foot boat can hold up to 149 passengers and will make the 4-hour cruise (driving only takes 3 hr., but with traffic it can take up to 5) four times a week starting at $69 each way. VIP tickets cost $98 and include preferential seating. Food and alcoholic beverages are available but not included in the price.
The Shore Club
What used to be a concrete canyon, a mod-version of the eerily deserted house in The Shining, is now the hottest and hautest stay in South Beach thanks to one thing in particular: Hip hotelier Ian Schrager rescued it from its first, floundering owner. That, not to mention Florida's first ever Nobu sushi restaurant and cocktail lounge (a major hit in New York, Las Vegas, Paris, and London), and a celebrity clientele that would fill up an entire issue of Us Weekly have made The Shore Club a sure thing. Because this hotel is infinitely more cavernous than its (not as) hipster neighbor, The Delano, publicity-shy celebs such as Janet Jackson and Denzel Washington have been known to call this place their home away from home. Then again, publicity hog Leonardo DiCaprio also had no qualms slumber partying with his posse here. Neither did Britney Spears, Beyonce Knowles, Jay-Z, and, well, you get the picture (and if you're lucky, you'll really get the picture and make a fortune from the tabloids, but beware of behemoth bodyguards). Stellar crowd aside, the hotel's interior still leaves a lot to be desired, especially amongst those who marvel in Shrager Hotels' signature-Starck-designed lobbies -- the lobby here is sorely lacking in personality. But that's all forgotten once you reach the centerpiece and focal point of the place -- the resplendent oasis of chic out back. A Miami outpost of L.A.'s celeb-laden SkyBar reigns supreme with a Marrakech-meets-Miami motif that stretches throughout the hotel's sprawling pool, patio, and garden areas. Beware of surly doormen if you're not a hotel guest. In March 2003, L.A.'s hottest Italian eatery, Ago (and its extremely pricey pasta), opened here with much fanfare and an appearance by co-owner Robert DeNiro, who hasn't been back since.The Shore Club also boasts that 80% of its 325 rooms have an ocean view. Contrary to the cold, cavernous lobby, exquisite gardens draw guests toward the beach through courtyards and reflecting pools. Rooms are loaded with state-of-the-art amenities, not to mention 400-thread-count linen bedding, Mexican sandstone flooring in the bathroom with custom-designed glass, and an enclosed "wet area" with bathtub, shower, and teak bench. (Molton Brown bathroom amenities are worth bringing an extra bag for.) If you can't afford the penthouse or a poolside cabana, consider an Ocean View room, which is stellar in its own right, with its massive, two-nozzled shower-tub combo that's almost better than a day at the beach. If you are wondering whether to choose the still somewhat hip mainstay, the Delano, over this hotel, consider that The Shore Club is much larger, newer, hungrier for the hipsters, and its rooms boast a bit more personality than the Delano's.
The Beach House Hotel
The Beach House Hotel is the closest thing the city has to a summer beach home -- comfortable, unpretentious, and luxurious, yet decidedly low-key. In place of an elaborate hotel lobby, the public spaces of the Beach House are divided into a series of intimate homey environments, from the wicker-furnished screened-in porch to the Asian-inspired Bamboo Room, with overstuffed Ralph Lauren leather couches and Japanese bric-a-brac. The 24-hour Pantry, inspired by Long Island's Sagaponack General Store, is packed with all the needs of the hotel's "unplugged" urban clientele.The ultraspacious rooms (those ending in 04 are the most spacious) are literally brimming with the comforts of home. The Seahorse Bar features a giant tank of -- you guessed it -- sea horses. The 200-foot private beach, hammock grove, and topiary garden are so lush, they're said to have caused several New York hipsters to renege on their summer shares in the Hamptons in favor of this Beach House.
Casa Tua
This outrageous boutique offers custom-tailored amenities (from toiletries to snacks) for each of its guests, who fill out a detailed profile when booking one of Casa Tua's five suites. Styled like a glorious Mediterranean beach house, Casa Tua also has a posh restaurant with an Italian-accented menu and a second-floor lounge for afternoon tea and evening cocktails. The hotel's management is very cagey as far as hotel details are concerned, expressing a deep concern for "keeping its clientele extremely exclusive" and, essentially, by word of mouth. Enough said, I suppose. Rather than fork over the money to stay here -- there's no pool anyway -- I do suggest that you absolutely splurge at Casa Tua, the restaurant, which happens to be one of South Beach's most exquisite.
