MIA Vacation Recommendation

Posted this because my girlfriend and I are planning a MIA (South Beach Area) trip end of July.

I needed some help/recommendations. I did some searching on my own on sites like expedia, travelocity, etc.. and found some hotel packages within our budget. Only thing is when I read reviews, some of them are horrible!!

I would like to request from anyone who can recommend a good package including a nice hotel to stay in. I am sure there are some who have been there and might be able to provide useful information.

I am coming to my cappersmall friends for help. Here are details below for our upcoming trip:

July 29 - Aug 3
Budget $700-750/person (hotel and flight)
Amenities: Pool, beachfront, South Beach area.



Thank you guys!!

can't speak about hotels, but if you want to have the best steak you've ever had in your entire life, then check out Prime One Twelve

Not cheap, but WELL worth the price. Oh, and there are tons of hot women wearing high heels, short skirts and low-cut tops

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

Floridians prefer their women tan and sweaty, not pale and pasty. Plus I never seem to be around these smelly people you talk about.

Thanks Bozzie. It is at least $128/night and that would be over our budget for hotel stay. That price does not include any airfare as well.

Looks nice and got some good reviews though.

If anyone can let me know if they stayed at the Royal Palm South Beach Resort and what how it was there, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks All
