Welcome to Miami, folks—a city with just as much heartbeat as beachfront property.

First off: foodies, rejoice. This culturally dynamic seaside metropolis is home to a thriving Cuban and Latin America-inspired restaurant scene, rivaled only by its southern neighbors. Impress your palette with some local fare from Puerto Madero, Versailles Restaurant, or El Palacio De Los Jugos to start… nom!

Once you've eaten your fill of wooden pilón-plated Mofongo at Benny's Seafood (a Guy Fieri fave!) or grabbed some take-out Arepas from colorful La Latina (worth it!), stroll through Little Havana's vibrant explosion of Cuban-inspired cigar shops, art strolls, and outdoor cafés. Want a shortcut to true local immersion? Try your hand at some latin-inspired dancing at Salsa Mia. We can almost guarantee this'll inspire a grin or two, even if you—like us!—were born with two right feet.

Since a fun night out starts with knowing you have a safe home for a night in, it pays to know your area. We've done the heavy lifting for you, so be sure to check our geo-targeted crime stats and break-in info below.
