I don't know much about South Beach. Aren't there restaurants there too so you shouldn't need to Uber up? Marriott cards are 5/24 except perhaps the Business one? Otherwise, you can get SPG cards. All Marriott/SPG/Ritz cards now come with an annual free night. However, none of them are for high enough categories to cover this SR other than the signup nights on the Ritz card, although I don't think it's available for signups anymore.
Not really. Seventeen and some schwarma place, we hate both. The Frieze which we like a LOT more than serendipity.
So our trips consist of lincoln road shopping/hookah/bars at night and restaurants north of miami beach (like i said 26 soho and grill time) - we also like tasty which is in the middle. Other places we tried have underwhelmed us. There are still other places we need to try but they are all up town as well.
We have stayed at court yard marriot, four points and fontainebleau for 41st street, none of those were great experiences. W south beach was our favorite we did that i think twice but i don't accumulate SPG anymore (although maybe I should rethink that). We have been staying at hyatt centric south beach the past bunch of times - just came back from 5 nights there yesterday - which means we can walk to our lincoln road stuff but spend a lot on ubers going up to the restaurants we like.
Next time definitely going to target SRBH - looks gorgeous and it's closest to our fave places anyway.
Thanks for the tip on ritz.
I can't get SPG bonus anymore if i got in this lifetime correct? I guess my best bet is probably opening marriot cards not 5/24 for bonuses then spending on marriot. Maybe buying ritz sign up nights if anyone is selling and combining.
