With a combination of beautiful white sand beaches, amazing restaurants, great year round weather and outstanding nightlife, Miami is an ideal location for bachelorette parties. There are almost too many options to choose from when making your itinerary. That’s why we’ve compiled this ultimate guide for a bachelorette party in Miami, including what time of year to visit, where to stay and what to do when you get there.
When to visit Miami for a Bachelorette Party
Miami's tropical climate is one of the reasons the Magic City has visitors year-round and you can get great weather in all 12 months of the year. However, if you want the best chance of warm sunny days that aren’t too hot for golf, we recommend planning your bachelor party in either the Winter or Spring. The Fall can also be very nice, but there is a chance of hurricanes.
Budget Tip: If you wanna save some money and plan on being inside a lot, the Summer is still a great time to visit and you will save huge amounts of money on airfare and lodging!
Where to Stay in Miami for a Bachelorette Party
Depending on the size of your group and budget, there are several different areas and types of lodging that would accommodate your bachelorette party in Miami.
South Beach
South Beach is renowned for its nightlife, restaurants, high-end shopping, and its shoreline. Considered the party district, you will most likely be spending a lot of time here whether you stay here or not. Depending on your budget, there are a lot of nice hotels and reasonably priced 2 - 4 bedroom condos. This is ideal for small bachelorette parties, but if you're with a group of 10+, we recommend finding a house with a pool!
Coconut Grove
Located on the Southern edge of the city, this lovely neighborhood has great Airbnb's that are only a short Uber away from Miami's popping nightlife. This makes it the best place for large bachelorette parties who want a luxurious basecamp to start and end their days at. Unfortunately, this won't come cheap!
North Beach
If you are looking for a more relaxing bachelor party away from the crowds you should definitely consider staying in North Beach! There are great authentic latin restaurants, though there are few bars and nightclubs. Luckily South Beach is very accessible through Collins Ave, especially if you book a Miami party bus! It's also home to a lot of the more reasonably priced Airbnbs.
Bachelorette Party Activities in Miami
Now that you’ve figured out when you’re going to visit and where you’re going to stay, it’s time to decide what to do during your stay in Miami!
Ride a Party Bus
Whether you’re staying outside of Miami Beach (Coconut Grove, North Beach, Brickell) and need transportation to South Beach or staying there and want to go to a different neighborhood, a party bus is always the most fun way to get from point A to B. This is especially true for bachelorette parties that are large in number and personality. We may be a little biased but there is no better Miami party bus than Double Black Transportation. Along with standard hourly rates, we also offer round-trip, half-day and full-day rates that allow time to be shuttled between the beach, shopping, dinner and the clubs without breaking the bank.
Visit a Winery
Did you think you had to be in Napa or France to visit a winery while on vacation? WRONG! Schnebly Winery is the Southernmost winery in the US and is a truly unique experience.
They offer private tastings, tours and have a great restaurant as well.
Find a Beach
There are technically over a dozen beaches in Miami and we could write a whole blog about them. Obviously South Beach is the most famous and broken into four parts: South Pointe Beach, South Beach, Mid Beach and North Beach. Surfside is great for a relaxed day with less crowds and you should definitely check out Haulover Dog Beach if you're bringing a four-legged friend.
Dine on Latin Specialties
Known as the Gateway to Latin America, it should come as no surprise that Miami has amazing Latin cuisine. It might come as more of a surprise that they also have world-class dining options for every other cuisine as well! Miami is a food hub and it would be foolish to not take advantage of all of the great restaurants. There are simply too many to list here but you gotta check out the original Joe's Stone Crab and Versailles for Cuban cuisine.
Dance at a Club
While there are many great nightlife options in Miami, E11even and Space are the two that define Miami's club scene. Unfortunately, tables at E11even have gotten insanely expensive so you'll want to make sure everyone in the group is willing to pitch some serious dough. Space is great for GA and is famous for their sunrise sets.
Book a Boat
Is there anything better than renting a boat for your bachelorette party? We’re not sure, especially not in Miami! You can ride along the coastline or go deep sea fishing for trophy fish. If you’re on a tighter budget but still want to get out on the water, we recommend the Miami Booze Cruise for $99.
See a Concert at an Arena
Miami hosts tons of concerts all year-long with some of the world's biggest acts. While tickets might not be super cheap, they're gonna be a lot less than a table at E11even. Some of our favorite venues are the Kaseya Center, the Fillmore, Klipsch Amphitheatre and Gramps.
Conclusion: Miami Bachelorette Party
Miami is one of the top destinations for bachelorette parties for a litany of reasons. Access to high-end public golf courses, water activities and an active nightlife to name a few. We believe the best chance to see all of these and more is to book a Miami party bus through Double Black.
