No need to cross the pond to the Continent or fly south to Latin America for an idyllic international escape. South Florida offers plenty of sunshine and sizzle, day and night, as well as a vibrant ethnic makeup to satisfy one’s desire for diversity and distraction from the ordinary; think the United Nations meets Global Fun Fest. Far from the American city norm, this dynamic metropolis is truly an exotic destination where English is fondly considered a second language and Cuban coffee outsells Starbucks.

The newly renovated Miami Marriott Biscayne Bay is a place transformed…the pulse of the bayfront and city center. It is your one-stop stellar gateway city hotel property where you will find extraordinary service, accommodations and easy access to everything Miami – South Florida’s epicenter of culture, fashion and cuisine.

It just doesn’t get any better in terms of location. This impressive 500+ room premier property is set in the heart of Miami’s entertainment district, directly on the bay with a bustling marina just outside its back door and spectacular water views from every corner.

 

With the Port of Miami nearby, the Miami Marriott Biscayne Bay is a top pick for a pre/post cruise vacation adventure. And, given Miami’s famous white beaches are within reach by car, taxi or bike… the Marriott Biscayne Bay is easy to love!

Activities abound with Miami’s top attractions less than a mile away. Enjoy a musical or play at the Adrienne Arsht Performing Arts Center, try a little salsa dancing with the locals during a weekend concert at Bayfront Park’s Amphitheatre, or catch the Miami Heat in action at the American Airlines Arena.

And…should you need a little nightlife?

Miami’s favorite adult beach playground, South Beach, is just a 10 minute drive or 25 minute bike ride over the Venetian Causeway bridge adjacent to the hotel. You are close enough to join the all-night party…but distant enough from the crowds and noise to relax and retire to the comfort of your hotel room, a peaceful and private paradise.

World-classing dining, shopping, fishing, boating and miles of sandy beaches are all part of Miami’s allure…but for visitors it is the hotel choice that can be an important critical factor…transforming a vacation from good to great!  The Miami Marriott Biscayne Bay sets the bar high… exceeding guest expectations on every level.

Warm summer breezes, sensational sunsets and colorful celebrations await you at this new- found South Florida oasis.
