Miami Beach You Should Visit

The unique Art Deco District, which adorns the famous Miami Beach, Florida is a beloved destination for many art lovers, as well as tourists from all over the world. One square mile, between Ocean Drive and Collins Avenue, treasures more than 800 Art Deco buildings, all built in the time range of 1923-1933 characterized by geometric shapes, pastel colors and floral decoration.

Casa Casuarina

The exception of the area is once residence of the late Italian designer Gianni Versace, is now turned into a 5 star hotel. Perfectly located on Ocean Drive this Mediterranean-style mansion became the landmark of Miami. Many celebrities visited. To name a few, Madonna, Princess Diana and Elton John so, just like a celebrity you can experience sleeping in Gianni Versace’s bedroom!

The Colony Theatre

It was originally Paramount Pictures Movie House. Now it is a performing arts venue. There is also Colony Hotel and it is the most photographed hotel in the District. If you are looking for some great social media photos this seems to be the place. Being the symbol of South Beach, the Colony Hotel sets the standard for hospitality. All the rooms and suites have an Art Deco flair. It also offers a variety of dining and relaxation options.
