Granted it can be more expensive than some destinations however it can be done. Have a look below at some the ideas that will help you to have a budget-friendly girls weekend in the Miami sunshine.

Stay Away From A Central Location

Where you stay in Miami can be one of the main reasons it always seems very non-budget friendly. In fact, some people will spend as much on one hotel night as someone who is watching the pennies would spend on their entire weekend, especially if they’re staying near south-beach or Ocean Drive. A really good area to stay is the up and coming Brickell, it was known as the financial hub of Miami and it was said that it would shut down completely on an evening. That was until the young, trendy people started moving in and developing luxury, chic, high rise condos. Now it’s fast becoming the place to be seen, with very reasonable prices and beautiful hotels.
