It's not too late to bask in the sun down Florida way while your friends and relatives are still shoveling out of winter's snowstorms. And if you're a Frommers.com reader, there are special deals for you at two neat boutique hotels right in the heart of Miami's fashionable South Beach playground. Stay three nights and get the last night free, in fact.
The Crest Group Hotels there ask you to pay just $125 per room per night (that's 20% off rack rates), plus tax, for two nights, and then you get the third night free in a superior single or double room. The deals are for their Crest Hotel Suites and the South Beach Hotel.
The Crest Hotel Suites are located just a short walk from the jazzy ambiance of Lincoln Road, the latter with outdoor dining, shopping and entertainment possibilities. Also within walking distance are Ocean Drive and its night life, the Jackie Gleason Theater and the Miami Beach Convention Center (the latter just one and one-half blocks away). The Suites are located at 1670 James Avenue, phone 305/531-0321, Web site www.crestgrouphotels.com.
The group's second property is the South Beach Hotel, just across the street from the Bass Museum, and within walking distance (two blocks) of Lincoln Road. Other cultural venues nearby include the Miami Beach Botanical Garden, the Holocaust Memorial and the headquarters of the Miami City Ballet. The Convention Center is also just 1.5 blocks away. The Hotel is located at 236-21st Street, phone 305/531-3464, Web site www.crestgrouphotels.com.
Each room in either hotel features phones with voice-mail and data ports, executive workspace and all first-class modern conveniences.
The deal for Frommer's readers is good through October 31, 2003, and is subject to availability. (Not applicable during special events and/or on holidays.) For reservations and/or information, phone them at the numbers listed above.
