Miami is the perfect place to spend in the winter (or the summer) to ensure a healthy dose of Vitamin D. This colorful city, spread across various neighborhoods from inland to across the Bay, is the world's largest collection of Art Deco architecture. With over 15 million visitors to the city in 2016, Miami is one of the most desirable destinations in the country. It's surrounded by national parks, and for those who want to leave the city, you can hop onboard one of the many cruise ship options — it's the largest cruise ship port in the world. Bienvenido a Miami!

1. Vibrant Escape in the Heart of the City
Located in the historic Spring Garden neighborhood, this Airbnb offers a taste of Miami centrally located near the downtown area, and a quick drive across the causeway to Miami Beach.

It comes with a pool for all the residents and, when you want to wander out to the beach and beyond, it's only a short walk to the water and boardwalk. The New York Post calls Mid-Beach Miami's haute new spot, and if the number of museums, restaurants, bars and clubs is any indication, we believe them. Rates from $77 per night with three-night minimum stay required.

Rates from $150 per night with one-night minimum stay.
5. Modern Apartment near World-Famous Ocean Drive
You can't go to Miami's famed South Beach area without hitching a ride down Ocean Drive.

One evening of watching the sunsets from the balcony and you may never want to leave. You've been warned. Rates from $279 with the minimum stay varying per stay.
7. Live Like A Local in this 1920s Bungalow
This bungalow, which is nearly a century old, is located in the Wynwood neighborhood of Miami, a trendy area best known for its colorful murals and surrounding art galleries.

Maximize Your Purchase
There are plenty of ways to maximize your stay with points and miles. If you’ve never used Airbnb before, sign up through TPG to get $40 off your first booking — and the gravy train doesn’t stop there. Book through the Delta portal and earn 1 SkyMile for every dollar spent on your stay, and make sure to charge the purchase to a travel rewards card to rack up extra points. Using a card like the Chase Sapphire Preferred will get you 2x points on all travel purchases while the Chase Sapphire Reserve will get you 3x points on an Airbnb stay. When you combine the two, you’re effectively double-dipping with your points earning.
