Thanks to Hyatt Points we booked a fabulous stay at Dreams South Beach. I had only driven through South Beach once before. I was excited to get out and explore by foot. You can see how I booked this trip including flights, hotels, and cruise for $425 here.

Check-in was a breeze at Dream South Beach. After being given complimentary Prosescco. We were taken to our room in the tower next door by the bellhop. We threw our stuff in the room and headed out to see South Beach.

Our hotel was a short walk to the water.

We decided to grab a table at an outdoor eatery and people watch sipping cocktails and grabbing a bite to eat.

As we were sitting enjoying the beautiful weather, a fancy car pulled up beside me and a photographer came running over taking lots of pictures. I couldn’t believe it when Ice Cube was sitting right beside me in his fancy car.

We really enjoyed our dinner at Locust. It was a great place to people watch and we were able to take advantage of Happy Hour specials of $12 a drink. Living in Nashville I am used to high drink prices so $12 is a steal in my opinion for South Beach.

After dinner we headed back to our room and made plans to meet up for breakfast the next morning at 11th Stree Dinner. It had been recommended by a friend, and it did not disappoint.

Our waiter recommended the waffles and they were amazing. Everyone cleaned their plates at Breakfast. We went back to the hotel and finished packing before we headed to the Cruise port.

I will mention there is a great door area at the hotel if you have time between check out and check in for your cruise. I could have sat there all day.
