South Florida offers no end of great ways to unwind.\u00a0<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are just a few of the reasons a year-end Miami staycation could be just what the doctor ordered when it comes to relieving the stress of this trip around the sun.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beach Time<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s just something undeniably relaxing about sitting on a beach, sipping a cocktail, and soaking up some sunshine. Miami\u2019s fantastic oceanfront has no shortage of opportunities to dig your toes into the sand and let your stress slip away with the lapping of the waves. So book one of our beautiful beach Acquabeds, or a pool cabana on the Acqualina app (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/acqualina-resort\/id1463052013\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">iOS<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.acqualina.families&amp;hl=en_US\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Play<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), slather on some sunscreen, and let your tension melt away.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perfect Weather Any Time of Year<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any time is a great time to visit Miami, but what passes for \u201cwinter\u201d around here may be the best one. Even when snow and cold are driving most other areas of the country indoors to find solace in hot cocoa and warm socks, Miami is still enjoying the same eternal summer it has since time out of mind. So don\u2019t put your swimsuit away just yet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fantastic Foodie Culture<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everyone likes to eat. And there is perhaps no finer food culture anywhere in the country than right here in Miami. Our on-site eateries <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acqualinaresort.com\/dining\/costa-grill\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Costa Grill<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (plating gourmet Mediterranean in a beach-adjacent setting), the award-winning <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acqualinaresort.com\/dining\/il-mulino-new-york\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Il Mulino New York<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (serving world-class Italian cuisine) and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pastryisart.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pastry is Art<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 new at our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acqualinaresort.com\/dining\/the-marketplace\">Marketplace<\/a> \u2014 all offer our guests delicious dining options. Of course, Miami\u2019s considerable Cuban culture means that you\u2019ll always find outstanding <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ropa vieja, cucuruchos, <\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and (naturally) Cubano sandwiches nearby. And a recent influx of celebrity chefs to South Florida has also meant that fans of all manner of local, fusion, and international cuisines find their finest expressions here. And do we even need to mention the outstanding seafood? We\u2019re easily one of the best melting pots anywhere.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Shopping Paradise<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Miami\u2019s status as a nexus of culture means there\u2019s no better place to locate anything your heart desires and have it wrapped up in a tidy bow. Incredible fashion is obviously front and center, but it\u2019s far from the whole story. Toys, souvenirs, beachwear, incredible art \u2014 it\u2019s all here, and it\u2019s all amazing. We even offer our guests a world-class shopping experience right on-property at our own <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acqualinaresort.com\/spa\/acqualina-boutique\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Acqualina Boutique<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 featuring swimwear, designer fashions, and much more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soak Up Some Sun<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The science is in: Vitamin D is vital to your health and well-being. And sure, you can swallow supplements to get your daily recommended allowance. But we much prefer to take it in the old-fashioned way \u2014 by enjoying that famous Florida sunshine. By most estimates, Miami gets roughly 250 days of sunshine in an average calendar year. So if you\u2019ve been feeling listless, chances are there\u2019s a solar cure. And Miami is the best place to fill that particular prescription. Our trademark red beach loungers, lush waterfront lawns and vast stretch of white-sand beach are all great places to catch some rays.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Relax and Unwind<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pace of beach life in South Florida is just a bit more laid-back than other places. Simply being here is an amazing stress-reliever. Even so, it\u2019s never a bad idea to go the extra mile in taming that tension. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acqualinaresort.com\/spa\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our Acqualina Spa by ESPA<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> offers guests a full range of relaxation ranging from skin treatments, to detoxifying body wraps, to pampering massages guaranteed to melt away the anxiety.
