5. The Confidante Miami Beach

Located on bustling Collins Avenue, this hotel is just far enough from the crowds of South Beach, but not so far that you feel removed from the fun. Between the panoramic ocean views, a palm-lined outdoor lounge area, direct beach access, colorful cabanas, and two heated pools, it's not hard to find your happy place here.

Address: 4041 Collins Ave., Mid-Beach
