As
Rebecca is from Arizona and has family and friends across the US,
we stay mainly with friends and family when we are in the country,
but we will endeavour to stay at different hostels and hotels or
resorts in the future so we can provide more information here about
US accommodation.
FLORIDA
- MIAMI
The
majority of beach side Miami is accommodation. It ranges from $25
a night to thousands of dollars. There are so many places competing
for your dollar but that doesn't necessarily mean that you will get
a place easily. We went there in low season and we only just managed
to get beds for the four nights we were there. Hence, business is
good in Miami any time of the year, so book ahead to be safe. Backpacking?
Want to party? Go to 'The Creek' at Miami beach before it gets demolished
or The Tropics in the Art Deco area of South Beach. $$-$$$
