Planning a high-end getaway to Miami Beach? Whether you’re staying in a Fontainebleau penthouse or a premium MakVacation rental along Collins Avenue, packing smartly ensures you’ll enjoy the sunshine, nightlife, and style that define this iconic destination. Here’s how to pack with confidence, comfort, and class.
Chic Swimwear and Cover-Ups
You’ll be spending plenty of time by the pool or beach, so pack multiple swimsuits. Choose options that are fashionable but functional. Add a couple of lightweight cover-ups or kaftans—perfect for transitioning from the beach to the bar without missing a beat.
Upscale Resort Wear
In Miami, daytime fashion is casual but elevated. Think linen sets, flowy sundresses, polos, and crisp button-downs. Breathable fabrics keep you cool while maintaining a polished look for lunch dates, poolside lounging, or strolls through South Beach.
Evening Outfits for Fine Dining and Nightlife
Dinner in Miami often means dressing to impress. Bring sleek cocktail attire, tailored blazers, or designer dresses—especially if you plan to visit exclusive clubs, rooftop lounges, or upscale restaurants near your MakVacation rental.
Stylish Yet Comfortable Footwear
Pack comfortable sandals for daytime, elevated sneakers for exploring, and dress shoes or heels for night. Miami is walkable, but many high-end venues still expect stylish footwear.
Sun Protection Essentials
The Florida sun is strong. Bring a wide-brimmed hat, polarized sunglasses, and reef-safe sunscreen. Most MakVacation rentals provide beach towels, so you won’t need to pack your own.
Accessories That Add Style
Miami is the place to go bold. Pack statement jewelry, beach totes, or a lightweight scarf to elevate simple outfits. A compact clutch or crossbody bag is ideal for evenings out.
Wellness and Beauty Must-Haves
Bring your skincare essentials, plus hydrating facial mist and aloe gel in case of sun exposure. If you use beauty tools or hair products regularly, pack travel-friendly versions. Many of our luxury rentals come with spa-style bathrooms and great lighting for getting ready.
Optional Extras for Added Comfort
- A Bluetooth speaker for beach days or private balconies
- A refillable water bottle to stay hydrated
- Workout clothes if you plan to hit the gym or a local studio
