The
Carlton Hotel South
Beach is proud of its central location. With
easy access to all of the fun and attractions that Miami has to
offer, and within a stones throw of the Atlantic Ocean, many of
our guests often find themselves unprepared for the wide variety
of activities available to them. We have created this page to help
you be better prepared.
First, weather: Miami, Florida enjoys a nice tropical climate. Because
of this you should be prepared with light clothing for walking around
during the day and should think about clothes that breathe. The
Carlton Hotel South
Beach is within easy walking distance to some
of the areas greatest attractions, which means guests often walk.
This means being outside and comfort requires light clothing that
allow you to take advantage of the ocean breeze that glides over
the area. This also means comfortable shoes.
Second, formality: South Beach is a relatively laid back area. While
staying at the Carlton Hotel South
Beach, you don't need to be in a suit, other
than a bathing one. Proper attire is appreciated, but for Florida,
the definition of proper attire is much more casual than up north.
Slacks or nice shorts and a nice shirt is almost considered formal.
If you don't have proper attire for Florida, the shopping of Lincoln
Road and Washington Street can surely provide for your needs.
Third, nightlife: South Beach is famous for its nightlife. With
clubs of every ilk to provide an evening (to morning) entertainment,
the well-to-do come well-dressed to party. Again, shopping locally
may be your best option. Lincoln Road teems with shops to cater
to your every desire in style and fashion. South Beach has been
a fashion plate all its own for years. Come and immerse yourself
in the luxury.
Fourth, the sand: South Beach is named for the strand of golden
sand stretching along the oceanfront. If you want to head out onto
South Beach properly from the Carlton Hotel, bathing suits and a
simple shirt are a must. That being said, a whole new fashion trend
has developed from the bathing suits of the area. Again, there is
no better place than South Beach itself to find the latest and greatest
of these trends. Of course, being a trend-setter on the sand isn't
a requirement, just realize that your stay at the Carlton Hotel
South Beach can be, and our staff is available to help you enjoy
your stay with us.
