Brickell City Centre was an unexpected stop that wasn't originally part of my plans. I was actually…read moreon my way to Bayside when my Uber driver suggested I check out Brickell instead. I'm so glad I took the recommendation. First and foremost, downtown Miami is nothing like it was over 10 years ago. The transformation is incredible. The skyline is filled with stunning high-rise buildings, beautiful hotels, clean streets, and the entire area feels modern, upscale, and safe. It's immaculate and a completely different vibe from South Beach. After visiting, I can honestly say my next trip to Miami will likely be centered around Brickell instead. As for Brickell City Centre itself, it's an impressive, world-class shopping destination. The mall is beautifully designed, spotless, and home to just about every luxury and popular retail brand you can think of. The selection of shops and restaurants is excellent. Most of the dining options are located on the upper level, although you'll find additional restaurants scattered throughout the mall. The open-air design, connected by escalators, makes it easy to navigate, and there's even a movie theater on the top floor. The center is divided into the East and North Blocks, which are well connected. My only complaint was getting an Uber after my visit. Finding the mall was easy, but getting picked up was another story. I waited over 15 minutes because the app repeatedly directed my driver to a different pickup location. I was standing outside the East Block near the Nespresso boutique, yet my driver kept being routed toward the North Block near Bally. If you're planning to use Uber or Lyft, allow yourself some extra time and double-check the designated pickup location before requesting your ride. Other than that minor inconvenience, Brickell City Centre exceeded my expectations and was one of the highlights of my trip to Miami.

There's a wide range of stores catering to different budgets--from typical mall stores to high-end luxury shops. The center offers a good mix of shopping including clothing stores and beauty retailers. I am not sure about the restaurants and cafes, since I have not explored the whole mall. I did see a restaurant, Starbucks, and a boba shop that I visited. I visited several stores during my trip, and overall, the service was friendly and welcoming. Dior stood out in particular, as the staff were attentive, offered samples, and created a more engaging shopping experience. The other stores I visited were also pleasant and accommodating. Overall, it's a cool place to walk around, shop, and hangout for a day.

Just don't go with the first person selling tickets since there are plenty of options to choose from. The views are beautiful cruising through Biscayne Bay past Hibiscus Island, Star Island, and even Al Capone's old mansion. You can grab a drink on board and just relax and enjoy the ride. There are also a bunch of restaurants, shops, and little spots to grab souvenirs like keychains, T-shirts, and bags, which is perfect if you're visiting. Just keep in mind parking can get pricey, starting around $7 an hour. Street parking is cheaper (about $5), but it can be a bit confusing.

The parking garages charges a fee depending on the amount of hours. Wait, you got to pay to park while spending money at the marketplace? That makes sense. The places my daughter and I went to were Crocs, Margaritaville, and It's Sugar. We saw the Sky View Wheel while we were eating dinner and it looked pretty cool. There was a lot of people when we went on a Saturday night in the main areas of the marketplace. However, I still can't get over that it cost something to park in the Bayside garages since they figure all the other parking garages charges a fee as well.

Most of the cashiers are pretty friendly as well.

If you love the thrill of bargain hunting--rummaging through endless shelves, digging through racks, and searching for that one hidden gem--you may absolutely love it here. There *are* some cool finds, and the prices are pretty reasonable, especially in this economy. But the store itself? **Cluttered, messy, and not particularly clean.** I barely saw anyone working there. The one employee I did encounter was pushing an oversized cart straight down the aisle toward me, with basically nowhere for me to go. I literally had to jump out of the way. She tossed out a "sorry" without slowing down or stopping. It was almost comical...except it was also pretty rude. They had some fall/holiday décor and the usual assortment of random Marshalls finds. Nothing to run home and tell your mama about, but if you're willing to dig, you'll probably find something at a decent price. And considering I passed gas near the airport at **$5.99 a gallon**--and still saw $3.99 about a mile away--I can appreciate anywhere that still offers some everyday bargains. I understand why people shop here. **The prices work. The treasure hunt is real. But so is the chaos.** I left with my kitchen towels and absolutely nothing else. Maybe I'll try again early on a Sunday when nobody's around. Until then, **2 stars**. Based on what I saw today, unfortunately, this felt less like an off day and more like the normal experience at this location.

Lincoln Road isn't just a street--it's Miami's catwalk, circus, and living time capsule rolled into…read moreone. I've been coming here since the days when Howard Austin Feld had his shop here, when you could still park on the street and the crowd felt more local than curated. Back then, it was quirky galleries, mom-and-pop shops, and artists setting up easels by the fountains. History matters here. Originally designed in the 1910s by Carl Fisher (the same guy who basically invented Miami Beach), it was later reimagined in the 1950s by Morris Lapidus, the legendary architect behind the Fontainebleau. He turned Lincoln Road into a pedestrian mall--a radical idea at the time--that gave Miami Beach its own open-air Broadway. For decades, it was where retirees fed pigeons, musicians played for tips, and snowbirds people-watched under the palms. Today? It's glossier. Trendy flagship stores, outdoor cafés charging $9 for a latte, and enough selfie sticks to arm a small militia. The pigeons have been replaced by pickup artists--guys working the crowd like it's spring break year-round, angling for phone numbers from beautiful women in sundresses. Depending on your vibe, it's either comedy gold or background noise. But here's the truth: Lincoln Road is still Lincoln Road. The fountains still splash, the architecture still hums with mid-century glamour, and the people-watching is world-class. From models strutting past with shopping bags to a family of tourists melting under the Miami sun, this strip remains Miami Beach's beating heart.

Great destination with easy parking around and overall spot for dining, shopping and leisure and perfect to relax and people watch.

The Perez Art Museum, Kaseya Center, and the Frost Science Museum are a just a few blocks away. The two public garages for Miami Worldcenter are at 9th Street and NE 2nd Avenue. I recently had the chance to explore the Miami Worldcenter when I attended a Yelp event at SixtyVines, one of the first tenants of this development. Much of it is still under construction but there is still enough open to warrant a visit. An open-air shopping promenade runs north and south from NE 10th Street to NE 7th Street and between NE 1st and 2nd Avenues. A large public plaza and park will be surrounded by shops and restaurants to create a gathering space with public art. In addition to SixtyVines where I dined there is an Apple store, the first Miami location for Savage X Fenty by pop singer Rhianna, the Museum of Ice Cream, and Lucky Strike for bowling. Other open businesses include Sephora, Lulumon, Ray-Ban, The Container Store, Lucid Motors, Naftali Group, Free People. Hyp, and The Spot Barbership. Coming soon, Serafina. I love the public art, especially the historic globe that was once in the Pan Am Terminal on Dinner Key and then graced the entrance to the former Miami Science Museum for 55 years before being restored and installed in Miami Worldcenter.I am looking forward to coming back for a visit to the fun Museum of Ice Cream and to try some of the other restaurants as they open.

In case you are interested, the flagship stores for major fashion houses are Balenciaga, Dior, Gucci, Celine, and Louis Vuitton for clothing and accessories, and jewelers are Cartier and Harry Winston. Rolex also has a store here but it is not their flagship. There are many more high-end stores there for you to visit.
