I'm trying to plan a girls trip to florida and we need to stick to the Miami area due to flying logistics. However, we are a low key group and our club hopping days are way behind us. Any recommendations on areas to stay in or places to go?
Follow up question, we are planning on going in September. I know this is hurricane season. Is this a dumb idea and should we just be looking somewhere else completely? Our other option is NYC.

When I was in Miami a few years ago we stayed at the North end of South beach and it was lovely and low key. It seemed like there were lots of posher hotels in the area and it was beautiful and quieter but just a shortish walk down the beach when we wanted to go out. Really though we spent most of our time on the beach or by the pool drinking cortados and rum drinks. We did go see the Wynwood walls, and that was cool and rode out to the Everglades one day, which was nice-ish but not a must do imo. The hotel we stayed at was the Durham and I would definitely recommend it. The pool/garden area is stunning. I know nothing about hurricane season, though, so can’t weigh in there.
NYC in September is also nice but totally different and if it were me trying to blow off steam from the last 2 years I would definitely pick Miami.
Either way have fun!

Update: my friend told me it was the Raleigh hotel not the Durham, which upon googling looks right, but also looks like it’s closed for renovations after extensive hurricane damage a few years ago.

@karenbme: Thank you so much! I think we're going to try to find an airbnb with a pool and hot tub in the north end actually.
