ummmm......no. Deerfield Beach is about 40-45 miles from South Beach. DB is the northern most town in Broward County and is about 15 miles north of the Ft Lauderdale airport.

Check out Lip-Ship Performance and the Spinnaker Marina next door some NICE hardware to drool over Cigarette Racing factory isn't too far from there either, but it's not located in the nicest town.....keep the doors and windows locked

Whatever you do, stay in Miami Beach, or just over the causeway near the cruise port and Bayside. Some other area's of Miami are a little shady at best, especially for out of towners that don't know what to expect. Coconut Grove is another good option. I am not much on Miami nightlife(except during the boatshow, SHHH dont tell my wife), but you cant go wrong with Lincoln Road and Washington Ave. There are also other options if you don't mind renting a car such as the upper keys, or North to Broward/Palm Beach counties, Nicer hotels and restaurants in my opinion for less $$, but your gonna travel a bit to party.
Here would be my choice if staying in palm Beach County

Just south of Ft. Lauderdale

or Miami Beach

or Key largo

Of course there are cheaper options, but be careful as to what you pick, there are some dumps also.
