I've actually stayed in several places in Downtown Miami, and like it a lot. The Mandarin Oriental, Intercontinental, and JW Marriott are all top notch properties.
Have to look into Wyndham props in downtown.....rewards points out the rear end

It will be fun no matter though, never had a bad boat show trip

We moved from our normal rooms on SoBe to the Marriott at Sea Isle. There is no part of the show there this year but they will have a water taxi to the show and it's a quick jump over the Venetian causeway to dinner or party on Sobe.

I stayed at the Biltmore in Coral Gables one year........it was great and what I saved (vs. SoBe) more than covered the cab fare back/forth. Now with Uber it would be a no brainer to stay there again!

Thinking about going. Wife prefers SoBe. What will be the best way to show? Is it even doable from there?

We booked the Shelborne. Just going to Uber to wither the harbor and catch a boat ride in or maybe just Uber the whole way.

Either way it's going to be fun

We will probably Uber to the sail area near the arena and then water taxi over. That way there is still some fun to have while waiting for the shuttle.
