Day 1. Welcome to Miami!
Once you check into your hotel, The Gabriel, it’s time for your welcome cocktail (a Cosmopolitan, ofc). Depending on when you get in, you may have time for a post-plane ride beach hang (chairs and towels are included with your stay), or you can bike around South Beach to get some movement in after your travel day (your CosmoTrip comes with a complimentary two-hour bike rental). For dinner, head to Dalia, the hotel’s indoor/outdoor Mediterranean restaurant. After you eat, head back to the room for a complimentary in-room movie—you get one per day!
Raise your hand if you 100% want to be near the beach when you stay in Miami. Yeah? Us, too. That’s why we put you at The Gabriel, a 132-room boutique hotel just ~three minutes~ from South Beach. As one of Miami’s most artsy and design-forward hotels, The Gabriel is known for its sleek, fashionable feel and custom-curated art and creative work spaces. There are also two European-influenced restaurants, and two inventive bars. Perhaps best of all, there’s also a pool deck on the 14th floor with private cabanas, epic city views and cocktails—so you can alternate between beach bumming and poolside partying. Um, hi…can we join you please??
Day 2. Miami
Wake up and have a light breakfast to start off your full day in Miami. Then, it’s time for your two main activities of the day: the Street Art & Foodie Heaven Self Guided City Game tour through Wynwood, followed by your Cosmo Chic lunch experience at Le Chick Wynwood. Spend the afternoon at The Gabriel’s sweet rooftop pool, then grab dinner at Dalia or one of Miami’s many incredible restaurants (the hotel has a shuttle service that brings you downtown).
Wynwood: Street Art & Foodie Heaven Self Guided City Game
This fun and interactive self-guided walk slash scavenger hunt will take you through Miami's most colorful neighborhood: Wynwood. Known for its amazing street art murals and great food, the neighborhood is one of the go-to destinations in the Magic City. For the walk, you’ll start at the Wynwood Walls exhibit of world-renowned innovators in street art and graffiti artists (tickets are included with your CosmoTrip), and then explore the surrounding area. On the way, you’ll get to see some of the neighborhood's most famed murals as well as many of its celebrated foods, including baked goods, craft ice pops, and all of the donuts. Your experience will end in one of Wynwood's best breweries and beer gardens.
So how does it work, exactly? It’s an app, so first things first, you’ll need to download it on your phone. Then, it’s all about your imagination. You’ll need to put yourself in the shoes of Victoria Beaumont, the app’s fictional heroine who just so happens to be an Oxford-born socialite, aspiring interpretive dancer, fierce art critic, and all-around go-getter. Then you simply follow directions and take on 14 different challenges, where, as Victoria, you will be asked to solve puzzles and decipher riddles. Throughout the walk, you’ll not only put yourself in Victoria’s shoes, but you’ll also have access to fun facts about the locations and artworks you see along the way. FYI, you’ll be able to pause the game at any point so that you can spend as much time at each location as you like. So bring your camera, come hungry, and bring some cash, as you are in for a few (or many) treats!
Le Chick Wynwood Cosmo Chic Lunch Experience
Located in the heart of Wynwood, Le Chick—founded by restaurateurs Coco Coig and Jorge Sanchez in 2017—is all about delish American-style meals served in an upscale, homey atmosphere, one that works especially well for a late-night vibe. The decor is very much brown-leather meets dark wood chic, and the food is just as cozy (think fried chicken, truffled deviled eggs, sweet potato fries, and more). On this CosmoTrips experience, you’ll get an exclusive chef-curated three-course lunch, complete with quality time with the chef, not to mention a complimentary welcome cocktail and a take-home Polaroid photo (hi, hello, best retro souvenir ever).
Day 3. Depart Miami
It’s time to check out, womp womp. Enjoy one last breakfast before you make your way to the airport. Until next time, Miami!Â
