We stayed at... The Shore Club (shoreclub.com), a hip base on South Beach with everything you could wish for − ocean views, two infinity pools, a rooftop spa, a rum bar, a Nobu restaurant, plus 309 slickly-designed rooms. Doubles cost from £182 or bag a 'Be Young Be Fun' package including mojitos and late checkout.
