Hello! I am coming to Miami for the first time in Dec to visit art fairs. Im not really interested in art parties or nightlife, and would like to balance out going to the fairs with a little exploration. Im not planning on renting a car, but am open to it if that seems like the best way to meet my needs. My favorite thing to do in new cities is walk around so no problem walking alot. My main question is where I should stay. I would like to have some places within walking distance, not be too noisy, and not too far from the fairs, most of which I think are in Miami Beach. Thanks!

Hyde Beach Hollywood style found its way to South Beach in June 2012 when the SLS Hotel opened at the corner of Collins and 17th, and brought the ultra-exclusive Hyde nightclub with it. The daytime pool party is always a riot. We’re talking CO2 cannons, go-go dancers, fist-pumping out-of-towners and cocktails the size of football players. From Thursday to Sunday, the action continues well past sunset, when scenesters hunker down within the whimsical, Philippe Starck-designed club for A-list acts like Guy Gerber, Claptone and Kaskade.
