If you’re celebrating a bride to be, here’s the BEST Miami Bachelorette Party itinerary. It makes for the perfect girls trip in Miami too!
South Beach baby!
I recently went for my dear friend’s Miami bachelorette party and had THE BEST TIME.
The bridesmaids planned our 3 day Miami girl’s trip to perfection. They spent hours researching, strategizing and tying everything together. It was flawless. So here it is! P.S. Although a bit grainy, I included some of our phone photos. Too much fun to not share!
MIAMI BACHELORETTE PARTY ITINERARY
Keep in mind, this agenda is ideal for a large group, girls trip. This includes upscale restaurants, night life and the perfect balance or relaxation and having fun. It’s also designed to accommodate a large herd of gabbing women. If it’s just a few of you, I recommend adventuring out more than listed below. Either way, this is a great base to work off. So easy and stress free!
3 Day Miami Bachelorette Party Details
THURSDAY
Arrive at the The Confidante Hotel Miami
This centrally located, Palm Beach inspired hotel contains the most colorful grounds you could imagine. From the beach, you can identify the The Confidante by their rainbow lounge chairs and umbrellas! One of the best hotels for bachelorette parties in Miami. It also backs up to the board walk – which I ran on twice. You can walk to several hotels and restaurants and the Jonathan Adler shampoo and conditioner is the cherry on top.
During the Day
Hit the beach! Leave bags with the concierge until 3 PM checkin. Complimentary lounge chairs for guests. Order an iced cold Corona (don’t forget the lime) and a hummus platter to kick off your perfect Miami Bachelorette Party!
Dinner
8 PM at Seagrape, located inside the The Confidante is a great spot to kick off your Miami Bachelorette Party. Reason being, you can wait for everyone else to arrive over cocktails (we had ladies flying in from all over). So random, but the Gem Lettuce salad is where it’s at. And I don’t normally do salads on vacation.
Our Looks For The Miami Bachelorette Party Night Out!
Rosé at The Delano Rose Bar
This luxurious, boutique hotel, is Miami’s famous and finest. Think white luxurious sheets hanging from the ceiling. It’s a must! Start with a flute of pink champagne at the tiny, tucked way Rose Bar – “a glamorous and sophisticated space, is a cocktail afficionado’s encalve.” If you’re not careful, you’ll miss it! Then make your way outdoors to the luxurious poolside lounge. Dress to impress.
FRIDAY
Save Your Seats
The pools (yes there are 2!) fill up fast. Stake your claim by placing flip flops, magazines and sunscreen on designated lounge chairs before breakfast. Be sure to snag a side table and umbrella too!
Breakfast
Brunch under the hotel’s open air veranda. We couldn’t get enough of the fresh fruit platter and granola.
Jessica and Kristen’s Pool Looks!
Jessica Diving In! (So sad her J.Crew summer straw hat is sold out!)
Pool Day, All Day
Pat yourself on the back for snagging your prime real estate chairs. Pity those in the far corner, away from the pool. Don’t forget a round of margs and multiple slatherings of sunscreen. Not to mention a new book.
3:00 Coconut Break!
Walk down the boardwalk for a fresh coconut. A local vendor cuts it open on the spot and pops in a straw. Heaven.
The Bride’s Pool Look (unfortunately her adorable coverup is last year)
4:30ish Head Back to Rooms to Get Ready
Play your best playlist and glue on those false lashes. After all, you have a tan and looking goooooood.
6:00 PM Party in the Bachelorette’s Room
Gifts, video, games and drinks! Of course, if you don’t have a bachelorette on your hands, you can skip this part.
Night Out! (P.S. Kristen’s pretty blue, lace dress is only $58!)
8:00 PM Dinner at Katsuya
A swanky, sushi restaurant located inside the SLS hotel. The best spicy tuna roll I’ve EVER had. The shishito peppers are money too. A few options for non sushi lovers and the vibe is so much fun. Dress to impress!
Nightcaps at the SLS Hotel Pool Bar
After dinner, mosey on out to the pool lounge bar for a lively atmosphere and people watching. So much fun! From here, see where the night blows you. It blew two of our girlfriends to Story – a popular nightclub. As for me, it blew me right to bed. Funny how that wind blows.
SATURDAY
Breakfast
Dine at the hotel or a near by restaurant. I hear Big Pink – a retro diner – is supposed to be awesome!
SLS Hyde Miami South Beach Pool Party (click for video!)
11:30 AM Pool Party at Hyde – also Inside the SLS Hotel
I’ll let the video speak for itself. And if this isn’t the definition of a Miami Bachelorette Party, I don’t know what is.
PRO TIP: tables are necessary (as there is nowhere to set your items). However incredibly pricey. But there are three small white tables poolside that are considered community. No one will tell you this and the staff doesn’t offer up this secret. But now that we are all in the inner circle, snag these tables quick!
Dinner at Bodega
If you do the pool party right, you may miss your dinner reservation. Like we did. This casual taco joint is supposed to be a blast! Next time right? We ended at the Thompson hotel bar and ordered that Gem Lettuce salad AGAIN. I loved it so much I’ve been replicating it at home.
Night out at LIV
This nightclub sits inside the famous Fountain Bleau Hotel. The good news is it doesn’t open until 11 PM – so that whole pool party is now a thing of the past. Enjoy cocktails in the hotel lobby prior.
2 AM Late Night Noodles to go – at Thompson Hotel
There are no words. Just do it. Trust me.
SUNDAY
Brunch at Soho House – Cecconi’s
Only a 5 minute walk from The Thompson, a trip to Cecconi’s is a MUST. And you HAVE to sit outside. The mason jar lanterns and twinkling lights invite you in with open arms. Cecconi’s is known for their Sunday brunch – the most luxurious buffet you’ve ever seen. But lunch, drinks or dinner, any day of the week does the trick. If you don’t have a reservation (it fills up every Sunday), don’t worry. Put your name in and have a bloody at the outside bar. The wait goes faster than the hostest will tell you 😉 Even if they say 2 hours…
Go Home!
You’re exhausted and you can’t wait to see your fur child, couch and better half.
Side Notes:
I was DYING to go to Wynwood, the Drunken Dragon (a hidden, local Korean BBQ restaurant known for spotting celebs), and the underground ice-rink. But you can’t do everything right?
So that’s it in a nutshell! What do you think? Have you been to a Miami Bachelorette Party? If so, anything I should add to the list? I had THE BEST time, I can’t wait to go back.
Congratulations again Kelly and we love you so much! Thanks for including me in your celebration and can’t wait for the nuptials. Whoop, whoop!
Ahh, so happy you put this together!! You better believe I’m staking out the best seat by the pool first thing in the morning 😉 Totally random, but did you know The Thompson was just acquired by Hyatt and is now The Confidante? I was worried when I first got wind of the change, but luckily, nothing is actually changing about the hotel other than the name! http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20160323006513/en/Hyatt-Acquire-Thompson-Miami-Beach-Hotel-Rebrand. p/s Working on that email to you, I promise!
26 and Not Counting
Haha! Luckily no one here is an early riser, so as long as you do it by 10:30, I’d say you are golden. Also, no I didn’t! But I saw you wrote that somewhere…So weird! To be honest, the service is horrible. But I think that is South Beach in general b/c 20% tip is built into every tab…versus having to work hard for the money. Oooooh! Oooooh! (just like the song). Make sure you get a fresh coconut! It was one of my favorites. Can’t wait to see your recap. I”m jealous you get to go. xoxo
This looks SO fun! I am dying to visit South Beach – totally bookmarking this post. Love all of the fun colors at the hotel!
Annie Reeves
Thank you Annie! I’m DYING to hear your recap of the conference this past weekend. You looked adorable!
Ahaha what a fun trip you had!! Makes me want a beach vacation like NOW!
Xoxo,

This looks like such a fun trip! Next time I head to Miami, I’ll make sure to use your tips 😉
