Art Basel week is the best and busiest the city gets. The trick to enjoying it is geography: stay in Brickell or Downtown, not on the Beach. The fairs are on Miami Beach, but the after-hours — the dinners, the gallery parties, the late drinks — are increasingly on the mainland, and the causeway traffic during Basel is its own event.
From a Brickell residence you can take the short hop over to the Convention Center during the day and be back across the water for dinner without losing an hour each way. We arrange the rides ahead so you're not fighting for a car at 6 PM on a Friday during the single busiest week of the Miami year.
Book the residence early — Basel week is the first calendar to sell out, often months ahead — and tell us which fairs and dinners you're targeting. We'll line the week up so the art is the part you remember, not the logistics.
