Travel Guide Videos

Good afternoon Beacon Insiders!!

We all enjoy getting something for nothing. And when that something involves a cultural outing that the whole family can enjoy, even better. Miami offers a couple fun and entertaining options that usually involve sun bathing, dancing and partying. Check out these Travel Guide Videos for Miami and South Beach!!

Enjoy!!

City tour 5th edition

Hello everyone!

Today we went on yet another tour, our 6th overall but my 5th, if you remember Fritz hosted our first one. And it was the best turnout yet. We had 9 guests, which beats our previous record of 7 guests attended the tour.

We had a great time, it was another beautiful day in Miami, however it was a chilly day today. Cold for us Miamians is when its below 70 degrees F, it was in the upper 50's. But no need to fear, we are expecting our normal tropical weather this coming weekend.

With not further ado, here are this week's pics from the tour. It's a picture of our driver Angel (left) and me (right), talking to the guests.

Hope you enjoyed the tour as much as I did!!

American Express Grassroots challenge update

Hello Beacon Insiders!!

Some of you may be wondering what is the Grassroots challenge? Well if you read my previous post you'll see exactly what it is.

Now, I'm very disappointed in Miami, we currently rank 6 in the standings, view full list. I know and believe we can do much more and perhaps get first place before the end of the challenge.

So, open up your wallets, purse's, bags and take out your American Express so that we can continue getting votes and reach 1st place.

Here's a clip of American Express membership projects: Enjoy!

New Mezzanine Furniture

Hey everyone!

So we got some new furniture this past weekend placed in our mezzanine area. This area is used for you (our guests) to sit down relax, watch TV, and enjoy the soothing music playing in the lobby.

Here's the pics, tell us what you think!

Thanks for all your comments!

Free City Tour "Cuban colada version"

Hello everybody!

We once again had a great tour today, we had a total of 7 participants and 1 baby (beautiful girl by the way). We first left with 6 but then we had a last minute arrival who meet us at Coconut Grove (he partied alot the night before). We stopped at all of the usual spots, Biltmore Hotel, Venetian Pool and of course Little Havana.

We actually have a little clip of when we stopped at Little Havana and drank some Cuban colada (Cuban for expresso), in which this is the true way in which you are supposed to drink up coffee.......

A shot.

This is very customary in the Cuban community, every morning someone brings the colada and then you share it amongst your co-workers. Just one little shot will keep you running in full gear for about 4-5 hours.

Enjoy the clip!

Till the next tour, keep on blogging at our South Beach Hotel.
