Coral Gables (1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom)

Located just off Red Road, your apartment would be the perfect retreat after an evening ofexploring nearby bars and restaurants. You’d be about a five-minute walk from some of our favorites: SoulCycle and Nordstrom. Oh, and about that kitchen? Yeah, we’d have no problem channeling our inner Julia Child and whipping up dinner five nights a week.

Wynwood/edgewater (1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom)

We could mention the stainless-steel appliances, the floor-to-ceiling windows or the fact that it’s located in the middle of three killer neighborhoods (Wynwood, Edgewater and Midtown). But honestly, we’re too busy losing our minds over that damn view.

Coconut Grove (1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom)

How cute is this one-bedroom in Coconut Grove? It’s fully remodeled and only a few streets away from CocoWalk. Plus, you’d be next-door neighbors with the dreamy Peacock Park, which means happy hour and weekly brunch at Glass & Vine.

Kendall/dadeland (1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom)

We may not be on an island, but this apartment has an island. That counts for something, right? Like being able to host a cocktail party, complete with a full hors d’oeuvres spread, without your guests tripping over you in the kitchen.

Brickell/downtown (studio)

If you want to make downtown happen, you can’t do better than these swanky studios at the Broadstone Brickell. Not to mention, this listing has luxuries out the wazoo. In addition to a sparkling resort-style pool, you’ll find an outdoor boxing gym with an indoor fitness center nearby, a movie theater, a cyber café and a dog-washing station (yes, that’s actually a thing).

South Beach (1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom)

Who needs more than 600 square feet of living space when you’re literally a few steps away from the beach? With an apartment like this, just think of all the money you wouldn’t have to spend on annual island vacations.

Sunny Isles Beach (1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom)

Your last attempt to say you still live in Miami before officially jumping ship and moving to Broward. The apartment itself is decently sized and comes with a balcony. And with this cozy living room, it isn’t hard to picture friends gathering for Bachelorette viewing sessions.
