Winter doesn’t necessarily mean cold weather, particularly in South Florida. But winter in cities like Miami and Fort Lauderdale does mean cooler and drier days, making for the perfect time to enjoy an alfresco dining experience. But in cities with a plethora of restaurants to choose from, how do you choose?
We’re here to help.

Located in Downtown Miami, this restaurant is the city’s latest culinary destination from Michelin-starred chefs Carolina Sanchez and Iñaki Murua. Featuring a verdant courtyard, Mediterranean-inspired design and Latin charm, MOMENTO offers an inviting outdoor ambiance to savor Ecuadorian- and Spanish-inspired dishes created in a state-of-the-art wood oven. Signature dishes include Amazonian tiradito and Basque-style turbot.

Spend your Miami evening on a rooftop at El Cielo at Casa Vigil, a newly opened speakeasy where Argentinian-inspired mixology and immersive art come together for a mystical escape beneath the stars. The bar, situated above El Cielo, serves craft cocktails and shareable Argentinian dishes. Be sure to try the coconut-infused Yemaya or fiery Lucifer while enjoying house beats and Renaissance-inspired décor.

Coming this December to Fort Lauderdale, Sotogrande brings Southern Spanish and Eastern Mediterranean flavors to the city’s Pier Sixty-Six. Featuring shareable plates and authentic spices, this restaurant offers outdoor seating to transport guests to a sun-kissed seaside village of the Mediterranean.

For a more casual alfresco dining experience, Francisca immerses guests in Latin American vibes and flavors with grilled chicken and meats perfected on the Josper Grill. With locations across Miami, this eatery features dishes like fried snapper fish.

May 23, 2025Relax, Rejuvenate and Heal at StolenTime
At the namesake luxury, 5-star all-inclusive resort in Saint Lucia, the concept of “stolen time” used to be reserved for couples escaping to canoodle, reconnect and perhaps rekindle in sumptuous accommodations during a romantic getaway on the lush Caribbean island. But when StolenTime by Rendezvous rebranded in late 2022 to welcome all adult guests and focus more on wellness, the philosophy expanded to encompass self-reflection, personal growth and enrichment. After all, time is our most precious commodity, one that’s finite and too quickly slips through our grasp; we need to find those moments that matter and make them count.

Today, framed Matisse prints — many brightly colored cut-out collages from the artist’s JAZZ collection — decorate its walls. Hotel guests also benefit from a partnership with the museum.
