“The Vagabond embraces its mid-century bones with restored mosaic pools and custom furniture that echoes the era; it feels both stylish and genuinely Miami. I appreciate that it's a quick trip from the airport and near the Wynwood art scene, but the on-site Mediterranean restaurant is also a draw. It's a neat blend of old-school charm and modern convenience.”
