Ask Imagine: Family Activities in Miami

Dear Imagine Lifestyles,

I am a Miami local, but my family and I are relatively new to the area (less than one year).  We love the city and especially the beach.  We go out for dinner at what seems like a different and more exotic restaurant every weekend, and find that there are many things to keep us entertained.  I love your luxury blog and the exotic feel that Miami offers us for our lifestyle.

My question is what events are put together by the community that we may not be aware of?  The longer we are here, the more we want to become a part of the community.  I know there are likely some really interesting local traditions that we could adopt as a family.  Any tips would be appreciated.
 

Sincerely,
Cameron, North Miami Beach

Ask Imagine: Standard SUV Rental vs Luxury SUV Rental

Dear Imagine Lifestyles,
 

I will be visiting South Beach soon with my family of four.   I already know that I will need to rent an SUV, but am curious about the advantages of renting a luxury SUV rather than a standard SUV rental.  I know that South Beach is on the swanky side, and want to indulge in the vibe as a whole.  Could you give me some tips?

Thanks,

Michael, Chicago

Ask Imagine: Family Friendly Miami?

Dear Imagine Lifestyles,

I love to read your luxury blog before I start my day at the office every morning!  I live in New York, and because I work so much, I often take my family on long weekend escapes to squeeze in some quality time with them.  Next month I plan to take them to Miami and South Beach for some fun in the sun.

What hotels do you recommend for a large family to stay in?  I will be bringing my wife, two kids and also my parents.  I would like to position ourselves to where we can walk to the beach and a variety of exotic restaurants. 
Also, since I am traveling with six people, what type of SUV rental do you recommend?  I can’t see myself renting a van in luxurious South Beach. 

Thanks again,
David, New York

Smart Struggles-The Luxury Cars of the Future?

All luxury car fans recognize the winged badge on the nose of any Aston Martin, but would you recognize it on the nose of say, a much more diminutive Aston?  Let’s revisit the Aston Martin Cygnet.

This is a teeny member of the luxury car family, measuring in at barely 10 feet from nose to tail.  Look at the photo to the right, now try to picture James Bond behind the wheel…amused yet?  I am!Aston Martin Cygnet

This is a unique 3-door hatchback, quite futuristic and ideal for city living.  Originally the Cygnet was billed as a sort of sidekick, or the equivalent of a tender to a luxury yacht.  It seems the concept has re-emerged to fit the role as a luxury smartcar, and the timing could not be better, and is in-tune with current global realities and the worldwide auto industry’s decidedly green future.

What is more exciting is that Aston Martin is not the only company betting there is a market for downsized luxury cars.  To compliment new emission regulations in Europe and North America geared toward improving fuel economy, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Cadillac and Audi have all chimed in with their own downsized but upscale additions to their luxury fleets.

Mercedes-Benz has enjoyed success with its Smart brand, and BMW has succeeded across the board, from its large SUVs to its Mini brand.  It certainly seems all brands are interested in placing their unique take on the luxury hybrid market via their own downsized models.  It will be a little interesting to see how large of an impact these auto bits will have!

Cadillac Escalade ESV luxury SUV  Imagine Lifestyles Chicago Luxury and Exotic RentalsThe Cadillac Escalade ESV is a quintessential part of any luxury rental fleet.  It is quite possibly the most versatile luxury vehicle in production.  Not only can it be a show stopper on a night out on the town, but it is crucial for long trips or when transporting lots of cargo (passengers included).  Imagine Lifestyles Chicago also realized another significant need for this SUV; chauffeured rides.  Imagine Lifestyles Chicago will offer the Cadillac Escalade ESV with a chauffeur for all of Chicago’s driving needs.  It makes a dramatic statement to pull up to your destination in this gleaming fully loaded SUV, much more of a statement than your everyday limo.  Not only is the vehicle the most beautiful full size SUV on the market, it is also the most well equipped, and we insist on providing our clients with nothing but the best.
