The 11 Most Instagrammable Places in Miami

There are places every Miami photographer shoots — those classic locations that everyone knows about — but many of Miami’s hottest Instagram backdrops are behind closed doors, hidden with a bit more subtlety. Our list of most Instagrammable places in Miami features museums and mansions, hotels and private villas, and street art galore. So put on Will Smith’s “Miami,” turn it up loud, and let’s get started. (Don’t worry. We won’t judge you.)

You may notice that most of these places are available through Peerspace, the largest online marketplace for hourly venue rentals. We have hundreds of stunning Instagram-worthy venues in Miami just waiting to be discovered! The list below is only a handful of our finest offerings, so be sure to check out what else we have near you. Plus, when you book a Peerspace, you can rely on the Concierge service for extras. For instance, these logistical wizards can source and deliver special lighting, furnishings, and even catering to your venue, should you so need it. Now, back to our list!

1. This Miami Beach stunning villa

One picture alone doesn’t really do this place justice, and the sleek modern architecture of the exterior is just as Instagrammable as the interior décor. This villa also has a pool surrounded by lush palm trees, ensuring you can get all the poolside shots galore. When you’re here, you’re ‘gramming “the good life,” a genre of Instagram content as old as the app itself. 

2. Faena Miami Beach

Faena is a luxury hotel with an art-deco vibe and decadence to spare. Poolside, the juxtaposition of the hotel’s red cabana stripe umbrellas and the perfect green of the surrounding palm trees make for a striking photograph. But the real star of the show is the gold mammoth in a glass case in the lobby area’s gardens. Not only is it a striking image, but the fact that it combines the shape of a long-extinct animal’s skeleton with a material so strongly associated with opulence gives the whole piece a gravity that’s hard to shake. Just like you didn’t scroll past this one, neither will your followers. 

3. This intimate event lounge

This is one of those spaces designed to be easily molded to suit your purpose. All of the furniture is lightweight enough to be re-arranged or completely removed, converting the lounge into a completely open space. The west entrance has a garden feel to it, so there are some suitable outdoor shots to take, and since the venue is also an art gallery, there’s no shortage of Instagrammable beauty on the walls. If you want, you can even arrange to provide your own artwork to hang. 

According to a Peerspace reviewer who booked this space for an event: “The hosts were very nice and answered all my questions promptly. The venue was beautiful and had everything they advertised. I met one of the owners during my event and she was very helpful and nice. I would definitely recommend this space to others and would book again if I am in the area.”

4. This epic private mansion

That’s right — it’s a private mansion, with access to private islands, by way of their private paddle board rentals! This epic mansion boasts a beautiful waterfront perch and incredible modern touches throughout. We also love the fact that this entire mansion is opened to you, and offers different experiences on all five of its levels. The whole space is truly fit for a celebrity, so there are ample Instagram opportunities; it’s a place to live your best life and capture every minute of it.  

5. Wynwood Walls

This is one of those classic Miami Instagram locations. Wynwood is best known for its colorful murals, especially those at Wynwood Walls, an open-air museum that features ambitious work from some of the world’s most well-known street artists. But Wynwood’s artistic energy is on display pretty much everywhere in the neighborhood, and not just on its walls. Funky bars and eateries, chic shops, and edgy galleries abound. Visit this place. You won’t regret it.

6. This dynamic, chic photo studio

If you’re looking to really stage a proper photoshoot to create some professional Instagram content, this is the perfect place for it. It’s got a full-size cyclorama wall and serious lighting equipment to compliment it. But before you or your models pose, everyone can get ready in the very cool and very retro makeup room. Between takes, there’s a loft lounge space overlooking the studio floor to watch from.   

This is another space popular with content creators! Just check out this review from a photographer: “The place is great for photo shoots. Ample space for 2 makeup artists to work simultaneously. We had 6 models plus 8 staff members plus photographer. The second floor is great for breaks and there is a fridge which comes in handy. The TV can be synced to see live view if the pictures which was a nice bonus. Antonio is a great host and has gone above and beyond with accommodations. He has 2 tables available for use and even offered us a clothing rack for our second shoot. I have already booked twice and will continue booking.”

7. This Mediterranean-inspired rooftop with stunning views

Sample a taste of the Mediterranean without even stepping foot on a plane. Situated in charming Coral Gables, the Ponce de Leon rooftop terrace offers tasteful sectionals throughout the courtyard, as well as breathtaking views under warm bistro lighting. Top off your Insta feed with an aerial shot of the city taken from this gorgeous rooftop.

8. Vizcaya Museum and Gardens

Vizcaya is a 34-room mansion built in 1910, and every inch of it is Instagram-worthy. The mansion itself is surrounded by flawlessly manicured European-style gardens, and the whole property sits right along the water. Seriously, check out Instagram photos tagged from this location, and you’ll see a pretty dizzying number of different kinds of shots you can capture all in this one place. Don’t forget to recreate the classic shot looking straight down the center of the marble spiral staircase near the café area.

9. This stunning Little River warehouse studio

This multi-purpose urban oasis has enough going on to keep your phone camera busy for hours. It’s full of clean lines and lovely textures to provide the perfect photo backdrop, as well as ample windows to take full advantage of that shining South Florida sunlight. As a quirky bonus, the space has automatic disco lights, so if you’re planning a particularly Instagrammable event, make sure to take full advantage.

Peerspace users love this space’s host as much as the space itself, according to several reviews! “Rikki was amazing from start to finish. The space was perfect and she was amazingly helpful and accommodating. For ANYONE looking for a venue in Miami, we would highly recommend using this beautiful space.”

10. The Frost Museum of Science

The Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science is a world-class museum, aquarium, and planetarium. Some of the rarest sights in the world are curated here for your personal amazement — and photography. In fact, the museum is so Instagrammable that the organization itself publishes its own lists of the best selfie spots on the premises. Without a doubt, the most famous Instagram location is at The Oculus, a giant circular window beneath a shark-filled aquarium. 

11. This incredible daylight loft studio with views

This chic industrial space is one of the most Instagrammable places in Miami due to its versatility and glorious natural light. It’s the perfect mix of hard and soft, thanks to its warehouse-like ceilings and floors and the abundant elegant furnishings. Your rental will include the space itself, use of the rooftop, parking, and all furniture. The host also offers add-on options, such as a cyc wall, blackout curtains, backdrops, and strobe lighting.

The studio has many, many five-star reviews, Including this one, that sums up an experience well: “The venue was beyond beautiful! Olga was very responsive and readily available to help us with parking and access into the building. The space was super clean and looked even more stunning in person. I would eagerly book this space again! If you are on the fence, feel free to take my word for it. You will not regret it!!”
