We lived in the area just north of the stadium and I worked in Miami twice for a total of 10 years but we haven’t lived there since 2003. The advice I was given when we moved there was to stay west of University Drive and as far north as you feel comfortable driving. I think that probably still applies. We are trying to decide if we are going and if we do we will stay in the Weston area. That is where we lived and we are familiar with it and it is about 20 minutes from the stadium with normal traffic. When I searched properties my choice would have been the Vacation Village at Weston. It is near or on the Bonaventure Golf course and I was pretty surprised at how reasonable their rates are. There are plenty of restaurants in the Westin area and around the Sawgrass Mills mall.
