Just booked a really affordable Costco trip to Miami for November. You might want to look into it?

We've never visited either place, but there's no good reason why. Destin is five hours and can often be a pain in the arse. The non stop flight from MSY is just 2 hours so we might go back quite often if we like it.

Regarding danger, are you referring to the isolated event during spring break? I'm wouldn't be too worried about that kind of stuff in mid summer, and especially not during Thanksgiving.

The immediate South Beach area has gotten sort of trashy, but, yeah, it's not really "dangerous" in any real sense during any normal times.

Anything from just north of that immediate area, all the way through Fr. Lauderdale and beyond is fine, though. Just slightly different "scenes." I kid of dig Hollywood Beach for an old school beach boardwalk vibe, but there aren't a lot of hotel offerings there.

Beaches are much different than the gulf coast.

Yeah, the Spring Break crowd put a damper on the Miami scene for us; especially since the Mayor had to declare a State of Emergency for the area due to the amount of commotion coming from there. I am not sure if that will follow for the summer.
