Later, after filming was completed, Bravo chose instead to make it another installment in the network's ''The Real Housewives'' franchise. Bravo announced on February 3, 2011, that the series would premiere later that month and that the fourth-season premiere of ''The Real Housewives of New York City'', originally scheduled for February 15, would be pushed back until April. Shortly after the season aired, Andy Cohen went on the record stating the reason for the series broadcast, "we put it on because everyone in America was going through such a horrible winter and we just kind of realized we had Miami on the shelf." Cohen also claimed the series had few episodes to be "a six-week kind of antidote to all the winter madness."

The season premiered with "Paradise Cost" on February 22, 2011, while the sixth episode "Miami Mamis Know Best" served as the season finale, and was aired on March 29, 2011. It was followed by a reunion special that aired on April 5, 2011, on ''Watch What Happens Live'', which marked the conclusion of the season.
