Tough choice. I'd probably go for Honolulu due to the more comfortable summers (a little cooler with much lower dew points). Miami does have a more interesting climate though with many thunderstorms and the possibility of winter cold snaps.
Similar sentiments to the posters that sit on the warm/sunny side of the line. Honolulu as well. I seem to be one of these rare types that prefers predictable, warm (but not too hot) climates.
I like Honolulu for it's warmer winter, but I know I won't be able to go every winter. I heard it costs $10K for 2 weeks (air tickets, hotels blah blah blah), so I am willing to settle with Miami or S FL where I can stretch my hard earned $ better, I could get months in S FL for just 2 weeks in Honolulu.
Honolulu for me, been there a few times & to me it has the perfect climate

$10k for 2 weeks in Honolulu?!? Where are you flying from & planning to stay at those prices?!
I have been there for up to 3 weeks at a time (from the UK) & flights/hotel have only cost around £1500/$2400, obviously food/drink/spending money on top of that, but unless you are planning to fly first class & stay in the swankiest hotel, it can certainly be done a lot cheaper than $10K...
I even went on a couple of week long cruises around the Hawaiian islands (with a week in a hotel too) & it still didn't cost that much more...
