Located just north of South Beach on Collins Avenue, this hip incarnation of New York’s Ganesvoort hotel plays host to Miami’s hottest rooftop party. Just like its sister in the Big Apple, this place revolves around the huge rooftop infinity pool. Relax on the chic white lounge chairs or curl up in a cabana to soak in the stunning ocean and city views.
It’s the weekend nights and Saturday pool parties — when the crowds, $900 bottles and DJs come out — that the hotel’s roof becomes Plunge, a money making venue marketed as “the country’s largest rooftop adults-only playground”. Strong, sexy cocktails, smooth beats, and a scene that rivals some clubs in south beach.
Plunge at Gansevoort South
Town House
The outdoor rooftop terrace features red king-size waterbeds paired with huge umbrellas for sunbathers and shade-seekers alike. At night the rooftop transforms into one of South Beach’s hottest social scenes, with rocking roof parties Friday and Saturday nights.
Friday nights are hosted by Erica Freshman and Zack Bush, and bring in a young, chill crowd looking to relax under the stars in a posh setting. The rooftop lounge is both romantic and stimulating, making it the ideal place to bring a date, or a great spot to meet your next one.
The Rooftop is sometimes reserved for private events, parties, and production…
Club 50 at Viceroy
Perched atop Icon Brickell/Viceroy’s 50th floor, C-50 is a low-slung, “semi-private” lounge decked out in marbled floors and turquoise leather sofas, and sporting an outdoor pool (highest in city) and bar area
“Semi-private” means the club’s technically for residents and hotel guests, but you can most likely slide in by eating at the 15th-floor resto, then getting the maitre to put you on the special elevator; or, apply for (free) membership by emailing the address: Club50@ViceroyMiami.com
