Top 10 Miami Nightclubs

A new era of luxury clubs has ushered in a refined nightlife, waiting for you to explore it during your trip. While you're in the city, check out these top 10 Miami nightclubs.

Cameo

Formerly called Crobar, Cameo underwent a facelift and a name change, and has emerged to retain its status as one of the top 10 Miami nightclubs. You're likely to find a bevy of celebrities on any given night, ranging from sports stars to Hollywood A-List actors.

B.E.D.

B.E.D. is an acronym for "Beverages, Entertainment, and Dining", but it also describes this top 10 Miami nightclub's most unique characteristics. The club is themed around the bedroom, with pajama-clad servers providing cocktails and aphrodisiac-heavy cuisine. Club goers lounge on comfy beds and enjoy house and trance music that picks up as the night wears on. For the "Entertainment" part of the B.E.D. equation, you can enjoy a show in the Erotic Dinner Theatre, which features fetish cabaret performances.

Ink

Ink has positioned itself as a "boutique nightclub", and it offers an intimate, extremely high end VIP service that is highlighted by chic South Asian décor.

Bongos Cuban Café

Bongos is owned by Gloria and Emilio Estefan, and it is one of Miami's most genuinely fun nightclubs. It offers a Cuban restaurant and a dance floor that offers plenty of Latin flair. It's pretty close to the Miami Heat's arena, so cap off a fun game with a night of dancing at Bongos.

The Florida Room

The Florida Room at the Delano Hotel offers a change of pace from the other top 10 Miami nightclubs with its laid back, piano bar appeal. The cocktails at the Florida Room are top notch, so order your favorite and enjoy it while the soothing sounds of a piano wash over you. If you're lucky, a famous musician might just elect to play a song or two.

Wall

Wall sits near the top of the top 10 Miami nightclubs, and it is also cited as one of the top nightclubs in the world. It began as a joint effort between several established Miami club owners who sought to create the single trendiest spot in South Beach, and they found their location at the W Hotel. The atmosphere oozes sophistication and sex appeal. Bring a lot of money.

LIV

LIV is another top 10 Miami nightclub located on South Beach, and it too is considered one of the world's best as well. It can be found at the renowned Fountainebleau Hotel, where it presides as (according to rumors) the highest grossing club in the world. LIV's 30,000 sq. ft. expanse fuses energetic dance floor spaces with lounge class, making this an appealing location for just about any club goer. Much like Wall, expect to spend your fair share of change.

Santo

Santo is a relative newcomer to the Miami club scene, but it has made a splash amongst popular rappers, DJs, and producers with its sophisticated edge.

Glass at the Forge

If you're lucky enough to get inside, Glass at the Forge offers one of Miami's best hip-hop club experiences, along with plenty of requisite house music. The door is tough, but you'll be rewarded with extravagantly decorated lounge spaces that will leave you in awe (or totally disinterested, if you're too cool for that kind of thing).

Abraxas

For beer lovers, none of the other top 10 Miami nightclubs will satisfy you quite like Abraxas. With more than 200 specialty beers available, you'll find a beer that you can't seem to find anywhere, or even one that you've never even heard of. Abraxas also has an excellent wine selection, and music that ranges from funk to new wave to house.

Now that you know where you want to party, find a Miami hotel near your favorite nightclub to crash for the night.
