South Beach's Hottest Nightclubs - The Miami Club Hot List

Where to go and when - advice from your local insiders at SoBeVIPs.

What club is the best on ____ night?

Sundays:

Club Nikki (was Pearl), Nikki Beach
1 Ocean Dr
This party is either a great end to the weekend or a great start. You can start out in the sand at Nikki Beach listening to great electro house music and drinking mojitos, then shower up and hit Club Nikki at night. Club Nikki plays mixed format music at night (hip-hop, house, 80's etc.) at night and has a very strict dress code. Guys, this means no t-shirts and sneakers. Celebrity sightings are normal.

Mondays:

BED
929 Washington Ave
BED Monday's is a local scene which revolves around a hip-hop dinner party. It's young and fun. Expect to see some HEAT players and maybe some hip hop guys. Miami local Pitbull is there every Monday, and Shaq was there last Monday for example.

Tuesdays:

Rok Bar
1906 Collins Ave
Rok Bar is, well, a rock bar. It's not CBGB, it's a Miami style rock bar, which means everyone buys ripped clothes on Lincoln Road and goes to Rok Bar. Not that that's a bad thing. Rok Bar is a ton of fun. It's usually packed, so if you can't take shoulder to shoulder rocking this is not the place for you. If you can handle it, expect to be wasted in no time and rocking to the best tunes on XM channel 47.

If Rok Bar doesn't work out for you, try Prive on Tuesday.

Wednesdays:

Glass
432 W 41st St
Glass is attached to the Forge steakhouse up on 41st. It's a fun party, it's also full of money. This is a great Wednesday if you're on a bach party and need to do dinner and a club. It's always a good time and there's a hip hop as well as a house area. Tons of good looking people, I think you get the idea.

Thursdays:
As of Thursday, you start to have some options...

Our recommendation:
SET
320 Lincoln Road
This place is brand new and pretty spectacular. They have a mixed format, mostly beautiful local people and is by far the best thing going on Thursday nights.

Other spots:
Mansion
1235 Washington Ave
Mansion's Party has come and gone and it seems to be back again with Stephan at the helm. I would come late and stay late if you're planning on going. Mixed format, locals and tourists.

Fridays:

Mansion
1235 Washington Ave
The original hip hop party. They usually have a celebrity guest and it's a good mix of tourists and locals. The entire main dancing area is closed to VIP on Fridays.

Prive
136 Collins Ave
Fridays at Prive also seem to be back. It's a mixed format and packed with young people.

Snatch
1437 Washington Ave
A sort of rock bar, sort of club. Good times are had here. Like Rok Bar, it's usually jam packed.

Saturdays
Lots of options. It's the biggest party night of the week.
Prive
136 Collins Ave
They close Prive to VIP only on Saturdays, and the crowd shows it. Very fun mixed format scene with friendly staff and good tunes. Local hip hop celebrities are here every Saturday.

Mynt
1921 Collins Ave
Mynt is still rocking on Saturdays. The scene upstairs is full of beautiful people showing ridiculous amounts of spending power. It's a house music place, and if you like that kind of music like me, you will be happy all night. They have a hip hop room downstairs that is all redone, but is really hit or miss.

Mokai
235 23rd street
Mokai is brand new. It's a beautiful place and tends to attract people that got bored with Mynt. It's full of South Beach models and bottles. The music is mixed and drinks are pricey.

Suite
439 Washington Ave
Suite is a blast on Saturdays. It's a house music night and the crowd is nothing but 9's and 10's. Expect celebrities and an empty wallet, but a great time.
Get started planning your night out!
