  • Miami Clubs: 7/31/14

    Hey guys, I tried to use the search feature, but wasn't successful.

    I'm headed to Miami for a wedding and there will be a one night bachelor party 7/31 (Thursday night before wedding). I've never been and was wondering if I could get any insight of some of the better spots and budget estimates. I'm not planning it, but I'd like to seem knowledgeable and could forward any hosts information you guys could provide!

    Thanks!
    If you have to ask how much it costs, you probably can't afford it! That being said, it's Vegas and doesn't hurt to try!

    2014 - March 13-16 - Bachelor Party
    2014 - June 5th - 9th (maybe) - Big 30.

    OK so get ready to SPEND. Its a fair bit more than Vegas.

    best club is probably Liv. $2k mins plus tax/grat. E11even has just opened, meant to be good. Story is good aswell, bit more underground talent. Think Liv = XS. Story = Marquee.

    I didnt like Mansion but thats a busy spot. Cameo too. Good little place for Wednesday nights is Mokai. Set is serious A list and incredible talent, same for Wall at the W.

    Like I mentioned - its eye watering money out there. South Beach is a mother fucker for budgets. Its almost $50 for two drinks. Even in places like the Clevelander which is pretty low key its 50 bucks for two drinks.

    But its a great great town. you have to hit up the pool parties at the lovely hotels at SLS, Delano and so on. Hyde Beach at SLS is shit hot

    Enjoy.

        Thanks for the info. I do have a couple of questions.

        Is tax/auto-grat similar to vegas (28%)? Would there be better spots on a Thursday, sort've like how vegas has more industry nights such Tryst Thursdays, etc.)? I'l have the wife with me, who isn't into clubs. So outside of the one night bachelor party on thursday, that will be the only club night. How would you compare the pool parties to vegas?

        Any recommendations on places to stay? Not looking to break the bank on hotel though.

          No worries

          yes, 28%, probably 10% LET too, as in Miami they are money grabbers.

          Yeah so each place is good on certain nights. Liv is good every night its open, and rammed. I would check want tickets for these to see whats open to gauge the costs.

          Liv
          Story
          Wall
          Set
          E11even
          Mokai

          I couldnt tell you what the best spot is im afraid, jus see what talents running.

          Pool party wise it isnt as crazy or friendly as Vegas. Miami is very very "there to be seen". Some would say pretentious. Its all about image and much more so than anywhere ive ever been. The pool parties are as such and its more about the party around the pool as opposed to in it. Girls will be in bikini's but with Manolo's on. They wont entertain the pool with that hair! haha! Its great fun just dont get taken in by the locals and take yourself too seriously. Your best bet is to go where the tourists are as its very cliquey.

          This is the problem though - money. Its so expensive for guys. For girls, ive never known anywhere where they get so much shit for free. But if youre a guy prepare to spend huge. If you want tables at a club it's gonna set you back and much more than you would in Vegas. Basically cos if a club in MIA doesnt sell a table they'll leave it unsold rather than get people in to fill it to keep it exclusive. So two guys is usually $2k minimum. It's $1000 each if you want tables id guess. Getting into clubs without girls on your arm is a minefield at the door. Major problems. The doormen wont even entertain you if you are not at LEAST an equal group. I had trouble getting into Liv last year with 3 guys and 12 girls. In fact one of my friends wasnt allowed through.

          Places to stay. Hotels are very expensive. But id always say the Fontainebleau. Its the best hotel ive been to I think. the W, Delano, Shore Club, SLS, Loews, all fantastic. Clevelander if you want a more spring breaky style crowd.

          Id advise using AirBnB and hiring someones apartment. There's literally hundreds out there to be hired and its alot cheaper. You can rent a 3 bed penthouse for a week for the same sort of money you'd pay for a room at the Fontainebleau
