clubs for reggaeton please?

Hi all, I’ll be staying in South Beach in mid/May for a long weekend (Cancun alternative)

Are there any good clubs (reggaton/latin) that are walking distance from Collins Ave?

Any other good night spots are not too crowded (if there is such thing).

Also, which clubs/bars would you advise AGAISNT and why? We’re only staying 3 nights so don’t want to waste time on dead tourist traps ;)

Not sure where you are staying but here goes...

The only Reggae spot MIGHT be the Marlin Bar.

Otherwise -

There is a more laid back pedestrian mall on Miami Beach called Lincoln Road that is around 17th Street. You could visit there day or night to shop and stroll and have a bite at a sidewalk cafe and an ice cream at the FRIEZE on Michigan afterward.

There is a cool Chinese place just off the mall on Meridian called Miss Yip%26#39;s that%26#39;s cool... UPstairs afterward, hit Buck15 nightclub. VERY COOL lounge www.buck15.com

One evening after a day at the beach, check out Lucky Strike - a brand new LA Style adult nightclub-meets-bowling alley. Read this article and see their website too.

Check out Hotel Victor (rooftop bar; very swanky, very of the moment) hotelvictorsouthbeach.com

The Setai (poolside bar; ditto) setai.com

The Rose Bar @ The Delano (you have to go just to check out the “scene” and gorgeous poolside area) delano-hotel.com

Afternoon to sundown, try the Clevelander pool bar at 10/Ocean. Outdoors, low key, normal people... breezy and pleasant.

If you%26#39;re more wine than beer (or want to meet folks who are) Vino Miami Wine Bar and Boutique 1601 Washington Ave ';Sophisticated South Beach Happy Hour'; goes from 4pm to 7pm, Tue-Fri, and offers $5 glasses of boutique reds and whites.

If you want to go all out...

These places are a little more difficult to get into,Show up on the early side (11ish) and you should be good.

Sky Bar is the Thursday night IT party. Also pretty fun on Saturdays. It can be difficult to get in, but if you show up around 10:30 or 11, you should be fine. Sky Bar is a wide open outdoor space (lounge, not a club) with many bars scattered about; the crowd is eclectic, all types of people, wide range of ages. It%26#39;s really a very fun and diverse crowd; one of the best parties on the beach. www.shoreclub.com/shore_club_skybar.asp

Rokbar Great, small old school rock bar (get it?). Very fun. www.rokbarmiami.com

Snatch/Suite Probably the hardest place to get into right now, but Suite (the VIP lounge) is worth it in my opinion. www.snatchmiami.com

Finally, The Raleigh Sunday Pool Party is practically church on South Beach. That’s your best bet to see and be seen. I’ve also heard good things about the Ritz Sunday Party, but haven’t been myself.

Good Luck!

Hey AG:

I%26#39;m flattered you%26#39;re borrowing so freely from my posts ;)

:))

CMG33140, I thank you as well in such case!

you rock, too.

This is a great reply - full of great possibilities for the early 30s crowd who still parties but maybe not like a 22 year old!! Just wanted to mark it so I can find it later (not going to South Beach for another month). Thanks!
