The cocktails lean citrusy and fresh—perfect for a breezy night catching up with friends or just soaking up the scene.
Watr at 1 Hotel | Rooftop Zen
Oceanfront tranquility meets roof-top luxury at Watr. Perched above the 1 Hotel South Beach, this is a secret retreat. With the infinity pool, the warm lighting, and the eco-chic decor, it’s perfect for anyone who needs to unwind and enjoy the view. Get something light, sit back, and let the night unravel.
Sugar | A Sky-High Secret
Step off the elevator and into another world. Sugar, hiding on the 40th floor of EAST Miami in Brickell, envelops you in verdant greenery and breathtaking views that are almost otherworldly. With Asian-inspired drinks and bite-sized morsels, it’s where you come to feel both on top of the city and totally hidden away.
The Rooftop at Esmé | Vintage Meets Vibe
