Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome Hotel – Hotel Review
Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome’s grand facade that hugs the Piazza della Repubblica merely hints at the 21st-century opulence within. Hiding a luxurious spa that draws inspiration from the hotel’s ancient origins, as well as soothing, soundproof suites with sunny rooftop terraces, decadent fine dining and outstanding customer service, this exemplary example of Roman grandeur is located within a stone’s throw of some of the city’s most iconic destinations. Read on for the full review.
After being acquired by the Anantara group in late 2021, the Palazzo Naiadi Rome – which sits atop the ancient ruins of the Baths of Diocletian and overlooks the Fountain of the Naiads – has since undergone extensive renovations and unveiled two brand-new restaurants, INEO, and SEEN by Olivier, alongside a recently revamped rooftop terrace. The style is in keeping with the city’s architectural extravagance, with touches of 19th-century travertine marble under Murano glass chandeliers. The results are stunning, securing the Anantara Palazzo Naiadi’s standing as one of the grandest hotels in Rome.
Where is Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome Hotel?
The hotel is conveniently situated just a short walk from Rome’s Termini rail station, providing easy access to wider Italy and Rome’s Fiumicino international airport (a direct train takes just over half an hour). Other transport links such as the metro, buses and taxis are also footsteps away. The Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri, a 16th-century church built within some of the ruined remains of the Baths of Diocletian, sits directly opposite the hotel.
What’s near Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome Hotel?
The Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps are both roughly a 20-minute stroll along the sampietrini, the age-smoothed basalt blocks that run along Rome’s historical centre. The Vatican is a little further afield at about a 15-minute taxi ride, while those looking to explore the Eternal City’s less-trodden corners might be enticed by bohemian neighbourhood Monti, famed for its narrow cobbled streets, gastronomical delights and vintage shops, which is a 15-minute walk towards the Colosseum.
With their soothing neutral tones, fluffy bathrobes, extensive pillow menus, hypoallergenic bed linen (upon request) and travertine marble bathrooms, all the rooms within the Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome provide a calm and peaceful sanctuary from the cheerful bustle of central Rome.
History buffs might be charmed by the idea of staying in a Premium Room, some of which are situated in the Clementino wing, which once housed grain for the city (original beams intact), as commissioned by the Vatican in 1705. For city views, opt for the Premium Panorama View Room; its fourth-floor vantage point gives unrivalled views overlooking the Fountain of the Naiads, the Baths of Diocletian and the rooftops beyond.
There are three Executive Suites, which come with a treadmill, steam bath or private rooftop terrace and jacuzzi, while the two Presidential Suites offer a large dining area, pantry and kitchenette, which would work well for those planning on entertaining (or blowing the budget) during their stay. For families, the Presidential Suite can be converted into a two-bed abode and can also be adjoined to a Premium Room, should you require the extra space.
Restaurants and bars
As part of the recent refurbishments, the new INEO restaurant has opened under the helm of Heros De Agostinis, where the menu is a celebration of his Roman heritage and extensive international travel, resulting in dishes such as spaghetti cooked in rabbit gravy and Sicilian prawn and mandarin ceviche.
Also new is SEEN by Olivier, a Mediterranean fine-dining restaurant by Olivier de Costa, who promises to take diners on a gastronomic journey through Italy to Brazil via Japan. As the sun dips below the horizon, the attached bar (open all-year around) is a great spot to enjoy an after-dinner grappa while being soothed by melodic beats from the resident DJ.
Travel for work
All rooms feature a desk and enjoy free and fast wi-fi. You don’t need to down tools at mealtimes either: the 24-hour room service will keep you sustained, however late into the night you toil. Dry-cleaning and laundry services are available, while the Lobby Bar provides an excellent setting for an informal meeting over a pre-dinner Campari. Of course, nothing can sharpen your perspective quite like gazing into hidden relics of ancient Rome, though; the tempered-glass flooring in the 471 square metres of meeting space in the basement gives a rare glimpse of some of the ruins of the Baths of Diocletian, unearthed during the hotel’s construction in the 1880s.
Spa and pool
An expansive (and recently revamped) rooftop pool – a rarity for Rome – is open between March and September, providing panoramic views of the Italian skyline and an opportunity to cool off. Elsewhere, the fitness centre is open 24 hours daily and is equipped with a full suite of Technogym machines and free weights (for a helping hand, yoga instructors and personal trainers are also available upon request).
It would be sacrilege to leave Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome without experiencing one of the spa’s signature treatments. After all, who better to draw inspiration from the Roman Empire’s luxurious bathing techniques than a hotel built upon the ancient remains of one? A Diocletian Ritual uses ancient ingredients such as olive oil and sea salt to provide a cleansing mud wrap, while honeymooners might be enticed by the Spa For Two, an indulgent three-hour treatment which includes a peel, massage and soak in the oriental tub, accompanied, naturally, by champagne and strawberries.
What you need to know
Skip the treadmill and instead join a professional runner on a running tour through some of the city’s boat iconic sights; you’ll pass the beautiful Villa Borghese, the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain on your route. If that all sounds a bit too arduous, the Eat, Pray & Love Signature Experience includes three hours of meandering through the streets of Rome while a knowledgeable guide steers you through the city’s oldest districts and hidden gems. If that still sounds like hard work, you can travel the tour by Mercedes E Class (note: the whole experience must be booked at least 48 hours in advance).

Beautiful hotel. Staff was polite and friendly. The head bartender bent over backwards to serve us. Front desk was anxious to serve us. It's a little weird when you first get there. You need to get on the elevator and go to third floor to check in, the doorman could be a little friendlier and guide guests instead of being a confusing first experience after a long flight.

Honestly this was such a wonderful trip. I had tons of fun and we all enjoyed it very much. The captain was also very helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to take some time out on the water. Absolutely the way to go!
We had such a great experience! We booked this for a bachelorette party and everyone had a great time. Our captain, Sonny, knew exactly where to take us and what a group like ours would want. We had the best time and I would recommend this to anyone looking for a boating activity in SD!
We are so happy we booked with Captain John and the Bella Luna for my husband's surprise 50th birthday party. Captain John was extremely accommodating and informative. The boat offers multiple areas for socializing-plenty of shade and sun opportunities with different vistas from each area. It was a wonderful tour around the bay and we all really enjoyed seeing the sea lions perch! We would definitely do it again and highly recommend it to people looking for an unusual, memorable and relaxing event site! Thank you Mike and Captain John for everything.
Captain John hosted us for a birthday party and we had so much fun! Our group was incredibly satisfied with the space the boat has, how friendly and fun the crew was, and how they accommodated our party. Thank you John for a great day!
We went out with Captain Sonny for a great day in Glorietta Bay. Everything was perfect - communication was on point and he provided a cooler for us and played some great music. Definitely a great time for a good price!
Captain John was great! He was very funny, extremely accommodating, and an overall great guy! Would highly recommend booking a party on this yacht and will definitely do so again in the future!

Adobe house - 2 Bedrooms & 1 Bath; Kiva fireplace; Private front & back yards
Richard A Woodruff
What makes this House unique
Experience the real charm of Santa Fe by living in a quiet residential neighborhood within easy walking distance of the Plaza, Railyard, Farmer's Market and many fine restaurants and shops. Casa Carolina is an authentic adobe home and retains all the character of its origins.
Please consider the following guidelines when booking this property:
100% refund if canceled at least 60 days before arrival date.
Our stay in Santa Fe
Overall we found the property a good value. The kitchen was well equipped, good pots and pans, silverware, dishes and appliances. The plastic tumblers should be replaced. There was plenty of space in the dinning and living areas allowing us to unwind after a long day of visiting shops, museums and galleries. Walking to downtown was easy and enjoyable. The access to the square and surrounding restaurants was excellent. Parking on the street was no problem. We also enjoyed the beautiful gardens surrounding the house. We utilized the back patio for grilling and evening cocktails. What kept us from giving a higher star rating are easy fixes: upgrading the linen and towels (matching towels and newer sheets), replacing the caulking around the tub would add to a sense of cleanliness. Replacing the broken bench or just removing it would help with first impressions. That is a beautiful garden!
Overall it is a charming cottage w/south western charm on a quiet street convenient everything.
Thank you so much for your review and, of course, we will check on your comments to see how we can improve. Just to point out, we actually intentionally have mis-matched towel colors - part of eclectic Santa Fe but we will further think on it. Regarding the bench, we always considered it decorative garden item - not meant to be totally functional - its 70 years old. But, perhaps we will remove it as you suggest - it is a lovely garden.
Of course we will take care of the grouting and thank you for pointing it out.
We hope to have you back for your next trip to Santa Fe. All the best, Richard
Great place and location!
The neighborhood is very quiet yet in walking distance to everything.... would stay again when I’m back in this area.
This property is perfect for two people, a couple, or two friends .
The location is also perfect walking distance to old town.
Best of all is the patio area with outside kiva = super!
The old thing I found odd is i was asked to strip the sheets and load, start the washing machine. This, after paying a cleaning fee. Other than this I found they property top marks and would definitely stay here again.
Thank you so much for your 5 star review and for recommending Casa Carolina. The location is, as you say, wonderful. I wanted to clarify just a small point, we do not request our guests to start the washing machine as all our sheets and towels are professionally cleaned offsite. However, we do request that the dishwasher is loaded and perhaps started. They take generally two hours to complete and having them already started makes it a bit better for our housekeeping staff.
We hope you visit Santa Fe once more and do think of our homes. All the best, Richard
May in Santa Fe
Great location, clean.
A wonderful location, a property with historic charm and it is an easy walk to restaurants
So glad to have visited Sante Fe and to stay at this casita.
Cozy and Delightful!
What a great place to relax at the end of a day of site-seeing! It was cozy, nicely appointed and clean. It’s an easy walk to the Plaza and access to other points of interest. As described, the private parking space is tight and the narrow street makes maneuvering a challenge but we were able to fit a mid-size car. Richard was a fabulous host and I would stay there again in a heartbeat!
Casa Carolina is located at 117 Quintana Street in the center of old Santa Fe. The street is a quiet narrow dead end street with no through traffic. There is ample parking on the street in the front of Casa Carolina as well as parking for one small car in the driveway. In one direction you can walk to a nice coffee spot, Better Day, the grocery co-op and yoga studio - Thrive; and in the other direction is the Plaza and bookstores and restaurants galore. Not to mention a third direction towards the ever-growing railyard district, farmers market and, one of the best restaurant in Santa Fe, Joseph's.

Departure cocktails and mix-and-match choices are common features of premium cabin dining. Delta Air Lines is extending those concepts to its economy class passengers starting this November in a major shake-up for its meal service.
This is about investing in every single customer who chooses Delta, no matter where they sit on the plane. The thoughtful touches we’re investing in throughout the new Main Cabin experience were designed by flight attendants with one goal in mind — delivering an exceptional experience that our customers will rave about and one that our team, the best in the business, is proud to deliver.– Allison Ausband, Delta’s Senior Vice President. — In-Flight Service
The upgraded experience will start before passengers even begin boarding. The lead flight attendant will greet passengers in the gate area prior to boarding and then again at the door of the aircraft to welcome them on board. Once in flight the new service features a “Welcome Aboard” cocktail and hot towel service prior to the meal. The carrier is also adjusting the overall meal service to be a more “bistro-style” offering. This is not a paid dining upgrade as bistro-on-board sometimes denotes, but a shift in the overall meal service included with passengers’ tickets.
Passengers will have a printed menu from which they can choose a “mix and match” of upgraded appetizers and main courses. Portion sizes will be larger and recipes updated to reflect the meals offered in the Delta One business class cabin. Dessert will be served as a separate course from the main meal tray service.
Shortly before arrival passengers will see a second hot towel service and receive Fond Farewell Chocolates “as a token of gratitude for flying Delta.”
The carrier tested the new program extensively over the past year on its route between Portland, Oregon and Tokyo-Narita. Design of the effort was led by a team of 24 flight attendants, with more than 1,800 passenger surveys included in the feedback loop.
The idea behind the service is not just about the meals. History has shown that while passengers claim to care about on-board dining they rarely will go out of their way to book for such, especially if fares go up as a result. That’s why Delta’s new service focuses on more than just the food. Indeed, the new product is “designed to delight and create ‘wow’ moments” for passengers. Delivering that personal tough and creating that bond can drive booking patterns, similar to the way frequent flyer loyalty schemes do.
The new service launches in November on international flights scheduled for 6.5 hours or longer, plus select shorter international flights where Delta One or Delta Premium Select is offered.

The authorities of Barcelona, which is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Europe, decided to increase the tourist tax.
According to tourist. delfi, this will take place over two years, with the first increase scheduled for April 1, 2023. After this date, visitors to the city will have to pay an additional fee of 2.75 euros per night instead of 1.75 euros. The second increase will take place from April 1, 2024, when the fee will rise to €3.25.
It is worth noting that in addition to the tourist tax mentioned above, which is paid to the city budget, tourists who currently come to Barcelona must also pay an additional tax to the regional budget, the amount of which varies depending on the type of accommodation and is charged only to official tourist accommodation.
Yes, now for guests who rent accommodation, for example, on Airbnb, the tax per night is 4 euros, of which 2.25 euros go to the region’s budget and 1.75 euros to the city budget. Those staying in a five-star hotel also pay €1.75 to the city, and the regional tax increases to €3.50. Cruise ship passengers spending more than 12 hours in the city pay €3 to the region and €1.75 to the city. This means that from April 2024, for example, five-star hotel guests will pay €6.75 per night per person.
Another Spanish city – Valencia – will soon introduce a tax for tourists who live in all types of housing. It will enter into force in late 2023 or early 2024. Visitors will have to pay from 50 cents to 2 euros per night, depending on the accommodation they choose, for a period of up to 7 nights.
As reported by DIP, it was previously known that the plans of the Thai authorities to collect a tourist tax of 300 baht (about 10 US dollars) from June 2023 on travelers arriving in the country by airplanes.

Reviews for this host's other properties
Very nice apartment, large and well restored. Reliable and competent organization. However, the proximity of a bar restaurant that ends at 4am, creates noise incompatible with a good sleep.
Très bel appartement, vaste et bien restauré.
Organisation fiable et compétente.
Toutefois, la proximité d'un bar restaurant qui termine à 4h du matin, crée des nuisances sonores incompatibles avec un bon sommeil.
Wounderful organisation, flat clean and good situate. Thanks

Very well located, 1 min from the famous Old Town square and the shopping district. The apartment is very nice, just as shown. The owner called me at my arrival at the airport and helped me find the check-in place. I stayed only for a night and everything was perfect. They also offer to take you from the airport, which I recommend. I decided to find my way myself and ended up paying much more for a taxi.

We stayed here initially for 3 nights, and then a further night at the end of our trip over Easter and would highly recommend it. It's only a short walk from the Flybus terminal and an even shorter walk to the main street at the centre of Reykjavik.
We had requested a double room with a balcony but on arrival, it had been given away so they upgraded us to a studio instead. This was perfect as it has a small kitchen which is great for storing food like snacks etc for a few days. On our last night, we had a standard double. It's cosy but perfectly fine. In both rooms, there are single beds which you can push together, (and which were extremely comfortable in the studio) and the bathroom is essentially a very "compact" ensuite. We were facing the street but there's double-glazing so noise wasn't really an issue. The standard room was on the ground floor though and didn't have thick enough curtains so the light may wake you early. The blinds in the studio on the upper floor meant this wasn't a problem.
The staff were very friendly and the breakfast was superb. They have a computer you can use for free in reception but also have free wireless (or some rooms need a connection) using a Vodafone hotspot with no limits. We used our laptop and it was the same speed, if not faster, than at home. If wireless isn't available and you need a cord, you can borrow one from reception for KR1,000. There are tvs in the room but in the studio the reception was terrible and you could only get one channel. In the standard room, the reception was almost perfect and there were a few channels so I guess it just depends what you get.
There's also offstreet parking if needed and if full, plenty of onstreet parking. Basically, I doubt you can beat the price, location and general feeling of this fantastic B&B.

Across the street from Hallgrims church and the beautiful sculpture garden of The National Einar Jensson Gallery. The Flybus from Keflavik airport stops right at our doorstep.

Gateway to the Americas.
Rooms From €119 (Per Room)
Miami may be the retirement capital of the United States, but there is nothing old fashioned about this bright, brash playground city that shines under the sunny Florida skies. This coastal city was a sleepy holiday town until the 1920s, when the 'in crowd' decided to make it their own. The town bloomed into a fun seaside capital and was blessed with a legacy of Art Deco architecture, particularly along South Beach, which has been carefully preserved. During World War II the forces came to town when Miami was an important military base. Today, apart from being a favourite holiday Mecca and sunny spot for retirees, it is also the gateway to the Caribbean and Latin America.
Miami's large Cuban community add to the atmosphere in the sultry neighbourhood of Little Havana. Trendsetters hang out in Coconut Grove, while sunlovers strew the miles of white sandy beaches. For families there are entertaining attractions like the Seaquarium and Metrozoo. The nightlife is sophisticated and varied. The city also gives easy access to Florida's popular Gold Coast resorts and attractions, as well as the natural wonder of the Florida Everglades.
No wonder Miami is America's favourite holiday destination and the hub of a vibrant cruise ship industry, its port jammed constantly with sleek passenger liners. North of the city, miles of beautiful sandy beaches of the Gold Coast are hemmed in by southeast Florida's major tourist resorts: Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pompano Beach and Palm Beach.

One of the main air travel hubs in the US, Miami International Airport is located eight miles (13km) northwest of central Miami. The main gateway to Florida's wildly popular tourist attractions, nearly 36 million people come in on flights to Miami International Airport each year, making it the 28th busiest airport in the world.
The semicircular terminal at Miami International Airport has one linear concourse (Concourse D) and five pier-shaped concourses (Concourses E - J). Baggage claim and ground transportation take up Level 1, while ticketing, shops and restaurants, and concourse access make up Level 2. The airport is unfortunately not well-signed, and many staff members speak only Spanish, meaning it can be easy to get lost. When combined with chaotic procedures at baggage claim and long queues at customs, the situation at Miami International requires passengers to allow plenty of time when making connections.
Flights to Miami International Airport come in from all over the world, including major international hubs like Cancun, Buenos Aires, Berlin, Toronto, Paris, seattle, Rome, New York, São Paulo, Amsterdam, Zurich, Moscow and Lisbon.
Location The airport is located nine miles (15km) west of central Miami.
Getting to the city The airport is well connected to the greater Miami area by numerous services offered by the Miami-Dade Transit Department. These include the scheduled, local Metrobus (the bus station is on Level 1 of Concourse E); a mass-transit Metrorail system; a fixed rail system designated specifically for downtown Miami and Brickell; and the TriRail commuter train, reaching Broward and Palm Beach Counties from the Airport Station to the east of the airport on NW 21st Street. Taxis and shuttles are available from the arrivals level, outside the baggage claim areas. Car rental agents operate outside the terminal building and can be reached on a shuttle service.
Time GMT -5 (GMT -4 from March to November).

The mainstay of the Miami public transport system is the Metrobus; however, the network is large, and it takes some time to get used to. The fare is standard to any destination. If you need to change buses, ask for a transfer when buying your ticket, which costs extra. There is also an elevated train service called the Metrorail, which connects North and South Miami with stations at one mile intervals, and an elevated monorail, the Metromover, which offers great views of downtown Miami and Biscayne Bay and connects with buses and trains. Most visitors, however, take taxis or hire a car. This can be more convenient, as the city is sprawled out over a large area. To rent a car, the driver must be over 21, have a valid credit card and, if from abroad, hold a passport and English language driving license. Local drivers can be aggressive.
This lively city has more to it than Miami Vice or Horatio's crime scenes in CSI. With stunning white sand beaches, trendy shopping malls and a variety of both cultural and historic sites, Miami offers a wealth of things to see and do; save money and avoid queues with the Go Miami Card, available throughout the city.
Antique lovers should visit the Vizcaya Villa, built in the Italian Renaissance style in 1916. The Monastery of St. Bernard de Clairvaux is the oldest building in the Western Hemisphere; definitely a 'must see' for history buffs. A romantic, cultural attraction is Coral Castle, which was apparently hand-carved by a man experiencing unrequited love. Famous for its marine life, Miami's Seaquarium is the place to spend time indulging aquatic curiosity. Also worth exploring, Jungle Island has an exciting array of wildlife, from parrots and macaws to crocodiles and penguins.
At the Miami Science Museum, visitors could run into a few aliens! And collections of rare natural history specimens… Don't be put off by the exterior of Miami-Dade Cultural Centre; it houses a plethora of interesting artistic and historic exhibits, and the Miami Art Museum. Another collection of art and design, depicting popular culture from 1885 to 1945, is on display at the Wolfsonian Museum.
This is all made possible by sunny skies and ample public transport, but avoid hurricane season (June to November) and the crowds of spring break in March. While in vibrant Miami, with so many great sightseeing and cultural attractions, there won't actually be time to catch those TV shows!
Sunny Miami is a great holiday destination for families with kids. This exciting city offers a vast number of attractions and activities for children, many of which parents will enjoy too! From museums to parks and beaches, there is no shortage of places to take kids while on holiday in Miami.
Miami favourites for kids include the outer-space exhibits at the Miami Science Museum, as well as the entertaining killer whale performances at Seaquarium. Children also love seeing Jungle Island's exotic parrots, crocodiles and penguins. And that's just the beginning...
Summer tends to be a bit too warm and stormy for kids on holiday in Miami; most families prefer to go there in winter when the temperatures are a bit more comfortable, and off-season rates for accommodation and attractions are available.
While Miami may not have too many iconic souvenirs for tourists to work into their budgets, it sure does have a lot to offer the discerning shopper!
A pedestrian promenade lined with palm trees and colourful art deco buildings… doesn't sound like a shopping mall does it? But that's Miami's Lincoln Road Mall, also home to big name labels like G.A.P and Banana Republic. For another 'open mall' experience, The Falls not only has all the usual shops but also a fantastic seating area near the waterfall.
For elite shopping, few places measure up to Bal Harbour Shops, with stores include Tiffany & Co, Prada and Saks Fifth Avenue. Miracle Mile is one of Miami's top shopping locations, hosting over 170 upscale shops and 40 gourmet restaurants within walking distance of each other.
On the waterfront, Bayside Marketplace offers a variety of shops, restaurant and entertainment just moments from downtown Miami. Espanola Way is a quirky, amiable street in Miami Beach filled with stalls selling local arts and crafts on weekends. U.S. 1 Discount Mall is an air-conditioned flea market in Cutler Bay with over 200 vendors ready to satisfy all consumer desires, from belly piercing to tailoring.
Sales Tax of 7% is built into purchase prices; as sales taxes are set at state level, there is no way to obtain a refund from the federal government for non-US visitors. With something for everyone, and then some, Miami is a great city to blow a big wad of holiday cash in.
Miami is particularly well known for its Cuban restaurants and the city's cuisine is predominantly floribbean (a combination of Latin, American and Caribbean). Eateries include everything from steakhouses and cafés to Italian, Oriental and Middle Eastern restaurants. South Beach and Coconut Grove have a thriving cafe society, and tourists will find plenty of sidewalk seating to people-watch as they linger over lunch.
The most common complaint about restaurants in Miami is that mid-range eateries are hard to come by. Food in Miami is either very cheap or very expensive. However, with new venues opening constantly, there is always something new to sample. Meals for under $10 are plentiful in Little Havana, while South Beach has a collection of high-end restaurants.
A fun way to dine out in Miami is by sampling the fare offered by food trucks. These mobile eateries offer excellent (and cheap) food, the challenge though is figuring out where they are! A few of the most popular, including gastroPod Mobile Gourmet, Latin Burger and Taco, and Feverish Ice Cream, have twitter accounts to keep hungry customers updated as to their locations.
Miami's nightlife is hot! The South Beach streets pump with clubs and bars, and there's plenty of partying and live music in the Design District area. Downtown Miami hosts a few trendy venues and Coconut Grove is also a popular party zone. With everything from cocktails and comedy shows to lounges and nightclubs, one night in Miami would never be long enough.
Visitors to Miami might like to start their evening at one of the many cocktail bars, or perhaps the Dan Marino sports bar and restaurant. Visit Greater Miami for flamenco or cabaret shows, or even a drag show! There are also various comedy performances out there, including stand-up, sketch and improvisational comedies.
Miami dance clubs and lounges tend to offer a sultry Latin beat, while nightclub music ranges from Afro-Cuban or rumba rap to indie rock and electro-pop. These clubs are prevalent in downtown Miami and Little Havana, as well as west of the Bay area. Mansions and SET in Miami beach are two of the trendiest clubs, or just go club-hopping along Ocean Drive.
