If you ask any local or any tourist to name 3 bars in the heart of South Beach, the Clevelander would definitely be on that list. And there are so many reasons for that. Most bars don't include an outdoor pool on the beach, and that's just one of the perks that makes the Clevelander one of the most popular destinations on Ocean Drive. The raucous and splashy atmosphere is quintessential South Beach, and the crowd makes it feel like Spring Break all summer long. Don't worry about a dress code; bathing suits and flip-flops are the order of the day even in December. The music runs the gamut, from rock to dance, and live music or DJs are sometimes featured.

Miami Local Expert
- Gay Clubs: "Keep checking Palace Bar's Facebook page for updates on where their new home will be, outside of the Clevelander!"
- Hotel Bars: "Drinking at the Clevelander isn't like going to your usual hotel lobby bar. Bring your bikini and a need to party."
- Best for Gay Clubs Because: Palace Bar was one of Miami's hottest LGBT spots, and the Clevelander is their temporary home for the drag-centric Sunday Sunset T-Dance.
- Best for Hotel Bars Because: Seeing as the Clevelander Bar is really composed of multiple pool-side bars serving up Miami-inspired cocktails all day and night, we couldn't leave it out.
