From South Beach to Downtown Miami it is all bustling, there is never a dry night so to say. So here's my quick fire review of places to hit up.
Club Set
If you have money to blow and the chance to bump into some celebrities then this is the place. Drinks may cost you a small fortune but with the right DJ you'll be turning up all night long to some good hip-hop. Sound system and bass is solid enough to pump your heart out of your chest. Make sure you grab a promoter to get you in or else you might be standing around for a while.
Mangos
Located on Ocean Drive. Never short of Latinos and Spanish music, apparently good for everyday of the week although I cannot confirm this. Guaranteed that you will dance the night away and cheap by definition. The crowd can be rather mixed in age but that never spoils the fun.
Bodega
You can find this place hidden behind a taco/burrito store. By day a taco stand, by night a hidden away gem of a bar. It's rather small once you get in with sofas littered about and the random pool table, however given the right time of night and music you will turn up the beat. Best of all, once you are done dancing you can grab a taco to go.
Purdy Lounge
This is one I never quite showed up to on the right day. Apparently only good on Mondays but you will really turn up here. As their saying goes: No Attitude... No Cover... No Bullshit. Its true.
Blackbird Ordinary
Now this is a must go. You walk in and the staff literally shake your hand and greet you. You see an awesome bar room where you can sit down and eat or stand up and dance away. If you head out back they have a massive space where you have the DJ and a few outside bars. Music is awesome playing a mixture of hip hop and pop. Drinks are a bit pricey however affordable. Try not to open a bar tab because you will get carried away.
Wood Tavern
If you want hip hop and cheap. Located in Wynwood this is your place to go. I mean a shot of JD and a Stella is $6, if that is expensive then I don't know what to say. Similar to Blackbird it has an inside bar space but a massive outdoor dance area with a bigger bar. The security here is friendly along with everyone inside.

Personally I enjoyed this place. The DJ played consistent hip hop track after track on point. Drinks here were cheap too. The queue to get in is rather long however if you have some lady friends with you just hop over security and they will late you in. The place is a little hood but you do feel safe. Just get ready to turn up and rave hard. And once you're done you can pop across the road for some McDonald's.
A sad regret was I didn't get the chance at a pool party. Rumour has it these are just crazy and you'll have a blast of a time.
