EXPERIENCE

1) Take an exclusive tour of the opulent and historic Casa Casuarina, formerly the Versace Mansion. The legendary 1930's mansion opens its doors and welcomes guests to experience the luxurious property. If the walls could talk, we're sure the stories they'd tell would be more than fascinating. Tours are offered Sunday-Wednesday, 9 a.m. till 6 p.m., and Thursday-Saturday from 9 a.m. till 10 p.m. Take advantage of the summer special of $35 per person, which includes a complimentary mimosa! Call for more information (We recommend you request Limor or Dana as your Tour Guides). (305)-672-6604.

SAVOR

4) After another fun-filled weekend of partying on the beach, take a break and head over to Brickell's Viceroy Hotel and recover with a well-deserved meal at their Mediterranean-inspired restaurant EOS. Located on the 15th floor of the Viceroy Hotel, the breathtaking views go hand-in-hand with the equally impressive quality of the food. For as low as $12, you can get an entire meal, unlimited mimosas or blood marys, and comp valet parking! To truly appreciate what the menu offers, go with a group and experiment a little by dining family-style. Afterwards, head upstairs to the ultra chic Club 50 Pool Party (Located on the 50th floor). With incredible expansive views of the city, catch some rays and a cool breeze poolside. Sundays don't get better than this. Brunch is from 11 a.m. till 2 p.m. Sundays, and the Pool Party is from 12-5 p.m. 485 Brickell Ave, (305)-503-4400. Reservations Strongly Suggested.
