The Bar/Lounge at SLS South Beach

"The 140-room property features direct beach access, two large pools, two high-profile restaurants, two bars, and a great address on swank Collins Avenue"

"Katsuya delivers sleek Japanese, and out back the social scene snaps, crackles, and pops at a bar, two pool decks, and Hyde Beach, which serves lunch but turns into a nightlife must when the sun goes down"

"-Tropez-style poolside day lounge, is a hit"

"The hotel is also home to an extension of Los Angeles and Las Vegas’s Hyde Lounges --- Hyde Beach, an 8,000-square-foot day- and nightclub space featuring indoor and outdoor lounge areas, colorful cocktails prepared by a team of mixologists and cuisine by José Andres"

"Back outside, Hyde Beach is a laid-back, surf-shack-inspired lounge featuring bottle service and guest DJs"

"Standard are safes, minibars, phones, flat-screen TVs, MP3 players, brisk air-conditioning, and baths with similarly varying proportions, hair dryers, robes and esteemed toiletry kits"

"Hedonists can lounge on exaggerated chaises longues, bathe in egg-shaped tubs or, ahem, put on a show for the mirror on the ceiling"
