Modern Luxury · City roundup
A broad survey of Miami dining and social clubs. Some opening language refers to older plans, so the roundup is contextual reading rather than a current operating-status directory.
Read at Modern Luxury →Our discussions compare the published perspectives. Founder interviews, hotel reviews, institutional histories and club-produced archives are identified separately. Each source retains its original date; some publishers require a subscription.
Soho Beach HouseOur reading
Condé Nast Traveler’s review adds an account of Soho Beach House’s Art Deco setting. Its hotel perspective helps explain the visual appeal, while current Soho House rules establish member access. We would compare the beach location with the travel and social habits that would bring you here regularly.
Condé Nast Traveler · Hotel review
The hotel review focuses on the property’s Art Deco setting and interiors. Hotel observations should be read separately from club membership rights.
Read at Condé Nast Traveler →Miami Pool HouseOur reading
Vogue México’s 2023 account describes Miami Pool House’s debut through an event involving the publication and Castañer. It is useful launch history with a disclosed participant’s perspective. The choice between this house and a coastal house should start with where and how you expect to spend time.
Vogue México y Latinoamérica · Launch-event reporting
Miguel Vicencio describes the Miami Pool House debut and an event involving Vogue and Castañer. The Spanish-language report supplies launch history; Vogue participated in the event it describes.

ZZ’s ClubOur reading
Haute Living’s 2021 report introduces ZZ’s through Japanese dining and its upstairs lounge. That gives the Miami concept its own history, rather than treating it as interchangeable with New York. For a food-focused applicant, the meaningful test is whether the current booking and dining arrangements justify repeat visits.
Haute Living · Independent reporting
Adrienne Faurote’s roundup describes ZZ’s Japanese dining and upstairs lounge at its Miami opening. It supplies an early account of the concept, rather than current menus or admission terms.

The MooreOur reading
FOUND Miami’s first-person review distinguishes the hotel, private rooms and workspace. PAPER supplies a separate record of its own Art Week rooftop party in 2025. Together they show how a club can participate in a city’s cultural calendar; neither establishes that a particular party will recur or admit all members.
FOUND Miami · First-person hotel review
Shayne Benowitz describes a stay at The Moore and the relationship between its hotel, club rooms and workspace. The reviewer’s hotel access and historical rates do not establish the rights of every membership category.
Read at FOUND Miami →PAPER · Publisher-hosted event report
PAPER recounts its own Kiehl’s party at The Moore during Miami Art Week 2025, marking the rooftop’s opening. This publisher-hosted event is a dated example of programming, not confirmation of a 2026 edition.

Casa TuaOur reading
World Red Eye’s interview lets Miky Grendene explain the origins of Casa Tua’s membership model. His emphasis on familiarity and personal service helps readers understand the intended experience. As a founder’s account, it describes the ambition; a tour and current terms help you assess how it fits your own use.
World Red Eye · Founder interview
In a World Red Eye interview, Miky Grendene describes how a popular upstairs lounge developed into a membership community. His account emphasizes family involvement and personal service; it represents the founder’s perspective.

Faena RoseOur reading
Ocean Home’s historical overview identifies the art-and-culture focus. Faena’s own 2024 journal gives concrete past examples, including talks and a documentary discussion. Our reading is that programming deserves as much attention as the physical setting. Use the current member calendar to assess frequency and subjects.
Ocean Home · Independent reporting
Bill Springer’s 2018 overview identifies art and cultural programming as Faena Rose’s defining idea. Its descriptions of privileges are historical and should be checked against current membership information.
Read at Ocean Home →Faena Journal · Club-produced programming archive
Faena’s own journal records past talks, a documentary discussion and culinary events. It is a club-produced programming archive, useful for understanding the range of experiences rather than independent evaluation.

MM Members ClubOur reading
Haute Living’s interview with Marine Galy explains MM through the operator’s view of referrals, dining and events. The useful question is how those privileges work in practice at the venues you would use. A committee process is a published route to consideration, not a numerical probability of admission.
Haute Living · Operator interview
Adrienne Faurote interviews Riviera Dining Group’s Marine Galy about MM’s referral and committee process, dining privileges and programming. These are the operator’s statements in a 2023 interview, rather than independently measured acceptance odds.

Carillon Spa & Beach MembershipOur reading
Carillon’s official page describes fitness, thermal hydrotherapy, pool and beach access under two plans. This is a wellness-and-leisure proposition to assess by frequency of use. Compare included services, credits and guest passes with the services you would actually buy; the provider’s wellness language is not evidence of a medical outcome.
Axios Miami · Local spa reporting
Historical spa visit; expired offers.
Read at Axios Miami →Carillon Miami · Official membership information
The resort lists fitness, hydrotherapy, pool and beach access under its Signature and Elite plans. This is official membership information; availability, exclusions and extra charges remain subject to the agreement.

Fisher Island ClubOur reading
Condé Nast Traveler’s hotel review explains the island setting from a visitor’s perspective. The official membership page separately makes property ownership the route to equity membership. That eligibility distinction comes before comparing amenities: a memorable stay does not itself make someone eligible for the equity program.
Condé Nast Traveler · Hotel review
Paul Oswell’s hotel review describes the island setting, Vanderbilt-era property and leisure amenities. It offers a visitor’s perspective, rather than a guide to equity membership eligibility.
Read at Condé Nast Traveler →Fisher Island Club · Official membership information
The club’s own page identifies property ownership as the route to equity membership. It distinguishes membership privileges from a hotel stay.
Read at Fisher Island Club →Short summaries and original commentary by The Circuit Report. Follow the credited links to the original publishers. Historical prices, opening forecasts and reported guest visits are not current membership guarantees.
