More About

Havana

Like any good Miamian, you probably have a healthy curiosity about and enjoyment of all things Cuban. We’re not talking just extra-strong coffee and kicked-up ham-and-cheese sandwiches. You’ve often wondered about son music, and during late nights on the couch, you’ve wished you could speak español fluently and flipped to Cubavision for something a little different. Lucky for you, the legendary Biltmore Hotel hosts a night when, according to them, “No passports are required.”

Every Tuesday night from 6:00 to 10:00, you can get your Cuba fix at Havana Nights at the Cascade Poolside Bar & Grill. The lush in you will enjoy half-off Bacardi, Havana Club, Dewar’s 12, and Grey Goose cocktails, while your cultural side will thrill to the spicy rhythms of DJ Jorge Castellanos. And if you’ve never been poolside at the Biltmore, tonight would be the perfect time to experience the property’s 150 beautiful acres, the largest hotel swimming pool in the nation, and a chic scene frequented by locals and out-of-towners alike. If it’s amazing on a regular day, imagine how it’ll look after a night of half-price imbibing.
