The Witching Hour


Gather your coven in the Living Room for a haunted Halloween celebration at a time when the powers of the witch are at their most potent.

Living Room - Witching Hour

Throw on a hooded cape, pack your scepter and prepare for an evening of supernatural pleasures where crystal balls reveal metaphysical mysteries and the unseen becomes seen. Tipple an intoxicating mix of specially crafted brews, tonics, and potions to ward off shadow energies, while dancing to a live band whose music will surely rouse the spirits. As in years past, you may stumble upon a clairvoyant tarot card reader during the festivities, who will reveal all that stands between you and the unknown.

FEATURED COCKTAIL

Elixir Gin & Tonic

Fun Fact: Gin and tonic was originally a medicinal tincture used by 19th-century British soldiers stationed in India to get their daily dose of quinine (an active ingredient in tonic) to prevent malaria. To make the drink more palatable soldiers began adding sugar and lime, and thus, one of the world’s most popular cocktails was born.


Faena serves up a killer Elixir Gin & Tonic with Monkey 47, a top-shelf handcrafted gin distilled in Germany’s Black Forest using traditional methods and garnishes from the garden.

“The Monkey 47 Gin and Tonic is a duo greater than the sum of its parts,” said Living Room bartender Joseph Restani.

“Thanks to their chemical makeup, one’s nose, mouth, and brain are delighted by the bright, botanical experience."

Where Fire and Flavor Ignite

"What makes Los Fuegos truly extraordinary is our commitment to the ancient art of cooking with fire,” explained Yassine Belkady, the restaurant’s manager. “We use no electricity whatsoever—just fire, wood ovens, and tradition” Everything has that distinctive char, those bold, nearly burnt flavors that taste almost primal. “When you dine here, you can literally smell the wood and rosemary in the air,” he added. The restaurant’s setting matches its culinary panache. By day, the veranda transforms into an airy ambience when its retractable roof opens to Miami’s brilliant skies. Guests enjoy lunch while overlooking the property’s stunning pool, creating what Belkady called “a completely different experience than any other hotel or restaurant in Miami.” 

Beneath the Tree of Life

Mornings here unfold slowly while guests sip on fresh-pressed juices—like the South Beach, a tropical elixir of coconut water, local citrus, mango, and strawberry, or a vitamin-rich Green Juice packed with spinach, kale, ginger, cucumber, celery and green apple. “The tranquility makes it really special,” noted Joshua Rodriguez, Director of Nightlife. “It’s a place where guests can grab a coffee, a light bite and relax or catch up on some emails.” A menu of delicious appetizers is great for snacking throughout the day, including crispy artichokes with sesame yogurt and sourdough breadcrumbs; prime rib empanadas with llajua sauce; and a vegan option of steamed veggie rice with sweet potato and broccoli. Come golden hour, the energy shifts. On weekends from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm, resident DJs set the mood as the bar transitions into a laidback sundowner haunt. The CopaCabana cocktail, a tropical indulgence of banana and apricot liqueur, coconut cream, allspice, and Bulleit Rye, is a guest favorite. “People order it because it’s served in a Faena-branded coconut, but it’s the taste that makes them request another one,” said Rodriguez.
