Sunset Sapphic at Palace on South Beach Brought the Girls, the Rooftop, and the Energy
With Sunset Sapphics now launched as a new monthly women’s event at Palace, the Ocean Drive icon is making a serious case for one of South Florida’s most exciting recurring lesbian nights.
March 23, 2026
Some nights have chemistry the second you walk in. Sunset Sapphics at Palace South Beach had that from the start.
I went to the March 21 edition of Sunset Sapphics, Palace’s recurring rooftop pool party for queer women in Miami, and the energy was there almost immediately. Hosted by queer influencer couple Zashia Santiago and Tay Tate, with music by DJ Sammii Blendz and sponsorships from Wet For Her and VDOM, the party took over the Palace Rooftop Pool Bar from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. and turned Ocean Drive into exactly the kind of women’s night you want Miami to deliver.
The rooftop was gorgeous, the weather did exactly what it needed to do, and the crowd felt ready in the best possible way. Not overly posed. Not trying too hard. Just genuinely ready to flirt, laugh, dance a little, and enjoy themselves. That made the whole night click almost immediately. It felt warm, social, playful, and just a little dangerous in a fun way. Exactly what a rooftop party like this should feel like.
There was something especially sexy about how natural the energy was. Nobody was manufacturing a moment because the moment was already there. People were talking, moving, circling the rooftop, locking eyes, laughing with their drinks in hand, and settling into the kind of mood that makes a night feel easy and magnetic all at once. It had a real spark. The kind you cannot fake and definitely cannot force.
A huge part of that came down to the music. DJ Sammii Blendz knew exactly how to hold the room without pushing it too far. The set kept the rooftop pulsing, but it never tipped into chaos. It was confident, smooth, and perfectly in tune with the night. Enough to make people move, enough to make people linger, and enough to keep that charged little current running through the crowd. Palace described the event as a rooftop pool party built around community, connection, and nightlife, and that balance really came through in the room.
One of the funniest and most unforgettable parts of the night was the dance contest, which gave the whole party an extra dose of personality. It was playful, cheeky, and just the right amount of wild. Contest winners were even handed sexy toys throughout the night, which pushed the whole thing into even flirtier territory and made the crowd even more into it. It gave the event that wink of mischief that took it from fun to fully memorable.
What made Sunset Sapphics at The Palace work so well was that it felt seductive without being try hard. It was playful, confident, and a little naughty, but it never felt overly packaged. It just felt like women were out, feeling good, looking hot, and actually enjoying the room they were in. In a city that is always trying to sell you a scene, that matters. This one did not need to sell it. The vibe was already there.
And honestly, the fact that it is recurring is a big part of why the night felt exciting. This was not just some one-off party people would talk about once and forget. It felt like the beginning of something people are actually going to start planning around. Palace is giving queer women a visible, intentional, genuinely fun night to come back to, and that kind of consistency matters.
A recurring women’s party with this kind of energy has real potential. It gives people a place to come back to. It gives the crowd something to anticipate. And it gives South Florida a recurring women’s night that feels hot, social, and alive instead of random or afterthought-level.
That is really why the night landed. Yes, it was sexy. Yes, it was playful. Yes, it had chemistry. But it also felt like it knew exactly who it was for. And when a party has that kind of clarity, people feel it immediately.
Sunset Sapphics at Palace South Beach was flirty, lively, and full of the kind of tension that makes a rooftop event actually fun. Between the music, the crowd, the playful contest, the sexy prizes, and all the charged little moments in between, it delivered the kind of night that felt easy to fall into and very hard to leave.
This was not just another night out. It was the kind of night that reminds you how good a rooftop, the right music, and the right women can feel when everything lands exactly the way it should.

Luli Fama celebrates its Paradise Found Cruise ’27 swimwear and resortwear collection with a luxury Miami launch at its Dadeland Mall boutique.
August 20, 2026
Miami swimwear favorite Luli Fama is stepping into Cruise ’27 with Paradise Found, a new swimwear and resortwear collection inspired by tropical escapes, exotic prints and effortless vacation glamour.
South Florida Insider has already taken a closer look at the Luli Fama Paradise Found collection, and it feels made for Miami.
The new Cruise ’27 collection combines the bold, body-confident swimwear Luli Fama is known for with elevated resort pieces designed to move effortlessly from the beach and pool to cocktails and dinner.
On Thursday, August 20, Luli Fama will celebrate Paradise Found with an exclusive evening at its newest Dadeland Mall boutique in Miami, complete with fashion, light bites, personalized surprises, and a luxe espresso martini bar.
Inside Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 Collection
Paradise Found is inspired by the feeling of discovering a hidden tropical retreat.
Think lush landscapes, warm golden hour light, exotic patterns, and silhouettes made for somewhere beautiful.
The collection features Luli Fama signatures, including flattering ruched details, seamless construction, adjustable fits, and statement swimwear, alongside an expanded selection of resortwear.
We especially love the pieces that blur the line between swim and ready-to-wear.
Flowing dresses, sleek coverups, and body-skimming silhouettes make it easy to transition from a sun-drenched afternoon to an evening out without losing that relaxed resort feeling.
It is sensual, polished, and unmistakably Miami.
Luli Fama Brings Luxury Resort Style to Miami
There is a reason Paradise Found feels so natural in South Florida.
In Miami, resortwear is not reserved for vacation.
A swimsuit can become part of an outfit. A coverup can take you to lunch. A flowing resort dress can carry you from an afternoon by the water straight into cocktails and dinner.
Luli Fama has always understood that lifestyle.
Paradise Found takes it a step further, creating a Cruise ’27 wardrobe that feels as appropriate for a tropical getaway as it does for a weekend in Miami.
The campaign captures that mood beautifully, pairing the collection with palms, lush greenery, tropical architecture and the kind of sun soaked setting that makes you want to extend your vacation indefinitely.
Paradise Found Comes to Luli Fama at Dadeland Mall
Luli Fama will bring the world of Paradise Found to life on Thursday, August 20 from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at its newest boutique at Dadeland Mall in Miami.
The intimate celebration will bring together invited guests, influencers, celebrities and media for an early look at Cruise ’27.
Luli Fama is also dressing invited guests in pieces from the brand, allowing the new collection to be experienced the way it was designed to be worn: in motion, styled and out for the evening.
Luli After Hours Espresso Martini Bar
Fashion is only part of the experience.
For the Paradise Found celebration, Luli Fama is introducing Luli After Hours, an Espresso Martini Bar inspired by the glamour of the collection.
Guests will be able to sip three specialty espresso martinis created for the evening.
The Luli Babe puts a polished spin on the classic espresso martini, while Golden Hour pairs salted caramel with edible gold shimmer. Miami After Dark takes a richer approach with chocolate hazelnut and a cocoa dust finish.
Along with cocktails, guests can expect light bites, curated details and a special personalized surprise.
The result feels less like a traditional retail event and more like checking into a private resort for the evening.
A Miami Swimwear Brand Celebrates at Home
For a brand with such a strong connection to South Florida, launching Paradise Found in Miami feels especially fitting.
Luli Fama has built its identity around colorful, confident swimwear and resort fashion with a distinctly tropical point of view.
Paradise Found carries that identity into Cruise ’27 while giving it a more elevated, escapist mood.
And with Luli Fama’s newest boutique now at Dadeland Mall, Miami shoppers have another destination to experience the brand in person.
After getting our own closer look at Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 collection, we can safely say the name fits.
Paradise has officially been found, and this time, it is in Miami.
