AN OVERGROWN TROPICAL ROOFTOP BAR & GARDEN IN MIAMI
A rooftop bar and restaurant above the streets of Little Havana, Terras feels like it grew into place. The menu takes cues from the street foods of Latin America, with herbs and spices pulled from the rooftop garden and cocktails made with house-infused tinctures and syrups. The space is casual but layered—lush greenery, mismatched tiles, and skyline views that shift with the time of day. Locals stop by for a drink and stay for the weekly music programming, where Latin rhythms and laid-back disco carry into the night. Voted Miami’s Best Rooftop Bar by The Infatuation, Terras has become a neighborhood fixture without ever needing to be one.

Create a food-and-beverage destination in Little Havana that feels natural to the neighborhood while driving net operating income and increasing the average daily rate for Life House Little Havana. The challenge was to build something locals would come back to—knowing that if it resonated with the community, travelers would follow.

Rather than over-designing a rooftop bar in a neighborhood known for its character, we let the landscape lead. The menu draws from the familiar flavors of South America, the Caribbean, and Latin America, with street food classics reinterpreted using local, seasonal ingredients. Cocktails are garden-driven, mixed with fresh herbs and house-made syrups. Music serves as the anchor—weekly sets that feel more like a night at a friend's house than a curated event. The result is a space that doesn’t feel new or designed—it just feels like it belongs.

Terras quickly became a neighborhood favorite, earning recognition as one of the Top Rooftop Bars in Miami by The Infatuation and Eater. With 20,000+ Instagram followers and a steady flow of regulars, the rooftop has maintained high demand year-round. The success of the restaurant has directly contributed to a notable increase in the hotel’s ADR, proving that what works for locals often works best for visitors, too.
