Fort Lauderdale just landed its first invitation-only private social club. The Club at Pier Sixty-Six has officially opened inside the reimagined Pier Sixty-Six waterfront resort and superyacht marina destination — bringing the private-club lifestyle that has defined recent luxury growth in Miami and Palm Beach to South Florida's third major market.
The grandeur starts with the design. Bold tropical modernism by world-renowned Jeffrey Beers International anchors the club's social atmosphere, layered with jewel tones, sculptural lighting, a glowing central bar, and lush greenery — a deliberate departure from the quieter coastal aesthetic that has long defined Fort Lauderdale's hospitality interiors. The result is a clubhouse built less for restraint and more for energy, scaled to support the kind of programming that defines modern private membership.
Membership is closely tied to ownership at Pier Sixty-Six Residences, the first condos at the multi-billion-dollar reimagined property — buyers receive a Founding Membership to the invitation-only club as part of the purchase.
The membership unlocks the full club experience across the resort's expansive footprint. Members enjoy access to the private Orchid Room lounge and Garden Room restaurant, a members-only pool with cabanas and an outdoor bar, and the 13,000-square-foot Zenova Spa + Wellness, which features the region's first snow room and an Aufguss-inspired social sauna. The club also includes a dedicated fitness center and 12 dining venues across the property, including the legendary rotating Pier Top lounge. Marina privileges cover preferred dockage rates, wet slip priority, and private charter experiences, while ongoing five-star programming spans wellness series, fitness classes, chef dinners, and wine tastings.
The experience extends well beyond the amenity sheet. The Club's programming runs from private yacht champagne and caviar tastings to limited-seat chef series with the likes of award-winning chef Brad Kilgore — the kind of curated, exclusive events that have become the defining currency of South Florida's modern private-club movement.
With The Club at Pier Sixty-Six now open, Fort Lauderdale joins Miami and Palm Beach as the third major South Florida market with a marquee invitation-only club anchoring a major waterfront development — and gives Pier Sixty-Six Residences buyers a Founding Membership stake in one of the most anticipated new lifestyle institutions on the coast.
