Description

Darling it's better, down where it's wetter, under the sea... or under the pool at Fort Lauderdale's Yankee Clipper Hotel, where the Wreck Bar sits. This nautical-themed watering hole feels like a mini-theme park without being tacky. A mermaid entertains drinkers Fridays at 6:30 p.m., Fish tanks graze the perimeter, and the wood-and-rope décor could compel you to speak pirate -- if you indulge in one too many of the establishment's fabulous alcoholic beverages. Try the Sea Emperor (made with Grey Goose vodka, Bacardi rum, Bombay Sapphire Gin, Patron Tequila, sour mix, and Pepsi) or the Sailor's Rum Punch (Meyer's Rum, lime juice, grenadine, angostura bitters, and club soda). Despite the theme-y appearance, nothing feels cheap or over-the-top. There's plenty of seats, and the low lighting and low buzz of people conversing creates a great ambiance for those with a group or those drinking alone.

    "What's a mermaid show Like, she has a tail -- and she's underwater" your friends from a boring state far away where the sun isn't always shining will ask, a bit skeptical of your plan. At this point, you'll have some explaining to do on your way to Wreck Bar, the shipwreck-style dark wooden bar with wide windows looking into the Sheraton's pool. Before the half-hour show begins, you can see, from the neck down, not-so-fit patrons bobbing along, an impromptu warm-up of humor. Soon... More »

    Event Review: Mermaid Show

    | Wed, February 1, 2012

    I'm a sucker for all things Tiki and this little bar in the Sheraton Fort Lauderdale is Heaven Under the Sea. The bar is tiny, done in a nautical theme like the hold of a wooden ship, with several large windows over the backbar allowing a view into the hotel swimming pool, where MeduSirena and her pod perform an underwater show that must be seen. Old Florida at its very best. The women are graceful, athletic and very entertaining. No one isn't smiling at them and they are always smiling back. The drinks aren't bad, either. Don't miss the opportunity if you're in the area. You just can't find this kind of a show anywhere. Check out this little video if you doubt me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOw1FBcSTjE
