Reviews With Photos - Paradox Museum

Wakeelah F.

What a wonderful staff and a wonderful time! So many photo opportunities and they come out so great! This is an awesome place to visit with the whole family. You won't be disappointed.

Alisa M.

This was one of the worst 'museums' we've ever been to. A quarter of the way through I was regretting that I recommended to my family that we come here and wanted to just leave. The space did not feel as if any thought had been put into the ambience, and it felt like a series of intents of photo ops but had no substance. In the heat of South Florida the space was poorly air, conditioned, and musty. The only positive was the staff who's incredibly friendly and helpful and offers to take your photographs. It was such a disappointing experience, especially since the façade with the gift shop upon arrival makes it look like it might be something that's actually good. Save your money and don't waste your time.

Diamond A.

I loved coming here it's a great place for family and friends and kids. It's very interactive and fun I love the illusion some of the rooms had it was literally mind blowing how each room gave a different illusion and perception on camera. The staff was very friendly and helpful there's also a gift area where you can buy gifts at the end of your time being at the museum. I wish it was bigger and had more things for us to do and interact with I did think the exhibit would be bigger but it definitely was fun!

We had a lot of fun at this interactive museum in the Wynwood area of Miami. Paradox offers 70 illusion-based exhibits providing great photos ops. There are attendants offering help and taking photos along the way. You walk one way through with the bathrooms half way and a gift shop at the end. I felt some motion sickness and should have taken Dramamine. We spent about an hour and a half there. Tickets are $26 during week and $28 on weekends. There is no parking lot. Paid parking is available in the neighborhood with the PaybyPhone app.

Been wanting to see this place for a while now, the course I teach includes a section on optical illusions and that is basically what this whole museum is about. It was pretty busy on the Sunday afternoon that we went there. The admission is around $26 but I was able to get a teacher discount which saved us a couple of dollars each. You go through rooms with different exhibits and there are signs that explain the different experiences. It is a great place to take really interesting pictures, and it's just fun stuff to see. You will be perplexed and entertained throughout. We spent close to two hours there, looking and experiencing all the exhibits. There are staff members there to answer any questions and to take pictures, so you don't have to worry about asking a stranger to take a picture of your whole party.

Jerry T.

Spent 2 hours 30 minutes here. A little pricey for something that takes most about 1 hr 30 m. Discount offered for Florida residents and a few other categories (although none for seniors). Employees were present and extremely helpful throughout the exhibits. They explain what you should do to fully grasp what you are viewing and were very helpful taking pictures of the entire group. Most of the exhibits were fully functional. A few at the start have plaques where the writing has been worn off by people touching them and should be replaced. Most of the exhibits had QR codes that better explained the science. There were just a couple duplicative exhibits that were broken. Overall a fun experience. Be prepared to pay for parking. There are a small number of mobile pay parking spots on the side and back of the property. Street parking around this area is available using the same mobile parking app. Think we paid less than $10 after adding a couple hours to our initial. You can easily extend on the non-affiliated parking app. Tip: Walking distance to Wynwood Walls. So many gorgeous building murals to view for free. Some shopping and many restaurants and bars to choose from. In February 2025 exploring this area is considered a top ten thing to do in Miami. The marketplace is your main target. May as well do it at the same time!

Maria S.

It was the best experience ever! We had so many laughs and 200 million Instagram worthy pics! Great for family friendly summer fun!

Siao Z.

We spent 1 hour and 30 minutes even though we tried to speed through the museum. I can't believe how mind blowing some of the pictures were. The staff was super friendly and I loved every single one of them! They were so willing to help photograph and explain what to do and how and even show live examples! If they change stuff here and there again, I would come back again for more pictures. It was a fund adventure for us.

Annika D.

Fun, but nothing insanely special! Had the opportunity to check out the Paradox Museum with the Yelp elite squad. It was a cute way to spend the afternoon, with fun visual effects. It is mainly built to take photographs, however, rather than an immersive experience. May be good for young kids. I wouldn't say i would pay to experience it.

The idea is good. Mostly the execution is good. But there are some rough edges that make it- imo- overpriced. I'm not sure how long it has been open but things are looking a little run down. We got in on a discounted day and still felt it was a little too expensive for adult fun. I love a paradox and visual puzzles and I di my best to have fun. It seemed like several new exhibits were going to open soon but is disappointing when you don't get the chance to see them.

Chantal A.

I took 3 teenage boys and it managed to keep their attention for about 45 minutes. I can't complain. I would recommend it for a fun date day idea. It's right in wynwood so you can some good food after.

Chad W.

Absolutely loved the Paradox museum. Fun little spot you get to be interactive with. Great photo opportunities as well. Great for adults and kids.

Leslie S.

Pros: Fun! Fun! Fun! Great spot to chill out and take great pictures, it's best if you have at least one person to go with, as there are several photo ops that are for 2 or more folks. I went on my own for the yelp private event, but thankfully they had friendly staff ready to help with photos! Cons: Limited street parking, you can park at Strata next door, it's $5 for the first hour and $3 thereafter, a little pricier than street parking, but better than walking a few blocks at night. 10/10, would like to return with a loved one!

By far, one of the most mind blowing immersive art experiences I've been to in a while! Every exhibit is different and has different tricks it plays on you, and the staff is so helpful and ready to take your pics. I love that all photos has a description to give you a hint of what you're looking and there are also camera stickers on the floor to give you the perfect angle for all illusions. With so many different installations it's hard to keep up. The staff is dressed in white and black jumpsuits so even if there isn't one at your exhibit you can always wave someone down for help and they'll give you the breakdown. The entire exhibit took about an hour and change but you can go at your leisure. Just make sure to get all your good shots because you can't go back and they say, keep moving forward. It's hard to pick a favorite part because they were all so much fun! read more

They had a teacher night! So, I gather a few friends to try this place. We had such a good time. We didn't know what to expect. But every corner you find a friendly staff to guide you. They even help you with taking a best shot. It was not so crowded when we went. But it took us over an hour to go through everything. They don't have a parking but there are plenty street parking and garage as well. Make sure to put money to last at least an hour and half. read more

Located in trendy Wynwood, this place is a lot of fun! Featuring many interactive exhibits, interesting photo ops and staff that is friendly, knowledgeable and is helpful, what's not to like about it? I would highly recommend to visit during a weekday right as they open though because I can see where it wouldn't be as much fun on a busy day. And once you are done, you can still enjoy yourself walking around Wynwood and snapping even more photos thanks to all the street art, murals and interesting characters and spots around the area. We went on Presidents' Day at 11am and it took us about an hour to go thru it. Make sure your phone is fully charged! read more

We had so much fun! The venue is small, but it still took us nearly two hours to enjoy everything--taking tons of pictures, chatting, and laughing together. The staff was super friendly and helpful, offering great tips for taking the best photos and even helping us snap a few group shots. One great perk: you're allowed to re-enter as many times as you like--someone in our group actually went through the exhibition three times! Two quick tips: Parking - It's cheaper if you park at the Strata garage, as they offer ticket validation. I parked on the street, and it ended up being more expensive. Restroom - It's located in the middle of the exhibition. If you need to use it before starting, a staff member can escort you through. It would be more convenient if it were near the entrance, but that's just a heads-up, not a complaint. We had a blast visiting! It's a great experience for the whole family. read more

I really loved this museum, and my girlfriend and I went. She was extremely excited once she got there; I could see the excitement on her face. I strongly recommend this place for everyone to visit, and make sure you dress nicely because you'll be taking a lot of pictures! The only reason I gave it 4 stars is that there was one staff member with red/orange hair who wasn't very nice and ruined some parts of the museum for me. For the most part, the entire staff was extremely friendly, except for that one person. Maybe the job isn't the best fit for her, as she seemed to be in a bad mood. It was my first time there, so everything felt NEW and MAGICAL, but this one staff member was obviously not in the best mood. She seemed bored and annoyed, which completely ruined the vibe of the place because all the other employees were extremely nice and cool, and didn't act like they were bored and uninterested in their job. If I see they acknowledge this review I will be more than happy to give 5 stars because I do feel bad about the 4 stars. read more

This is the perfect afternoon plan for the kids. The paradox museum is located in Wynwood. They have ticket packages that you can purchase ahead of time and you can schedule the time that you want to be at the museum. Come with your camera ready, a cute outfit, and ready to pose. You will be in a whole bunch of different setting and get a whole bunch of cool shots with your family. I came with my parents and my sister and her two kids and it was the perfect plan. The kids had something new to try in every room. We made cool memories and took awesome photos. You can do the whole museum in about an hour to an hour and a half if it is crowded. But the staff is awesome and they will tell you how to pose and help take the photos for you. This is something fun and different that you can do with your family. read more

My husband and I visited this museum as part of our day trip to Miami. I wish parking wasn't so…read moreexpensive ($18 flat rate). It took us about 2.5 hours to explore the entire place including the planetarium show. The show that worked out best with timing was called "How to Die in Space: An Interactive Adventure Through the Cosmos." The girl leading it was wonderful but as you may figure by its name, the show was not a peaceful experience. There were a number of explosions that I think scared some of the kids in attendance. The other exhibits included one about flight, the human body/mind, an aquarium, dinosaurs, and general Florida wildlife. I can't say I learned a terrible amount of new information but it was fine.

I will say, the grounds are absolutely delightful, especially if you go in the Springtime as we did where flowers are all in full bloom, that alone is worth the ticket price. The architecture is exquisite! A feast for the eyes in so many ways. When we came to visit, they were doing renovations. You could see the water damage on the roof and walls, probably caused by one of the many Summer storms, because of that the tickets were at a discount that day but we were still able to appreciate the beauty of Viscaya. There are two cafe's. One in the garden of the main house, and another across the street where farm animals use to be kept. Surprisingly, the food and drinks are reasonably priced. The day we were there, a wedding was going to take place and there was a lot of commotion going on. Fancy tables being set up, fine china, crystal glasses, the whole works. We asked a security guard how much it costs to have a wedding reception there and he said: "Just to rent the space, no tables, no nothing, starting price is 100k". So if you have 100k lying around, and plan to get married soon, this could be an option for you. Jokes aside though; I'd definitely visit again.

The property and history is pretty amazing. As many other reviews have mentioned, a good portion of the rooms and structures are closed for renovations. They have reduced the entry to $20 from $25 but it still was a little disappointing that the casino building and several rooms in the house were closed. Being that it was the offseason, some of the gardens did seem to be past their peak. We hope to return when everything is open in season and tour the whole facility.

I was disappointed with my visit to Superblue Miami. I went in expecting an experience similar to…read morethe one in Las Vegas, but it fell far short of my expectations. The exhibits felt limited, and overall there wasn't enough to keep me engaged throughout the visit. I gave it 2 stars because there were two installations that I genuinely enjoyed: the heartbeat light experience and the mist light show. Those were immersive, creative, and visually impressive. Unfortunately, the rest of the museum didn't offer the same level of excitement or wow factor. If you've been to other immersive art experiences, especially in Las Vegas, you may find this one underwhelming. While there were a couple of highlights, I don't feel the overall experience justified the cost of admission.

We paid $20 each admission walked past the wall of vulvas to the penis bed. We walked upstairs to see the galleries. The Wilzig was created in 2005 by Naomi Wlzig as the only American museum dedicated to fine erotic art with a renowned collection of over 4,000 international artworks dating from 300 BCE to the present. This collection is distinguished by quality, diversity, and unique focus on erotic themes.. We began by watching an 8 minute videos with Naomi. Founded in 2005 by Naomi Wilzig, the World Erotic Art Museum (WEAM). She teamed up with the Kinsey Institute, The Research Center for the Cultural History of Sexuality at Humboldt University in Berlin & Florida International University (FIU) -- College of Communication, Architecture, and the Arts (CARTA). There were many galleries with comfortable seating spaces and clean restrooms. We spent about an hour here wandering around the maze of 20 small rooms. We passed lots of international photographs, wood carvings, sculptures and paintings. There was a room filled with Miami Vice memorabilia; photos, clothing & tchotchkes. The World Erotic Art Museum (WEAM) presented Mark Kostabi: Revisited, a striking exhibition of 14 new, large-scale, faceless paintings created for the museum. While living & working in Rome, he explored themes of eroticism, technology & the paradoxes of digital intimacy. Highlighted were sexting amid digital distraction, and a surreal portrayal of 3 nude women taking a group selfie; juxtaposing joy, sensuality & technology. Gorge Daniell presented gay themes through photographs & paintings of glamorous celebrities, and scenes of everyday life in pre-and-post-war America. His works were featured in major magazines, including "Time," "Life" and "Esquire," and was also displayed in the Smithsonian, The Museum of Modern Art and the Chicago Institute of Art.

BALLOON MANIA…read more.. This Pop-Up event runs five months thru Sept at the Mana Wynwood Convention Center then on to the next city. Paid at the venue $42 discounted rate for FL resident including $30 for parking in the private lot which was an unexpected cost, but had to park somewhere safe. Tickets were also available online. Decided to come here during the week to avoid a ton of little kids on the weekends or summer camp trips. Definitely NOT adult friendly entertainment. Took exactly one hour to experience all the room, so pricey for a short time. Maybe at a busier time it would be 1.5 hours but no way longer. Most of the exhibits were hands off and a few were interactive like the swings and ball room with music and cool light shows. It was something the wife wanted to see since it looked cool on Instagram, but not something I would ever do again.

So, this is a bit of a complex review to write because the take-away is that I loved my visit, but…read morethe experience left me wanting more, mainly because the subject matter of the main exposition was just not my cup of tea, but I can see how it would appeal to the Miami community because of their love for sports. The setting and location could not be better - totally breathtaking. Views of the causeway and Biscayne Bay / Downtown Miami are amazing. The architectural details with concrete and MCM inspired wooden accents are just perfect. The staff were knowledgeable and helpful, and definitely added to our experience, and the gift shop is great. The restaurant is excellent and has a thoughtful menu, with several items that are inspired by pieces from the permanent collection. The sports art exhibit took much more space than I would have liked. There is a LOT of money in Miami, and I would have expected a permanent collection or even visiting exposition that would rival museums in New York, Philadelphia, or Washington, DC. - modern art, Impressionism, renaissance, or other fine art would be incredible. That being said, I will definitely return to enjoy the museum, and look forward to seeing where their artistic directors take things in years to come!

Every single piece of art was so informative and it truly blew my mind away to see how far we've come over the decades with regard to sex erotica and fantasy. Not only is the museum fun and interactive, it does have a section where it goes through each decade of time dating as far back to the 1920s and talks about toys, birth control methods and erotic filmography, etc. Inside the "erotic carnival" portion of the museum, each display is interactive, which means you scan your phone to this QR code and you basically get to play different games & win prizes! It really is like a carnival for adults! I definitely recommend going here with your girlfriends or even your partner. (one of the displays actually lets you "get married" and prints a certificate at the end, so cute!)

The building features a large variety of installations which are mostly interactive which was a nice surprise. I expected this place to be more like a museum with facts and history about sex toys or brothels or something like that but it was not like that at all. It gave carnival game type feels with a jerk-off glory hole game in what appears to be bathroom stalls in which I won a tiny stuffed donut. There were claw machines, a bull riding section, a stripper pole, and a giant boob bouncy room. There is a sex store/gift shop at the entrance which felt fitting. Overall, a very fun place for open minded people looking for something different and unique to do in Miami.

Coral Castle

This is an interesting pit stop if you're in South Florida. We went because it was mentioned in…read moresome TV shows and was something that stood out as unusual. But, it is really quite small. If this was a $10 admission fee, I'd probably add one star. But, they charge $25/pp and there's not much to the place. All that said....is it interesting? Sure. It makes you wonder why the guy who built the place obsessively worked to make it. The story about his lost love gives his the motivation. Still, pretty incredible that he went to this effort by himself.

My husband has wanted to come here ever since he was a kid, after hearing Leonard Nimoy talk about…read moreit on his show In Search Of.... Hubs told me about it, and then we heard about it together on Coast to Coast Am, early in our marriage. I had forgotten all about it until we were planning our trip to the Keys and my husband brought it up, so, we made it a priority to visit. Homestead is basically the last city you hit on the mainland before you begin your journey through the Keys, so you don't really have to make special plans to get here if you're heading there. Admission is $25 per adult, slightly less for children. With tax and a credit card convenience fee of $1.50, our total admission cost was $55. Personally, I think it was worth it, but then, I am into the weird stuff. The place can accomodate at least 100 people, but due to the oddity of the place and, I'm guessing, it's lack of notoriety, it doesn't seem to get very busy. There were maybe 25-30 people in the 2.5 hours we spent there. Coral Castle is almost entirely outdoors and exposed to the elements, so it is not really a castle. There are sitting areas, a dining area, bathing area and one enclosed living (sleeping) area. The living area could be called a tower, as it is two floors, but 1) You only get to see the lower floor which is now kind of a tool shed museum and 2) You can peek in it, but you can't actually go in it. Everything is made of a type of stone called oolite limestone. It is extremely strong and very heavy. The mystery of the castle is how it was built. How did one 5' tall man move multiple stones, weighing a ton or more, by himself? How did he make his stone chairs rock, and his stone gates turn? He claimed to know the secrets of the pyramid builders, and to this day, no one really knows how he did it. There are guided tours at regularly scheduled intervals, and you can join in anytime at no additional charge (recommended), or you can walk around and look at everything yourself, but there is no signage. You can stay as long as you want and take as many pictures as you want as well. There is a gift shop which has a cutout of Edward Leedskalnin, the man who built Coral Castle, that you can take a photo of or selfie with, along with the usual gift shop fare of shirts/sweatshirts, postcards, magnets, books, and other items. If you're looking for something interesting and unusual to do on the way to the Keys, I highly suggest a stop here. 99/2025

Museum Of Ice Cream

The exhibits are colorful, interactive, and great for photos, although some areas seemed a little worn compared to what I expected. For the admission price, I was hoping for a more polished, premium experience. One of the highlights is the unlimited ice cream offered throughout the different rooms. That said, there's only so much ice cream a person can eat, so you'll definitely get more out of it if you arrive hungry! The ball pit was a fun concept, but unfortunately it had an unpleasant odor that reminded me of a wet diaper. I assume it had seen a lot of use from younger visitors earlier in the day, so we decided to skip that attraction. Overall, we had a good time, but I felt the previous location offered a much better experience. While it's still worth visiting at least once, I don't think this version quite lives up to its predecessor.

You have to buy tickets online and the only downside was that the fees were as much as one of the tickets. Traffic downtown is a challenge, as is parking but we found a lot that wasn't far. We arrived exactly at our ticket time and after our QR code was scanned we were led into the first room with a group of about 15 people. We all moved at our own pace from room to room. The staff was friendly and upbeat and everything was kept pretty clean. There were lots fun quiz questions and facts and games and most rooms had cups of different flavors of ice cream. I can honestly say I have never before eaten so much ice cream in one evening. They had one room set up like an airplane- that took us to Frosty Land and the flight attendant served more ice cream as we watched the ice cream themed scenery out the "windows". One room was carnival themed with games, cotton candy and caramel popcorn flavors of ice cream. There was a room full of freezers and a couple had secret rooms. There was a soda fountain room with a bar and jukebox and slides down to the sprinkle pit. The museum is good for all ages and all levels of interest. The included unlimited ice cream is a great perk and if you wanted, you could buy extras like a banana split or drinks. And of course there's a small gift shop at the end. We were told the entire experience would be about 90 minutes but we were there longer and still engaged.

Looking back, I realized it's been a while since I've reviewed this place, and honestly I think…read moreiPic deserves its flowers. Every time we've visited, it's been a great experience. Now, full disclosure: I'm not a huge theatre person. I'd much rather be curled up on my couch than paying to periodically shush strangers. But iPic makes leaving my house worth it. The oversized recliners, cozy blankets, in-seat service, and a good movie? That's a solid date night. Now onto the important part. My biggest tip is to arrive 30 minutes before showtime so you're not trying to read the menu by flashlight once the previews start. Since we caught an afternoon showing, I wanted something a little lighter and ordered the Harvest Bowl, while hubby went with the bison burger and sweet potato fries. I treated myself to one Old Fashioned, and he kept it simple with a beer. Everything arrived before the movie started, which I always appreciate. Just be warned... once those lights go down, you're pretty much on your own trying to guide food from plate to mouth. I find it to be a fun challenge. The Harvest Bowl was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what I was craving with chickpeas, quinoa, avocado, and plenty of green. The sweet potato fries were good too. I would've loved a little more crisp on them, but let's be honest that's usually the trade-off with sweet potato. The portions were just right. Filling enough to enjoy without immediately falling asleep in those dangerously comfortable recliners. (Although... maybe skip the late-night showing if you're anything like me.) If you're looking for an easy date night with good food and a comfortable movie experience, iPic remains as my solid choice.

This museum is located in the heart of Wynwood and is a cool spot to check out for great photos. It has free parking in the back and can get busy on weekends, but you can pick a time slot and have plenty of time to walk around. Initially, I wasn't too interested in going, but now I'm happy I did. It has lots of cool photo spots for Instagram, and the whole experience takes about an hour. There's even a little gift shop at the end. The best part, though, was the staff. As a mom, I'm always the one taking the pictures and often get excluded, but the workers were there at every spot, proactively asking me if I'd like a picture with my girls. One girl even lifted my 120-pound daughter onto a prop for the best picture ever! I don't know how much she gets paid, but I'm sure she deserves a raise! This is a cool place to come with friends or even on a date. Make sure to stop by when you're in the area because it's definitely worth it! read more

Had such a good time both times I came, once with my partner, and again with my family. First time I went it was a Saturday and it was really busy but still worth it. When I came back with family it was a weekday and much emptier so we really got to enjoy and take lots of pics!! The staff are so helpful, some pictures you have to edit, or take from certain angles, or even do funny poses, and they explain it so well and even helped teach my mom edit pictures on her phone. Considering they just opened, the staff are doing an amazing job. You can ask them literally anything and they'll help you. They even have free lockers do you don't have to lug your purse around like I did the first time. Take your time and enjoy the flow! read more

Paradox Museum was such a cool and unique experience! The illusions were seriously impressive--super creative and fun to interact with. My family and I had a blast walking through. What made it even better was the staff. There were friendly, helpful team members all throughout the museum offering tips, guidance, and even taking pictures for us so we could actually be in the fun shots instead of just behind the camera. It's not the cheapest attraction, but they do offer some possible discounts, so it's worth checking ahead. The only minor downside was that parking was a little confusing--but once we were inside, it was totally worth it. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a fun and interactive outing! read more
