Beside Biscayne Bay’s blue hues await the coastal glory of Coconut Grove. This majestic Miami municipality is affectionately called The Grove, a moniker the hyper-verdant area fully embraces. Coconut Grove comprises South Florida’s beauty and history, all in a remarkably preserved package that feels like a true escape from the typical urban environment. Tree canopies rise over the streets and avenues, fostering a predominant placid, inviting aura. Miami’s oldest neighborhood fittingly boasts the area’s oldest house, still standing in its original 1891 location near a tropical hardwood hammock forest. The Mediterranean Revival-style Vizcaya Museum and Gardens sits among a native woodland landscape offering blooming flora, art exhibits, and intact early-20th-century architectural detailing and design. For contemporary living, you’ll find a compelling mix of options, including high-rise condominiums, sleek new developments, and charming bungalows. Not to mention, Coconut Grove is well-served by Miami’s Metrorail.
