Ideally located between the outskirts of Miami’s sprawling urban splendour and the blue waters of Biscayne Bay, Coconut Grove is home to a thriving local arts scene and Barnacle Historic State Park. Our hotels near Coconut Grove are perfect for experiencing a different side of the Sunshine State.
Explore the beautiful main house and extensive formal gardens at the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens and check out local art galleries like Grovehouse Artists and the Grove Retrospective Gallery. Near our Coconut Grove accommodation, shop at the trendy boutiques on Commodore Plaza and the unique shops at Mayfair. And the Green Street Outdoor Lounge and Restaurant provides a perfect downtown view. Speaking of views, one of the best places to view the sunset is La Ermita de La Caridad, a unique cone-shaped church along Biscayne Bay.
And don’t forget, you’re still in Florida! Go swimming with the dolphins at the Miami Seaquarium, stargaze at the Miami Museum of Science and Planetarium, hop on an airboat at the Everglades Alligator Farm or walk among nearly 400 primates at the Monkey Jungle. The guided kayak tour to Chicken Key, a 7-acre mangrove island, is a thrill, and there’s plenty of fishing on Biscayne Bay as well. Take the shuttle from your hotel in Coconut Grove to Boca Chita Island and climb to the top of the lighthouse at Boca Chita Key or play a round at Biltmore Golf and Country Club.
