Bal HarbourThe small and charming Bal Harbour Village covers approximately just one third of a square mile, and has long been a hideaway for the rich and famous. It offers a beautifully maintained strip of primarily high-end luxury condos on the beach just south of Haulover Pier at the north end of Miami Beach between the ocean and Biscayne Bay. Incorporated in 1946, the village of Bal Harbour offers residential homes, gated communities, low-rise apartments, and high-rise and oceanfront condos. Villagers also enjoy shopping and fine dining in adjacent Sunny Isles Beach. Bal Harbour is best known for world-class shopping at the Bal Harbour Shops, Miami's luxury shopping destination since 1965. Ranked the number one most productive shopping center in the country (based on size), the stores include Tiffany and Bvlgari, Escada and Prada, Hermes and Louis Vuitton. The most exclusive shopping south of Palm Beach, Bal Harbour Shops was the first un-enclosed mall built in a courtyard style with a 2-story open center to let in sunlight and ocean breezes. This open center gives the mall a unique tropical feeling, and stays surprisingly cool even on the hottest days. The central tropical garden courtyard also offers several popular restaurants where you can dine and watch for celebrities. Currently near the end of an impressive revitalization, many of Bal Harbour's landmark hotels and condos have either been replaced with incredibly impressive new-and-improved versions of the old and well-loved sites, or completely re-done with the finest all-new luxury buildings. Bal Harbour is the total escape into luxury.The town itself has that vacation feel and offers two beautiful hotels, The Sea View, and The St. Regent (opened in 2008 on the site of the iconic Sheraton Bal Harbour). The 27 story St. Regis Resort and Residences is underconstruction and an exciting addition to Bal Harbour. One of the newest luxury oceanfront condominium is One Bal Harbour, on the northern most tip of the island. The building is in a prime location offering truly spectacular views. Bal Harbour gives you that South Florida luxury vacation feeling but maintains its small town appeal. Ft. LauderdaleThe world-renowned "Venice of America" is situated between the cities of Miami and West Palm. Fort Lauderdale's highly desirable residential boating lifestyle is created by the complex system of canals (165 miles of waterways), close proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, Intracoastal Waterway, and the New River. All this water access provides the city with the unique allure of extensive water views. Also highly regarded for its world famous beaches, yachting marinas, and maritime industry, Fort Lauderdale's Port Everglades is the cruise ship capital of the world. Also known for its diverse art and culture, Fort Lauderdale hosts the world's largest in-water boat show, the annual Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, and the Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival. Once 'the' spring break destination, Fort Lauderdale worked hard to change their image to a more positive, more 'grown up' seaside destination, and is now highly regarded as a resort town. With a large seasonal population, the snowbirds escaping the winter cold include the Baltimore Orioles, who make Fort Lauderdale their spring training home. For residents and vacationers alike, Fort Lauderdale offers a stretch of gorgeous beaches, great swimming, nearly year-round sunshine, and close-to-ideal climate conditions. Downtown offers shopping and dining, and top-notch boutiques and restaurants in the picturesque RiverWalkand charming boutique-chic Las Olas neighborhoods. The city also has a host of family-friendly options, such as Everglades Holiday Park and the Museum of Discovery and Science and IMAX Theater. The network of canals and waterways make boating are a natural part of the Lauderdale lifestyle, and tourists can get in on the act by renting a boat or hailing a water taxi, or taking a dinner cruise. There's a lot to do here, but the best thing to do might be nothing-spend some quiet time just soaking up the sun, or strolling along the beach at dusk. Fort Lauderdale is a place to relax, escape, and enjoy, year-round. Miami BeachMiami Beach has several communities along the ocean, each with its own charm and uniqueness.

Sunny Isles & AventuraSeveral of the most prestigious condominium towers in Miami are in Aventura. The finest condominiums in Aventura offer both Intracoastal and ocean views. Aventura is located to the north of Downtown Miami, east of Miami’s main thoroughfare, Biscayne Boulevard. On the Intracoastal Waterway, not on the ocean, Aventura begins on the right side of Biscayne Boulevard at NE 175th Street, goes up to 215th Street and stretches east from Biscayne Boulevard just to the Waterway, which divides it from the communities of Sunny Isles and Golden Beach (north of Miami Beach) that sit on the Atlantic. The area was developed during the late 1970s and '80s as a high-rise residential area. With the opening of the Aventura Mall, the 5th largest in the country, in 1983, the enormous success of the Mall encouraged explosive growth in the area. “Aventura”, also the Spanish word for adventure, has a colorful history. Once a renowned boat-building area, Aventura is where the sleek and super-fast racing boats, shown on the intro. to “Miami Vice”, zoomed along the Intracoastal in what was dubbed “Thunder Row” (NE 188th Street). Here the “Cigarette” style racer was founded by powerboat builder Don Aranow. The adventure ended badly however, when in 1987, a rival boat builder, Ben Kramer, shot Aranow down just outside his office on Thunder Row. This area is now undergoing development and offers some of the nicest condos in Miami, including the architecturally impressive and futuristic "Artech". In 1995, the City of Aventura was incorporated, and by 2006 U.S. Census estimates showed a population of 30,000. Known in Miami as a wealthy suburb, Aventura is also known for its substantial and diverse Jewish population with many Americans from the Northeast (New York, New Jersey, etc.), Aventura has also had an influx of Hispanic Jews (especially Mexican, Cuban, and Venezuelan), as well as Jewish immigrants from Brazil, France, Russia, Canada, and Israel. Reflecting the cultural diversity that makes life in South Florida so interesting, Aventura also boasts residents from Colombia, Cuba, and Romania. Aventura offers residents free and fee courses for all age and a variety of activities at the Community Recreation Center. There are seven parks: Founders Park offering The SplashPad, Arthur I. Snyder Memorial Park, Veterans Park, Waterways Park , Waterways Dog Park, and the Don Soffer Exercise Trail a 3-mile lap around the Fairmont Turnberry Isle Resort Golf Course. The beauty of the area, excellent schools, and the affluent lifestyle attracts more residents each day and Aventura's future looks bright. Hollywood & HallandaleHollywood and Hallandale Beach are conveniently located within minutes of the Fort Lauderdale International Airport. Newly constructed luxury oceanfront condominiums in the area include The Beach Club (Hallandale), The Diplomat Residences (Hollywood), and The Ocean Palms (Hollywood). HOLLYWOOD Western Hollywood offers the Anne Kalb Nature Center with over 1,500 acres of mangrove preserves, a protected bird rookery and sanctuary, and a fish nursery ground. And the antithesis, the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. Hollywood, with all its charm and its proximity to Miami-Dade County, offers something for everyone, which makes it one of the most desirable suburbs in South Florida. HALLANDALE BEACH Boca RatonBoca Raton, known for its affluent social community and high-income demographic, has been described as a cosmopolitan metropolis offering a tropical paradise lifestyle. The beautiful Atlantic Ocean, perfect beaches, wonderful festivals, social events, exclusive museums, and performing arts centers are just a few of the features that can fill your active social calendar. Home to the Boca Raton Resort and Club, designed by legendary architect, Addison Mizner over 80 years ago, Boca residents have long been enjoying the good life. Recently, an array of impressive additions and renovations have been underway, as well as a complete renovation of the Boca Beach Club. The finest shopping is available at the Town Center at Boca Raton, including Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, Louis Vuitton, Cartier, and many other fine stores and boutiques, and at Mizner Park, a new and beautiful outdoor luxury shopping and dining area with an outdoor amphitheatre (part of the Boca Raton Museum of Art) attracting big names in music to an intimate and casual venue in the winter months. Boca Raton attracts a large population of residents from the northeast, and is especially popular with New Yorkers. Among notable residents are a large number of athletes, especially tennis players, and musicians. Boca has an interesting interesting history, beginning as the site of pineapple plantations, and from 1967-1996 the southern home of corporate giant, IBM. Synonymous with wealth, Boca Raton has three of the ten most expensive gated communities in the U.S., including the number one, the Royal Palm Yacht and Country Club, The Sanctuary, and Le Lac. Boca has a reputation as a (rich) retirement community and a Mafia hangout perpetuated by TV shows like "Seinfeld" and "The Sopranos". |

Palm BeachPalm Beach is the easternmost town in Florida located on a 16-mile-long barrier island fronting the Atlantic. The other side of the island faces Lake Worth and anything on the other side of Lake Worth is the city of West Palm Beach. Palm Beach was established as a resort by Henry Morrison Flagler, a founder of Standard Oil, who made the Atlantic coast barrier island accessible via his Florida East Coast Railway. The nucleus of the community was established by Flagler's two luxury resort hotels, the Royal Poinciana Hotel, and The Breakers Hotel (originally wooden structures, neither survived). The site of the Royal Poinciana is now "Whitehall" Henry Flagler's home, and The Breakers was rebuil and is much larger and recently underwent a multi-million-dollar renovation, which included condo offerings of unmatched elegance. The homes and condos on Palm Beach proper are among the most expensive in Florida. There is a huge variety of architectural styles but each home is exquisitely landscaped and perfectly maintained. The Breakers Hotel, host of an annual polo tournament where Prince Charles regularly played, Palm Beach's oceanfront gem of a hotel is at the north end of a row of mansions on the beach. The most famous, Mar-A-Lago, once the home of Marjorie Merriweather Post, is now a private condo club, and was the site of Ivanna Trump's recent wedding. A drive along Ocean Drive, the most prestigious Palm Beach address, offers a view of Palm Beach's most incredible mansions, divided from their beachfront cabanas by the road. Lake Worth is connected to the Ocean by inlets at the north and south end of Palm Beach, and there are six bridges offering a crossover from the mainland. Palm Beach has been, and is, home to many notable residents including Donald Trump, Ronald Perelman, Lili Pulitzer, The Kennedy Family, and many others. The finest shopping in the world can be found on "Worth Avenue". Legendary for its quality merchandise, and extraordinary integrity, opulent Worth Avenue offers everything from haute couture, designer shoes, and exquisite jewelry to internationally acclaimed paintings and antiques, restaurants, hotels, boutiques, and upscale businesses and services. When you valet park your car at a Worth Avenue car park, the keyboard may be labelled "Rolls Royce", "Mercedes Benz", and "Other". |
