Located on Biscayne Bay, just 10 minutes south of downtown Miami, Coconut Grove is a tropical paradise with a decidedly sophisticated style. Coconut Grove has a quaint village atmosphere with tree-lined streets and brick sidewalks just steps from the sailboats of Biscayne Bay. Luxury Miami waterfront and ocean view condominiums flourish throughout this very secluded upscale, mainly single-family home neighborhood. Popular Coconut Grove condos include Grove Hill, Grove isle, Mutiny Park and the Ritz-Carlton Residences. World-class hotels, such as the Mayfair, Ritz-Carlton and the Sonesta, draw Miami vacationers and luminaries.
Originally a Bahamian fishing village, Coconut Grove evolved into an artists colony, and is now world-renowned for its annual Coconut Grove Arts Festival, one of the largest art festivals in the nation. Coconut Grove also hosts the King Mango Strut, which began as a parody of the Orange Bowl Parade, and the Goombay Festival (a Bahamian-style Carnival).
The bayside village of Coconut Grove is known as a destination for fine shopping and dining. The Streets of Mayfair and CocoWalk feature open-air shopping and entertainment, and the village streets are lined chic fashion boutiques, antiques and art galleries and high-energy nightlife. Local favorite restaurants include Green Street Café, Monty’s Raw Bar and Le Bouchon.
Coconut Grove is also home to many historic attractions including Villa Vizcaya, built in 1916, the Kampong, an eight-acre tropical garden, and The Barnacle, built in the late 19th century and one of the oldest homes in Dade County, set on the shores of Biscayne Bay.
Bordered by Biscayne Bay, Coconut Grove has a thriving boating community. The area features a sailing club (Coconut Grove Sailing Club), a yacht club (Coral Reef Yacht Club) and a marina (Dinner Key Marina). One of the most desirable areas in all of Miami, the Grove is minutes from Downtown Miami, Coral Gables, Key Biscayne and South Beach.
