With 77 years of history, Bal Harbour Village is one of the most distinguished residential districts in South Florida. In just over a kilometre and a half of extensive white sand beaches on the Atlantic Ocean – bordered by a green forest promenade ideal for cycling, running or outdoor walks – it combines elegance and sophistication with a relaxed beach lifestyle. This is what has made it an internationally famous tourist destination. Bal Harbour offers a variety of cultural, shopping and recreational activities, as well as upscale accommodation.
With events as attractive as the cinema screening on the beach, art installations and gourmet gastronomy, those staying at their hotels can take advantage of the Unscripted program that allows access to the best museums and galleries in the city, including the Pérez Art Museum and The Bass.
