     Set the stage for cherished moments and magical experiences with a dreamy getaway for two to the idyllic destinations sprinkled around Gables by the Sea, an exclusive waterfront refuge in Coral Gables' southeastern corner.     

     Elevate your routine rendezvous and ordinary meet-ups with a curated escapade across the scenic spots and intimate nooks surrounding Gables by the Sea, a portrait of calm embraced by lush, park-like landscaping atop meandering waterways leading straight to the open seas of Biscayne Bay. 

    Revered as one of Coral Gables' most beautiful gated communities on water and one of the oldest in Miami, Gables by the Sea exudes grandeur and whimsical charm with its mosaic of elegant homes on a series of small, deep water canals, realizing a "fisherman's paradise" along Old Cutler Road — truly an unparalleled sight to behold. 

    But despite its tranquil setting, Gables by the Sea is anything but isolated, especially when it comes to Miami's vibrant energy and endless attractions. 

    Centrally located between South Miami and the Village of Pinecrest, Gables by the Sea boasts access to neighboring metropolitan treasures, adding another exciting layer to its luxurious nautical lifestyle.  

    And if you're planning a date to remember, well, you don't have to look any further!

     Whether craving a day of discovery, cozy chats over a latte, or indulging in a feast of your favorite flavors, an unforgettable experience with your special someone is always within reach at Gables by the Sea! 

     Here are the top five date spots near Gables by the Sea. 

     1) Toast to love and fresh bakes at La Boulangerie Boul'Mich    

     8283 SW 124th St, Pinecrest, FL 33156 

    Welcome the day with romance and regal morning bites at Pinecrest's famous French-Venezuelan artisanal bakery and café, La Boulangerie Boul'Mich, an 8-minute drive from Gables by the Sea.

    Promising everything sweet, savory, and all else in between, La Boulangerie Boul'Mich has been known as a Miami staple for over 20 years, and it's not one without good reason. 

    With high-quality ingredients and European-style baking techniques, this famous bakery creates freshly made delights served in a cozy and inviting atmosphere with a European café vibe perfect for a breakfast date for two — with creative coffee drinks sealing the deal!

    So, save a table and feast on your favorite morning delights to set an awesome tone for the day ahead!

    La Boulangerie Boul'Mich isn't just your usual neighborhood bakery — it's a dreamland of pure indulgence!

     2)  Bask in the romance of nature at Pinecrest Gardens    

     11000 SW 57th Ave, Pinecrest, FL 33156 

    Do you know what's better than a bouquet?

    Garden after garden of tropical flora and fauna at Pinecrest Gardens, a grand showcase of South Florida's natural allure just a 4-minute drive from Gables by the Sea.

    Encompassing around 14 acres of lush botanical gardens and fun attractions, Pinecrest Gardens boasts gardens and forested areas of native cypress sloughs, tropical hardwood hammocks, and riverine landscapes.

    Here, you'll find various specialty gardens (including a desert garden), more than 1,000 varieties of native and non-native tropical flora, and many notable natural features, including remnants of the Snapper Creek streambed, a 30,000-year-old solution hole, a piece of cypress hammock once connected to Big Cypress National Preserve, a 100-year-old Cocoplum, and various other mature landmark trees.

    And if you're up for a long stroll, hand in hand (of course!), invite your date to explore Pinecrest Garden's tranquil paths that wind through the botanical garden, a meadowed lake viewing area (Swan Lake) with resident wildlife, and fish-populated waterways — a must-visit if you wish to connect and interact with nature!

    It doesn't get more romantic than this!

     3) Pair the "brew-tiful" afternoon with art and cups of coffee at Brewing Buddha Cafe & Arthouse  

     8219 SW 124th St, Miami, FL 33156 

    Whoever said a coffee date has to be all about coffee probably hasn't been to Brewing Buddha Cafe & Arthouse, a local coffee shop serving the finest hand-crafted coffee, tea, sandwiches, and waffles!

    Located an 8-minute drive from Gables by the Sea, Brewing Buddha Cafe & Arthouse is far from your usual coffee shop, and you'll already know as soon as you step inside its trendy corridor.

    You see, aside from its unique coffee selection, Brewing Buddha Cafe & Arthouse boasts an ambiance reminiscent of a mini-gallery, thanks to the paintings and gorgeous photos hanging on the walls — all by the shop owners themselves!

    We're talking cozy couches, modern chairs, wooden interiors with lush artificial greens, and dozens of artsy masterpieces you can bask in for FREE!

    It's like diving into art and culture made better with artisan coffee!

     4) Bid farewell to the day with a dreamy sunset stroll at Deering Estate    

     16701 SW 72nd Ave, Miami, FL 33157 

    Before the Mr. Sun goes into its daily non-existence, take the romance to Deering Estate and bid farewell to the day with a magical sunset stroll — it's only a 10-minute drive from Gables by the Sea!

    Welcome to Palmetto Bay's proud tourist attraction, Deering Estate, a state-protected park spread across 444 acres of coastal Miami and one of South Florida's cultural and historic assets!

    Aside from being listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Deering Estate is home to an UNFORGETTABLE adventure, offering everything from canoe tours and bird walks to moonlit kayaking, boat tours, hiking, nature trails, eco-tours, and more!

    Embark on an evening kayak tour and island-hopping with the full moon shining, ride on a guided cruise to see Stiltsville, a small village of seven colorful, stilted houses that once were the discreet playground of the rich and famous, or just bask in the golden rays of the Florida sunset while exploring Deering Estate's lush pathways.

    It's a magical outdoor getaway for TWO you don't want to miss!

     5)    Let the night drift into the luxury of Italian elegance at Fiola Miami  

     1500 San Ignacio Ave, Coral Gables, FL 33146 

    Cap off the unforgettable day with a spread of authentic Italian fare at Fiola Miami, a sophisticated fine-dining restaurant 10 minutes from Gables by the Sea.

    Boasting an atmosphere that transports you straight to the charming streets of Italy, dining at Fiola feels like savoring a meal in one of Italy's finest hidden gems — one that won't require a passport or expensive plane tickets!

    And don't worry; the menu is equally true to its roots!

    We're talking unrivaled concoctions inspired by traditional recipes throughout Italy, from flavorful appetizers like Wagyu beef meatballs and Mediterranean octopus to main course options such as Australian Wagyu filet mignon or Wild Dover Sole!

    Pasta lovers will enjoy house-made options like the iconic Fiola Lobster Ravioli and Cacio e Pepe.

    Another thing Fiola is known for is infusing different cuisines into their Italian cooking, so you and your date can also relish innovative dishes alongside traditional ones! 

    Keyword? Pasta Omakase. 

    So, spruce up the evening with a taste of Italy without leaving Coral Gables — Fiola Miami is the perfect finishing touch to a rewarding rendezvous around Gables by the Sea.

    I use non-traditional marketing to inspire the most motivated buyers to pay the max for Miami luxury homes. Besides selling real estate, I love tennis, sports cards, NFTs, my family, mental health awareness, and HIGH-calorie foods 🤷🏽‍♂️
