BOMBADIL’S INN
Where Memories Are Made & Troubles Are Forgotten
Built in the 1930s, this historic home features beautiful limestone walls, wood paneling, hardwood floors, and a cozy fireplace. The exterior includes multiple shaded patio areas enveloped by lush greenery and large overhanging trees.
Enchantment awaits you at Bombadil’s Inn! As soon as you enter this adorably handsome little cottage you’ll be overcome by a sense of whimsy and romance as warm feelings of nostalgia instantly transport you back to a bygone era of good living. To a time when life’s true and simple pleasures were common and more effortlessly enjoyed.
Leave the distractions of modern life behind when you come stay in this t.v.-free sanctuary. Bask in the home's irresistible charm as you enjoy your morning cafecito while listening to a vintage record. Snuggle up with a classic book off one of the shelves of its endearing little library, or experience a pleasant evening playing board games with the family by a glowing fire.
Outside its doors, you can spend whimsical afternoons beneath the shade of welcoming old trees and amidst delightful vegetation. You can listen to the chirping of friendly birds; witness foraging squirrels leap playfully before the watchful eyes of the garden gnomes, and, if they happen to deem you favorable, even befriend a group of peacocks in all their splendid colors.
Once the sun sets, you’ll be able to enjoy warm nights under the stars and string lights while sipping on your favorite cocktail as you sit in a nook of one of the lovely patio spaces, or, you can decide to take a leisurely stroll to one of the area's many nearby attractions.
With a fully equipped kitchen, an outdoor grill, and dining areas inside and out, you'll be able to enjoy intimate home-cooked meals in charming settings.
Decorated and furnished in a unique and timeless yet unassuming, fresh, and comfortable fashion, this magical little cabin hidden within Miami’s old historic Coral Gables neighborhood will be sure to steal your heart and leave you with memories that you'll keep and cherish for a lifetime.
“Hop along, my little friends, up the Withywindle!
Tom's going on ahead candles for to kindle.
Down west sinks the Sun: soon you will be groping.
When the night-shadows fall, then the door will open,
Out of the window-panes light will twinkle yellow.
Fear no alder black! Heed no hoary willow!
Fear neither root nor bough! Tom goes on before you.
Hey now! merry dol! We'll be waiting for you!”
—Tom Bombadil, The Lord of the Rings

Why they chose this property
Coral Gables is a beautiful historic neighborhood with Spanish revival architecture and massive ancient banyan trees lining the streets. It has an old Spanish feel to it and is very walkable (especially by Miami standards). There are a plethora of unique boutiques, bars, and restaurants in the area and it is also very central and near to other well-known Miami attractions.
