We fully enjoyed this lovely spacious apartment with all the amenities, peace and quiet, and security. We liked preparing breakfast and some meals, relaxing on the balcony overlooking the courtyard with pool, and walking to shops, great restaurants and local sites. We walked to the Merrick House and Venetian Pool, and got to know a little of the history of this still independent city within Miami city limits. Check out the Coral Gables Museum just down the street - it's well worth it. We did easy day trips to Miami Beach, University of Miami campus, Coconut Grove, and Everglades National Park.
