Kids playground
Marisol D.

Spent the afternoon here with my niece the other day. And she loved it. This garden is very nice, shady and and an easy walk thru for kids.

Had a really great afternoon here! It was a beautiful day and wanted to go for a quick walk. I was able to buy a ticket right at the front and walked around the gardens. I sat outside at a table for awhile and it was very pretty. It was a pretty quick walk through the whole path so next time I would take my time and go a little slower.

Love visiting this place with family and friends. I first started coming here when my soon to be teenager was a baby There's a fun playground and the good ol' splash pad is still standing. The scenery is peaceful and there are plenty of great spots for beautiful photos. We like coming on Sundays, for yummy goodness at the farmer's market and then inside the gardens. They open every day, except holidays, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. Admission price includes all day access to the Garden nature paths and usage of amenities on premise including the playground, mini viewing zoo, picnic areas. General Admission: $5.00 Seniors 65+: $3.00 Children under 2: Free Active Military (with valid ID) and immediate family: Free Plenty of parking spaces, Free.

Another fun day at Pinecrest Gardens. We got there early to avoid the Sunday crowds (nice day + farmers mkt). The playground is always our first stop. It's such a great playground! Next stop is the slash pad. Although it was a bit cool there were plenty of kids having a great time. On our way out we had the pleasure of viewing the Celia Cruz exhibit by the entrance. Our adventure ended at the farmers market. A terrific day!

Visited Pinecrest Gardens on Sunday and wow what a wonderful experience! The garden itself is not very big but it is beautiful and has a variety of plants! There is a splash pad for the kids and also a very unique and intricate playground! I can't wait to come back and explore this garden more in depth and visit the library!

Nature at its best beautiful

Park is nice, you don't have to pay for parking. Entrance fee not to pricey and you can tell that the money that customers are being charged goes into the park.

Beautiful location, entry price is reasonable. Alot of greenery , alot of beautiful koi fish. Very family friendly location.

Rabbits and chickens as well as goats that have a soccer ball to play with haha kids loved it

The kids and I really enjoyed our summer kick off with Pinecrest Gardens ! Military friendly with lots of activities and fun for the parents and kids. Beautiful sites and walking trails. Benches to eat your brought in snacks. (Yes they allow outside food huge plus) but they also have a nice snack stand near the pond that even had swans gliding in the water. Splash pad was awesome and refreshing for the kiddos. We will definitely be back many many times I'm sure !

Still a five stars from me. I came with my lil charge and we discovered the new AMAZING park area. JOB WELL DONE. He loved it. We also saw the new zoo area - also a hit. We also enjoyed walking around the entire park and saw so many animals - in short, a huge crab, lizards, iguana, a pot belly pig, chickens, goats, rabbits, donkeys, fish, turtles, a swan, butterflies. We will surely be back and this time we will hit the splash area.

We went for the event - Nights of lights. It's a holiday lights set up. The whole park is converted into a winter wonderland. We got our tickets online and the check in process was smooth, no lines. There was plenty of parking available. The lights setup was so magical, completely loved it. Unfortunately my phone couldn't capture the beauty of the twinkling lights. It took us around 30 minutes to walk through the park. Highly recommend going to this setup during the holiday season.

See all

I came on a Sunday and they had a farmers market in the parking lot so we got food from there and ate it inside the garden.

This place is located about a half hour from downtown Miami. The drive isn't bad, but I'm not sure…read moreabout traffic in the area generally. We arrived here a bit after 1:30 p.m. on a Thursday. As we toured the gardens, I could see the road we came in on as it continued past some areas of the garden, and by 3 p.m. it was packed with cars at a crawl. So come early? The facility has ample parking on site. There is a main building that houses the gift shop, ticket counter, and a very small cafe. The gardens spread out behind it. Our tickets were free thanks to a Horticultural Society membership that my wife got. If you know that you'll be visiting at least a couple of sites like this within a year, it is worth checking on this to save some money on entry fees. There are paved paths throughout the gardens. You can walk the entire property, but they also offer hourly tram tours. We opted to do the tram first, and I think this is definitely the way to go. You can get a 1-hour overview of all the areas and then decide what to re-visit on foot afterwards. The focus of the gardens is tropical plants, though they have some other varieties as well. Our guide on the tram tour was quite good. He provide a historical overview and highlighted specific plants and architectural design choices as we drove around. Afterwards, we checked out the butterfly house and a few adjoining buildings. We also revisited areas with particularly nice views. My wife wanted to track down some Egyptian geese and also iguanas, both of which we'd seen on the tour. We were able to find both without too much effort. We probably spent 2.5 - 3 hours here. I enjoyed this more than I expected, and if you have any interest in landscape design or botanical gardens, this is a very worthwhile stop near Miami.

We were concerned one bad storm would bring it crashing down and cause damage to our house and the neighbors. The crew from TLC arrived as scheduled this morning, were courteous and professional, and worked quickly to complete the job. They cleaned up all of the trimmings and left the yard in excellent condition... Actually it was left in better condition than before they arrived because they hauled away some branches that fell to the ground under the tree weeks ago . But they really did do a great job and the customer service was amazing and the price charged was definitely worth having a professional tree service do the job right! We will definitely be contacting them in the future for any tree service needs.

While it's not your traditional beach, it certainly got the job done for me ‍ I honestly loved the lake like feel. The fact that there were small fishes grazing along the surf and the muddy like sand upon reaching the water (which definitely smoothed away some calluses while I swam)! It truly is a great beach for families with kids, something I learned there while entertaining a whole bunch of kiddos with my hula hoop (which I, personally, didn't mind since I love kids but wanted to give a heads up for anyone that's looking for something more kid free). Once the sun began to set, I grabbed some wine from the beach's restaurant. The wine was amazing and very reasonably priced but what was even BETTER? The song selection! I stayed a whole extra 30 minutes just to vibe out There couldn't have been a better way to start my vacation, honestly! I think it's more than worth it to visit this spot the next time you're in South Florida

Class is about an hour and although outdoors still in a covered space. Bring your mats and water to stay hydrated. The outdoor space has a lovely view with the bay next to you. The nice breeze helps with this Miami weather. The instructor is super nice. Whether your an expert or a beginner (like me) she goes around and helps to make sure your posture and positioning is correct so that you don't hurt yourself. Her voice also makes the whole experience soothing. After just one class I'm hooked. It's the perfect way to end the weekend and have a happy Sunday funday. Join me!

Mostly…read morebecause when you're local the mentality is, "why pay to see a fancy house? you can drive by coral gables or south beach and see them for free". I will say, the grounds are absolutely delightful, especially if you go in the Springtime as we did where flowers are all in full bloom, that alone is worth the ticket price. The architecture is exquisite! A feast for the eyes in so many ways. When we came to visit, they were doing renovations. You could see the water damage on the roof and walls, probably caused by one of the many Summer storms, because of that the tickets were at a discount that day but we were still able to appreciate the beauty of Viscaya. There are two cafe's. One in the garden of the main house, and another across the street where farm animals use to be kept. Surprisingly, the food and drinks are reasonably priced. The day we were there, a wedding was going to take place and there was a lot of commotion going on. Fancy tables being set up, fine china, crystal glasses, the whole works. We asked a security guard how much it costs to have a wedding reception there and he said: "Just to rent the space, no tables, no nothing, starting price is 100k". So if you have 100k lying around, and plan to get married soon, this could be an option for you. Jokes aside though; I'd definitely visit again.

From the moment you walk onto the property, you're surrounded by stunning architecture, beautiful landscaping, and so much history. The mansion itself is incredible, with each room offering something unique. The attention to detail in the design, the antiques, and the artwork really make it feel like you're walking through a piece of European history right in the middle of Miami. You can take your time exploring, and there's always something new to notice. The gardens were my favorite part. They're beautifully maintained, with fountains, statues, and pathways that make it fun to just wander around and take everything in. Plus, the views along Biscayne Bay are absolutely gorgeous and add such a peaceful vibe to the whole experience. It's the perfect place if you're looking for something different from the typical Miami attractions. Whether you're into history, photography, or just want a relaxing place to explore, this is definitely worth the visit. I would absolutely recommend adding it to your list!
