Plenty of parking is found under and around so whoever designed it knew what they were doing. Little known fact, there is a really nice disc golf course that needs a little work. There are no pads and no signs telling you where to go so that would be cool if they did. The course itself is a fun round to play. A couple of the holes go around the lake so beware of throwing your disc in (done it twice) Speaking of the lake, really great spot to spot salt water crocs. The lake is close enough to the sea that it gets pretty salty water. I spotted a sizable barracuda Overall, I really cool place to check out if you haven't

A wonderful venue for any occasion, in my humble opinion. We were in a clear sided tent which was well illuminated and the air conditioning did not disappoint.

Highly recommend!

I bought a groupon for group salsa lessons at A PARTY HALL. If you live in the south dade area…read morethis is a great location rather than heading up towards Bird Road for the same. It's located in a small strip mall just under the turnpike with ample and close parking. Bobby the owner was very friendly, warm and accommodating to me and my son. They begin the classes very close to the exact time and finish right on the dot. We began with Olga who was just great! She explains all the steps in detail, does a lot of repeats and watches to see how you progress. She was the perfect beginner instructor for us and we enjoyed her very much. After a few lessons with Olga, we began to learn coupled combinations that Bobby always watched for technique to move us into the group dancing. The group classes are run very well. Lots of mirrors and loud call-outs so you can keep up in the warm-up. Then they have several instructors including Bobby that teach and monitor all the dancers for the entire class. If you are interested in learning some basic salsa dancing or you want to get advanced lessons in New York style salsa, I would highly recommend A PARTY HALL. They are excellent in the beginner classes as well as challenging you to perform in the couple group dancing. I did notice the regular pricing and would still choose them without a groupon discount.

Bobby was attentive, and always put in more time so we got well over what we actually paid for. My boyfriend and sister had never danced before and they took the group classes with me. We all can hold our own now thanks to the lessons we had here. We not only learned but we extended our family and embraced the world of salsa. Thank you, Bobby and everyone at A Party Hall that made this a memorable experience! I look forward tot he next level of classes. I'm ready!

The space at this estate and the grounds are beautiful and the upkeep is impeccable. I had never been here before but it is definitely picture worthy. I also hear it's a popular spot for weddings and all kind of events. You have to preregister and pay a $5 fee to attend Sunday classes. 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!

There is a huge barn for ceremony, dancing , etc. there are huge tiki huts for appetizers , bars, or what have you. And there is a large salon that can be opened to the beautiful grounds or closed if weather is having a tantrum. I could not get over the otherworldliness of this place. If you are researching venues for events, give this place a shot. The prices are very reasonable as well.

Our friends and family did not stop talking about the venue and food for days. The venue was stunning everything we had asked for. The food was delicious, cooked to perfection with a fabulous presentation. I honestly only have great things to say, highly recommend.

Came here for a buddy's wedding…read more Turns out to be an awesome location for any event. The owner of this establishment did the landscaping for my friends house and he liked his work so much that he decided to have his wedding at this "showroom" site From the outside it looks plain and its really in the middle of nowhere. However, once inside the landscaping genius takes over. As seen from my posted pictures there's a Koi pond that surrounds a central tiki hut island which makes for the perfect center piece for a wedding ceremony. There are also various trees and waterfalls that surround this area. If you follow the palm trees and foliage to the back of the property there are clearings for events/receptions etc. Cons to this place are its location (Redlands) and that there are dirt pathways that should be paved. Walking through these dirt pathways can get your nice shoes dirty and if it rains they can become significantly muddy. Finally, there are no restrooms for big groups of people. For the wedding portable restrooms were driven into the property. All in all I would definitely recommend this site for an exclusive event or wedding. Additionally, the owner is very friendly and does great work. I would recommend "Jungle B" for landscaping your house or commercial property.
