Review:
Built in the early 20th century as a subtropical version of an Italian villa, Vizcaya Museum & Gardens was once the winter residence of James Deering, one of the founding fathers of Miami and is located just south of the city on the shores of Biscayne Bay. The house's gardens are some of the most exquisite in the entire country, reminiscent of Italian and French gardens from the 17th and 18th centuries.
A romantic idea for couples: The hedges, fountains, and mazes in the tiny tropical paradise will charm visitors, who can also enjoy the 34 lavishly furnished rooms of the main house.
Good to know: Audio tours and guided tours of the house and gardens are available.
