Video: An Iconic Landmark | Coral Gables' Biltmore Hotel Turns One Hundred

The Biltmore Hotel is celebrating 100 years of history, elegance, and architectural beauty
and it’s still one of the most breathtaking historical places in all of South Florida. From its beautiful design and legendary pool—one of the largest hotel pools in the country— The Biltmore Hotel has hosted world leaders, international summits, Hollywood legends, and generations of memorable moments.

Here's a Little History:

Coral Gables founder George Merrick wanted a monumental building as a centerpiece for his suburban upscale garden-city development. Various cities at that time promoted grand architecture as a foundation of city planning - as a part of the City Beautiful movement. Inspiration for the Biltmore Hotel's iconic tower came from the majestic Giralda Tower in Seville, blending Spanish heritage with Merrick's Mediterranean Revival vision.

The hotel officially opened in January 1926, and it was the tallest building in Florida. In September, a major hurricane struck Miami. While the hotel was undamaged, the housing boom ended, and Merrick's company filed bankruptcy in 1929. The hotel was resold a few times before eventually ending up in the hands of the military during WWII, serving as a hospital.

The building served many roles over its long history - Post WWII, it later became a VA hospital and early UM school of medicine thereafter. Fortunately, the City of Coral Gables was granted ownership for $3 million in 1973 under the Historic Monuments Act, and the building was added to the US National Register of Historic Places. They discussed converting it into a housing complex with adjacent apartment buildings or using it as a campus for FIU.

Fortunately, after bringing the golf course and country club back to life, the city agreed to restore the Biltmore to a 266-suite hotel for $40 Million. That still wasn't the grand season of the Biltmore - After being restored and reopened as a 4-Star hotel in 1987, the loan note was foreclosed on by Barnett Bank and the hotel closed for 3 years in 1989.

A Helping Hand Comes Along: Gene Prescott and the Seaway corporation saved the hotel. The city agreed to lease them property and land for 99-years. It was restored once again, and the Biltmore was later was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1996. Today it remains a centerpiece of Coral Gables heritage, culture and architectural splendor.

What's at the Biltmore Hotel? In addition to being a hotel, there's an 18-hole golf course, a spa, and an iconic swimming pool - one of the largest in the country. There are event rooms, conference and meeting rooms, and restaurants, Sunday brunch is popular. The ballroom often serves as a venue for weddings. The Biltmore offers membership options to the community to use its facilities. Throughout the year are both public and private events, including an outstanding 4th of July fireworks show and a New Years Eve dessert and fireworks event.

Have There Been Famous Visitors?
Here are some of the Biltmore's famous visitors of the past decades: Christina Aguilera, Muhammad Ali, Lauren Bacall, Kevin Bacon, Antonio Banderas, Angela Bassett, Larry Bird, James Caan, Natalie Cole, Cindy Crawford, Celia Cruz, Jane Curtin, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Jamie Foxx, Andy Garcia, Gisselle, Woody Harrelson, Tommy Hilfiger, Evander Holyfield, Oscar de la Hoya, Rachel Hunter, Julio Iglesias, LL Cool J, Janet Jackson, Magic Johnson, Spike Lee, Jennifer Lopez, Chuck Mansion, Ricky Martin, Luis Miguel, Julianne Moore, Bill Murray, Prince, Robert Redford, Martin Sheen, Will Smith, Sylvester Stallone, Martha Stewart, Rod Steward, Oliver Stone, The Bee Gees, John Travolta, Gloria Vanderbilt, Oprah Winfrey, and the list goes on.

As a long time Miamian and Realtor, I love sharing places that define the character of our community. This hotel isn’t just historic—it’s alive, relevant, and still setting the standard for luxury living in South Florida. If you appreciate iconic architecture, historic hotels, or are curious about life in Coral Gables, this centennial moment is something special to experience.

Coral Gables: Miami’s International Hub with a Truly Global Soul

Coral Gables Granada Blvd Fountain

Coral Gables: Miami’s International Hub with a Truly Global Soul

Having lived in Miami nearly my entire life — and worked in real estate throughout Coral Gables for over two decades — I’ve watched the city grow into a truly global destination. What many people don’t realize is that Coral Gables quietly sits at the center of Miami’s international business presence.

Beyond its beauty and lifestyle, Coral Gables has become one of South Florida’s most respected international hubs, attracting multinational companies, foreign government offices, global executives, and families from around the world who often choose to live here long-term — not just work here.

A Global Business Presence in a Human-Scale City

Coral Gables may be smaller in size than the City of Miami, but its global footprint is significant. The city is home to more than 120 multinational companies, along with international banks, over 20 government offices and consulates, and regional headquarters serving Latin America, Europe, and the Caribbean.

This concentration of global business within a relatively compact, beautifully planned city is rare. Companies are drawn to Coral Gables for its executive-level office environment, technology and security offerings, its stability and prestige — without the congestion and overdevelopment found elsewhere in Miami-Dade County.

 An International City by Design

 Coral Gables has embraced international connectivity since its founding. One of the original area slogans used by George Merrick included, "Where Your Castles in Spain are Made Real."  Currently the City maintains official international ties with over 21 foreign consulates located here. The Gables is a highlight for the international "sister city" program, with seven friendship and sister cities, plus four in emeritus with cities across Europe, Latin America, and beyond. This program serves to foster long-standing global relationships that extend beyond business into culture, education, and civic exchange.

 This global lens is evident throughout the community — in languages spoken, cultural events, schools, restaurants, and international institutions. Coral Gables doesn’t just attract global residents; it integrates them.

 Why Multinationals Choose Coral Gables

Over the years as a Realtor focusing on the residential side, I’ve worked closely with executives and corporate clients relocating to Miami. When asked why their companies chose Coral Gables over other parts of the county, the answers are remarkably consistent:

• Strategic location within 15 to 20 minutes Miami International Airport and Downtown Miami

• Like-minded community of professionals

• Business-friendly environment and long-term municipal stability

• A sense of global diversity living and working in the area

• Prestige with livability, not high-density chaos

Coral Gables offers international access while still providing a refined, residential atmosphere — a combination that’s difficult to replicate.

What Attracts Executives and Families to Live Here

Once companies establish a presence in Coral Gables, executives often follow. Many of the professionals I work with initially arrive for business and quickly realize this is where they want to settle.

They’re drawn to:

• A diversity of living accommodations from waterfront luxury homes to condominiums in a vibrant walkable downtown

• Strong public and private school options, including University of Miami

• Walkable dining and shopping districts

• Quiet residential neighborhoods just minutes from work

• Tree-lined streets and architectural consistency

Over the years, I’ve worked with relocating families from more than 20 countries, helping them navigate schools, neighborhoods, and housing across Miami — including Coral Gables and surrounding communities. Understanding the cultural, educational, and lifestyle priorities that come with international relocation is essential — and it’s experience you only gain over time.  I have lived abroad in Mexico, and I understand intricacies of moving to a foreign country.

A City Where Global Meets Personal

What truly sets Coral Gables apart is how seamlessly global business blends with daily life. Executives and professionals can attend international meetings, walk to lunch along Miracle Mile, enjoy cultural events, and return home to peaceful, elegant neighborhoods — all within the same thoughtfully designed city.

That balance is rare. And it’s why Coral Gables continues to attract multinational companies, global professionals, and residents from around the world who are looking for more than just a place to live — they’re looking for a place that feels established, refined, and enduring.

Brickell Miami History

Brickell Miami

SPOTLIGHT: "What would Mary Brickell think?" HERE'S A LITTLE HISTORY: On the south side of the Miami River, the native Tequesta people created a pre-historic structure dating back 2700 years. It's believed by some to be their capital center building - Today it's known as the "Miami Circle".

In more recent history, Mary Bulmer Brickell of England made her home on the south side of the River in 1871 with her husband William Brickell. The pair was able to purchase and accumulate land in the area, known as the quieter side. The majority of the action was happening north of the Miami River around Flagler Street in today's Downtown Miami.

Mary Brickell platted the area mostly for mansions and single-family homes for the wealthy. She benefited from the construction of Flagler's railroad. Mary was known for her generosity, helping members of disadvantaged communities to also become property owners. She passed away in January of 1922. What would Mary Brickell think today?

Brickell is now home to many residential towers, and more recently, pre-construction high-end towers with fancy brand names and developer partners such as: The ST Regis Brickell, Dolce and Gabbana, The Residences at the Mandarin Oriental, and the Cipriani Tower. One can still have a piece of the action with many more affordable options in the area.

As someone who's lived in Miami my whole life, I am constantly amazed at how our city has evolved and changed throughout the years. Reach out to me for more info about Brickell and other popular Miami areas. Serving Miami as a Realtor for 21 Years.
