Three miles from Miami International Airport and six miles from downtown, this hotel on a private peninsula overlooks placid
Blue Lagoon, a large freshwater lake.
Although just 3 miles from Miami International Airport, the hotel offers a secluded, resort-like setting. It stands
on a private peninsula on the Blue Lagoon, a 100-acre freshwater lake. The Hilton's meeting rooms and convention services
draw business types during the week.
Keep an eye out for wildlife: Four parrots offer a colorful welcome at the front door. Koi fish swim under the walkway
to the Coral Café. Aquariums dot the restaurant areas. Out back, there's a walkway on a spit of land leading to a gazebo
overlooking the lagoon. This bit of land harbors birds, lizards, and other creatures.
Rather shop? The concierge can call a courtesy shuttle bus from the Dolphin Mall.
