APRIL/MAY/JUNE SPRING 2014 OFFICIAL RESIDENT NEWSLETTER BEST COMMUNITY IN FLORIDA Miromar Lakes Beach & Golf Club won the 2014 Bliss Award ™ for Best Community in Florida. Miromar Lakes was selected after 241 anonymous on-site visits by independent evaluators to master planned communities in the Southeastern United States. In the formal review evaluators wrote, “Miromar Lakes is a neighborhood where Europe meets South Beach modernism. Italian-style bridges and tall Royal Palm trees compliment the beauty of this gated Florida lake community. After visitors pass through the grandiose entrance gate, they’re greeted by white sandy beaches and beach cabanas draped in white fabric. The community’s 39,000 square foot beach clubhouse is one of the most luxurious we’ve seen. The lake is a freshwater playground dotted with sailboats, paddle boards and kayaks.” The opening of the new Marina on the Peninsula brought hundreds of residents, local dignitaries and invited guests to the nautical themed celebration! The event included the ceremonial boat christening of “La Dolce Vita”, the European-style water taxi and the unveiling of the commissioned signature sculpture “Dare to be,” a kinetic work of art set in motion by the wind created by nationally renowned artist Barton Rubenstein. The Marina on the Peninsula is a unique destination already popular with residents for bocce ball, boating, fitness, meditation, relaxation and social events.
