What a difference a bridge makes.

In reality, the Carbonell's exclusive tropical island is just a few hundred yards from the fast lane of downtown Miami and the Brickell financial district, but in human distance, it might as well be a thousand miles away.

Highlights include:

The Brickell key baywalk: meandering waterfront promenade accented by public art, native trees and flowering shrubs with narrative markers and a jogger's mile in length. The Brickell key marketplace: European style arcade offering indoor and alfresco dining, hair salon, gourmet groceries, dry cleaning, banking and fresh flowers. The five diamond mandarin oriental: unquestionably Miami's finest hotel — featuring international-class service and design. Award-winning chef, waterfront dining, and a world renowned spa. The village green and children's playground: breathe in the sea breeze and revel in these open spaces presently provided for the enjoyment of island residents.

Our lives are spent in the pursuit of balance, form with function, work with play, mind with body. Symbolically, this dynamic is captured in bronze in the signature sculpture by internationally renowned artist Manuel Carbonell that greets you daily on the arrival plaza. Overall, the Carbonell is conceived by developer Swire properties to provide an environment where maintaining a healthy balance is a pleasure. Where luxury and service share the stage with comfort and physical well-being.
