Find Sanctuary in Nature at Wildlife Gardens Just 30 minutes from South Beach, step into a serene haven at Wildlife Gardens, a private sanctuary nestled within 5 acres of lush Florida wilderness. Here, the noise of the world fades, replaced by the soothing sounds of rustling palms, cascading water, and the melodic calls of exotic wildlife. Wander through shaded jungle paths, past tranquil ponds alive with turtles and koi, and under the canopy of native trees where vibrant birds and curious primates make their home. Rustic wooden shelters with thatched roofs and winding trails create a seamless blend of architecture and environment inviting you to slow down and reconnect. At the heart of the sanctuary lies our peaceful Amphitheater, a quiet clearing beside the water’s edge, where the natural world provides both backdrop and inspiration. Every space at Wildlife Gardens is designed to restore, inspire, and transport you, whether you're here for a private retreat, a creative project, or a meaningful celebration.
