WHERE SCULPTURES SET THE STAGE FOR Luxurious Living

The entrances to Miromar Lakes Beach & Golf Club are more than just a gateway; they're an artistic experience that sets the tone for this extraordinary community. The grand sculptures at the south and north gates not only welcome residents home but also make a powerful first impression, showcasing that Miromar Lakes is truly a place like no other.

Continued on page 2

These impressive sculptures, which blend timeless elegance with contemporary flair, reflect the European-inspired architecture and modern design found throughout Miromar Lakes. The unifying element of water connects these masterpieces, hinting at a lifestyle centered around the 700-acre freshwater lake, three miles of pristine white sandy beaches, and a community that values artistic expression.

“Art elevates the residential experience,”
“It brings joy and inspiration to those who experience it.”

At the south entrance, residents are welcomed by a multi-tiered fountain inspired by Italy's iconic designs, showcasing life-sized figures symbolizing “The Four Seasons” amidst flowing water. Meanwhile, the north gate is adorned with “New Beginnings,” a stunning 26-foot-tall contemporary sculpture commissioned by Antonier and crafted by renowned Swiss sculptor Housi Knecht. This impressive piece, which weighs 10,000 pounds and spans 26 feet wide, features water cascading over a seven-foot illuminated sphere, symbolizing the fresh starts and new lifestyles that residents embrace at Miromar Lakes.

As you enter the

Beach Clubhouse,

look up to admire a unique masterpiece—a hand-blown glass chandelier crafted by an Italian artist in London, inspired by the breathtaking vision of the Fjords of Norway, adding a touch of wonder to the living room. Further down the hallway, you step into the elegant domed dining room, where a second chandelier, discovered through a worldwide search, illuminates the space with crystal elegance.

At The Marina on the Peninsula,

Antonier commissioned a distinctive kinetic sculpture titled "Dare to Be," created by nationally renowned artist Barton Rubenstein. This sculpture, designed to move with the wind, embodies the dynamic interaction between the environment and the community.

"Dare to Be" mirrors the vibrant spirit of Miromar Lakes, encouraging residents to connect with the natural beauty that surrounds them.

With its emphasis on artistic expression and luxurious living, Miromar Lakes Beach & Golf Club offers residents an unparalleled experience that is as beautiful as it is inspiring.

Short-Game Practice Area Renovated!

Golfers are coming to expect more from their practice time. In an effort to satisfy that need, we’ve developed an elaborate short-game area designed to mimic actual playing conditions for those looking to hone their games. The short game facility has been grassed with Bimini Bermuda turf, has various pitching distances and angles to new, authentic Tiff Eagle greens. Greenside bunkers too, are styled and built consistent with those encountered on the course.

The overall area short-game facility has been increased by more than 50%. Chipping green surface area increased from 5,500 sq. ft. to 11,200 sq. ft. by adding a second chipping green. One practice sand trap is now three, including an incredible stacked sod wall bunker. We’re always trying to enhance the member experience and with this renovation, we’ve altered the short-game area to reflect the shots golfers will encounter during their round.
