FRUIT & SPICE

Walking through the grounds of the Fruit & Spice Park, you’ll pass through a dense bamboo forest whistling in the wind, coconut trees exploding with yellow coconuts and banana groves sprouting purple baby bananas. Sample the exotic fruits grown on-site, like sapodilla, lychee, prickly pear or black sapote—known as “chocolate pudding fruit” for its taste and consistency. Located just 40 miles south of 1 Hotel South Beach, this one-of-a-kind tropical botanic garden grows more than 500 varieties of exotic fruits, herbs, spices and nuts from around the world.

The idea for the park originated in 1935 as a live-teaching lab to educate the public on how to grow tropical plants. A local park director dreamed of showcasing exotic botanicals from all areas of the globe thriving in the tropical South Florida climate. The break out of World War II halted plans and the idea was put on hold, but by 1944 the park was underway.

Today the park has grown to 37 acres, with over 500 plant and tree varieties organized by region of origin. The walking path winds through avocado groves from Central America, otherworldly Baobab trees from Africa and Longan trees from Asia.

There are over 150 varieties of mangos, 75 varieties of bananas and 40 varieties of grapes, as well as an abundance of less familiar fruits like jackfruit and carambola.

Take an interactive tram tour with a knowledgeable guide, where you can see, touch, taste and smell the fruits and plants. The grounds feature beautiful water gardens, with space for picnics and leisurely strolls. Before you go, stop for a bite at The Mango Café, an old schoolhouse and coral rock building that recall Florida’s early pioneer history.

Visit this unique Florida gem throughout the year for special events, festivals and workshops, and to sample a new crop of fruit in season.

Stop by concierge to plan your excursion.

MOON RITUALS AT 1 HOTELS

Our ancestors honored the cycles of nature and the changing of the seasons throughout time, using the positions of the sun, moon and stars to navigate and guide them. In our modern age we have gotten out of touch with the rhythm of nature, partly as a result of global light pollution and the disruption of our natural circadian rhythms from the constant light of our computer and phone screens.

But there is a renewed interest in the cycles of the moon and its effect on the way we feel. At 1 Hotels we like to honor this monthly waxing and waning through special rituals and activities at the new moon, when the sky is darkest, and the full moon, when the moon is at its brightest. These time old rituals inspire us to connect deeper with the earth and remember the teachings of our heritage.

Every month on the evening of the new moon, join us for Dark Sky. We dim the lights and set out candles in the lobby to reduce our impact, raise awareness for global light pollution and honor the celestial cycles of our planet. The dark night of the new moon is the perfect time to set intentions for the coming month.

In South Beach, we celebrate the arrival of the full moon with a rooftop party under the moonlight. Stop by the 1 Rooftop for a drink and dance to the tunes of our guest DJ. Shake off any negative energy you’ve accumulated throughout the month and feel refreshed and renewed.

By honoring the coming and going of the moon each month, we celebrate the present moment. Take the time to be a part of the event every month.

Check your LIFE AT 1 calendar for details.

Come to the rooftop for a celebration of the full moon.

BE AT 1 WITH YOURSELF

Take a mindful moment for yourself with a walk around the grounds of

The Ancient Spanish Monastery , and be transpor ted back in t ime to medieval Europe.

One of the oldest bui ldings in the Western Hemisphere, the or iginal proper ty

was purchased in Spain by Wil l iam Randolph Hearst in 1925. It was dismantled stone by

stone, shipped to the United States and placed in storage for many years,

eventual ly reassembled in Nor th Miami. The beautiful grounds feature gardens with

walkways l ined with lanterns, with statues and fountains spread throughout.

S it in the chapel of St. Bernard de Clairvaux and you’ l l be transpor ted back to 12th

century Spain. It ’s the perfect place for a moment of unhurr ied

tranqui l ity away from the raucous nightl i fe and bust l ing

crowds of South Beach.
