What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Bal Harbour

activities around and excellent restaurants. I enjoy the variety of languages spoken here also. I would prefer less noise. I live near 4 bars so it is always extremely noisy.

It's near a busy highway and close to a few tire shops and a family dollar store and a few Mexican cuisine restaurants in the area

I like going to the beach because it is right in front of my house. Everything is amazing here , I love it.

The park is a great place to go. Sit down Mexican food Restaurants are another great choice. We no longer have a bar in the area

There are many stores and restaurants available in the area. There are auto stores as well and many schools.

There used to be a bar you could walk too. Theres an heb grocery store close by as well. We like to just hang out in the backyard on nice days and nights.
