Shops at Merrick Park

About Shops at Merrick Park

Shops at Merrick Park is one of the best shopping options for travelers who want an upscale experience away from the heavier crowds of Miami Beach and the Design District. The open-air Coral Gables center has a Mediterranean-inspired layout, shaded walkways, landscaped plazas, and a mix of luxury retail, beauty, fitness, and full-service restaurants. It is anchored by Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, and Equinox, which gives it a more grown-up feel than a typical tourist mall. This is a strong stop for visitors staying in Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, South Miami, or Dadeland, and it works especially well as part of a slower shopping-and-dinner day. Pair it with Miracle Mile, the Biltmore area, or the Venetian Pool if you want a Coral Gables itinerary that feels relaxed but still polished. Parking is easier than South Beach, and the center is close to the Douglas Road Metrorail station by a short ride.
