Situated on the beautiful eastern shore of Biscayne Bay, Normandy Isles has become one of the most popular residential enclaves in Miami Beach. The northern side of the island mixes modest homes with classic garden apartments, many of which are available for rent overlooking the placid Normandy Waterway. On the southern side, multi-family buildings erected during the 1940s display the artistic skills of famous architects like Norman Giller and Gilbert Fain.

Two major roads bisect the hospitable neighborhood, 71st Street and Normandy Drive, where residents can find a thriving commercial area filled with banks, gas stations, stores, and popular restaurants. Close proximity to Miami Beach's North Beach is a major part of the neighborhood's allure. Normandy Isles also sits just nine miles northeast of Downtown Miami, affording many residents short commute and travel times.
