Discover The Abbey at Aventura Just Steps Away
April 1, 2026
At the heart of Aventura is a community that thrives on connection, shared experiences, and a sense of belonging. That spirit continues to take shape at The Abbey at Aventura – a contemporary open‑air destination just steps from Aventura Mall. The Abbey introduces a vibrant combination of retail, dining, wellness, entertainment, and essential services in one modern setting where sunlight and style come together.
More than a collection of storefronts, The Abbey is a lifestyle center shaped by movement, connection, and ease. Open-air walkways, sunlit patios, and a carefully curated mix of concepts create an experience that feels social and unhurried. Palm-lined paths invite guests to explore, gather, and linger. Whether stopping by for a casual lunch with friends or getting in a quick workout, The Abbey offers a seamless continuation of the Aventura Mall experience.
Dining Designed for Every Hour
At The Abbey, dining sets the tone. Mornings begin with familiar rituals and indulgent starts—Starbucks for an easy favorite, and The Salty for its cult‑favorite craft donuts that turn any day into a treat. The atmosphere is relaxed yet energized, designed for lingering over coffee or easing into the day.
As the hours unfold, the destination transitions effortlessly into lunch plans and evening reservations. North Italia brings a modern approach to Italian classics, pairing house‑made pastas and seasonal ingredients with a welcoming, all‑day appeal. JOEY Aventura adds a polished yet approachable dining experience, blending globally inspired flavors with a vibrant social atmosphere. STK Steakhouse anchors the mix with its high‑energy take on the classic steakhouse, while Jarana delivers bold Peruvian flavors rooted in tradition and creativity. Amalfi Llama offers a Mediterranean‑Italian perspective with steakhouse sensibilities, creating an environment equally suited for celebrations and spontaneous nights out. Health‑forward favorites like Sweetgreen and Pura Vida Miami round out the offering with fresh, thoughtfully sourced options that align with a wellness‑minded lifestyle.
And for dessert, Salt & Straw provides the perfect finish—serving inventive, small‑batch ice cream flavors that turn a simple scoop into an occasion, whether as an afternoon pause or a sweet ending to an evening at The Abbey.
Shop, Stroll, Enjoy
Shopping at The Abbey feels intentional and approachable, designed to be explored at an easy, unhurried pace.

Adding a layer of true luxury, Hästens introduces its world‑renowned handcrafted mattresses—made from natural materials like horsehair and crafted using generations‑old techniques—bringing an unparalleled sleep and wellness experience to the destination.
Wellness, Woven In
Wellness at The Abbey is designed to feel intuitive—woven seamlessly into the rhythm of your day rather than set apart from it. Whether you’re arriving for a workout, a reset, or a moment of self‑care, the experience feels elevated yet effortless. Anatomy Fitness anchors the offering with its Miami‑born approach to performance and recovery, combining state‑of‑the‑art training, refined amenities, and a distinctly design‑forward environment.
For those drawn to movement with energy and edge, Tremble introduces a high‑intensity, low‑impact workout that blends strength, cardio, and Pilates‑inspired movement on reformers.

Mindful movement continues with Pure Barre, offering a balanced approach to strength and flexibility through small, targeted movements that build muscle endurance and improve posture.
Recovery, beauty, and longevity are thoughtfully woven throughout the experience. Next Health delivers personalized, technology‑driven wellness services, while Skin Laundry brings science‑backed laser facials and results‑oriented skincare into the everyday. Wairua Beauty rounds out the self‑care offering with holistic treatments rooted in relaxation and renewal, creating space for pause and restoration. Expanding into specialized care, CCRM Fertility provides world‑class reproductive medicine and supportive, compassionate guidance for families on their fertility journeys, while Sher Dental offers comprehensive dental services focused on advanced care, comfort, and long‑term oral health. Completing the wellness mix, One Medical provides modern primary care in a thoughtfully designed setting, making it easier to prioritize health as part of daily life.
The Abbey’s story is still unfolding. New concepts and curated retail experiences are on the horizon, along with community‑driven moments designed to bring people together—like The Abbey Collective Market, held every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., bringing fresh flavors, local finds, and neighborhood energy to the open‑air setting. Supporting the rhythm of daily life, Industrious provides flexible, modern workspace just steps away, while Bank of America offers essential financial services that anchor convenience within the community.
Together, Aventura Mall and The Abbey at Aventura offer a more expansive vision of lifestyle—one that moves fluidly between indoors and out, fashion and food, discovery and ease. It’s not just a destination to visit, but a place to return to, again and again.
