The Bal Harbour Experience was formally adopted by the Village Council in 2018, and has been periodically redefined since then. It is that distinctive feeling one experiences when living in or visiting our unique, elegant, curated and refined community. Developing funding strategies, initiatives and programming that will further this vision are the focus of program initiatives and the budget development process. The collective vision should drive decision making for the Village into the future.

Values
Delivering the Bal Harbour Experience is guided by our core values. Our values are defined as service, integrity, professional, strategic, and inclusive.
The four main elements, which denote the essence of the Bal Harbour Experience are:
Beautiful Environment
Fusing casual elegance with tranquil coastal living presented through the lens of secluded beaches, lush landscaping, serene public spaces, well detailed sidewalks and rights of way, and jogging paths incorporated into the native environment. These signature amenities reflect the maintenance standards the community expects, and sets the tone which visitors will immediately recognize upon arriving in Bal Harbour, and long to return to once gone.
Destination & Amenities
Elevated experiences and unhurried bliss are the distinctive hallmarks of our Village delivered through exquisite luxury hotels, inspiring culinary selections, and celebrated high-end boutiques and shopping. A waterfront park, iconic Jetty, and our beautiful beaches add to the lure of our breathtaking setting.
Unique & Elegant
Residents and guests balance sun and sea drenched escapes with our curated events designed for discerning connoisseurs of all ages. Creative public art features, our acclaimed Museum Access Program featuring curated tours, culinary festivals, movies under the stars, and excursions to limited engagement events set our enclave apart in delivering a tranquil and refined lifestyle.
Safety
Anchored by our focus on a Community Policing model, where our officers are staffed, trained and motivated to provide excellent service and safety to our residents and guests in a pleasant, engaging, and friendly manner. The visible presence of our officers, investment in state-of-the-art technology and incorporation of innovative policing strategies ensure that our community remains safe at all times, as well as a recognized leader and model in public safety.
This vision rests on a foundation based on:
- Developing and maintaining well designed and modernized public facilities and infrastructure;
- Ensuring that both the perception and reality of safety in our community remains uncompromised; and
- Implementing smart policies and strategic solutions to address the challenges of today and to ensure that we remain a resilient and sustainable community able to protect our future.
Together, these elements define what it means to live, work, visit, and play in Bal Harbour and what makes our community so distinctive.
