Exclusive to Bill Hansen Catering, the historic Villa Woodbine is a private Mansion located in Coconut Grove. Bill Hansen has been South Florida’s premiere caterer since 1980 and is renowned for his exceptional food and service.
A treasure of a bygone era, Villa Woodbine was designed by famed architect Walter de Garmo in 1930. The Mediterranean Renaissance open air design features large loggias, Spanish arches, colorful Havana tile, many original fixtures and Cuban handcrafted furnishings. The focus is the fountain in the open coral rock courtyard. Guests walk through the round top doorway and are transported back to the tropical sway of classic old Miami and an oasis of rare beauty.
Since 1983, many special and memorable occasions have been held here. Dining is set in the private, lush garden – magical with romantic lighting in the large spreading oak trees and surrounding foliage. Notable people have enjoyed the ambiance of Villa Woodbine including Mary Wilson of the Supremes, the Village People, Mel Fisher, and Pavarotti. Life magazine featured the dining room and characterized it as the “place where the Bay of Pigs was planned.” Today, Villa Woodbine opens its doors to those who seek a memorable experience unlike any other in Miami.
