La Gorce, located between Indian Creek Drive and the Atlantic Ocean, is a residential and golf-adjacent Miami Beach neighborhood with Mediterranean Revival streetscapes and a calm, canal-lined setting. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the La Gorce Country Club entrance on Alton Road, where palms, gated drives, and passing cyclists set a measured tempo. Architectural cues lean toward stucco facades, arched openings, and low-slung mid-century homes tucked behind hedges. Water views appear along the Indian Creek edge, while beach access and dunes sit to the east. Daily rhythms orbit around outdoor recreation, from fairways to shoreline walks. Dining and culture cluster nearby along 41st Street rather than inside the neighborhood grid.
