Swire Properties Breaks Ground on The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami on Brickell Key

Swire Properties has broken ground on The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, marking the start of construction on one of the nation’s most significant new ultra-luxury developments. Designed by world renowned, New York based architects Kohn Pedersen Fox (KPF), the project will unfold across two architecturally distinct towers on Brickell Key.

Swire Properties has broken ground on The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, marking the start of construction on one of the nation’s most significant new ultra-luxury developments. Designed by world renowned, New York based architects Kohn Pedersen Fox (KPF), the project will unfold across two architecturally distinct towers – a 33-story North Tower featuring what is poised to be Mandarin Oriental’s North American flagship hotel with 121 guest rooms, alongside 70 private residences and 28 turnkey Hotel Collection residences; and a 66-story South Tower dedicated to 228 private residences.

Advancing on schedule for delivery in 2030, The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami marks Swire Properties' largest luxury residential development to date and its first branded residential development globally. The groundbreaking comes as total sales across the North and South Towers have surpassed $1.7 billion, driven largely by sustained demand from domestic buyers.

In 2026 alone, The Residences has generated more than $620 million in sales, including a record three-month summer period that delivered more than $150 million in new sales, underscoring continued buyer engagement during a season when luxury residential activity often moderates. The North Tower has reached 25% sold since opening the Signature Gallery in May, while the South Tower is now 80% sold.

Anchored by what is destined to be Mandarin Oriental’s North American flagship hotel, The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami combines private homeownership with the brand’s globally recognized standards of hospitality, wellness programming and culinary experiences. The hotel is central to the development’s value proposition, ensuring that the residential experience is continuously elevated by Mandarin Oriental’s signature service culture and dedicated colleagues.

"Breaking ground on The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami marks another important milestone in Swire Properties' long-term vision for Brickell Key," said Tim Blackburn, Chief Executive of Swire Properties. “Our strong sales momentum reflects the project’s differentiated value in South Florida’s competitive luxury market—driven by its prime waterfront location, the development team’s track record, the global brand recognition of Mandarin Oriental, and world-class design partners.”

Earlier this year, the project’s two crown penthouses sold to separate buyers for $49.9 million each, totaling nearly $100 million and establishing mainland Miami records for both condominium sale price and price per square foot, at approximately $6,300.

Set on Brickell Key, the exclusive 44-acre island enclave combines waterfront privacy, panoramic views and immediate access to Brickell and downtown Miami. Beginning with the evolution of Brickell Key continuing through the development of Brickell City Centre, the company has maintained a long-term vision for placemaking at scale. The groundbreaking comes less than six months after the controlled demolition of the former Mandarin Oriental, Miami hotel, which paved the way for the waterfront site's next chapter.

“This groundbreaking marks an exciting new chapter for Mandarin Oriental and our return to Brickell Key,” said Laurent Kleitman, Group Chief Executive of Mandarin Oriental. “Our ambition is to create an exceptional hotel and residences that bring together memorable experiences, outstanding craftsmanship and the legendary service that defines Mandarin Oriental. Today marks an important step in bringing that vision to life and creating an enduring connection with Miami and its community.”

The project also brings together a globally acclaimed design team. Private residences in the North Tower are imagined by renowned AD100 designer Laura Gonzalez, defined by warmth, craftsmanship and richly layered detailing. The South Tower’s interiors are envisioned by acclaimed AD100 designer Tristan Auer, whose modern vision redefines contemporary luxury through a timeless, sophisticated approach deeply attuned to the residential experience. Landscape architecture by Thailand-based SHMA brings a lush, nature-driven vision to the development’s outdoor spaces, creating a seamless connection between the residences, amenities and waterfront setting.

Designed to embrace seamless indoor-outdoor living, residences in the North Tower range from two- to four-bedrooms while residences in the South Tower range from two- to five-bedrooms – all featuring expansive living spaces framed by floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors and thoughtfully oriented to capture sweeping views of the ocean, Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline. Private elevators and entry lobbies provide an added sense of arrival and privacy. Kitchens feature custom Italian cabinetry, state of-the-art appliances and natural stone countertops, while bathrooms are appointed with marble flooring, natural stone vanities and private water closets in each primary suite.

Seamlessly connecting the North and South Towers is a 100,000-square-foot, multi-tiered, resort-style amenity podium serviced by Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group and defined by the brand’s legendary standards. The extensive amenity collection includes state-of-the-art fitness and wellness facilities, resort-style pools cascading across multiple levels with private cabanas, wellness cabanas for outdoor treatments, dining pavilions, warm and cold plunge pools, curated social lounges, a business lounge with private meeting rooms and conference suite, library and coffee bar, a multi-use sports court, game room with billiards and indoor golf simulator, private screening lounge and dedicated children’s club. Residents of the North Tower will also enjoy privileged access and connectivity to Mandarin Oriental, Miami, including the brand’s signature spa and waterfront dining, along with 24/7 personalized services provided by a dedicated Mandarin Oriental residential team.

Pricing for the remaining South Tower residences begins at $7 million, with remaining North Tower residences starting at $4 million. Fortune Development Sales is exclusively managing sales for The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami.

Cipriani Residences Miami Tops Off Construction, Surpasses 80% Sold Ahead of Summer 2027 Delivery

Cipriani Residences Miami, the Cipriani brand's first ground-up residential development in North America, has officially topped off construction, reaching its full height of approximately 950 feet and marking a major milestone ahead of its anticipated Summer 2027 delivery. Miami’s skyline has been fast changing with the other tallest completed towers including Aston Martin Residences rising 817’, One Thousand Museum by Zaha Hadid Architects rising 706’, and Paramount Miami Worldcenter rising 700’.

Cipriani Residences Miami, the Cipriani brand's first ground-up residential development in North America, has officially topped off construction, reaching its full height of approximately 950 feet and marking a major milestone ahead of its anticipated Summer 2027 delivery.

Miami’s skyline has been fast changing with the other tallest completed towers including Aston Martin Residences rising 817’, One Thousand Museum by Zaha Hadid Architects rising 706’, and Paramount Miami Worldcenter rising 700’. Under construction in Brickell is The Residences at 1428 Brickell which will rise 861’; and, in Downtown Miami are The Waldorf Astoria Hotel & Residences Miami, which will be Miami’s first completed supertall with construction closing in on 1,049’, and Okan Tower which will rise 902’.

Now more than 80% sold, the 85-story landmark has attracted buyers from more than 30 countries across the Northeastern United States, the West Coast, Latin America and Europe, reinforcing both the enduring global appeal of the Cipriani brand and Miami's position as one of the world's premier destinations for high-end real estate investment and residency.

With the tower now at full height, construction remains on schedule for Summer 2027 occupancy, making Cipriani Residences Miami one of the only ultra-luxury residential towers in Brickell expected to deliver this coming year.

"For nearly a century, our family, inspired by our Italian heritage and traditions, has welcomed people from around the world with the same philosophy: to create places where elegance, service and hospitality come naturally," said Giuseppe Cipriani. "I am excited to see this spirit continue through Cipriani Residences Miami. It is not simply a residential tower, but a home where people can experience the comfort of simple pleasures, timeless style and effortless living."

The topping off represents more than a construction milestone. It reflects Miami's continued emergence as one of the world's leading destinations for global wealth and long-term investment. Buyers have come from more than 30 countries, with particularly strong demand across the Northeastern United States, the West Coast, Latin America and Europe, as well as established Cipriani markets including London, Milan, Monte Carlo and Mexico. Increasingly, purchasers are choosing Miami as a primary residence rather than a seasonal destination, underscoring the city's evolution into a global financial and cultural capital.

"This milestone represents far more than reaching the top of the tower. It reflects the continued evolution of Miami as one of the world's premier destinations for high-end real estate," said Camilo Miguel Jr., Founder and CEO of Mast Capital. "As we celebrate reaching full height and surpassing 80 percent in sales, we continue to see extraordinary validation from buyers around the world who recognize the exceptional quality of what we have created alongside our partners. Cipriani Residences Miami embodies our vision of delivering a truly world-class residential experience where exceptional design, legendary hospitality and disciplined execution come together to establish a new benchmark for luxury living."

Designed by Arquitectonica with interiors by 1508 London, Cipriani Residences Miami brings nearly a century of Italian hospitality into a collection of 397 residences inspired by the legendary service and understated elegance that have defined the Cipriani family since Harry's Bar first opened in Venice in 1931.

Residents will enjoy more than 50,000 square feet of private amenities, including signature Cipriani dining experiences, a resort-style pool deck, wellness facilities, a holistic spa, private screening room, children's play spaces, business lounges and the exclusive 37th-floor speakeasy overlooking Biscayne Bay.

"Reaching the top of the structure is a significant achievement because it brings buyers one step closer to taking ownership of their homes," said Scott Moss, CEO of Moss Construction. "Constructing one of the tallest residential towers in the country requires extraordinary coordination, engineering expertise and craftsmanship. Every milestone reflects the commitment of hundreds of professionals working together to deliver a building that will define Miami's skyline and set a new benchmark for residential construction. With occupancy beginning next summer, buyers can now see that vision becoming reality."

As the brand's first ground-up residential development in North America, Cipriani Residences Miami represents the evolution of nearly a century of hospitality into a permanent residential offering. Combined with Miami's continued emergence as one of the world's foremost destinations for international business and global wealth, the development has established itself as one of the city's defining residential addresses.

Occupancy is anticipated in Summer 2027. Sales and marketing for the project are exclusively represented by Fortune Development Sales. Residences are priced from $1.8 million, with The Canaletto Collection beginning at $4.1 million.

Cipriani Residences Miami Rises to Become The Tallest Residential Tower South of Manhattan Passing 872 Feet

Cipriani Residences Miami, the first ground-up residential development in the Americas by the iconic Cipriani brand, has reached 872 feet, officially becoming the tallest residential tower south of New York City. As it continues its ascent toward an anticipated height of approximately 950 feet, the tower marks a defining inflection point in Miami’s evolution into one of the most consequential luxury residential markets in the United States.

Cipriani Residences Miami, the first ground-up residential development in the Americas by the iconic Cipriani brand, has reached 872 feet, officially becoming the tallest residential tower south of New York City. As it continues its ascent toward an anticipated height of approximately 950 feet, the tower marks a defining inflection point in Miami’s evolution into one of the most consequential luxury residential markets in the United States. The project is expected to be completed in 2027.

Developed by Mast Capital, the milestone is being achieved as construction advances into the building’s final levels, including the forthcoming Penthouse Collection. In surpassing the 868-foot Panorama Tower, Cipriani Residences Miami establishes a new benchmark for residential height in both Miami and the state of Florida, placing it among a limited group of towers redefining the scale and ambition of vertical living beyond traditional gateway cities. The building has advanced at a notable pace, with construction rising at approximately one residential level every several working days, underscoring both execution and sustained demand.

“This milestone reflects a disciplined commitment to craftsmanship and the conviction that buildings of this scale must offer far more than height,” said Camilo Miguel Jr., Founder and CEO of Mast Capital. “What we are seeing is not only the physical rise of Cipriani Residences Miami, but the continued ascent of Miami itself. As global wealth, leading financial institutions, and major companies establish a permanent presence here, expectations around design, service, and overall quality have fundamentally evolved. Our responsibility has been to respond with a level of precision, rigor, and execution that defines its own standard. The residences at the pinnacle of this tower embody that ambition in its most refined expression.”

Cipriani Residences Miami now stands as one of Brickell’s most vertically ambitious residential towers, introducing a scale and presence more often associated with established markets such as Manhattan. Its prominence within the skyline reflects a broader shift in buyer expectations, where elevation, discretion, and a fully integrated standard of service have become defining elements of contemporary residential living. The project has already achieved significant sales to date, with a globally diversified buyer base spanning the United States, Latin America, and Europe.

Now reaching the level of The Penthouse Collection, the project enters its most rarefied phase. With architecture by Arquitectonica, under the direction of Bernardo Fort-Brescia, Cipriani Residences Miami will feature 397 one- to four-bedroom homes with interiors by 1508 London, reflecting the brand’s signature elegance through a refined palette of warm neutrals and rich wood tones. Positioned at the tower’s highest elevations, The Canaletto Collection, a limited offering of ultra-luxury homes, represents the ultimate expression of the building, where scale, craftsmanship, and Cipriani’s hospitality ethos converge. The most exceptional and final inventory sits at the very top, offering unobstructed views of the city skyline and Biscayne Bay as well as a level of privacy, refinement, and scarcity rarely achieved in the market.

“In conceiving Cipriani Residences Miami, we were inspired by the timeless connection between Venice and the water,” said Bernardo Fort-Brescia, Founding Principal of Arquitectonia. “The sweeping curving glass terraces reflect both the sky and Biscayne Bay, allowing the tower to feel connected to its South Florida setting. And as the tower reaches the skies, it dissolves into a series of terraces that define a unique profile.”

Cipriani Residences Miami offers a hospitality-led lifestyle anchored by more than 50,000 square feet of amenities, including a resident-only restaurant, private dining experiences, a 37th-floor speakeasy, a resort-style pool deck with cabanas, and a comprehensive wellness program. Residents will also benefit from Cipriani’s signature service, including in-home dining and concierge offerings, extending the brand’s legacy into a fully residential setting.

Set within Brickell, the city’s financial core, the tower rises at the center of one of the most dynamic economic transformations in the United States. Over the past several years, Miami has attracted an unprecedented influx of high-net-worth individuals, institutional capital, and global firms, with more than 300 financial companies now operating in the region. This sustained migration has repositioned Brickell as a true international business and lifestyle hub, where demand for primary residences continues to accelerate.

Sales and marketing efforts for the project are handled exclusively by Fortune Development Sales, with Residences starting from $1.8 million and The Canaletto Collection Residences starting from $4.1 million.

Swire Properties Implodes Mandarin Oriental Hotel on Brickell Key Paving The Way For The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami

Miami’s Brickell Key is entering a new era with The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, an ultra-luxury development comprising private residences and a new hotel, following the successful demolition of the building that housed the city’s former Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

Miami’s Brickell Key is entering a new era with The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, an ultra-luxury development comprising private residences and a new hotel, following the successful demolition of the building that housed the city’s former Mandarin Oriental Hotel. The milestone marks a significant step forward for the new development, which has achieved $1.3 billion in residential sales – including last month’s record-breaking dual penthouse sales totaling $100 million – ahead of groundbreaking later this year.

“Mandarin Oriental has been a defining part of Brickell Key for more than two decades, and the brand’s legacy will live on with the development of two towers set to transform residential living and hospitality in Miami,” said Dave Martin, President of Swire Properties. “With demolition now behind us, our team is eager to get going with vertical construction as we entertain buyers from across the U.S. and around the world.”

The controlled-implosion of the 23-story hotel and its adjacent six-story parking structure took place in a matter of seconds on the morning of Sunday, April 12th, clearing the site for The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, which will feature 228 private residences in the South Tower and 70 private residences, 28 turnkey hotel collection residences, and what is destined to be the brand’s new North America flagship hotel with 121 keys in the North Tower.

The existing structure came down in a controlled manner as part of a carefully orchestrated demolition process that required nearly two years of planning and coordination among specialized experts – including The BG Group LLC, Controlled Demolition Inc., and Moss Construction – working in collaboration with the City of Miami.

See PROFILEmiami video coverage of the implosion:

At the start of 2025, Swire Properties launched a comprehensive community outreach and safety initiative to support the implosion process. This included more than 30 meetings with Brickell Key residents and the broader Brickell community, distribution of protective materials to neighboring buildings, and detailed safety guidance for nearby residential, commercial, and restaurant operators. On-site measures included the installation of perimeter container walls and temporary barges, as well as the deployment of vibration and air quality monitors across Brickell Key. In addition, Swire and its team of experts conducted a pre-implosion survey of Biscayne Bay, which will be compared against post-implosion findings to ensure the marine environment remains unaffected.

Crews will now undertake a debris removal process from the site that will last up to six months, with material set to be cleared from the site in a tightly choreographed manner. Preparations for groundbreaking are underway, with the groundbreaking ceremony expected to take place later this year. Construction is expected to last approximately four years, with delivery anticipated in 2030.

Nearly 1,000' (300m) Suptertall Cipriani Residences Miami Reaches Halfway Milestone In Brickell, Now Standing 44 Stories

Cipriani Residences Miami, the first-ever ground-up residential building by the world-renowned Cipriani brand in the Americas, has surpassed a major construction milestone underscoring not only its rapid vertical ascent but also its emergence as Miami’s definitive premier tower.

Cipriani Residences Miami, the first-ever ground-up residential building by the world-renowned Cipriani brand in the Americas, has surpassed a major construction milestone underscoring not only its rapid vertical ascent but also its emergence as Miami’s definitive premier tower. With construction, overseen by Moss & Associates, now surpassing its halfway point and standing at 44 stories, the 80-story tower has completed its 37th floor, which will be home to an exclusive resident-only Cipriani speakeasy.

Reaching this milestone illustrates the building’s strong focus on a curated, experiential lifestyle, and places the project on track to become the tallest building in Brickell. Upon completion in 2028, Cipriani Residences Miami will rise close to an astounding 1,000 feet, ushering in a new era of supertall residential towers in the neighborhood.

“This is a pivotal moment that represents far more than the halfway mark toward the building’s crown,” said Camilo Miguel, Jr., CEO and Founder of Mast Capital. “With the completion of the 37th floor, we are celebrating our work redefining luxury living through record-setting vertical scale and lifestyle-driven design. We are also proving that our ambition is matched by our commitment to a swift delivery, as construction moves perfectly on schedule.”

At the heart of Cipriani’s 50,000-square-foot amenity collection lies a hidden gem: the speakeasy — an intimate, cinematic retreat that sets the tone for a lifestyle steeped in sophistication. Envisioned as a discreet social club in the sky, this resident-only lounge will serve signature Cipriani cocktails and refined light bites in an atmosphere of sophistication and connection. Here, culinary artistry merges effortlessly with spaces dedicated to wellness, leisure, and entertainment. Beyond the speakeasy, residents gain privileged access to a private Cipriani restaurant, 24/7 in-home dining, a resort-style pool deck, luxury spa with treatment rooms and sauna, pickleball court, golf simulator, screening room, and more—all conceived to create a fully immersive residential lifestyle. Every detail has been meticulously conceived to envelop residents in a world where elegance, comfort, and Cipriani’s legendary heritage converge.

The tower is climbing one level every three working days, one of the fastest vertical construction paces in Miami’s history. Behind this momentum is a next-generation, self-climbing slip form system, an advanced hydraulic technology that allows the building’s core to ascend continuously without crane dependency. This method maximizes efficiency and precision, enabling the tower to achieve supertall status safely and at speed.

In a district where land is scarce and values are soaring, Mast Capital’s decision to build upward reflects both necessity and ambition, transforming verticality into a new symbol of the city’s economic and cultural rise.

“In a neighborhood defined by skyrocketing land values and finite development opportunities, we chose to look upward and embrace verticality as both a necessity and an opportunity,” continued Camilo Miguel, Jr. “The result is a soaring architectural landmark that is a symbol of Miami’s global ascent as a leading hub for wealth, culture, and innovation.”

As Cipriani Residences Miami races skyward, its dual narrative—engineering excellence and experiential luxury—positions it not just as a building, but as a new status symbol for Miami. By marrying record-setting vertical scale with Cipriani’s legendary service, Mast Capital is delivering a project that will forever mark Miami’s ascent on the global stage.

Cipriani Residences Miami features 397 one- to four-bedroom residences with interiors designed by 1508 London to be aesthetically genuine to the renowned hospitality brand’s distinguished style. The top 18 floors feature The Canaletto Collection, a limited assemblage of six penthouses and 74 ultra-luxury homes. The Canaletto Collection offers priority access to amenities like the private speakeasy, exclusive global concierge services by BHB, and for purchase custom furniture and accessory packages crafted by 1508 London in two distinct styles.

Sales and marketing efforts for the project are handled exclusively by Fortune Development Sales, with Residences starting from $1.7 million and The Canaletto Collection Residences starting from $4.1 million.

Villa Miami Completes Concrete Pour On Landmark Waterfront Tower in Edgewater

Marking a significant milestone for one of Miami’s most anticipated residential towers, Villa Miami completed its concrete foundation pour on May 9. Moss Construction led the 14-hour pour that involved more than 3,400 cubic yards of concrete and 2,095 tons of steel to form the tower’s foundation, further accelerating momentum on the 650-foot waterfront landmark

Marking a significant milestone for one of Miami’s most anticipated residential towers, Villa Miami completed its concrete foundation pour on May 9. Moss Construction led the 14-hour pour that involved more than 3,400 cubic yards of concrete and 2,095 tons of steel to form the tower’s foundation, further accelerating momentum on the 650-foot waterfront landmark rising in Miami’s Edgewater neighborhood, on track for delivery in 2027. Construction on the tower is advancing swiftly with the concrete pour being completed four weeks ahead of schedule.

“The strength of today’s luxury market is defined by discernment as buyers are seeking more than just a home,” said David Martin, CEO of Terra. “The pace of progress at Villa Miami speaks volumes about the demand for a truly differentiated product and the strength of Miami’s real estate fundamentals. This milestone marks the beginning of a tower that will reshape the Edgewater skyline and redefine luxury living in Miami.”

The copper-clad, 56-story tower introduces a limited collection of just 70 half- and full-floor residences, offering a residential experience defined by world-class service, design and culinary excellence. Villa Miami is the first-ever residential tower branded by the globally celebrated Major Food Group and marks the inaugural collaboration between Miami legacy developer David Martin’s Terra and One Thousand Group.

“This concrete pour marks the moment Villa Miami shifts from vision to vertical reality,” said Kevin Venger, Co-Founder of One Thousand Group. “We’re building a legacy with a team that is pushing the boundaries of design and delivering at the highest standard, from the ground up.”

The pour recruited 43 concrete trucks, operating in a coordinated rotation throughout the day. Structural work is being led by Moss Construction, with architectural design spearheaded by ODP Architects under the leadership of Kurt Dannwolf. Villa Miami is distinguished by its striking copper-colored exoskeleton—an architectural statement conceived by ODP and engineered by global structural design firm DeSimone.

Located at 710 NE 29th Street, Villa Miami broke ground in December 2024 and secured a $285 million construction loan provided by TYKO Capital, a commercial real estate private equity and credit platform backed by Elliott Investment Management and led by Adi Chugh.

While construction continues, the project has already drawn significant buyer interest. With residences starting at $5.5 million and ranging from 3,000 to over 6,000 square feet, Villa Miami’s full- and half-floor homes cater to discerning buyers looking for estate-style residences in the sky with round-the-clock service and programming.

Villa Miami’s interiors are curated by Vicky Charles of Charles & Co., with landscaping by Enzo Enea. The tower’s private amenity suite, known as the Copper Club, spans multiple floors and is exclusively curated by Major Food Group to offer a high-touch, members-only experience.

The tower’s development team is behind some of Miami’s most iconic residential towers. Terra, led by David Martin, recently delivered Five Park Miami Beach and Mr. C Residences Coconut Grove. One Thousand Group’s portfolio includes the Zaha Hadid-designed One Thousand Museum tower and the firm recently acquired a nearby Edgewater site for a Kohn Pedersen Fox-designed project.

The project was developed by Optimum Asset Management USA. Monaco Yacht Club & Residences offers just thirty-nine luxurious waterfront residences delivered fully finished with curated interiors by two of the most esteemed names in design, Piero Lissoni and Arquitectonica.

In addition to announcing this milestone, Optimum Asset Management USA has disclosed that only two residences remain – including a two-bedroom, two-and-a-half bathroom, plus den, villa with direct marina access and boat slip -- as the tower rapidly approaches a complete sell-out.

“Seeing Monaco Yacht Club & Residences come to fruition and receive TCO is an especially proud moment,” said Matthew Barry, Managing Director of Optimum Asset Management USA. “The global response to the tower has been nothing short of compelling and a testament to its international appeal. We are thrilled to be showcasing this building to the world and celebrating the continued excitement surrounding its unveiling.”

Monaco Yacht Club & Residences feature one to four-bedroom residences, ranging in size from 918 to nearly 5,000 square feet, and two one-of-a-kind penthouses with spacious living areas, private terraces and summer kitchens. Primed for indoor/outdoor living and entertaining, the meticulously designed homes feature expansive wraparound terraces – each with sweeping views of Biscayne Bay, the Atlantic Ocean and the Miami skyline – as well as contemporary Italian kitchens by Boffi.

Additional highlights within the residences include stone countertops, 10 to 11-foot-high ceilings throughout, large walk-in closets, private elevator entrances, and premium bathroom interiors featuring imported Italian marble flooring, large tubs and frameless, glass-enclosed rainfall showers with designer faucets.

“The DNA of the Côte d’Azur is reflected in every single design element of Monaco Yacht Club & Residences, giving residents the unique opportunity to live the one-of-a-kind South of France lifestyle,” said Edgardo Defortuna, president and CEO of Fortune International Group, the exclusive brokerage of the project. “We have a lot of excited residents that we cannot wait to welcome and celebrate the very best Miami Beach has to offer.”

Each of the modern unit interiors were meticulously curated with precise attention to detail, inclusive of the refined Italian-made fixtures and finishes, while a design palette of warm whites and rich woods was used for the lobby and the premier “Resident’s Lounge,” which features a library and breakfast bar for leisurely waterfront dining.

“It has been an honor to be part of the construction of this amazing architectural gem,” said Brett Atkinson, President of South Florida for Moss Construction, the tower’s general contractor. “It was a pleasure to work with Optimum Asset Management USA; we could not have reached TCO without our experienced subcontractors and suppliers.”

The nautically-themed, 12-story boutique building features a variety of resort-style amenities, including a rooftop terrace featuring panoramic views of the Miami skyline and a pool with poolside chaise lounge chairs, Jacuzzi and shaded lounge areas with a grill for entertaining. Offering the best of a yachtsman’s lifestyle, a 12-slip marina is exclusively available to residents of Monaco Yacht Club & Residences, as well as a yachting concierge and other waterfront amenities such as paddle boarding and kayaking.

Units at Monaco Yacht Club & Residences are priced from $1.1 million with exclusive sales and marketing overseen by Fortune Development Sales.
