Miami’s skyline is undergoing a profound evolution, no longer defined just by glass towers or oceanfront views, but by residences that encapsulate the essence of legendary hospitality brands. In the coming years, St. Regis, Baccarat, Waldorf Astoria, Faena, and Mandarin Oriental will each unveil ultra-luxury, hotel-branded residences in Brickell, Sunny Isles, Downtown, River District, and Brickell Key. These developments don’t merely offer premium finishes and concierge services, they weave each brand’s storied heritage, signature rituals, and world-class design into every square foot, setting a new standard for opulent living in a city where culture, commerce, and cosmopolitan flair collide.

St. Regis

Miami’s skyline is set to gain two spectacular St. Regis residences: a 50-story bayfront tower in Brickell and twin 62-story ocean-facing towers in Sunny Isles. The Brickell tower includes 152 luxury homes, each with private elevators, chef’s kitchens, spa, indoor lap pool, pickleball court, private marina, Michelin-driven restaurant, house car, and beach club, with delivery expected in 2027. The Sunny Isles development offers 194 residences ranging from 1,950 to 4,680 ft², 70,000 ft² of amenities including a private beach, three pools, wellness spa, pet spa, bar & grill, and is scheduled for fall 2026 delivery. Both embody St. Regis’s signature rituals, bespoke butler service, afternoon tea, curated cocktails, within architectural envelopes by Robert A.M. Stern and Arquitectonica, and interiors by Rockwell Group and Patricia Anastassiadis.
