A Few of Our Favorite Miami Condominiums
When you’re searching for a home in Miami or Miami Beach, we believe that you should choose a Realtor that has the same taste as you do so that your search for the perfect home goes as smoothly as possible. If you select a Realtor that has completely different taste in architecture, design, furnishings, and lifestyles; it’s highly likely that he or she will have a very hard time finding you what YOU want. We recommend reading all of the information on this website, including this page of his favorite Miami condominiums, so that you can get a feel for how his style will match up with yours!
Miami has some of the most stunning architecture in the world, and many of these amazing buildings are condominiums. This page contains some of our favorite Miami & Miami Beach condominiums, with information about each building. (This list is in no particular order).
300 Collins
300 Collins Miami Beach is the newest luxury condominium development in the highly sought-after ‘South of Fifth’ neighborhood of Miami Beach. As my clients and readers are well aware, I am a huge fan of low-key, well-designed, unobtrusive, and ‘earthy’ developments, and 300 Collins Miami Beach is exactly that. From the outside, this beautiful property has a similar feel to many of the others that I have showcased on my website such as Louver House, Palau Sunset Harbour, and Marea. You can thank one of New York City’s hottest designers for this beautiful result; Thomas Juul Hansen. Juul-Hansen received a bachelor of architecture degree from the University of Miami and a master of architecture from Harvard University Graduate School of Design and then went on to work at the firm of my favorite architect of all-time; Richard Meier. Anyone who has worked under Meier has my total respect.
Palau Sunset Harbour
Palau Sunset Harbour
Palau Sunset Harbour was planned in the style of ‘New Urbanism’, showing that a property can be open and accessible from all angles; with retail on the ground levels and residential units above. Kobi-Karp, the architects for Palau Sunset Harbour, have shed the pastiche skin that many other new-urbanist projects have suffered from; opting for a minimalist approach rather than a questionable period revival. Living at Palau Sunset Harbour allows you to enjoy an automobile-free lifestyle where you can walk and bike anywhere you need to go. With a floating rooftop pool, amazing landscape design by Raymond Jungles, boat slips at your back door, and the most walkable neighborhood in all of Miami, Palau Sunset Harbour offers it all to modern city-dwellers.
Louver House
New construction in the South of Fifth neighborhood of Miami Beach has been moving ahead at a rapid pace in 2015, with numerous projects underway and available land diminishing fast. The most recent project is the gorgeous Louver House. Louver House Miami Beach is a boutique property boasting only 12 premium residences. Every unit in Louver House is 3 bedrooms and 2000+ square feet plus outdoor living spaces ranging from 496-793 square feet. Interior condos at Louver House South Beach start at $2.08 million and the corner units start at $2.8 million. The Louver House Miami Beach penthouses will be available for $3 million plus. Louver House South Beach is designed by Rene Gonzalez who I very much appreciate. His designs are very natural and comfortable; unlike the cold and uninviting buildings that many other architects design for Miami. He has designed many of my favorite Miami buildings. He’s on my short list of architects to hire for any project in Miami.

Ten Museum Park
Ten Museum Park
Ten Museum Park is a residential condo tower in downtown Miami. Ten Museum Park forms part of “the Biscayne Wall”, a series of skyscrapers that are visible from Biscayne Bay. Ten Museum Park was designed by Oppenheim Architecture + Design and was completed in 2007. It’s 585 feet (178m) tall, and has 50 floors. It contains 20,000 square feet (1,858 m²) of Class A office and retail space on the lower floors, and residential condos on the upper floors. While Ten Museum Park appears to be a typical skyscraper with identical floors, the condo levels are actually quite varied. The east-facing condos are interlocking lofts, providing each unit with an eastern view and either a north or south-facing view as well. Lower level west-facing condos are shallow units with large walls of glass. Upper levels of the building have either double-height condos or three-floor loft condos. Some condo units even feature independent soaking pools!
Apogee South Beach
Apogee Miami Beach
Apogee South Beach is a residential condo tower located in the “South of Fifth” or South Pointe area of Miami Beach. Apogee is one of the most exclusive buildings in all of Miami, with ultra-luxury condos ranging from 4,000 to 6,500 square feet. Apogee was designed by Sieger Suarez Architectural Partnership. The Apogee common areas were designed by Yabu Pushelberg. Apogee has 67 units, (only 4 per floor), but many of them were combined into massive, sprawling residences, larger than most private homes in Miami. Apogee was conceived by Jorge Perez and the Related Group, the company responsible for other well-known projects in Miami such as, Icon South Beach, Murano Grande, Ocean I, II and III, and many others. Apogee is not only one of the nicest buildings in all of Miami, but is likely one of the most luxurious condominiums in the United States.
