TheSt. Regis Residences Sunny Isles has quickly become one of Miami’s most talked-about oceanfront developments. The question many serious buyers are asking, however, is whether this project truly delivers iconic beachfront living—or whether the market is paying a premium simply for a brand name. At the David Siddons Group, we go beyond the marketing and dig into the details: location, design, pricing, amenities, and long-term performance.
Location and Vision
Rising 62 stories across two towers, the St. Regis Residences Sunny Isles occupies a rare stretch of oceanfront land. Every home has been designed to capture both sunrise over the Atlantic and sunset over the Intracoastal, ensuring no residences are left facing walls or compromised outlooks. Expansive corner flow-through layouts, deep 12-foot terraces, and glass walls create an experience defined by light and openness. For those who want more, the project allows for flexibility, with residences that can be combined horizontally or vertically into mansion-style homes in the sky. Many stretch to more than 4,500 square feet, with some penthouses reaching 10,000 square feet. From the upper floors, the vistas are sweeping and cinematic, framing an endless horizon of ocean and skyline. In many ways, this project marks one of the final opportunities to secure true new-construction oceanfront living in Sunny Isles.
Developers and Design
Behind the St. Regis Residences is a partnership between Fortune International Group and Château Group, the same team responsible for the highly successful Ritz-Carlton Residences Sunny Isles. Their track record lends confidence to buyers, while the design team—Arquitectonica for architecture, EDSA for landscaping, and Patricia Anastassiadis for interiors—has delivered a sophisticated aesthetic inspired by nautical elegance. Flexibility is a defining theme: residences can be configured in two to seven-bedroom formats, with multi-level options, oversized closets, and broad terraces that feel more like private homes than traditional condos. The two towers will be completed in phases, with the South Tower delivering in 2028 and the North in 2029.

Pricing in Context
Pricing begins at around $5 million for two-bedroom residences, with three- and four-bedroom homes ranging from $8 million to $12 million. Penthouses start at $16 million for half floors and climb past $35 million for full floors, with a record-breaking $55 million residence already under contract. On average, prices run approximately $2,750 per square foot.
This places the St. Regis Residences at the very top of the Sunny Isles market, outperforming most local resales and aligning closely with other branded competitors such as Ritz-Carlton and Acqualina. At the same time, pricing remains below the city’s highest oceanfront benchmarks in Bal Harbour, Surfside, and Miami Beach, where ultra-luxury branded residences often exceed $4,000 to $5,000 per square foot. The result is a development firmly positioned within Miami’s ultra-luxury segment, but still offering relative value when compared to the most exclusive oceanfront enclaves.

Lifestyle and Amenities
What distinguishes St. Regis Sunny Isles is the lifestyle it promises. Unlike many branded projects, this is a fully residential property with no transient hotel element. Spread across nearly five acres with 435 feet of pristine beachfront, the development offers unusually low density for Miami—just 300 residences share more than 70,000 square feet of amenities. Residents will enjoy sunrise and sunset pools, including one of the largest private beachfront pools in Florida, along with elevated wellness spaces, a spa and salon, private gyms for each tower, and couples’ treatment rooms.
Dining and entertainment are equally considered: a Michelin-starred restaurant, exclusive residents’ club, cinema, golf simulator, children’s spaces, and even a pet spa create a comprehensive luxury lifestyle. All of this is layered with the legendary St. Regis traditions—personal butler service, champagne sabering at sunset, and hospitality executed at the very highest level. The balance of scale, privacy, and service is what gives this project its long-term appeal.
Who This Development Appeals To
The St. Regis Residences Sunny Isles has been crafted with a very specific buyer in mind. It suits end-users seeking the scale and comfort of a single-family home combined with the security and convenience of a luxury tower. It also appeals to second-home buyers who want a turnkey beachfront retreat supported by world-class services. For investors, the appeal lies in the long-term performance of hospitality-branded residences, which have historically outperformed non-branded peers by 40% to 130%, as well as the scarcity of developable oceanfront land.
This is not a building designed for short-term rental investors or speculators. Its residences are large-format and long-term by design, intended for those who appreciate generational assets, privacy, and permanence in one of Miami’s most sought-after beachfront communities.
Points to Consider
There are some limitations worth noting. Buyers seeking smaller, more efficient units won’t find them here; the residences are intentionally large. While many layouts are flow-through, not every residence offers this feature, which could influence desirability. The northern Sunny Isles location provides quick access to I-95, which is convenient for travel, but the area is less walkable than other Miami neighborhoods. Finally, it’s important to note that Sunny Isles has historically experienced more market volatility compared to end-user driven areas like Coconut Grove.
A Favorite Floor Plan
Among the many layouts, one standout is the North Tower’s 04 line. This three-bedroom residence spans 3,400 square feet of interiors with a 675-square-foot terrace and delivers unobstructed southeast views of the ocean and the Miami Beach coastline. It is a prime example of what the project is designed to offer: scale, views, and luxury in perfect balance.
Final Verdict
At an average of $2,750 per square foot, the St. Regis Residences Sunny Isles is positioned as one of the strongest players in Miami’s branded luxury sector. While more expensive than local competitors like Ritz-Carlton and Acqualina, it remains below the stratospheric pricing of Surfside and Bal Harbour, offering both prestige and relative value. With irreplaceable beachfront land, a proven development team, and the enduring power of the St. Regis brand, the project delivers on both lifestyle and long-term investment potential.
In short, this is not just branding hype. The St. Regis Residences Sunny Isles offers a rare chance to secure true oceanfront luxury, combining expansive homes, flawless service, and a level of exclusivity that is increasingly hard to find. For buyers looking to anchor themselves in one of Miami’s most coveted beachfront addresses, it represents both a statement of lifestyle and a sound investment in the city’s luxury future.
