The Lifestyle of Fisher Island: Miami’s Exclusive Retreat
Fisher Island ranks as the most expensive zip code in the United States, and its reputation is well-deserved. Secluded from the mainland, it offers unmatched privacy and tranquility, with essential amenities conveniently nearby. Residents have access to healthcare services, sports facilities, a school, and all the necessities for daily living. Although Fisher Island feels like a world apart, it is just minutes from South Beach and the mainland. Security is a top priority on the island, as access is limited to ferry, boat, or helicopter.
If you’re seeking a secure and private sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of Miami while remaining close to the vibrant city life, Fisher Island is an ideal choice. Our in-depth exploration of Miami’s premier condominiums revealed a common theme: they all provide a wealth of services and amenities in spacious environments while ensuring the highest level of privacy. Fisher Island perfectly embodies this trend. It is more than just a resort; it offers a lifestyle reminiscent of a country club, featuring amenities such as golf courses, tennis courts, a spa, a gym, a marina, and private beaches. For those who value exceptional amenities, privacy, and a luxurious lifestyle, Fisher Island stands out as the ultimate destination.
Fisher Island’s Newest Condo: Six Fisher Island
Six Fisher Island features just 51 units, but many buyers have already combined units, likely resulting in around 40 total residences. The penthouses have already been sold. The buyers drawn to this project are familiar with both the architect and the island; in fact, many already live on Fisher Island and are looking to upgrade to a larger or newer unit.
The only two new construction condos on Fisher Island are Palazzo della Luna and Palazzo del Sol, both designed by the acclaimed Miami architect Kobi Karp, similar to Six. These residences aim to be an enhanced version of the Palazzos. Notably, the terraces now incorporate glass, which was previously not permitted, significantly improving the views. The terraces now extend 15 feet deep, providing much more usable space. Additionally, Six will feature 55,000 square feet of amenities, including a gym, spa, concierge butler service, and two guest suites, among others. With its distinct design elements and expanded amenities, Six will be the last new construction project on the island for the foreseeable future.
Three Top Reasons to Buy:
- Exclusivity and Privacy: The island exclusively offers luxury condos and homes, accessible only by ferry, boat, or helicopter.
- Convenient Lifestyle: You won’t need to leave the island, as it provides all necessary conveniences, including amenities, sports facilities, a school, conference rooms, and healthcare services.
- Extensive Amenities: Both Six and Fisher Island offer a wide range of amenities. The building features resort-style services and concierge assistance, catering to primary residents seeking spacious residences with the benefits of condo living.
What Makes Six Fisher Island Unique?
With over ten years of experience analyzing the condo market, we’ve found that the most successful condos are those that provide resort-style amenities and concierge services to primary residents seeking spacious residences on expansive grounds. High-performing properties like Continuum, Park Grove, and Four Seasons Surf Club exemplify this trend. These projects stand out due to their exceptional level of services and amenities, sizable footprints, and prime locations, making them highly sought after by both investors and end-users. Six at Fisher Island checks all these boxes and is also the last condominium to be constructed on the island for the foreseeable future, offering the most amenities of any building in the area.
Features that Make Six on Fisher Island Exceptional:
- Low-Density Development: The project is designed with fewer units for greater privacy.
- Spacious Lot: It occupies a large area, enhancing the living experience.
- Extensive Customized Services and Amenities: Both the condo and the island provide a wide array of tailored services.
- Large Floor Plans: The designs cater to end-users seeking generous living spaces.
- Unobstructed Views: The views from the residences are not only stunning but will remain unobstructed in the future.
- Irreplaceable Location: Six at Fisher Island boasts a unique geographical position that cannot be replicated.
Amenities include lap pools, resort-style pools, indoor and outdoor dining options, a morning breakfast bar, private dining, two guest suites, and a 55,000-square-foot amenity space. This distinctive lifestyle sets it apart from other properties on the island. While Luna and Sol are excellent developments, they share one pool between two buildings, whereas Six offers two pools, showcasing its abundance of amenities.

Floor Plans at Six Fisher Island
The Residences at Six Fisher Island feature six distinct floor plans, along with several additional customizable units. All residences are spacious, ranging from 3,800 to just over 5,000 square feet, and when combined with adjacent units, they can expand to sizes of approximately 8,000 to 10,000 square feet for penthouses. Prices start at $3,800 per square foot for the mid-sized units. Designed for primary residences, these units boast ultra-luxury amenities, catering to the ultra-wealthy demographic that Miami increasingly attracts. For about 70-80% of buyers, these condos serve as second homes.
In Miami, southeast corner units are typically the most sought after, as they receive abundant natural light due to their sun-facing orientation. At Fisher Island, this desirable layout is represented by the 01 line, which is nearly sold out, with only a few units still available. The 06 line also features corner residences with wraparound terraces. These expansive 5,000-square-foot units are priced around $20 million and offer stunning nighttime views of both the water and the downtown skyline. All condos come with 15-foot-deep terraces.
If you’re looking for a slightly smaller unit and prefer something just under 4,000 square feet, consider the 02 line. This unit offers bright interiors and spectacular views.
The Prices
The price levels at Six Fisher Island are one of the highest in the Miami new construction market competing with top projects such as Rivage, Shore Club, and Perigon. Prices start around $3,800 per SF for the center units and corner units start around $4,000 per SF.
