As you may already know, Miami is a Mecca for all things luxury when it comes to offering worldly cuisine experiences, a lavish entertainment nightlife, and breathtaking views from million-dollar properties fit for royalty - this is not JUST a city, but the setting for an opulent lifestyle designed for the best of the best.
So, it's no surprise that new billion-dollar developments are in high demand right now to satisfy a growing need for those who are flocking to migrate here to bask in Florida's sun kissed warm weather and oh-so-many phenomenal luxuries.
Personally, I made the move here from Los Angeles a few years ago and haven't looked back for all the reasons above and more. Miami is the city to be in and I do not need to count the reasons why because you already know. Now, if you are someone who is looking for a new summer home or a place to settle in year around, this guide will show you an in-depth look at the most desirable and prestigious developments that are causing quite the stir among the locals here.
Come with me on a personal journey through Miami's up and coming prospective properties that are simply irresistible and fabulous in every way.
Being a "Floridian", I have come to appreciate all of gorgeous landscapes, vibrant art galleries, and jaw dropping high rises equipped with state-of-the-art amenities that had me thinking "why didn't I move here sooner?". Relocating to Miami was the best decision that I have ever made for myself in the sense that living here is truly something to write home about. BUT it does depend on which neighborhood you decide to make your mark in.
Currently, Brickell is HOT and experiencing an influx of new residents, drawn to its unique appeal as the "NEW" New York, but without the drawbacks of chilly weather, high taxes, and the perennially under-construction streets plagued by potholes. There is no doubt that people are increasingly attracted to the prospect of living in Brickell, enticed by the combination of a warmer climate, a tax-free environment, reputable schools, and the promise of a luxurious lifestyle that anyone could get accustomed to quickly.
That is a fact as I fell for Brickell immediately and there are no complaints here, not one.
However, Brickell isn't the only Miami neighborhood that should be on your radar. Downtown Miami is rapidly emerging as a newfound promised land for buying opportunities and undergoing a significant transformation. This change is attracting a diverse range of investors, who are interested in tapping into the area's growing potential.
Meanwhile, Sunny Isles still and will always maintain its status as one of Miami's most prestigious neighborhoods, a favorite among international travelers seeking luxurious vacation homes. Known for its beautiful beaches and high-end amenities, Sunny Isles continues to be a top choice mainly for families and couples who desire a lavish retreat to visit and unwind periodically.
Each of these neighborhoods and communities offers lush lifestyles and unique opportunities for investors, long-term residents, and even casual and seasonal visitors.
Brickell, my favorite place in the world, is renowned for its towering high-rises, flashy entertainment venues, and New York City vibes. This part of town stands as the place to be if you are a mover and a shaker looking for Miami's top luxury residences. It's a dynamic neighborhood, blending high-end living with the convenience of city life with everything within reach. This is home for many locals who seek a diverse selection of trendy restaurants and cafes, upscale boutiques, and vibrant nightlife spots, all conveniently located among impressive million-dollar high-rise architecture.
The St. Regis Miami, set to redefine luxury in Miami’s Financial District, will be a prestigious waterfront development with a starting price of a cool $4 million. It will offer residents exclusive St. Regis services such as concierge, car and beauty services, a pet spa, and private package delivery, and butler services. Its prime South Brickell location ensures easy access to central Brickell, downtown Miami, and upscale shopping, dining, and entertainment.
Architecturally designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects with interiors by Rockwell Group, this 50-story building will feature 152 ultra-luxury residences, each offering two to seven bedrooms with sizes ranging from 2,300 to 10,000 square feet, including lavish Penthouses and Sky Villas.

Set to welcome residents by the beginning of 2027, St. Regis Miami promises a lifestyle of bespoke luxury and exclusive comfort in the heart of Miami.
But wait, there’s more…
What can I say, being a bit of a social butterfly I do tend to run in the right circles and here’s where that pays off. My incredibly connected friend, Eric Johnson, offered me a chance to tour the St. Regis Miami property office to get the scoop on why this high-rise will be so special and to find out what’s not posted on the web. (shhhhh)
That’s right, I got a sneak peek at what this new development will look like and you are not going to believe how stunning and accommodating it will be. I have to say, I was blown away at the opulence, sophoosticated technology, sleak building design, and phenomenal amenities that are a testimony to the St. Regis brand. I mean, gold stars, two thumbs up, 10’s all the way!
But don’t just take my word for it, have a look for yourself. Here’s a video that I put together that shows you exactly what I am talking about - enjoy!
I hope that piqued your interest and got you thinking that you should invest in a first class lifestyle by living in a building that makes you feel like you are always treated first class. Also, I can’t thank Eric Johnson, Anna Sherill, and the whole St. Regis Miami team enough for taking the time to show me around and give me all the details of what this new luxury building has to offer.
