Miami Herald: Sunny Isles Beach: Luxury Amenities On The Rise

  • By

There is a dramatic transformation taking place in Sunny Isles Beach. Once an inactive retirement area dotted with colorful motels, Sunny Isles Beach has come alive in the past few years as developers have realized the intrinsic value of its pristine beachfront. As the market in Miami Beach started to settle and property became scarce, investors looked to the north.

As a result, a building boom began here, and the average price per square foot has risen more than 55 percent over the past four years and continues to rise as the beautiful city known as Sunny Isles Beach comes into the spotlight.The city (pop. 21,720) is known as an enclave for the wealthy. It has twice the rate of families making more than $200,000 a year compared with Miami-Dade County, according to U.S. Census data.

It is little wonder, then, that this is where a flood of new ultra-luxury construction is taking place and why developers are looking for new ways to attract wealthy buyers who, as elsewhere in South Florida, want ample amenities right at their fingertips. So developers are incorporating unique and high-end amenities to meet the demand and to distinguish themselves from their competitors. In many instances, developers in Sunny Isles Beach have even cut out valuable residence space to accommodate large-scale amenities. Turnberry Ocean Club Residences was one of the first to do this.
