Sunny Isles Beach
by , July 12, 2022
Sunny Isles Beach is known as the luxury branded-condo corridor of Miami, and not without reason. Pick up the list of recent condo developments and you’ll find the biggest names in global luxury brands offering residences here, names such as Porsche, Bentley, Armani, St. Regis, and Ritz-Carlton. Being curious about the kind of luxuries and amenities such major brand names bring to the neighborhood, we’re ranking the Five Most Luxurious Condo Buildings in Sunny Isles Beach, along with an introduction to their world-class amenities.
As a bonus, we’ve also listed the most highly anticipated pre-construction condo that could soon become one of the most expensive addresses in this coastal community right after our top 5 list.
First, let’s look at why people love this beachfront Miami neighborhood. Sunny Isles Beach’s pristine white-sand shoreline and casual, family-oriented vibe have always made it a top choice for exclusive living away from the city core. Locals have plenty of options to enjoy the great outdoors with the at-home Newport Fishing Pier to drop a line, next-door Haulover Beach Park for water sports and boating, and the Oleta River State Park for kayaking and biking. Further, with world-class shopping at the Shops at Bal Harbour or over the bridge at Aventura Mall and the fun and frolic of Miami Beach just 35 minutes away, it’s no wonder Sunny Isles Beach is one of the most desirable addresses in town - and these are its most luxurious condo residences:
Each fully finished residence at Muse features interiors by the award-winning Antrobus + Ramirez, 12-foot high ceilings, 60-foot-wide and up to 38-foot-deep terraces, outdoor living spaces with summer kitchens, custom smart-home tech, and much more.

Sunny Isles Beach scores big on safety with an “A+” on areavibes.com. Our opinion on this urban community is the same as well, since residents rarely experience any crime and the police in the area are pretty responsive too. Perhaps this is why it continues to rank 4th on the “Best Suburbs for Young Professionals in Miami-Dade County” and is the 16th “Best Suburb to Live in Miami-Dade, according to the 2022 survey on niche.com. It also gets “A” for Nightlife, “A” for Diversity, “B+” in Good for Families, and “A-” for its access to Public Schools.
The diverse restaurant scene in Sunny Isles Beach is a fabulous mix of fine dining, casual eats and healthy treats. See below for some of the top restaurants in this coastal suburb:
Residents have decent shopping options at the RK Centers Shopping Mall, offering basic options for casual dining, services and necessities. The mall is known for its collection of established brands, supermarkets, a Starbucks, plus a variety of cuisines. This coastal community is also home to a Publix and a Walgreens; both set along Collins Avenue. For more serious shopping, locals can easily head out across the Causeway to the Aventura Mall, or south to the upscale Bal Harbour Shops, both about a 10-minute drive.
Our vote goes to Jade Signature for the best-located condo in Sunny Isles Beach. Not only does it have direct beach access and unobstructed ocean views, but is also across the street from shopping at the RK Centers mall with its mix of established brands, daily conveniences, and restaurants.
