The St. Regis Resort & Residences Bahia Mar, Fort Lauderdale
Ultra-Luxury Waterfront Living at Fort Lauderdale’s Iconic Bahia Mar Marina
Executive Overview
St. Regis Resort & Bahia Mar Residences is a 39-acre waterfront estate in Fort Lauderdale, positioned between the Atlantic Ocean, Intracoastal Waterway, and a world-class marina—within one of the most established yachting destinations globally.
Developed by Related Group, Tate Capital, and Rok Acquisitions, the offering represents a $2 billion transformation of one of South Florida’s most iconic waterfront sites into a fully integrated residential and hospitality ecosystem.
What defines its rarity is the convergence of marina access, private beachfront, and branded residential living at this scale—a combination increasingly impossible to replicate due to land constraints and entitlement limitations.
The estate is structured across two distinct ownership experiences: private residential towers and fully serviced St. Regis resort residences—both supported by the brand’s globally recognized service model.
Designed for globally mobile owners, yacht-centric lifestyles, and long-term capital positioning, it offers access to a category of real estate where water, service, and scale intersect.
In contrast to standalone towers, this is positioned as a destination-level waterfront asset with structural scarcity and long-term relevance.

Scarcity Metric:
Over 39 acres of continuous waterfront land with marina + beach integration—a scale no longer achievable in South Florida
Living Experience
Life at Bahia Mar is defined by proximity to water—whether ocean, marina, or Intracoastal.
Residences are designed for openness and flow, where interiors extend into expansive terraces overlooking yachts, coastline, or open horizon. Mornings begin with marina movement or ocean light; evenings shift toward privacy, framed by water and distance from the city’s density.
The layout supports both hosting and retreat:
- Open living and dining areas designed for entertaining
- Kitchens integrated yet understated, suited for both daily use and private service
- Bedrooms positioned for privacy, with primary suites offering walk-in wardrobes and spa-level bathrooms
Daily life transitions seamlessly between environments—private residence, beach club, marina, spa, or dining—without leaving the estate.
Service remains present but discreet: from butler coordination to in-residence experiences, everything is structured to support continuity rather than visibility.
This is not seasonal coastal living—it is a fully supported waterfront lifestyle built around ownership, not short-term use.
Unique Value Proposition
- 39-acre master-planned waterfront estate (extremely rare scale)
- Direct marina integration within the yachting capital of the world
- 1,800 linear feet of private Beach Club frontage
- Dual ownership model: private residences + fully serviced St. Regis residences
- Limited density: only 4 residences per floor in towers
- Developed by Related Group with institutional-scale track record
This offering is not comparable to traditional oceanfront towers—it represents access to a waterfront ecosystem combining marina, beach, and hospitality infrastructure.
Investment Perspective
The offering sits within a highly constrained segment defined by:
- Limited remaining waterfront land of this scale
- Increasing entitlement and zoning barriers
- Global demand for marina-integrated residences
Key positioning:
- Limited replication potential due to land and marina infrastructure
- Strong end-user buyer profile (yachting + lifestyle-driven ownership)
- Brand-backed operational consistency via St. Regis
Pricing positioning:
- Tower residences starting ~$5M
- Resort residences starting ~$3M
This is a trophy waterfront asset, aligned with long-term capital preservation rather than short-term yield.

FAQ
St. Regis Bahia Mar sits in a narrower category because it combines beach access, marina integration, and branded residential ownership on a large waterfront estate in Fort Lauderdale. That mix is tied to Bahia Mar’s long-established marine identity and a site positioned between the Atlantic, the Intracoastal, and the city’s yachting infrastructure.
Daily life here is organized around water, service, and ease of movement rather than urban spectacle. Owners have access to a full-service beach club, a 250-slip deepwater marina, wellness and spa facilities, dining venues, and St. Regis butler-led services that make the estate function more like a private waterfront ecosystem than a standalone tower.
Fort Lauderdale is the better fit for buyers whose priorities are yachting access, coastal ease, and lower-density waterfront living rather than skyline visibility. Bahia Mar sits minutes from Las Olas Boulevard and at the center of a marina culture anchored by the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, giving the address global relevance without Miami’s intensity.
The long-term value case rests on site scarcity more than launch momentum. Large waterfront parcels with both marina and beach components are difficult to replicate, and the project’s positioning within Bahia Mar ties ownership to marine infrastructure, hospitality branding, and a coastal district with enduring international recognition among high-net-worth buyers.
The project is backed by an institutional-grade team rather than a single-name branding exercise. Related Group, Tate Capital, and ROK Acquisitions lead development, with architecture by Arquitectonica, interiors by Tara Bernerd & Partners, and St. Regis service delivered through management structures tied to the brand’s hospitality platform.
Privacy here is structured through ownership layers and service infrastructure, not total separation from a broader resort environment. The project includes private residences and resort residences within a master association, while certain hotel-style services and brand benefits depend on management agreements and may involve additional cost, which matters for buyers assessing control and predictability.
This residence is best suited to a global buyer who wants private ownership with hospitality support in a marina-led setting. It is less suitable for someone seeking guaranteed water access, guaranteed views, or a purely residential tower detached from hotel operations, because the project disclosures explicitly say those elements are not assured as blanket rights.
