Executive Overview
Bentley Residences is a branded oceanfront tower on Sunny Isles Beach in which the interior and exterior are authored directly by Bentley Motors, working with Sieger Suarez Architects — the studio behind Porsche Design Tower and the Residences by Armani/Casa. It is the first residential building anywhere to carry Bentley's design authorship rather than a licensed nameplate, translating a century of automotive craft into a permanent address.
The building rises 63 storeys and 710 feet as a single diamond-panelled glass tower, its facade drawn from the diamond motif that runs through every Bentley product. Behind the glass sit 216 residences, each with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Atlantic and Intracoastal, private terraces with heated pools, and a feature no other tower in the market offers at this scale: a private in-residence sky garage of three or four cars, reached by the robotic Dezervator vehicular lift that carries owner and car together directly to the home.
The 2.4-acre site holds 200 feet of private beach frontage and sits centrally between Bal Harbour Shops and Aventura Mall, roughly equidistant from Miami and Fort Lauderdale airports. This is a stretch of coastline where oceanfront land is effectively built out, and beachfront development sites of this width no longer come to market.
This is not simply a branded condominium. It is a private garage in the sky wrapped in an oceanfront residence, engineered so that the object a Bentley owner most wants to keep close never leaves their side.

Living Experience
Life here begins the moment the Dezervator lifts you and your car off the ground and sets you down inside your own home. The residence opens as a single uninterrupted plane of glass and light: floor-to-ceiling windows wrap the living space so the Atlantic reads as the fourth wall, and the terrace, plunge pool, and summer kitchen extend the interior straight out over the water.
Bentley's design language is applied with restraint rather than logos. Smooth-finish ceilings rise to ten feet, stone runs floor to wall in the primary bath, and the diamond motif appears only where it belongs — the door levers, the faucet detailing — so the material palette, not the branding, carries the room. The intent is a home that reads as calm and tactile up close and unmistakably engineered underneath.
- Gaggenau kitchens with wine cooler, steam and convection ovens, and Italian cabinetry with motorised doors
- Primary bath with stone floors and walls, freestanding tub, sauna, Toto Neorest bidet toilets, and heated floors
- Summer kitchen with Gaggenau grill on every terrace
- Smart climate controls, ventless Bosch laundry, and a built-in safe in every closet
- Over 20,000 sq ft of amenities across three levels, furnished by Bentley Home
- Three-storey lobby, restaurant and whiskey bar, cigar lounge, cinema, spa, pet spa, and beach service
The result is a residence that behaves less like an apartment and more like a private object — owned, driven into, and lived in on its owner's terms.
Unique Value Proposition
Bentley Residences occupies a positioning gap that is structurally difficult to reproduce, for several distinct reasons.
First, brand authorship: this is the only residential tower Bentley Motors has designed, and the design is integrated through the building's architecture, interiors, and furnishings rather than applied as a licence. Second, the in-residence sky garage is a genuine product differentiator — very few towers anywhere allow an owner to keep three to seven cars inside their own home, and none combine it with this brand. Third, architectural authorship by Sieger Suarez ties the building to a proven lineage of successful Sunny Isles towers. Fourth, supply: the oceanfront strip is effectively built out, and a 2.4-acre, 200-foot beachfront parcel of this kind is not repeatable on this coastline.
- The only Bentley Motors-designed residence in the world
- Private multi-car sky garage inside each home via the Dezervator
- 200 feet of private beach on a fully built-out oceanfront corridor
- Design authorship integrated end to end, not licensed
This is not a branded tower with a garage. It is a garage-led residence that happens to sit on the ocean.
Investment Perspective
The investment case rests on structural positioning rather than projected return. Sunny Isles Beach is one of the most supply-constrained oceanfront markets in the United States: its beachfront is almost entirely developed, and the barrier to new large-parcel supply is physical, not regulatory. A branded residence with a design signature that cannot be replicated adds a second layer of scarcity on top of the land itself.
Directly comparable inventory is limited. Within the immediate corridor, few towers offer private in-residence garages, and none carry the Bentley design authorship, which narrows the pool of true substitutes for a buyer seeking this specific combination. Branded residences in this market have historically commanded a premium over non-branded oceanfront stock, and the constraint on future beachfront supply supports the durability of that premium.
No specific return projections are implied.
Design & Brand Pedigree
The building's credibility comes from its design partnership. Bentley Motors, founded in 1919, brings the same craft standards that define its cars to the interiors, exteriors, and Bentley Home furnishings throughout the tower — an authorship role, not a naming arrangement. Sieger Suarez Architects, the studio of Charles Sieger and Jose Suarez, contributes more than four decades of award-winning South Florida work, including Porsche Design Tower and the Armani/Casa Residences in the same city.
The partnership is integrated from facade to furniture rather than a superficial branding exercise, which is what allows the diamond motif, the sky-garage concept, and the material palette to read as a single coherent design rather than a licensed veneer.
