Some residences come with a club. Some come with a club bill. At Bentley Residences, here is how to tell which, and who controls the price.
This page is a framework. Whether the building suits you is a separate conversation. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.
A mandatory membership is written into a recorded covenant or the declaration: owning the residence means paying the club’s dues, used or not. An optional one is offered to owners, sometimes ahead of the public, and can be declined. A beach club, a spa, a marina or a private dining club at Bentley Residences can sit under either model.
Bentley Residences: Over ~20,000 SF across three levels furnished by Bentley Home: a three story lobby with ocean views, lobby restaurant under 33 foot glass, whiskey bar, 16 seat private dining room, 14 seat theatre, cigar lounge, spa and pet spa, beauty salon, simulator game room, oceanfront pool and 10 cabanas.
The Bentley Residences dossier holds the developer’s published record. Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison.
If the facilities are common elements, the association runs them and their cost sits in a budget the owners eventually control. If the developer, a hotel operator or a separate company owns the club, that owner sets dues, initiation fees and rules, and residents do not vote on them. The prospectus describes the recreational facilities and any fees or leases attached; read it against the club’s own papers.
Bentley Residences: No brand or operator is recorded for this building.
Bentley Residences: Dezer Development.
Ask for every charge a club at Bentley Residences could carry: initiation, annual dues and how they rise, food and beverage minimums, guest fees, and any assessment of its own. Ask whether unpaid dues can become a lien on the residence, whether a family membership covers adult children and staff, and whether a tenant may use the club.
A mandatory membership passes with the residence, so the next buyer prices in the dues. An optional one may transfer for a fee, return to a waiting list or lapse. If the club is sold or closed, the covenant says what owners keep. The desk asks for the membership plan at Bentley Residences in writing and reads it with you before contract.
A club you must join is part of the price. Read its bill like one.

Received. A note from the desk is on its way. If it has not arrived within a few minutes, please check your spam folder and mark it as not spam, so we can reach you.
We hold no listings and we are not the developer. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier and we will tell you what applies to your situation, what does not, and where we would not proceed. On this topic that means the document before the opinion. Where a question is legal, tax or structuring, we introduce you to advisers who handle that properly rather than answering it ourselves.
