A residence with a chef, a nanny and a driver runs on doors the brochure never shows. At Bentley Residences, here is how staff arrive, work and leave.
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.
Most towers separate the residents’ arrival from the service route: a staff and vendor entrance, a service elevator and, in the larger plans, a service door into the residence itself, often by the kitchen. Ask whether Bentley Residences has a separate staff entrance, whether the service elevator opens into each residence or into a shared hall, and whether staff may cross the main lobby at all.
Bentley Residences: Private 3 or 4 car garages, private heated pools with raised sundecks, summer kitchens with Gaggenau, 10 foot ceilings, sauna in the primary bath.
The Bentley Residences dossier holds the developer’s published record. Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison.
Buildings usually ask owners to register each household employee with the front desk, sometimes with a photo and an identity check, and to state the hours and floors that person may reach. Ask at Bentley Residences whether staff receive their own credential, whether it can be limited by day and hour, how quickly the desk cancels it when someone leaves, and who keeps the entry records.
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.
A staff room inside the residence works best with its own bathroom and a route to the service door that avoids the main rooms. Ask whether the plans at Bentley Residences include one, whether staff may use the gym, pool or lounge or only the service areas, where a driver waits and parks, and whether a chef can take deliveries at the loading dock without an owner present.
The association’s rules govern conduct in the building: hours for work and deliveries, dress in common areas, guests of staff. Employment law governs the owner as employer: wages, hours, payroll taxes and work authorisation, all matters for counsel and an accountant. The desk asks the developer of Bentley Residences for the service plan and the staff access rules in writing.
Staff use the back door every day. Walk it once before the contract.

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.
