Four questions come up in every first conversation about Delano Residences & Hotel Miami. Here they are in order, with what the record says and what the record does not.
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.
Delano Residences & Hotel Miami is at Fourth and Biscayne, Downtown Miami · views of downtown, Biscayne Bay, Miami Beach and the Atlantic. The Delano Residences & Hotel Miami dossier holds the developer’s published record. Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison. This page is the first-time Miami buyer’s reading of it, as a framework to verify, never as a finding.
The record, in the developer’s words: Development: Property Markets Group · sales and marketing by PMG Residential. Architecture: Carlos Ott, conceptual artist · CUBE3, architecture. Interiors: Meyer Davis, interior design and architecture. Brand: Delano, under licence, with Ennismore and Accor as project team · hotel and residences in one tower.
Compare as you read: Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami and Anantara Residences Miami answer the same questions differently, and the desk holds the documents for all three.
The developer’s deposit schedule for Delano Residences & Hotel Miami is a contract exhibit held by the desk and read with you before signing; it is not published. Florida law requires deposits to sit in escrow, and lets a developer use amounts above ten percent for construction with the right disclosures; the question is which account, which conditions, and what the contract says if delivery is late.
~421 fully finished residences across a ~90 story tower, with hotel below. A delivery date in a brochure is an estimate; the outside date is in the purchase agreement, and the difference between the two is where buyers get surprised. Ask for the outside date, the milestone the developer has reached today, and the penalty if the outside date passes.
Two resort pools, one on the bay deck and one in the sky · The Source by Delano spa and fitness with steam, sauna and cold plunge · Delano Rose Bar · Café Delano · all day restaurant · sky restaurant · Members’ Club · meeting and event rooms. Every amenity has a line in the first budget: staffing, insurance, reserves, and any brand or management fee. Delano, under licence, with Ennismore and Accor as project team · hotel and residences in one tower Ask for the estimated first budget by line and for the reserve schedule; the law now watches the reserves.
Studios through 3 bedrooms in the released collection · the Delano Collection on floors 20 to 47 carries studio, studio and den, 1 and 2 bedroom lines · larger residences expected in later releases · furnished suites in select lines. The second buyer is the same kind of person as the first, arriving three to five years later into a building where every neighbour closed at once. The lines that hold value are the ones the first buyers fought over. Ask which lines went first in the current release.
