For the buyer who knows the Kempinski name from hotels and wants this building answered plainly before a viewing: who builds it, whether a hotel comes with it, and what a Design District address gives instead of sand.
This page explains. Whether the building suits you is a separate conversation. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.
Kempinski Residences Miami Design District is a pair of 23 storey towers at the gateway to the Design District, developed by DaGrosa Capital Development Partners with sales by ISG World, holding about 132 residences, six townhomes and 18 guest suites sold to residents only. The Kempinski name is carried under licence, with daily management by Kempinski Group, and there is no hotel on the site. The developer brochure puts the entry price From $3,700,000, from the developer brochure as carried in build/dossiers/kempinski.py. The full record is on the Kempinski dossier, and the diligence read is Kempinski Residences: what to know before you buy.
DaGrosa Capital Development Partners develops the building and ISG World handles sales. Arquitectonica is the architect, Rockwell Group holds the interiors and Enea the landscape. The team matters because this is the first Kempinski residential address of its kind in the district: a European service house attached to a city building rather than to a beach resort. The verified facts are collected in Kempinski Residences Miami Design District: facts worth knowing, and the neighbourhood is read on the Miami Design District zone pages.
No. That is the question this building turns on, and the dossier answers it in one line: Kempinski sits under licence, daily management is by Kempinski Group, and no hotel stands on the site. The name buys a service standard, not a lobby shared with hotel guests, and the 18 guest suites are sold to residents for their own visitors rather than let to strangers. What that distinction is worth is read in is Kempinski Residences Miami a hotel, and the wider premium question in what the branded residence premium buys.
About 132 residences run across the two towers, 64 per tower, with six townhomes beside them. The homes run from two to four bedrooms, each with a den, and every residence carries a private elevator lobby. The 18 guest suites are the unusual line in the file: they are sold to residents only, so a visiting family sleeps inside the building without the owner giving up a bedroom, and no suite is a hotel room. For a buyer whose household hosts often, that count, 18 suites against about 132 homes, is the ratio to weigh before the finishes. The wider shelf is at the notes hub.
The address is 3801 and 3883 Biscayne Boulevard, at the gateway to the Design District, with bay and skyline views to the east. The dossier states the limit plainly: the site is not waterfront. What the position gives instead is the walk into the Design District and a short drive to the rest of the city, which is why the desk reads this building as a location decision first. A buyer who wants the ocean at the door will look elsewhere; a buyer who wants dinner on foot has few alternatives at this size. Every other buyer question is collected in the questions buyers ask.
A fourth floor amenity bridge links the two towers and carries a resort pool, a lap pool and a beach entry pool, a spa with cold plunge and saunas, a padel court, golf and Formula 1 simulators, a Sunrise Café with daily breakfast, and house cars. Two things buyers ask first are only partly in the dossier. Current pricing and availability beyond the brochure entry figure are released on request. And the dossier states no delivery date, so a calendar is built on the purchase agreement's own outside date, read with counsel, not on a sales conversation.
