A residence with a chef, a nanny and a driver runs on doors the brochure never shows. At Olara, 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 Olara 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.
Olara: Two assigned full sized parking spaces with EV capability per residence; twelve guest suites in the building.

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 Olara 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.
Olara: Over 80,000 square feet centred on a private sixth floor deck; dining by Jose Andres Group including an 8,500 square foot indoor and outdoor waterfront restaurant and a dockside oyster bar; private marina with resident slips, a captained fishing boat and a cruising yacht; 24 hour doorman, valet and security; resident manager and concierge.
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 Olara 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 Olara 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.
