Life at the Four Seasons Miami is expected to be “grand” in the grandest sense, luxurious with beautiful appointments, and beyond glamorous in lifestyle. Surely the Four Seasons is Miami’s signature building for luxury living counting more than its fair share of private aircraft in nearby airports awaiting the call from the owners here and the grand assortment of hyper luxury cars in the private garage. “The Residences” aspect of the building operate as if they were on a another planet, attached to the “real” world by a huge private “residents only” lobby on the ground level housing the private concierge 24/7, roving security, and the doorman. No hotel guest gets the unannounced pass through here and there are no surprises at one’s backdoor either as access to the upper reaches of the building are independently controlled at every point. For example, as a resident you have access to your private pool through level six and you may elect to use all of the wonders of the hotel’s outdoor space as well including the outdoor bar and restaurant and mega pools. But “they” cannot access your private space thanks to various levels of unobtrusive security and pool attendants.

It is a blissful life here, high above Miami and its Biscayne Bay and Atlantic Ocean- yet quickly in reach of all of the fun Miami has to offer. In its rapidly developing walking neighborhood are some of the city’s most interesting restaurants, an historic old growth forest, houses of worship, a world class tennis center, and all of the zing that comes with being the financial hub of Latin America. Mary Brickell Village has developed a couple of short blocks away, near the site where the Mary Brickell and her family set up life here more than a century ago. This village has a cluster of fine restaurants and is cranking up the scale of nightlife available by foot. Think of Four Seasons Residences as a building secured above a 40 story building which houses the service amenities for your life above it. In the lower portion of the tower, you can visit the 40,000 SF gym and world-class spa, all the areas of the hotel, and access the office building. It is very convenient, very efficient, and very Four Seasons. Want to have breakfast in bed? Pick up the phone and let them make it happen…. Want a car to drop you at the opera, the ballgame, or ArtBasel? Pick up the phone and let them make it happen. Want to have a chef cook dinner for you in your apartment or simply have a butler serve drinks for your cocktail party at home? Just pick up the phone and let them make it happen.

Get ready to experience the grandest city views anywhere on the coast as soon as you pass through your double front doors, the foyer, and into an amazing living room with 10 foot ceilings and floor to ceiling glass running the entire length of the south and west sides of the voluminous living room facing south across Biscayne Bay and its islands of Virginia Key and Key Biscayne and on out into the Atlantic and the Florida Keys. The western view is an urban glimpse of the Brickell residential district and financial corridor. No matter what time of day, the view is stunning and at night, magical. Its balcony invites morning coffee off the kitchen as well as a beautiful way to end the day from the master.

The finishes of this spectacular apartment are everything you’d expect from Allison Spear, the award winning interior designer/architect. Spear’s choices of limestone and the beautiful hardwoods of the Caribbean for its floors resonant with rich, custom paneling and built in cabinetry. The lighting choices and scenes have been planned and then transformed into soffit designs and ceilings which seem to float above the larger spaces of the living room as well as the size and shape of the custom lighting fixtures which glow above the foyer and entertainment area. The intelligent choice to separate the kitchen away from the living and dining areas was done before the first limestone tile was put in place allowing the option of “not” participating in the preparation and service of the meal on those occasions when you select the service staff of Four Seasons to do this for you. Other clever features include hiding the sound system in the built-ins and creating a space for the washer-dryer behind a wood wall of the guest powder room. Its generous bedrooms, both with full ensuite baths, fit the classic Four Seasons layout with adequate hallway space between the doors to the baths and the bedrooms. Parking for this unit is specified on the privileged entry level floor of the “residents only” garage.
