Two properties have come to define the modern, ultra-discreet Miami stay: Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club in Surfside, and The Setai Miami Beach in South Beach.

This guide focuses on what luxury buyers actually mean when they talk about views and exposure: sunrise versus sunset, water on two sides, privacy in the view corridor, and the subtle difference between looking at the ocean and living with it from multiple rooms and terraces.
