Resort-Style Living in South Florida: From Bayfront Estates to Branded Condo Sanctuaries

South Florida’s luxury market is increasingly defined by one clear priority: living like you are on holiday, without ever leaving home.

This MILLION Luxury editorial explains how federal and local preservation frameworks intersect with design oversight, and why the region’s best “historic-meets-new” projects are increasingly defined by what they choose not to erase.
