Choosing the Best View and Exposure: A Guide to Unit Orientation in Miami Condos

Exposure is not a footnote in South Florida condo buying. It is a daily, physical experience that shapes how a residence feels at 8 a.m., how hard the air conditioning works at 5 p.m., how usable the terrace is at golden hour, and how private the interior remains after dark. In a region where the sun rises in the southeast and sets in the southwest, the same “water view” can read entirely differently depending on compass direction, season, surrounding buildings, and the width of the water you face. This MILLION Luxury editorial is a buyer-oriented guide to selecting exposure with intention. Think of it less as a debate between sunrise and sunset, and more as a disciplined match between lifestyle, light quality, heat gain, privacy, and long-term view resilience.

Muse Residences vs Ritz-Carlton Residences in Sunny Isles Beach: Service model

In Sunny Isles, luxury living is increasingly defined by what happens after the closing: staffing, privacy protocols, and the daily choreography of arrivals, deliveries, and upkeep. Muse and The Ritz-Carlton Residences® Sunny Isles both promise elevated service, but they arrive there through two distinct operating logics. One leans boutique and owner-centric, built around a small roster of residences and a highly curated resident experience. The other draws from a global hospitality playbook, designed to scale across a larger resident population while delivering consistent, resort-like programming. For buyers weighing a primary residence, second home, or long-stay rental strategy, the question is not simply “which is more luxurious.” It is which service model better matches your lifestyle: intimate and tech-forward with a privacy-first cadence, or branded and hospitality-led with a deeper bench of resort amenities and staff.
