Bentley Residences vs. Porsche Design Tower: The Supercar Towers of Sunny Isles Beach
Two towers on Sunny Isles Beach’s Collins Avenue have redefined what “arrive home” can mean: Porsche Design Tower, completed in 2017, and the forthcoming Bentley Residences. Both are driven by Dezer Development’s appetite for engineering theater, most notably the patented Dezervator concept that turns the car from a valet-handled accessory into part of daily residential ritual. For buyers, the comparison is less about badges and more about lived logistics: privacy, arrival, wellness, services, and how a building’s identity ages. Porsche Design Tower is an established icon with a known operating reality. Bentley Residences is a next-generation promise that is already signaling seriousness through construction milestones and a highly programmed amenity narrative. The decision sits at the intersection of certainty and ambition.

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.
