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.

This guide compares both perspectives using the same decision framework, from orientation and sightlines to wind exposure, boating traffic, and nighttime ambience. Use it to tour confidently and choose the waterfront that matches your lifestyle, not just your first impression.
