5 new development projects in Miami worth knowing right now

Miami’s new development pipeline has always been active, but what’s happening right now is different. The projects coming to market in 2026 aren’t just adding inventory, they’re redefining what it means to live in this city. From European hospitality brands making their U.S. debut to music-world lifestyle ecosystems and design-forward boutique towers, the common thread is clear: today’s buyers want more than a unit. They want an experience, a community, and a building that reflects who they are.

Here are five developments worth putting on your radar, and a few reasons why each one stands out.

1. Kempinski Residences Miami Design District

Europe’s oldest independent luxury hotel company is making its U.S. residential debut, and it’s doing it in the heart of the Design District. Kempinski Residences Miami Design District rises across two 20-story towers at 3801 and 3883 Biscayne Boulevard, with 132 private residences, six townhomes, and 17 guest suites reserved exclusively for residents. The architecture comes from Arquitectonica, interiors from Rockwell Group, and landscape from Enea. Amenities span both towers via an elevated amenity bridge and include a fitness center, spa, lap pool, cold plunge, restaurant, screening room, and golf and Formula 1 simulator rooms. Delivery is expected Q4 2029.

2. Anantara Residences Miami

The first Anantara-branded residences in North America are coming to Miami, marking the North American debut of one of the world’s most recognized luxury hospitality brands. Inspired by a philosophy centered around wellbeing, balance, and exceptional service, Anantara brings a perspective to luxury living that feels less like a building and more like a state of mind. For buyers drawn to brands with a clear global identity and a deep commitment to wellness and service, Anantara is worth watching closely.

3. Palm Tree Residences Miami

Kygo and Myles Shear’s Palm Tree Crew, the global lifestyle platform behind Palm Tree Music Festival and front-row access to F1 Miami, Art Basel, and the World Cup Finals, just launched its first-ever residential offering. Palm Tree Residences Miami is a 37-story tower in the heart of Miami’s entertainment district, built entirely around the idea that where you live should connect you to the experiences that define your life. Over 57,000 square feet of amenities across three levels, a rooftop beach club with infinity pool, golf simulator, padel court, dedicated wellness facilities, and priority access to Palm Tree festivals worldwide. Units come fully furnished with short-term rental flexibility built in.

4. Lilli Miami — Edgewater

Developed by Vlad Doronin’s OKO Group and designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, the same firm behind the Burj Khalifa, Lilli is a 53-story waterfront condominium on one of the last major bayfront parcels in Edgewater. Just 117 residences, giving it a boutique density that’s rare at this height. Amenities are organized around four living pillars ; movement, recovery, nourishment, and connection  with a rooftop saltwater pool, infrared sauna, cold plunge, spa treatment rooms, a dedicated wellness director, and a waterfront sunset garden. Residences start at $1.65 million. Delivery expected 2029.

5. Delano Residences

The Delano name carries decades of cultural weight, and its residential debut in Miami brings iconic design, hospitality DNA, and a clear value proposition for both lifestyle buyers and investors. Projects like Delano combine design pedigree with service and exclusivity to create something that holds long-term value, not just at purchase, but across resale cycles. As Miami continues to attract global capital, branded residences remain one of the most sought-after segments of the market, and Delano is at the top of that list.
