57% Gone, $1.2B Sold: The Mandarin Oriental Residences Brickell 2025 Update

The Mandarin Oriental Residences is one of Miami’s most anticipated luxury developments, and progress is unfolding in real time. With 57% of the project already sold and $1.2B in commitments secured, this record-setting development is quickly defining itself as a once-in-a-generation opportunity. Mandarin Oriental Residences isn’t just another Miami condo, it’s the last piece of Brickell Key, redefining luxury at a moment when Miami is stepping onto the world stage. Here’s the latest update every serious buyer needs to know.

Construction Timeline at the Mandarin Residences Brickell

This is a long-term project. Buyers seeking immediate occupancy may need to look elsewhere. But for generational buyers and long-horizon investors, early entry means maximum upside.

Sales & Pricing at the Mandarin Residences in Brickell Miami

More than half of the residences at the Mandarin Oriental have already been placed under contract, with 57% sold before the groundbreaking has even begun. This represents $1.2 billion in commitments, an unprecedented pace for South Florida’s luxury market. Current pricing averages between $2,500 and $2,600 per square foot, positioning the project competitively when compared to other branded residences like the St. Regis. Historically, prices in pre-construction developments rise significantly after groundbreaking, and with roughly four and a half years until delivery, the potential for appreciation is strong. For buyers considering an entry point, securing a unit before spring 2026 may provide the best opportunity to lock in the lowest possible pricing,

When it comes to floor plans, views, amenities, and overall investment prestige, the Mandarin Oriental Residences sit firmly at the very top of Miami’s luxury scale. A comparable parcel on the beach would command close to $4,500 per square foot. The Mandarin Residences Brickell are in the same league as the new St. Regis in Brickell, yet setting it apart from other new Brickell developments that can’t match its direct waterfront location or its world-class brand. For context, the current top of the resale market in Brickell trades around $1,500 per square foot. By introducing a new level of luxury, Mandarin Oriental is poised to redefine the standard, surpassing even the Four Seasons Brickell, which, while still iconic, is now dated by comparison.

From 2,300 SF to 8,000 SF: Explore  the Impressive Floor Plans & Remaining Inventory

Every residence at the Mandarin Oriental Residences Brickell offers unobstructed, protected views, a rarity in Miami that sets this project apart. The unit sizes (see floor plans here) range from spacious two-bedrooms of about 2,300 square feet to nearly 6,000 square feet, with penthouses extending up to 8,000 square feet. The building is thoughtfully organized into collections: Collection 1 features five residences per floor; Collection 2 offers four larger residences per floor,  and Collections 3 and 4 consist of expansive, front-to-back layouts with sweeping, panoramic views. While some of the most sought-after tier one lines are almost completely sold out, opportunities remain in the higher floors and larger layouts, making this a key moment for buyers who want to secure the best options still available.

What Sets These Views and Location Apart?

This is the last development site on Brickell Key. With no future projects possible on the island, views are guaranteed in perpetuity. That makes Mandarin Oriental not just a lifestyle purchase but also a protective hedge against Miami’s ever-changing skyline. Protected views equal protected value, a critical differentiator from most Miami condos. Many buyers also wonder how a project of this caliber can be so competitively priced compared to others. The key lies in the fact that the developer has owned this land since the 1970s, giving them a significant advantage over developers who purchased waterfront parcels more recently at today’s elevated prices.

Why Hotel Service Matters for Long-Term Value

Unlike many branded residences, this project combines hotel-level service with privacy and exclusivity, strengthening its long-term value.

Mandarin Oriental Residences Brickell: The Case for Long-Term Value & ROI

Historically, branded residences outperform their local peers by 40% to 130%. Hospitality Branded condos with a hotel element are the pinnacle of excellence in Miami real estate. It’s important to make the distinction here, we’re not talking about hotel condos where units are simply sold for participation in a rental program. Instead, these are developments where a dedicated residential tower sits alongside a fully functioning hotel, giving owners access to a complete suite of five-star services and amenities. Notable examples include the Four Seasons Surfside, Faena House in Miami Beach, and Estates at Acqualina in Sunny Isles. These projects consistently outperform the market, offering an ultra-resort lifestyle that rivals the world’s most prestigious hotels. Beyond world-class service, they’re often set on expansive parcels of land, delivering sweeping views and unmatched amenities that elevate both the experience and long-term value.

Who This Is For:

• Buyers seeking a generational asset with long-term appreciation.
• End-users wanting a vacation home with five-star service.
• Investors with a 5–10 year horizon looking to secure value pre-groundbreaking.

Who This Isn’t For:

• Buyers needing immediate occupancy.

Conclusion

The Mandarin Oriental Residences is the last chance to own on Brickell Key—and it delivers everything a world-class condo should: unmatched scarcity, brand prestige, and powerful long-term appreciation potential. With more than half of the project already sold and prices set to rise, the time to secure the best value is right now. This isn’t just another Miami tower. It’s a five-acre private sanctuary offering protected views, flawless floor plans, and the services of one of the world’s most trusted hospitality brands. Think single-family home in the sky—security, privacy, and exclusivity—seamlessly blended with the energy of Miami’s urban core and the indulgence of resort-style living.

After 15 years of selling Miami’s top properties and reviewing 55 Miami new construction condos, I can say with confidence: projects like this don’t come around often. The developer and the Mandarin Oriental brand have poured extraordinary investment into making this a one-of-a-kind success.
