No.2 Condo on Key Biscayne: Ocean Club

The Ocean Club is a beautiful community built in 1998 on a 52-acre property offering over 800 condos where buyers will find the broadest offer of large condos in Key Biscayne starting from 2,500 SF. The community features a recently renovated gym ($12M renovation), a private beach club, restaurant, spa, tennis center, beach service, and multiple pools. It is certainly going to provide a complete resort style experience.

How is it made up?

The Ocean Club complex offers four types of residences. Ocean Towers, Club Towers, Lake Villas, and Resort Villas. Ocean Tower Two offer the units closest to the ocean. Club Tower Three has an extra setback to the ocean offering magnificent direct panoramic views of the ocean, pool, and grounds. The condos in these five premium towers provide private elevators, a luxurious foyer, a concierge, and beautiful ocean views. Many feature flow-through floor plans with views of the ocean, the key, the bay, and in cases, the Miami Skyline.

The Lake Villas are condos located in smaller low-rise buildings inside the Ocean Club complex, providing views of the community’s lakes. Lake Villas offer a formal lobby and large units that resemble a private home experience. Smaller 2-bedroom units are available at the Resort Villas in standalone low-rise buildings.

Best Lines at Ocean Club

We prefer line 08 in Ocean Tower as the best line, as they offer direct ocean access and a level of privacy and light only seen in the large corner units with east exposure. Club Tower Two condos are also good choices as they offer straight-angle ocean views.

No.3 Condo on Key Biscayne: Grand Bay Residences

Grand Bay Residences is a classic boutique building with impeccable service. The complex includes two towers. Residences offers 137 units over 14 floors located perfectly centered in front of the beach and across the pool and common areas. Grand Bay Tower is the closest tower to the beach, offering 100 units across 12 floors and 2 top penthouse levels (Upper and lower penthouses). Grand Bay condos tend to have generous floor plans with condos ranging from two to five bedrooms, starting at 1,720 square feet for a two-bedroom and going over 10,000 square feet for the largest penthouses. Higher floors offer lower density, flow-through, and corner residences. Penthouses offer high ceilings, unlike the standard ceilings on all the other floors.

Best Lines

There are multiple types of residences, multiple corner layouts, flow-through units, and magnificent penthouses. Line 01 at the Grand Bay tower is the best as it’s a southeast-facing corner residence right on the ocean that provides the perfect combination of privacy, space, and beach view very few units can offer in Key Biscayne. The Grand Bay Residences lines 5, 6, and 7 on floors 6 to 12 are also great options as they provide flow-through plans with great privacy and both beach and bay views.

No.4 Condo on Key Biscayne: Key Colony

Key Colony is a four-building complex offering 1,200 condos. Each of the four buildings (Oceansound, Tidemark, Emerald Bay, and Botanica) offers a different character and view. The 40-acre complex provides a long list of amenities including; pools, a jacuzzi, a gym, 12 tennis courts, a kid’s playground, a dog park, direct beach access, a mini-market, outdoor restaurant, beauty salon, and spa.

Best Lines

The best units at Key Colony are called Slopes. Oceanfront units with large terraces at both Oceansound and Tidemark. Line numbering varies but typically ends in 36, 37, and 38. There are also large lanais, resembling homes and three-story oceanfront townhomes. These townhomes are unique offerings that may appeal to buyers seeking large floor plans and privacy rather than ocean views. North-facing units on Oceansound are special units, some of which have great views of the Miami Skyline.

No.5 Condo on Key Biscayne: The Towers of Key Biscayne

Located on the southernmost tip of the island, next to Bill Baggs state park and the Cape Florida Lighthouse, Towers of Key Biscayne is arguably the most private and ‘nature-oriented’ building on the key. This community is 538 units across six 12-floor towers and offers generous floor plans with unique views provided by its award-winning design, which challenges traditional boxy buildings providing homogenous views.

Features

Residents and buyers appreciate this is one of the few buildings -along with Oceana- offering floor-to-ceiling windows. The Estoril floor plan is the star condo as these corner units offer six large floor-to-ceiling windows, plenty of light, and privacy of corner units. Although conceived as two-bedroom condos, over the last five years many properties have been gutted and redone into three-bedroom units with high-end finishes.

Best Lines

We recommend lines 01 and 08, which are not only corners but have no neighbors and thus provide 270-degree views with total unobstructed privacy. In particular, B01 and B08 are the premium lines of the building, with direct beach views. Lines D01, D08, E01, and E08 provide bay and park views. The building offers two pools, a restaurant, a beauty salon, a sauna/spa, tennis courts, gym and is currently undergoing an upgrade process that will include a more modern exterior color scheme, upgraded corridors, and facilities. It is also one of the few buildings on the key to offering hurricane windows rather than shutters.
