The Miami SoFi enclave is a small affluent neighborhood situated on the southern tip of Miami Beach — beginning at South Pointe Park to 5th Street, from east to west. Surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay, SoFi is known as an exclusive urban sanctuary.

As one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Miami Beach, it is no surprise that SoFi is home to some of the most luxurious condo towers in South Florida. A few of the ultra-high-end luxury condos in South of Fifth include Continuum South Beach, Apogee South Beach, Murano Grande and Murano Portofino

South of Fifth is also home to some of the most historic restaurants, beautiful oceanfront hotels and youthful hotspots.

Those who settle in SoFi have the best of many worlds: an elite neighborhood, ocean views from residence windows, and a sense of sanctuary, yet always with a SoFi Joie de Vivre.

Apogee South Beach

Apogee Building is an aptly named Miami Beach, South of Fifth (SoFi) condo development, as its meaning underscores the vision of the Condo itself. An Apogee is the highest point, a climax in the development of a project.

In this case, Apogee defines a high-end, luxury lifestyle condo development – located at the southern end of South Beach.  The 67 three- and four-bedroom units, on 22 floors, with exceptional penthouses, overlook Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. At Apogee, there is a privileged quality that combines with the latest residential technologies.

It is located on, arguably, the last great waterfront site. Each floor of the 22 consists of four residential units with an airy, flow-through design offering grand views of water and city. The floor plans are available from 3,103 to 4,145 square feet. The residences have either three or four bedrooms in addition to the penthouses.

The sixty-seven residences at Apogee South Beach feature private elevators, spacious balconies and appliances with exceptional European cabinetry. 

The Apogee residences, lobbies and common areas have been designed by the world-renowned Yabu Pushelberg and his architecture firm. There are, for example, optically clear glass on the units and on the balconies, and granite and French Limestone finishes. There is a state-of-the-art spa and fitness center, an infinity edge lap pool in a garden setting, and each unit has an enclosed, air-conditioned two car garage, with artwork by the Cuban Born artist, Jose Bedia.

But with all the deep design finished and artwork, resident privacy and security are also of profound importance, so a full-service concierge and valet parking, are always available.

 

Continuum Towers on South Beach

Continuum South Beach is the name of two luxury condo towers, the North Tower and South Tower in the SoFi ( South of Fifth) area in Miami.

The two luxury condo towers share a variety of significant amenities: direct access to 1,000 feet of white sandy beach and a full-service Beach Club, a resort-style pool deck with a lagoon pool, 3-level high-tech fitness center with lap pool and rooftop sun deck, tennis pavilion, conference rooms, personalized concierge services, 24-hour security and 24-hour valet parking.

The Continuum South and North Tower residences are two unique enclaves, due to their natural settings overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, Fisher Island and the Miami Skyline, yet are ultra private luxury settings as well. Continuum residents, in both towers, are treated to unparalleled views yet providing easy access to shopping and fine dining a few steps away.

The Continuum I and Continuum II condos in Miami Beach sit on 12 acres of prime waterfront sandy beach. They offer a wide variety of sizes, and buyers can choose from studio to 6-bedroom units ranging from 1,201-4,246 sq ft. The condo residences offer private and semi-private elevator foyers, floor-to-ceiling windows, 10-foot ceilings, security systems and private over-sized balconies.

Continuum condo living combines optimal tranquility and convenience.  Both have become known as urban sanctuaries, allowing the residents the peace of ocean views with the liveliness of the SoFi (South of Fifth) elite neighborhood. Continuum has also developed into a positive choice as a primary residence or secondary residence, a corporate relocation area, or a selection for a multinational with headquarters in a nearby business district.

There are multiple unique qualities to Murano at Portofino that separate it from other area condos.
