Welcome to Sunny Isles Beach
Relax in luxury in a stunning oceanside city
The coastal city of Sunny Isles Beach is one of Florida’s most exciting and up-and-coming resort areas. A beautiful urban area with a peaceful vibe, Sunny Isles Beach is the perfect place to vacation, work, or call home.
Developed in 1920 as a tourist resort, Sunny Isles Beach has long been considered a prime vacation spot. Single-family homes were built in the area during the 1950s, contributing to the city’s rise in popularity as a residential area. Due to the development of motels during this time, tourists flocked to Sunny Isles Beach to enjoy the weather and the pier.
Today, Sunny Isles Beach is home to many luxury hotels and high-rise condominiums. High-end apartments and condos are the norm—many have incredible amenities and stunning ocean views. Pricing for these luxury condos can reach into the millions depending on the building, and the majority provide a resort-like experience.
