The luxurious Murano at Portofino, distinguished by its magnificent triple towers and designed by the award winning architects Sieger Suarez, remains one of the most beautiful and desirable waterfront condominiums in South Beach. Set in 4.5 acres of lush, landscaped gardens, this imperious bayfront property is located in the south of Fifth , affectionately known as SoFi - the most prestigious residential address in South Beach.

Having free access to the exclusive St. Tropez-style La Piaggia Beach Club and all its private functions and parties is an additional benefit of residency at Murano condominiums. Bronzed bodies draped around the poolside bar or taking a refreshing dip in the salt-water pool embody the laid back South Beach lifestyle while the French/Italian gourmet restaurant is a must-visit, trendy destination for international travellers as well as many South Beach locals.

For the more energetic residents, a second, lavish fresh water pool with terrace and spa lies next to two tennis courts, illuminated for night time use and built on an elevated level overlooking the bay.

A state-of-the art fitness centre extending over two floors and with spectacular views over the bay lies alongside a plush health spa offering the latest treatments and using only the finest products. A deluxe sauna and steam room are also provided, plus a media center and various splendidly appointed spaces and rooms for recreation and entertaining.

Housing189 sumptuously appointed residences in a trilogy of dramatic glass towers, Murano at Portofino provides an intimate setting in which to enjoy the luxurious, hip lifestyle of South Beach. The waterfront residences with deep, glass- fronted terraces offer unparalleled views of Fisher Island, Biscayne Bay and Miami Beach Marina, the city skyline and the Atlantic Ocean. Residents can watch as magnificent cruise ships set sail from the Port of Miami on their way out to sea.

Each residence is spacious and high ceilinged, bathed in natural light from the magnificent floor to ceiling windows and featuring glass sliding doors which lead onto sizeable terraces. Imported marble and granite grace the counter tops and floors throughout the elegantly designed free flowing residences. Spacious walk-in closets ensure stylish, clutter free living.

The master bathrooms are stunning in their simplicity. Seamless glass encloses the shower, and contemporary fittings of intrinsic quality add elegance and space. The finest marble is used on wet walls and floors and imported granite furnishes the vanity tops. Double porcelain sinks and contemporary designer faucets provide added touches of luxury demanded by residents in a building of this calibre. Grand whirlpool baths and superbly finished European cabinetry make a striking impression and the mirror extending the full width of the vanity unit completes the luxurious master bathroom. Attention to detail extends to the additional bathrooms where the same fine marble graces the floors and wet walls. Expensive porcelain sinks and custom made designer cabinetry are standard luxury fitments in all residences.

Traditional granite of the finest quality is used on the countertops of the beautifully crafted kitchens, together with matching European cabinetry. Aesthetic appeal is combined with state-of-the-art functionality in the integrated appliances. Sub-Zero fridges and freezers, as used in the Bloomberg Tower in New York, sound- insulated dishwashers, stainless steel sinks with designer faucets and family-sized washers and dryers are customarily fitted in each residence. Separate laundry rooms are built into some residences.

Pets are welcome with no restrictions and all residences have assigned and secure parking alongside a 24hr. valet service. The Murano at Portofino enjoys round the clock security and the 24hr. Concierge service takes care of all other requirements the resident may have.
