Murano Grande

Murano Grande: Three Towers, One Iconic Bayfront Address in South of Fifth

Completed in 2003 by The Related Group and designed by Sieger Suarez Architects, Murano Grande is one of the defining silhouettes of the South of Fifth skyline. The development is actually three interconnected towers — rising 25, 31, and 38 stories — that cascade toward Biscayne Bay in a design meant to give as many residences as possible a clear line to the water. The building is capped by a dramatic duplex penthouse spanning its top two floors.

Inside, the arrival experience sets the tone: a 4,700-square-foot lobby and lounge designed by David Rockwell, with a sweeping curved staircase rising beneath 27-foot ceilings. It's one of the more theatrical entrances in South of Fifth, and a signature that residents and guests remember.

Residences

Murano Grande's residences range from two- to four-bedroom layouts, spanning roughly 1,400 to nearly 4,000 interior square feet — among the more generously sized floor plans in the neighborhood. Private and semi-private elevator lobbies lead directly into each home, and many units are designed as "see-through" floor plans, with windows on both the ocean and bay sides to pull light and views through the entire residence.

• Kitchens: granite countertops, custom European wood cabinetry, a Sub-Zero built-in refrigerator-freezer, and a sound-insulated dishwasher
• Bathrooms: marble flooring, and a spacious whirlpool tub in the master suite
• Living spaces: 9-foot ceilings, 8-foot solid-core doors, floor-to-ceiling tinted hurricane-impact glass, and expansive private balconies

Amenities

• Resort-style heated pool and sundeck overlooking Government Cut and the Port of Miami
• Lighted tennis court — a rarity among South of Fifth high-rises
• State-of-the-art, multi-story fitness center and full-service spa
• David Rockwell–designed lobby with 27-foot ceilings
• Media and multi-purpose rooms
• 24-hour concierge, security, and complimentary valet parking
• Porte-cochère entry with round-the-clock valet
• Pet-friendly building with no breed or weight restrictions

Location & Lifestyle

Murano Grande sits at 400 Alton Road, directly behind the Miami Beach Marina, placing residents within walking distance of South Pointe Park, the beach, Whole Foods Market, and the shops and cinema on Lincoln Road. The South of Fifth address also puts some of Miami's most celebrated tables just steps away — Joe's Stone Crab, Prime 112, Smith & Wollensky, and Estiatorio Milos among them. By car, Downtown Miami is about 7 minutes away, with Wynwood roughly 15 minutes further.

As at most SoFi towers, rentals are limited to twice per year with a six-month minimum — a policy that keeps the building predominantly owner-occupied and preserves its quiet, residential character.

Why Buy at Murano Grande

Murano Grande suits buyers who want more space than a typical SoFi high-rise offers — its floor plans run larger than many neighboring towers — without giving up direct bay views or a walk to the beach. The tennis court and expansive lobby set it apart from buildings that compete purely on pool decks and gyms, and its established resale history makes it a stable choice for both end users and investors.

It sits just north of Icon South Beach and close to Portofino Tower and Murano at Portofino — worth comparing if you're weighing waterfront options across South of Fifth.
