Minor Hotels is planning the Anantara Miami Resort & Residences, marking the entry of its luxury brand into the US. The 50-storey development is set to rise above Biscayne Bay and is scheduled to open in 2030.
The project is being developed with One Thousand Group and will be located between Miami’s Edgewater, Design District and Wynwood neighbourhoods. The tower is expected to offer views across Biscayne Bay and forms part of the group’s wider expansion strategy.
The development will include 100 private branded residences, 120 resort residences and 50 hotel suites. Owners will have the option to place their units into a rental pool for hotel guests. Facilities will focus on wellness, including a centre dedicated to movement, nutrition and recovery, alongside programmes influenced by Thai healing practices.
The project brings together an international design team, and follows previous developments by One Thousand Group, including One Thousand Museum and Villa Miami.
The building will also include features such as a rooftop helipad and access to nearby cultural institutions, including the Pérez Art Museum, the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science and the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts.
“Miami is the perfect location for the debut of our luxury Anantara brand into the US, and we are excited to partner with One Thousand Group to bring this vision to reality,” said William E Heinecke, founder and chairman of Minor International.
“Our approach has always been to anticipate where the market is going and develop buildings that don’t yet exist in Miami. With Anantara, we saw an opportunity to bring a globally respected brand into a market that is ready for something more meaningful and experience-driven,” added Michael Konig, Co-Founder of One Thousand Group.
