Where Miami’s Most Expensive Properties Are Located

While luxury homes can be found throughout South Florida, the highest-priced properties are typically concentrated in a small number of prestigious waterfront communities and luxury condominium towers.

Private Island
Indian Creek Island

Often referred to as “Billionaire Bunker,” Indian Creek Island is one of the most exclusive residential communities in the United States. The private island contains only a limited number of waterfront estates surrounding the Indian Creek Country Club golf course. Homes here frequently rank among the most expensive properties in Florida.

Miami Beach

Star Island has long been one of Miami Beach’s most famous residential enclaves. Large waterfront estate lots, sweeping views of Biscayne Bay, and private yacht docks have attracted celebrities, entrepreneurs, and international investors.

Oceanfront Towers
Sunny Isles Beach & Bal Harbour
