Kempinski Residences Pricing & Floor Plan Analysis

Kempinski Residences Miami Design District is priced from approximately $3.7 million for 2-bedroom residences, with price per square foot ranging from $1,680 to $1,957 across both towers. These are Early Access prices available during the pre-sales phase — before the project opens to the general market.

In this analysis, I break down the pricing across both towers, compare the value proposition by unit type, examine the floor plan configurations, and explain why the current pricing window represents a compelling entry point for buyers and investors.

How is Kempinski Residences priced by tower?

Pricing differs between the North and South towers based on unit size, floor plan configuration, and view orientation. The North Tower offers 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom residences, while the South Tower features larger 2-bedroom and 4-bedroom layouts.

North Tower 2-bedroom residences with den (2,151–2,225 SF) range from $3,761,177 to $3,871,500, translating to $1,740–$1,749 per SF. The 3-bedroom units (2,685–2,699 SF) are priced from $4,981,583 to $5,120,679, at $1,846–$1,907 per SF.

South Tower 2-bedroom residences (2,319–2,505 SF) start from $3,895,920, with price per SF beginning at $1,680 — the lowest entry point in the project. The 4-bedroom units (3,090–3,102 SF) range from $5,641,457 to $6,071,057.

What do the floor plans look like?

Each tower offers four distinct floor plan lines, for eight layouts total. The configurations are designed around open living concepts with floor-to-ceiling glass, expansive terraces, and views of Biscayne Bay, the Design District, or the Downtown Miami skyline depending on orientation.

All units include a den — a flexible space that can serve as a home office, media room, or additional sleeping area. Every residence features Rockwell-designed interiors with Gaggenau kitchens and Kallista/Kohler bathrooms. View all floor plans on the main site (registration required).

How does the deposit structure work?

The deposit structure requires 40% of the purchase price before closing, paid in three installments: 20% at contract, 10% at groundbreaking, and 10% at top-off. The remaining 60% is due at closing in Q4 2029.

For a $3.7M residence, that means approximately $740,000 at contract, $370,000 at groundbreaking, and $370,000 at top-off — with the $2.22M balance at closing. This is a favorable structure compared to many Miami pre-construction projects that require 50% or more before closing.

How does Kempinski pricing compare to the market?

At $1,680–$1,957 per SF, Kempinski is competitively positioned relative to other branded luxury developments in Miami. Mandarin Oriental Brickell Key, another branded hospitality residence, is priced higher on a per-SF basis, as are several Brickell corridor projects. The Design District location provides a unique value proposition — waterfront living adjacent to Miami's premier luxury retail and cultural corridor, without the premium of established neighborhoods like Brickell or Miami Beach.

The fact that this is Early Access pricing means these numbers represent the floor. As the project progresses through construction milestones, price increases are typical. Buyers who secure units during the pre-sales phase generally realize the most favorable basis.
