Minor Hotels has announced the debut of its experiential luxury brand in the United States with Anantara Miami Resort & Residences. Rising 650 feet above Biscayne Bay, the landmark development signals a defining moment for the group’s global expansion especially in the United States.
Developed in partnership with One Thousand Group, the 50-storey tower will be located at the convergence of Miami’s Edgewater, Design District and Wynwood neighbourhoods and is expected to open in 2030, becoming the first tower in the area to offer uninterrupted views across Biscayne Bay.
The tower will incorporate features such as a private rooftop helipad, enabling seamless access to destinations including the Florida Keys, Palm Beach and the Bahamas, alongside a curated range of hospitality-led experiences.
The planned 50-storey tower will feature 100 private branded residences and 120 resort residences, allowing owners to make their residences available to hotel guests, in addition to 50 hotel suites and a collection of amenities that will bring the principles of ancient healing and modern longevity into Miami’s urban landscape for the first time.
More than a traditional branded residence, Anantara Miami Resort & Residences is conceived as a fully integrated lifestyle destination where hospitality, private ownership, and wellbeing will coexist seamlessly, reflecting a shift toward more flexible, experience-driven living.
William E Heinecke, Founder and Chairman of Minor International, commented, “True luxury is time, the freedom to pause, to explore, and to experience the world more deeply. Miami is the perfect location for the debut of our luxury Anantara brand into the U.S., and we are excited to partner with One Thousand Group to bring this vision to reality.”
Guided by Anantara’s philosophy of immersive, experience-led hospitality, the project is envisioned as an urban sanctuary responding to growing demand for restorative city living. A dedicated vitality centre focused on movement, nutrition, and recovery will anchor the experience, alongside holistic programming inspired by centuries-old Thai healing traditions.
Kevin Venger, Co-Founder of One Thousand Group, said, “Anantara Miami Resort & Residences introduces something entirely new to the U.S. It’s not just another branded residence, but a fully realised concept that blends hospitality, private ownership and longevity into one unified experience.”
Building on One Thousand Group’s track record of shaping Miami’s luxury residential landscape, the project follows developments including One Thousand Museum, the final residential tower designed by Zaha Hadid, and Villa Miami.
Set within a highly walkable neighbourhood, the property will offer direct access to Miami’s leading restaurants, galleries, boutiques and cultural institutions, including Pérez Art Museum, the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science and the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts.
Sales are anticipated to launch later this year, with One Sotheby’s International Realty appointed as the exclusive sales partner.
