How could a Miami base complement your home in Colombia?
Start with the life you expect to keep in Colombia, rather than treating a Miami purchase as a replacement for it. A household might want a separate base for extended stays, time together or individual visits. At Anantara Residences Miami, the Edgewater address and Biscayne Bay setting provide the location to assess; they do not answer how often you would use the residence or who would be there.
Build a practical visit calendar before selecting a floor plan. Would everyone arrive together, or would one person stay longer? Would work calls overlap with another person’s downtime? The project is planned for 50 stories, 200 residences and more than 130,000 square feet of amenities, with a wellness focus. Ask for materials showing how those spaces relate to the everyday routine you envision between Colombia and Miami.
What should the Anantara name mean to a buyer in Colombia?
Anantara Residences Miami is North America’s first Anantara branded residences. The project brings together One Thousand Group with Minor Hotels, architecture by Kohn Pedersen Fox (KPF) and interiors by Patricia Urquiola. For someone maintaining a home in Colombia, those names are useful starting points for reviewing the concept, design and residential offering—not substitutes for examining the specific residence and purchase materials.
There is no verified Colombian Anantara hotel to use as a local reference. Your own familiarity may instead come from a trip to Thailand; it should not be assumed from nationality. If you have experienced the brand while traveling, identify what mattered and ask how the Miami materials describe it. Distinguish a remembered hotel stay from residential ownership, and do not treat branding as a guarantee of rental income or returns.
How can you organize the buying review from Colombia?
Begin by requesting current plans, pricing, availability, rental terms and purchase materials from Kyle Gilligan, brokered by Douglas Elliman. Share a short brief: your home remains in Colombia, who may use the Miami residence and which layouts you want to compare. Arrange a call around that brief so the conversation resolves specific questions rather than simply introducing the building.
For Spanish document review, ask which materials are available in Spanish and which language versions govern the transaction; do not assume every document has a translation. Review the materials with your own advisors, keeping a written list of unclear terms. Before setting travel dates, ask which signing, identity-verification and funding steps require your presence, what can be handled remotely and when. Remote preparation can support the process, but a fully remote closing is not guaranteed.
How should a Colombia household map the deposit schedule?
Put the purchase timetable alongside the commitments associated with your home in Colombia. The stated schedule calls for four 10% deposits: at contract, 90 days after contract, groundbreaking estimated for Q3 2027 and top-off estimated for Q4 2028. The remaining 60% is due at closing, estimated for Q4 2030. Completion is also estimated for Q4 2030; these dates should not be treated as a promise of a particular move-in day.
For each milestone, identify who will coordinate funds, review payment instructions and track notices. Ask how the purchase documents address timing changes and what confirmation accompanies each payment. Maintenance is stated at $2.20 per square foot; the supplied figure does not establish a billing interval or inclusions. Request those details before building a household budget. All starting prices and availability are subject to change, so refresh the figures before making a decision.
| Contract | 10% |
|---|---|
| 90 days after contract | 10% |
| Groundbreaking (Q3 2027) | 10% |
| Top-off (Q4 2028) | 10% |
| Closing (Q4 2030) | 60% |
Which rental approach fits time divided between Colombia and Miami?
The two residence collections have different stated rental frameworks. Resort floors 11–22 contain 100 fully furnished residences with 10-foot ceilings and optional hotel rental management. A resort one-bedroom, one-bathroom residence is priced Starting from $1,800,000. Private floors 23–47 contain 100 residences with 11-foot ceilings, private elevators and a six-month minimum rental. Begin with the periods your household expects to reserve for its own use while maintaining its Colombia home.
If rental participation matters, request the applicable documents and ask how owner stays, management arrangements and rental restrictions would interact with that calendar. Optional hotel rental management is not an income commitment, and the Anantara brand does not guarantee rental income or returns. A private residence’s six-month minimum also deserves attention if your own visits may change. Compare the stated terms, rather than assuming either collection permits whichever rental pattern you later prefer.
How can you build a flexible shortlist for your household?
Use household scenarios to narrow plans without locking the decision too early. For a Colombia-based household comparing a compact Miami base with more separation, one-bedroom, one-bathroom residences measure 913–1,053 square feet in both collections. Two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom residences measure 1,580 square feet; the resort two-bedroom is a corner layout. Compare sleeping arrangements and how people would share the plan, not just the bedroom count.
Private residences also include three-, four- and five-bedroom plans measuring 2,391, 2,955 and 5,346 square feet respectively; six-bedroom size, bathroom count and pricing are available on request. Keep two or three alternatives and explain the trade-offs for each: fewer rooms to organize, more separation or capacity for overlapping visits from Colombia. Ask for detailed plans to assess furniture placement, work space and circulation. Revisit the shortlist after the household reviews the same materials, rather than assuming one person’s first choice fits everyone.
Questions from buyers based in Colombia
Can we keep Colombia as our main home and use Miami for visits?
You can evaluate the purchase around that household plan without assuming a move away from Colombia. Start with who would visit and for how long, then compare the collections’ terms. Ask how your intended personal-use calendar would interact with any rental arrangement before choosing a residence.
Can we review the purchase documents in Spanish?
Ask Kyle Gilligan which materials are available in Spanish and whether translations can be provided for your review from Colombia. Confirm which language versions govern the transaction and review unclear wording with your own advisors. Do not assume translated marketing materials mean all purchase documents are available in Spanish.
Does Anantara have a Colombian hotel we can use as a reference?
No verified Colombian Anantara hotel is identified here. Familiarity may come from your own travel to Thailand, rather than a local property. If that experience informs your interest, compare the actual Miami residential materials with what you remember; a hotel visit does not establish the terms of ownership.
Should we travel from Colombia before narrowing the plans?
You can begin with requested plans, a household brief and a call, then decide what needs an in-person review. Ask separately about required presence for signing and funding. Preparing from Colombia can make questions more focused, but it does not establish that every purchase step can happen remotely.
How should we compare a smaller base with room for family visits?
Keep a shortlist tied to two realistic calendars: ordinary stays and overlapping visits from Colombia. Compare room separation, furniture placement and shared space using detailed plans. Then check current starting prices and the deposit schedule, so additional capacity is considered alongside the household’s other commitments rather than in isolation.
