Kempinski Residences Is Rewriting the Design District
The first standalone Kempinski branded residence in the United States is setting a new standard for luxury living in Miami's Design District — blending European hospitality with world-class architecture and resident-first service.
Part of our ongoing curation of what it means to live, love, and play in the Magic City.
The Design District has always been a place where the world comes to look. What Kempinski Residences is proposing is something different: a place where the world comes to stay.
Miami's Design District has long been a destination for those who appreciate the intersection of art, architecture, and luxury living. Now, Kempinski Residences Miami Design District is raising that bar further — bringing the storied European hospitality brand's first standalone branded residence in the United States to one of the city's most coveted addresses.
Developed by DaGrosa Capital Development Partners, the project is positioned at 3801 and 3883 Biscayne Boulevard — at the gateway to the Design District. Designed by Arquitectonica, with interiors by Rockwell Group and landscape architecture by Enea, the development comprises 128 private residences across two 23-story towers, along with six townhomes and 18 guest suites exclusively for residents.
What distinguishes Kempinski Residences from the wave of branded residences that have arrived in South Florida is its commitment to service before move-in. Buyers receive access to a dedicated VIP Concierge from the moment of contract signing — not just upon taking possession of their home. That concierge, drawing on nearly two decades of luxury hospitality experience across South Florida's most exclusive properties, will oversee a bespoke resident experience program spanning dining reservations, travel coordination, curated local experiences, and resident programming.
This is Live Miami — where the city's style, ambition, and forward momentum converge. From the Design District to Brickell, from wellness culture to the residences redefining the skyline, this is how Miami lives.
Buyers also receive immediate access to the GHA (Global Hotel Alliance) Discovery Titanium card and all associated benefits upon signing — a tangible expression of the Kempinski Group's supervisory direction over management and operations at the property.
"Today's luxury buyers expect more than beautiful design and amenities; they expect a level of service that simplifies and enhances everyday life," said Joseph DaGrosa, Founder and Chairman of DaGrosa Capital Development Partners LLC. "Giving buyers VIP concierge access at signing means they feel that service commitment from the very beginning of their journey with us."
Amenities at the development will include wellness and recovery facilities, two separate pools, a cold plunge, infrared and steam saunas, restaurant and dining spaces, wine and game lounges, a screening room, golf and Formula 1 simulators, padel courts, and family-focused amenities — a full lifestyle ecosystem within the building itself.

The PGM Edit
Miami has never lacked for ambition in its skyline. What the Design District is proving is that the most interesting addresses aren't just the tallest — they're the ones that understand the neighborhood they're entering.
