The Perigon vs. Ritz-Carlton South Beach vs. Six Fisher Island

A Miami Beach luxury condos comparison between The Perigon Miami Beach, The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach, and The Residences at Six Fisher Island comes down to three different propositions. The Perigon is the OMA-designed, design-led oceanfront condominium for buyers who prioritize architecture over a hotel flag. The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach is a 30-residence branded collection on Collins Avenue, anchored by a José Andrés culinary program and full hotel integration. The Residences at Six Fisher Island is the only true private-island option of the three — gated, ferry-access, and tied to the Fisher Island Club, marina, and golf course.

South Florida’s luxury new-development pipeline has narrowed at the very top, and a serious comparison now turns on these three projects. Buyable inventory in the trophy tier is concentrated in a handful of buildings, and the meaningful decision is no longer “Miami Beach or Brickell” — it is which kind of Miami Beach lifestyle a buyer actually wants. Branded service, design pedigree, and private-island seclusion are now three distinct lanes, each with a flagship project. This guide walks UHNW buyers through the differences that matter — pricing context, architecture, amenities, delivery, and buyer fit — so the next step (requesting current pricing, floor plans, and private previews) is informed.

Why these three projects define the Miami Beach luxury market

The Perigon Miami Beach brings architecture-led design from OMA — the firm founded by Rem Koolhaas — to a beachfront site on Collins Avenue. The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach is a 30-residence branded collection on the historic South Beach stretch of Collins, with culinary identity built around Michelin-starred chef José Andrés. And The Residences at Six Fisher Island is the new flagship of the only address in Greater Miami that buyers cannot drive to — see our broader Fisher Island overview for context. Together they cover the three lanes — design, brand, and privacy — that now define the upper tier of the Miami Beach new-development market.

The Perigon Miami Beach: design-led, unbranded oceanfront

The Perigon sits at 5333 Collins Avenue with 73 residences across 18 floors, with stated pricing from approximately $4M to $40M. The defining choice here is architectural: the building was designed by OMA, led by New York partner Jason Long, and conceived as a series of rotated “towers” oriented to maximize Atlantic Ocean views from every residence while also opening onto Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline.

Interiors are by Tara Bernerd & Partners, with custom Italian kitchens, honed marble, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, and 10- to 12-foot-deep private terraces from every residence. The amenity program is hospitality-grade without a hospitality brand: a signature oceanfront restaurant by a celebrated Michelin-star chef, a private spa, a high-impact training room overlooking the Atlantic, a FiftyThree speakeasy, a daily breakfast conservatory, 24-hour valet plus two house cars, and a screening room. Buyers should verify the current chef partnership, pricing, and availability with the development team.

Best for: Design-forward buyers who want a serious architectural statement and prefer service without a flag.

The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach: branded, service-first, culinary-anchored

The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach is a limited 30-residence collection at 1671 Collins Avenue, designed by Kobi Karp, with interiors by Studio Munge and landscape by Naturalficial. Stated pricing runs from approximately $4.25M to $125M, with a delivery timeline of 2028. Buyers should confirm current pricing, residence sizing, and delivery directly with the development team.

The product mix is unusual: one- to five-bedroom oceanfront “beach houses” plus two duplex penthouses, with a top end that puts this in trophy-asset territory. Amenities are pure Ritz-Carlton service: two beachfront pools with cabanas, the Ritz-Carlton Spa, a 24-hour Technogym fitness center, a screening room, the Onyx cocktail bar, the Ritz Kids program, and 24-hour doorman and concierge. Culinary identity is led by Michelin-starred chef José Andrés, who anchors both an on-site restaurant and an oceanfront beach club. Residents also gain direct access to The Sagamore, the renovated all-suite component of the adjacent Ritz-Carlton hotel.

Best for: Buyers who want hospitality-flag security, recognized brand resale narrative, and full hotel services without leaving the building.

The Residences at Six Fisher Island: private-island living

Six Fisher Island is the only product of the three on a private island. Fisher Island is reached by ferry, private boat, or helicopter — and that single fact reshapes the value proposition. Developed by Related Group, designed by Kobi Karp with interiors by Tara Bernerd & Partners, the building rises 10 stories with 50 residences ranging from 3,872 to 15,000 square feet. Stated pricing runs from $15M to $32.65M, with 2027 delivery. Buyers should verify current pricing, sizing, and timing with the development team.

Residences feature 15-foot-deep private terraces, 10-foot ceilings, primary suites with bay views and a midnight bar, two oversized walk-in wardrobes per primary bedroom, and Sub-Zero and Wolf kitchens with integrated dual-fuel range, full-height wine storage, steam oven, and coffee system. Select residences include private pools and outdoor kitchens. Amenities include a Sanctuary Spa, rooftop pool with cabanas, garden and waterfront pools, a private marina and pier, a private dock with house boat, 24-hour residential butler and concierge service, a speakeasy-style cocktail bar, and the Cove kids’ club. Residents are positioned within the broader Fisher Island ecosystem, including the Beach Club and The Links golf course. Specific club privileges associated with the residences should be confirmed with the development team.

Best for: Privacy-first UHNW buyers, international principals, and families who want the gated discretion of an island-only address with deep-water access for yachts.

What buyers should compare

A serious Miami Beach luxury condos comparison goes deeper than headline pricing. Buyers should weigh:

• Pricing and size. The Perigon starts lowest at roughly $4M; the Ritz-Carlton spans the widest stated range up to $125M; Six Fisher Island commands the highest entry point but offers the largest residences — up to 15,000 square feet. Verify current pricing, sizing, and unit availability with the development team; figures are subject to change.
• Floor plans and ceiling heights. All three offer 10-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and private elevator entry. Terrace depth varies — 10–12 feet at The Perigon, wrap-around with glass railings at the Ritz-Carlton, and 15-foot-deep terraces at Six Fisher Island.
• Developer and design team. OMA (Perigon) is a globally recognized architecture firm. Kobi Karp (Ritz-Carlton South Beach and Six Fisher Island) is a Miami staple with deep local execution experience. Tara Bernerd appears on two of the three (Perigon and Six Fisher Island); Studio Munge handles Ritz-Carlton South Beach.
• Brand and service model. The Ritz-Carlton is the only flagged residence of the three. The Perigon and Six Fisher Island are unbranded but both run full-service operations.
• Delivery timeline. The Perigon is the closest to delivery; Six Fisher Island is targeted for 2027, Ritz-Carlton South Beach for 2028. Earlier delivery generally means firmer pricing and clearer move-in planning. Buyers should confirm current delivery status with the development team.
• Deposit structure, rental policy, and resale. Deposit schedules, short-term rental rules, and HOA structures differ across all three buildings and can change. Buyers should request the current purchase agreement and condominium documents and review them with their own legal, tax, and financial advisors before committing.
• Views and waterfront. The Perigon and Ritz-Carlton South Beach are direct oceanfront. Six Fisher Island offers panoramic Atlantic, Biscayne Bay, and Miami skyline views with private marina infrastructure.
• Privacy. The cleanest differentiator. The Perigon and Ritz-Carlton South Beach are mainland Collins Avenue buildings. Six Fisher Island is the only private-island option of the three.
