Sole on the Ocean is a beachfront condo-hotel in Sunny Isles Beach that feels like a vacation spot you can actually live in. Completed in 2007 and designed by architect Kobi Karp, this tower rises along Collins Avenue and combines 147 condominium residences with 250 hotel suites, so you get the energy and service of a hotel with the comfort of a private home.
The residences come in studio, one-, and two-bedroom layouts, with sizes roughly in the 600–1,400 sq ft range plus balconies. Inside, the style is clean and modern—European kitchen cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an open kitchen setup with countertop seating that’s perfect for casual meals. You’ll also find marble floors in the kitchen and bathrooms, designer fixtures, frameless glass shower doors, and a washer and dryer in the unit. Each home includes a private terrace with glass railings, so you can enjoy the ocean breeze and views of the Atlantic, Intracoastal, and city skyline.
Amenities here are all about that resort lifestyle. There’s an oceanfront infinity-edge pool and sundeck, direct beach access, cabanas, and a beachfront signature restaurant and bar with a poolside snack option. The fitness center faces the water, and the spa includes wet-area features for a true “reset” kind of day. The lobby is also a standout—two stories tall with a polished, welcoming feel, plus a landscaped entrance with water features that sets the tone when you arrive.
Because it’s a condo-hotel, services are a big perk. Residents can enjoy concierge support, room service, housekeeping options, a business center, 24-hour security, valet parking, and secured covered parking. It’s also pet-friendly, which is a nice bonus.
Location-wise, Sole on the Ocean sits at 17315 Collins Avenue, right between Bal Harbour Shops and Aventura Mall. You’re about 8 minutes from Aventura Mall, 10 minutes from Bal Harbour Shops, and around 35 minutes from South Beach’s Lincoln Road. Both major airports are also within easy reach—about 25 minutes to Fort Lauderdale International and 35 minutes to Miami International.
