Biscayne Point

Biscayne Point is a quiet, gated residential island tucked into Biscayne Bay at the northern end of Miami Beach, a tranquil enclave of waterfront homes set well away from the crowds and traffic of South Beach. Reached by a single guarded entrance, the island loops around leafy, low-traffic streets, with many houses backing directly onto the bay and its own small stretch of sand and dock frontage along the water.

The appeal is calm and privacy within easy reach of everything Miami Beach offers. The wide sands of North Beach are close by, the Art Deco core and nightlife of South Beach lie a short drive down Collins Avenue, and the open water of the bay is on the doorstep for boating and fishing. It is a residential address first, favoured by those who want the water and the sun without the bustle.

The high season follows the region’s, from December to April, when the weather is warm, dry and reliable; summer is hotter and quieter, with the Atlantic hurricane season worth keeping in mind. Life here centres on the water and the nearby beach.

For families and groups who want a private, waterfront base with a pool and a dock, luxury villa rentals in Biscayne Point offer seclusion within minutes of the wider Miami Beach.
