Brazilian football legend Roberto Carlos \u2014 long considered one of the greatest left-backs ever to play the game \u2014 has purchased two units at Viceroy Residences Fort Lauderdale<\/a>, the city’s first Viceroy-branded condominium tower, developer Naftali Group<\/a> announced this week. The purchase quietly adds another international name to a Fort Lauderdale luxury market that has spent the last few years broadening its global appeal far beyond its traditional buyer base.<\/p>\n

The 45-story, 500-foot tower in Flagler Village offers 251 one- to four-bedroom residences with expansive terraces, floor-to-ceiling windows, and more than 30,000 square feet of curated amenity space \u2014 a full-service spa, multiple pools and lounges, a wine and sound bar, a karaoke room, a VR simulator room, and exclusive beach club access. A penthouse collection was recently unveiled at a combined $20 million, introducing what the developer is calling Flagler Village’s only private rooftop spas and the city’s first Viceroy-branded penthouses.<\/p>\n

Resident programming extends well beyond the residences themselves. The tower will house a 15,000-square-foot restaurant and private members’ club operated by The h.wood Group<\/a> \u2014 the Los Angeles-based hospitality company behind celebrity-favored concepts like Delilah and The Nice Guy. Residents also receive Premier Residence Partner status with The FORT, Fort Lauderdale’s leading pickleball club, plus a curated global lifestyle calendar that runs from access to local sporting and fashion events to behind-the-scenes tours of cultural destinations, fitness activations, pet and plant care, and in-residence garden services.<\/p>\n

The tower is designed by Miami-based Arquitectonica<\/a>, one of South Florida’s most defining architectural firms, with interiors by New York’s Rockwell Group<\/a>, the studio known for hospitality-led design across Equinox, NoMad, and the W Hotels brand identity. Together, the pairing positions Viceroy Residences Fort Lauderdale as one of the most design-deliberate towers rising in Flagler Village.<\/p>\n

“Fort Lauderdale is a place I’ve been coming to for years, and I’ve always felt a strong connection to this city,” Carlos said in a statement. “When I saw Viceroy Residences Fort Lauderdale, I was drawn to the project right away. The design, energy and lifestyle all felt special.” His purchase reflects a broader shift in the city’s buyer pool \u2014 one that increasingly mirrors patterns established years earlier in Miami and Palm Beach \u2014 as Fort Lauderdale’s luxury hospitality, dining, and residential pipeline continues to accelerate.<\/p>\n
