Pier Sixty-Six Residences in Fort Lauderdale leads on capacity (164 slips, yachts to 400 feet, delivered 2025), the St. Regis Bahia Mar will berth yachts to 350 feet by late 2029, and entry pricing runs from $1.7 million to $17 million-plus.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a certain buyer, the boat decides the address \u2014 which is why the small group of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hauteresidence.com\/new-developments\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">South Florida new developments<\/a>with private marinas or genuine resident slip access trade at a premium and sell early. This guide ranks the ten strongest as of September 2026, with slip counts, maximum vessel length (LOA), cost structures, and delivery dates \u2014 and closes with the question too few buyers ask before signing: is the slip\u00a0deeded, leased, or licensed?<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The genuine marina projects cluster in four zones. In\u00a0Fort Lauderdale, two megaprojects anchor the category: the delivered\u00a0Pier Sixty-Six Residences\u00a0on its 164-slip superyacht marina, and the\u00a0$2 billion St. Regis Resort &amp; Residences Bahia Mar, whose rebuilt marina will take yachts up to 350 feet, per plans reported by Florida YIMBY in October 2024. Our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hauteresidence.com\/news\/the-st-regis-resort-residences-bahia-mar-the-complete-buyers-guide\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">St. Regis Bahia Mar buyer\u2019s guide<\/a>\u00a0has the tower-by-tower breakdown.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In\u00a0Miami-Dade, the standouts are The Residences at Six Fisher Island (deep-water dockage for yachts to 250 feet), the Bay Harbor Islands boutique cluster (Indian Creek Residences &amp; Yacht Club, La Mar\u00e9), Vita at Grove Isle\u2019s 85-slip island marina, and Pagani Residences in North Bay Village. In\u00a0Hallandale Beach, The Residences at Shell Bay pairs a 48-slip marina with an Auberge-run club. In\u00a0West Palm Beach, Olara and Alba Palm Beach put resident dockage on the Intracoastal near the Safe Harbor Rybovich superyacht yard.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Slip economics are the least transparent part of any waterfront deal. Where slips are leased rather than sold, South Florida marina rates run roughly\u00a0$40 to $60-plus per foot per month\u00a0for larger vessels as of 2026, according to marina-industry guide MarinaSeeker \u2014 so an 80-foot slip can run $38,000 to $58,000 per year before electricity and surcharges. At Pier Sixty-Six, residents get priority access to slips, which are leased separately from the residence, according to project sales material summarized by Manhattan Miami as of 2026.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where dockage is bundled \u2014 Fisher Island\u2019s club structure, Shell Bay\u2019s yacht club, Bay Harbor boutiques that assign slips to units \u2014 the cost is capitalized into the purchase price or membership instead. Deeded-slip resale pricing in new buildings is thinly reported [VERIFY: recent deeded slip sale comps in new South Florida condo marinas]. Model the slip alongside carrying costs; our breakdown of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hauteresidence.com\/news\/what-a-5m-new-development-condo-in-south-florida-really-costs-per-year\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">what a $5M new-development condo really costs per year<\/a>\u00a0shows how fast dockage, dues, and insurance stack.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. Pier Sixty-Six Residences, Fort Lauderdale.\u00a0The benchmark. Tavistock Development Company delivered 122 residences across four buildings in September 2025, wrapped around a 164-slip marina handling yachts up to 400 feet. Tower units listed from $3.3 million to $6.65 million, penthouses to $14.5 million, per sales data summarized by Manhattan Miami as of 2026. Move-in ready \u2014 rare in this category.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. The St. Regis Resort &amp; Residences, Bahia Mar, Fort Lauderdale.\u00a0The Related Group, Tate Capital, and Rok Acquisitions are rebuilding the 40-acre Bahia Mar Yachting Center \u2014 home of the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show \u2014 into a Monaco-styled district: slips for yachts to 350 feet, a 197-key St. Regis hotel, and roughly 160 phase-one condominiums from $4.4 million (hotel residences from $2 million), per Florida YIMBY and Douglas Elliman Development Marketing. Completion is set for late 2029, per Discover South Florida. The site is city-owned land under a long-term ground lease \u2014 see below.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. The Residences at Six Fisher Island.\u00a0Related Group\u2019s 50-unit tower on Fisher Island\u2019s last developable parcel, delivering 2026\u20132027, from roughly $15.5\u2013$17.1 million (about $4,416 per square foot average, per CondoBlackBook as of 2026). Dockage runs through the island\u2019s deep-water marinas, which take yachts to 250 feet, with club membership tied to ownership.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. The Residences at Shell Bay, Hallandale Beach.\u00a0Witkoff and PPG Development\u2019s 108-unit Auberge-branded tower topped out in March 2026 with delivery planned for 2027, priced from about $2 million, per Florida YIMBY. The draw: a\u00a048-slip private marina\u00a0with direct Intracoastal access inside a 150-acre club with a Greg Norman golf course.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. Vita at Grove Isle, Coconut Grove.\u00a0Delivered 2025 on a private island with an\u00a085-slip marina\u00a0\u2014 the largest resident slip count in Miami proper, per CondoBlackBook \u2014 with pricing reported from $2 million to $12 million.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. Indian Creek Residences &amp; Yacht Club, Bay Harbor Islands.\u00a0Landau Properties\u2019 nine-residence boutique with\u00a0six private yacht slips. Remaining homes from $11 million; completion targeted end of 2025, over 80 percent sold, per Florida YIMBY in February 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7. Olara, West Palm Beach.\u00a0A private marina on the Intracoastal at 300 Butler Street, residences from $1.7 million, construction at the 18th floor with completion expected 2028, per the developer\u2019s site as of September 2026 \u2014 with the Safe Harbor Rybovich superyacht yard a short run north.

La Mar\u00e9 Signature Collection, Bay Harbor Islands.\u00a0Boutique Bay Harbor waterfront with\u00a017 private slips, per CondoBlackBook \u2014 among the deepest slip-to-unit ratios in Miami\u2019s boutique tier.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">9. Pagani Residences, North Bay Village.\u00a0The automotive brand\u2019s first residential project includes a resident-exclusive marina for vessels of 100-plus feet, reported pricing from $2 million to $10 million, delivery 2028, per Manhattan Miami\u2019s 2026 marina guide.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">10. Alba Palm Beach, West Palm Beach.\u00a0BGI and Blue Road\u2019s 55-residence boutique (plus four townhomes) on North Flagler Drive with a private dock and resident-only slips, from $2.5 million per the developer\u2019s sales-launch release; delivery was anticipated 2025 [VERIFY: current closing status, September 2026].<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Private-marina new developments compared \u2014 slip counts, vessel limits, terms, and delivery, as of September 2026<\/p>\n<p>ProjectSlip countMax LOASlip cost \/ termsDeliveryPier Sixty-Six Residences, Fort Lauderdale164400 ftLeased separately; resident priorityDelivered Sept 2025St. Regis Bahia Mar, Fort Lauderdale[VERIFY: post-rebuild count]350 ftMarina on city-leased land; terms TBDLate 2029Six Fisher Island, Fisher IslandIsland marinas (100\u00b1 slips)250 ftClub membership with ownership2026\u20132027Shell Bay, Hallandale Beach48[VERIFY]Private club marina (Auberge)2027Vita at Grove Isle, Coconut Grove85110 ft+Resident accessDelivered 2025Indian Creek Res. &amp; Yacht Club, Bay Harbor6[VERIFY]Private slips, 9 residencesLate 2025Olara, West Palm Beach[VERIFY][VERIFY]Private marina, resident use2028La Mar\u00e9 Signature, Bay Harbor Islands17[VERIFY]Private slips2026\u20132027 [VERIFY]Pagani Residences, North Bay VillagePrivate marina100 ft+Resident-exclusive2028Alba Palm Beach, West Palm Beach[VERIFY][VERIFY]Resident-only dock2025\u20132026<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is where slip deals go wrong. The three structures look identical from the dock and behave differently at resale:<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Deeded slips\u00a0are real property. You receive a separate legal description \u2014 or a limited common element permanently assigned to your unit in the declaration of condominium \u2014 you pay taxes on it, and it transfers when you sell. Verify by ordering the recorded declaration from the county and finding the slip in the exhibit, not the brochure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Leased slips\u00a0give you a term, not title. Pier Sixty-Six\u2019s structure \u2014 residence purchase plus separate marina lease \u2014 is the common model at commercial-grade superyacht marinas. Ask for the rate card, the renewal mechanics, and whether resident priority is contractual or a courtesy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Licensed slips\u00a0are the weakest form: a revocable right to use a space, often first-come, sometimes bundled into club membership. Fine for a day boat; risky as a value assumption on a $10 million purchase.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One more layer:\u00a0who owns the land under the water.\u00a0Bahia Mar sits on land the City of Fort Lauderdale owns and leases long-term to the developer [VERIFY: exact ground-lease term and expiry]; submerged land often involves state sovereignty leases as well. None of this is disqualifying \u2014 it simply must be priced.

The rebuilt Bahia Mar marina at the St. Regis project will handle yachts to 350 feet when it completes around late 2029.<\/p>\n<p><a>How much does a boat slip cost at a South Florida condo?<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where slips are leased, South Florida marina rates run roughly $40 to $60-plus per foot per month for larger vessels as of 2026, per industry guide MarinaSeeker \u2014 about $38,000 to $58,000 a year for an 80-foot slip. Deeded or club-bundled slips are capitalized into the purchase price or membership instead.<\/p>\n<p><a>What is the difference between a deeded and a leased boat slip?<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A deeded slip is real property: it is recorded in the condominium declaration or as a separate parcel, is taxable, and transfers with a sale. A leased slip is a contractual right for a term at a rate that can reset. A licensed slip is a revocable use right only. Always confirm the structure in the recorded documents, not marketing material.<\/p>\n<p><a>Does the St. Regis Bahia Mar include a marina for residents?<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. The $2 billion St. Regis Resort &amp; Residences Bahia Mar redevelopment in Fort Lauderdale rebuilds the Bahia Mar Yachting Center with slips for yachts up to 350 feet, per plans reported in 2024. Phase-one condominiums start at $4.4 million and completion is targeted for late 2029. The land is leased long-term from the City of Fort Lauderdale.<\/p>\n<p><a>Are there new condos with private marinas in West Palm Beach?<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. Olara, on the Intracoastal at 300 Butler Street, includes a private marina with residences from $1.7 million and completion expected 2028. Alba Palm Beach, a 55-residence boutique on North Flagler Drive from $2.5 million, has a private dock with resident-only slips. Both sit near the Safe Harbor Rybovich superyacht facility.<\/p>\n<p>Is Shell Bay\u2019s marina open to non-residents?<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Residences at Shell Bay in Hallandale Beach includes a 48-slip private marina with direct Intracoastal access, operated within the Auberge-managed Shell Bay Club. Access runs through the club structure rather than public rental. The 108-unit tower topped out in March 2026 and is planned for 2027 delivery, priced from about $2 million.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As of September 2026, at least ten South Florida new-construction condominiums include private marinas or resident boat slips.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":405886,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[249,251,250],"class_list":["post-405885","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-fort-lauderdale","tag-fort-lauderdale","tag-fort-lauderdale-headlines","tag-fort-lauderdale-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/405885","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=405885"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/405885\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/405886"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=405885"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=405885"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=405885"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
