Ritz Carlton Bal Harbour
Ritz Carlton Bal Harbour — the Residences at the Ritz-Carlton, originally developed as One Bal Harbour — is the village's northernmost luxury address: a 26-story oceanfront condominium at 10295 Collins Avenue, completed in 2007 by WCI Communities and designed by Nichols, Brosch, Sandoval & Associates. The roughly 185 private residences at Ritz Carlton Bal Harbour run from studios to two-bedrooms (about 500 to 2,000 square feet), many as lockout suites configurable for personal use or hotel rental. Perched beside Haulover Cut, the tower trades postcard inlet views — boats, the marina, the park across the water...
Ritz Carlton Bal Harbour
Ritz Carlton Bal Harbour — the Residences at the Ritz-Carlton, originally developed as One Bal Harbour — is the village's northernmost luxury address: a 26-story oceanfront condominium at 10295 Collins Avenue, completed in 2007 by WCI Communities and designed by Nichols, Brosch, Sandoval & Associates. The roughly 185 private residences at Ritz Carlton Bal Harbour run from studios to two-bedrooms (about 500 to 2,000 square feet), many as lockout suites configurable for personal use or hotel rental. Perched beside Haulover Cut, the tower trades postcard inlet views — boats, the marina, the park across the water — alongside direct Atlantic frontage. As a condo-hotel, it supports one of the village's most established rental programs, with long-term leases readily available. The for-sale market caters to buyers who want the Ritz-Carlton service standard with a manageable, lock-and-leave footprint.
Ritz Carlton Bal Harbour Frequently Asked Questions
❯ What was One Bal Harbour?
One Bal Harbour was the project's original name when WCI Communities developed it; the Residences at the Ritz-Carlton branding came with the hotel flag. Longtime locals still use both names, so listings may appear under either. The building, architect, and address — 10295 Collins Avenue — are the same.
❯ How does the rental program work?
As a condo-hotel, Ritz Carlton Bal Harbour owners can place their residence in the hotel's rental program or lease independently on a long-term basis — MLS records show a 6-month minimum with up to two leases per year for independent leases, and the building is pet-friendly. The lockout suite design (studios that combine into larger units) was built for rental flexibility. Confirm current program terms, splits, and fees with the association before buying for income.
❯ What views do units get?
The signature view is Haulover Cut: the inlet, the passing boats, and Haulover Beach Park across the water — a living panorama no other Bal Harbour tower offers. Oceanfront lines face due east over the Atlantic, and higher floors add Intracoastal and bay views to the west. Many residences feature private elevator landings, multiple balconies, and unobstructed sightlines.
❯ What amenities are included?
The Ritz Carlton Bal Harbour service standard brings a full-service spa and fitness center, two pools, beach club with food-and-beverage beach service, on-site restaurants and bars, a kids club, a private theatre, 24-hour concierge and security, valet parking, and a jogging path and fishing pier along the water.
❯ Who buys here?
Two profiles dominate: lock-and-leave owners seeking a pied-à-terre with hotel services and rental upside, and investors drawn to the established condo-hotel program. The smaller floor plans (studios from about 500 square feet) keep entry prices below the village's large-format towers, with recent pricing from the mid-$3 millions to about $7 million.
❯ How far is it from the Bal Harbour Shops?
About a six-minute drive south on Collins Avenue — close enough for easy dinners and shopping, far enough to feel like a retreat. The northern position also puts Haulover Park, the marina, and Sunny Isles Beach at the doorstep, with Aventura Mall a short drive west.

The Condo-Hotel Model at Ritz Carlton Bal Harbour
The lockout design is the building's financial engine: a two-bedroom can split into a one-bedroom plus studio, each rentable separately through the hotel program. For owners, that means the residence flexes between a spacious personal retreat and two income-producing keys — a versatility that pure-residential towers like neighboring Oceana Bal Harbour or the St. Regis Bal Harbour can't replicate in the same way.
Haulover Cut: The View No Other Tower Has
Every Bal Harbour tower sells the ocean; only this one sells the inlet. Watching yachts thread Haulover Cut from a 25th-floor balcony, with the park's green across the water, is the building's unrepeatable amenity — and the reason its view corridors hold value independent of unit size. Pair that with the Ritz-Carlton service standard and you get the village's most distinctive hospitality-branded ownership.
