The Plaza Bal Harbour

The Plaza Bal Harbour is the village's classic entry point to oceanfront ownership: a 1965 waterfront condominium at 10185 Collins Avenue with roughly 350 one- and two-bedroom residences spread across 16 stories. Homes run about 990 to 1,520 square feet and take in the Atlantic, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the Miami skyline. The building is currently working through a major 50-year recertification — new glass balconies, refreshed hallways, a redesigned lobby, and a new gym — so buyers here get 1960s bones with a steadily modernizing finish.

The Plaza Bal Harbour

The Plaza Bal Harbour is the village's classic entry point to oceanfront ownership: a 1965 waterfront condominium at 10185 Collins Avenue with roughly 350 one- and two-bedroom residences spread across 16 stories. Homes run about 990 to 1,520 square feet and take in the Atlantic, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the Miami skyline. The building is currently working through a major 50-year recertification — new glass balconies, refreshed hallways, a redesigned lobby, and a new gym — so buyers here get 1960s bones with a steadily modernizing finish. Resale listings at The Plaza Bal Harbour stay active, and long-term rentals are common, with MLS records showing minimum lease terms of 90 to 180 days.

The Plaza Bal Harbour Frequently Asked Questions

❯ What is the 50-year recertification changing at the building?

The project adds brand-new glass balconies, high-impact glass windows, refreshed hallways, a redesigned lobby, and a fully repainted exterior. Sellers describe the work as a transformation of the building's curb appeal and long-term value, and photos in recent listings show renderings of the finished look. Buyers should ask for the latest assessment and completion schedule before writing an offer.

❯ What do the floor plans look like?

Residences are one- and two-bedroom layouts between roughly 990 and 1,520 square feet, with the largest two-bedroom plans at The Plaza Bal Harbour offering direct ocean views from nearly every room. Recent sales highlight renovated kitchens with quartz counters, impact windows, and updated appliances. The east-facing lines are the most coveted for sunrise-over-the-Atlantic views.

❯ Can owners rent out their units?

Yes — the building supports a long-term rental market. MLS records for the property show minimum lease terms ranging from 90 to 180 days, with owners permitted one to two leases per year depending on the unit record. Association approval is required for tenants, so investors should confirm the current leasing rules and approval timeline with the association before purchasing.

❯ How does beach access work?

Residents of The Plaza Bal Harbour have deeded beach access, putting the sand steps from the front door at 101st Street and Collins. The building also offers a heated swimming pool, spa and hot tub, a fitness center, a billiards and social room, valet parking, and 24-hour security and concierge service — a full-service setup for a 1960s-vintage tower.

❯ What are the HOA fees and what do they cover?

Recent listings show monthly dues roughly between $1,100 and $1,400 depending on unit size, covering cable, insurance, water and sewer, pool service, pest control, security, and management — often lower than newer towers’ dues.

❯ Why do buyers pick this tower over newer Bal Harbour condos?

Price per square foot. The Plaza delivers a genuine Bal Harbour oceanfront address — minutes from the Bal Harbour Shops — at a fraction of the cost of the village's glass towers, and the ongoing recertification is modernizing the common areas. For buyers who want the beach and the zip code without the ultra-luxury premium, it remains one of the most practical options on Collins Avenue.
