Sonesta Hotel Coconut Grove is the 22-story condo-hotel at 2889 McFarlane Road, right in the center of the Grove's village. It opened in 2002 as the Sonesta Bayfront Hotel, and the important part is in the format: every key is a deeded condo owned by an individual. You can live in your unit, lease it long term, or put it into the on-site hotel rental program and collect nightly revenue. Shoppers researching Sonesta Hotel Coconut Grove should know the brand is gone from the marquee. The hotel operation was sold in 2018 and rebranded as Hotel Aria, so current listings for Sonesta Hotel Coconut Grove appear under the Sonesta, Mutiny Park, and Hotel Aria names alike.
Both. It is a condo-hotel. Each of the roughly 213 units at Sonesta Hotel Coconut Grove is an individually owned condominium, and owners can occupy the unit, rent it themselves, or enroll it in the hotel's rental program. When you buy here, you get a real deed, not a timeshare week.
Same tower, different eras. It opened in 2002 as the Sonesta Bayfront Hotel Coconut Grove, also known then as the Mutiny Park condominiums. Sonesta bought the hotel lot outright in 2010. In 2018 the common areas and hotel operation were sold to the Kishan Group, which rebranded it Hotel Aria (now styled Hotel Arya). Listings under any of the three names describe this same address.
Owners may place their unit in the hotel's rental program and share nightly revenue, or keep the unit private and manage it independently. Reporting at the time of the 2018 sale noted about 140 of the keys were in the program while others had moved to self-managed platforms like Airbnb and VRBO. Check current HOA rules before buying for income.
Layouts run from studios to three bedrooms, roughly 365 to 2,026 square feet. Most carry private balconies with Biscayne Bay or Miami skyline views. Amenities include the rooftop pool deck, the Panorama Restaurant and Sky Lounge with bay views, a fitness center with squash courts, meeting space, and 24-hour front desk service.
Yes. The building offers immediate occupancy and a pet-friendly policy for owners, which makes Sonesta Hotel Coconut Grove workable as a primary residence, not just an investment unit. Full-time residents get the same walkable village location as the hotel guests, with condo ownership carrying standard HOA dues on top of the optional hotel program participation.
It sits at the heart of Center Grove with a Walk Score in the high 90s. Peacock Park and the Dinner Key marina sit just across McFarlane Road. CocoWalk and the village shops are a few minutes on foot.
Condo-hotels confuse first-time buyers, so here is the plain version. At Sonesta Hotel Coconut Grove, you own the unit outright and the HOA runs the building. The hotel brand runs the front desk, the restaurant, and the nightly rental program, and you choose whether your unit participates. That split is exactly why this tower is also profiled on this site as Mutiny Park, its original condominium name. If you are comparing hotel-adjacent ownership in the Grove, the Ritz Carlton Coconut Grove residences offer the other flavor of it: full-service condos wired into a neighboring luxury hotel rather than inside the hotel itself.
Buyers who want the hotel life without nightly guests have options in the same village. The resale market at Sonesta Hotel Coconut Grove tends to favor studios and one-bedrooms, which work well as pied-a-terre units and as rentals. Cash flow math matters more than square footage here, so underwrite the HOA dues and the rental program split before falling for the rooftop view.
The address is the pitch for Sonesta Hotel Coconut Grove. Across the street sits Peacock Park, nine bayfront acres where peacocks roam and locals run the bay walk. Dinner Key Marina is a short stroll east, home to the open-air Monty's Raw Bar, a Grove institution for dockside drinks. Shopping and dining at CocoWalk start a few blocks north, and the walkable village around it means most errands never need a car.
Similar walk-everywhere living shows up nearby at the Lofts at Mayfair on Virginia Street and South 27 Lofts, both loft-style buildings within the same village core. For buyers cross-shopping condo-hotels across the county, the 2010 Sonesta purchase release still reads as a good history of the format: Sonesta's acquisition of the Bayfront Hotel. The 2018 sale that ended the Sonesta era is documented here: Sonesta Hotel at Coconut Grove sold.
