Mandarin Oriental, Miami Hotel and Residences

Held on Brickell Key, the ceremonial shovel-in-ground event brought together leadership from Mandarin Oriental, Swire Properties, project partners and invited guests to celebrate the next phase of a landmark destination set to redefine luxury hospitality, residential living and lifestyle experiences in Miami.

The project builds on Mandarin Oriental's longstanding connection to the city while introducing a bold expression of the brand for the future. Central to the project is Mandarin Oriental's longstanding partnership with Swire Properties, continuing a shared history on Brickell Key. The development brings together this enduring partnership with globally renowned architecture practice KPF, whose two-tower design provides the architectural vision for the new destination.

For the groundbreaking, Mandarin Oriental brought together talent from across its global portfolio, creating a rare opportunity to experience in one evening the creativity, craftsmanship and hospitality that distinguish the brand. The culinary journey included Pizza Omakase-inspired creations from Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo; Mediterranean flavours from Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino; signature desserts from Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok; and cocktails showcasing talent from Mandarin Oriental, Shenzhen and Mandarin Oriental, Vienna.

The groundbreaking follows strong market response to The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, developed by Swire Properties. Residential sales have surpassed $1.7 billion to date, including record-setting transactions and pricing. This demand underscores confidence in the project's long-term vision and reflects the continued appeal of hospitality-led residential living anchored by the Mandarin Oriental brand.

Within Mandarin Oriental's expanding global portfolio, Miami will form part of a new generation of hotels, residences and mixed-use destinations shaped by their locations and by a broader ambition for the guest experience. The openings of Mandarin Oriental, Mallorca and Mandarin Oriental, Vienna in 2026, followed by Rome and Cortina in 2027, reflect this period of growth and the continued evolution of the Group's portfolio.

Mandarin Oriental, Miami and The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami brings the Group's growing expertise in hospitality-led residential living to Brickell Key, combining world-class service, exceptional design and curated lifestyle experiences within one destination. The project builds on a global portfolio of 16 Mandarin Oriental Residences in operation and a pipeline of 20 new residences set to open by 2031, including announced projects in Kanai, Riviera Maya, Grand Cayman, Puerto Rico and West Palm Beach. In Miami, that experience supports a long-term commitment to creating a destination for residents and travelers alike.
