Silver Sands Residences Key Biscayne

Where the Silver Sands Name Comes From

The Silver Sands Beach Resort was a low-rise oceanfront hotel on Key Biscayne, built in 1956 and known for its small scale and direct beach access. Its address, 301 Ocean Drive, is now the site of the planned condominium.

It is sometimes confused with the former Sonesta Beach Resort, but that was a different property, at 350 Ocean Drive, where Oceana Key Biscayne now stands.

What Is Planned on the Site

Coverage of the October 2026 financing describes an approved ultra-luxury building of 14 stories and 56 residences, designed by Touzet Studio and ODP, with a subterranean parking garage. Florida YIMBY reported that the design takes a tropical-modern approach with native landscaping and resiliency measures such as rain gardens and a cistern.

Because the developers have not released a plan book, residence sizes, layouts, and amenity details should be treated as preliminary until the official sales materials are published.

Is 'Silver Sands Residences' the Official Name?

Not confirmed. "Silver Sands" is how the press and many brokers refer to the project, and a Walker & Dunlop executive referred to it as Silver Sands in the financing announcement. The developers have not published an official brand name, and one broker report links the project to One&Only branding — also unconfirmed.

Pricing and Timing

No official price list has been released. Reported figures range from about $4 million to $18 million and up per residence. Pre-construction sales are expected to launch before the end of 2026, following the $220 million predevelopment loan from Blackstone.

Registering before launch is the simplest way to receive the official price sheet, floor plans, and deposit schedule as soon as they are distributed.
