If you're considering Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove, pricing and unit layout are probably your first questions. Let me break down the numbers so you understand what you're actually getting, and how this compares to other Miami pre-construction launches in the $6M-$12M price range.
The Pricing Framework
Four Seasons Coconut Grove operates on a tiered pricing model based on location within the building:
- Lower floors: residence 304 (2 bed, 2,085 SF) at $6,220,000, residence 402 (3 bed, 3,030 SF) at $9,060,000 and residence 401 (4 bed, 3,974 SF) at $12,470,000
- Upper floors: three bedroom residences 1403, 1903, 1904 and 2004 between $10,600,000 and $11,700,000
- Penthouses (Floors 19-20): Premium positioning, private rooftop pools, 6,425-9,700 SF, pricing on request
Here's what separates this project from other Miami launches: the deposit structure is genuinely buyer-friendly. You're looking at 20% at contract and 20% at groundbreaking, not the 40-50% upfront you'll see at projects backed by less experienced developers. That means your cash tied up is manageable until actual construction begins.
Floor Plan Breakdown
Four Seasons Coconut Grove offers five primary floor plan types across the 70-unit portfolio:
Two-Bedroom Residences
Starting at approximately 2,025 SF, the 2-bed layouts appeal to empty-nesters and investors seeking waterfront exposure without committing to a 3+ bedroom footprint. These units typically include two full baths, flexible den space, and the full Bönan interior treatment. On the September 2026 list, residence 304 works out to about $2,983 per interior square foot.
Three-Bedroom Residences
The market sweet spot. Three-bedroom units range from 2,600-3,200 SF and target primary residents seeking space for family, guests, and a home office. On the September 2026 list, three bedrooms run from $9,060,000 to $11,700,000.
Four-Bedroom Residences
The largest non-penthouse option at 3,400-3,975 SF. These are marketed toward international buyers, multi-generational families, and investors planning long-term leases. Premium pricing reflects the scarcity, only a handful per floor. Residence 401 is listed at $12,470,000.
Penthouses
This is where the project gets interesting. Penthouses range from 6,425 SF (two-story) to 9,700 SF (multi-level) and sit on the 19th and 20th floors with private rooftop pools and outdoor space that rivals many single-family homes. Penthouse pricing is on request.
How This Compares to Mandarin Oriental and Other Waterfront Launches
I've been selling Miami luxury pre-construction for over 20 years, so I track these numbers closely. Here's the honest comparison:
Four Seasons Coconut Grove: about $2,980 to $3,780 per interior SF on the September 2026 list. International Four Seasons brand premium. Small footprint (70 units). Direct Biscayne Bay location. Michele Bönan interiors.
Mandarin Oriental Residences (Brickell Key): Launched at approximately $2,100-$2,500/SF. Slightly denser (150+ units). Private island positioning. Mandarin branding premium.
St. Regis Residences Miami (Brickell): Pricing ranged $2,200-$2,700/SF. Larger tower, more inventory, urban location.
What I notice: Four Seasons Coconut Grove is aggressively priced relative to comparable branded towers. You're getting world-class interiors, Four Seasons service, and premiere waterfront positioning at a $100-200/SF discount compared to Mandarin Oriental. That's your value proposition. The trade-off: slightly smaller unit count means less amenity density, but also a more exclusive community.
Understanding the Pricing Trajectory
Pre-construction pricing is typically front-loaded to benefit early buyers. Here's how it usually works: Launch pricing (what you see today) represents the lowest point. As the project progresses and units sell, pricing rises 3-5% per phase. Pricing on remaining inventory can change as construction advances.
Locking in a 2-bed at $6.22M today fixes your contract price; no appreciation is promised.
Why the Deposit Structure Matters
I mention the 20/20 deposit structure repeatedly because it's genuinely important. Here's why: many pre-construction projects require 40-50% upfront, which means your capital is tied up for 3+ years. Four Seasons splits the burden:
- 20% at contract (reservation deposit)
- 20% at groundbreaking (typically 12-18 months later)
- 60% at closing (when you take possession)
This is investor-friendly structuring. Your money stays accessible longer. If Four Seasons decides to extend timelines, you're not over-leveraged. And if you need liquidity, you have flexibility that projects with heavy upfront deposits don't offer.
Financing and Mortgage Terms
Lenders are actively financing Four Seasons Coconut Grove. Expect 70-80% LTV (loan-to-value) for qualified buyers, meaning you'll need 20-30% down payment. Interest rates float with the Fed, but right now you're looking at 6.5-7.5% for pre-construction. That said, I recommend locking rate locks at commitment, don't gamble on rates dropping between now and closing.
The Floor Plan Checklist
Here's what I always tell buyers to evaluate when comparing floor plans:
- Terrace depth: Bay Residences offer deeper terraces due to the building's setback on lower floors. Tower units have smaller terraces but superior views. Evaluate your lifestyle preference.
- Master suite positioning: Bay units front ocean views in the master. Tower units vary, some master bedrooms face the city, some the water. Check each floor plan specifically.
- Kitchen workflow: Bönan kitchens are designed for serious cooking. Pantry access, counter space, and appliance placement all matter. Don't overlook functionality for aesthetics.
- Den vs bedroom count: Some 2-bed units include a dedicated den. If you work from home, that den-plus-bedroom split is more functional than a tight 3-bed.
- Laundry: Every unit includes in-residence washer/dryer. That's standard at this price point but worth confirming.
Rental and Ownership Considerations
I need to be honest: if you're buying for rental income, Four Seasons Coconut Grove is not a short-term cash flow play. Rents at this price point are modest relative to purchase price, and no rental income is promised. What you're really buying is the residence and the luxury amenity experience.
That said, four-bedroom penthouses attract high-net-worth international renters. No appreciation is promised; the case is long-term ownership of a scarce branded residence.
