Located just north of Miami, Shell Bay, Auberge Resorts Collection, will create a new destination for the region, drawing guests and homeowners. Situated on the Intracoastal waterway, the sea-hugging Shell Bay property will enable travelers to arrive by private yacht and enter emerald fairways, sport and leisure facilities and an outdoor dining and cocktail scene.
“We’re thrilled to continue to grow our presence on the Atlantic Coast with the addition of Shell Bay, one of the most stunning waterfront locations in South Florida, to Auberge Resorts Collection’s portfolio of one-of-a-kind properties,” said Dan Friedkin, chairman, Auberge Resorts Collection. “This seaside enclave will offer a unique slice of paradise unlike any other destination in the Miami area.”
The new 130-acre resort will boast a luxury hotel, featuring 60 guestrooms and suites, and a brand new 20-story residential tower with 108 Auberge branded residences. Interior design firm AvroKO has been selected to lead the design of the residences and hotel rooms, which combine open-concept layouts, wraparound terraces and expansive golf course and water views.
The resort grounds, which were designed by landscape architects Nievera Williams, will offer a sport and wellness playground. Boasting the first new private golf course in the Miami area in 25 years, the property’s Greg Norman-designed Championship Golf Course measures 7,250 yards—one of the longest golf courses in South Florida. The property also features a 12-acre professional golf practice facility with the Shell Bay Golf Academy and 9-hole par 3 course.
Beyond private world-class golf, an on-site racquet-sport facility will appeal to tennis enthusiasts. Set in a picturesque garden, the Shell Bay Racquet Club is one of the few facilities in the world to offer all four Grand Slam surfaces, where guests will have their choice of European red and green clay or grass, as well as paddle ball and pickleball courts. The property will also sport a full-size basketball court.
An 18,000-sq.-ft. fitness center and spa facility, designed with future-forward technology and state-of-the-art equipment, will offer a menu of fitness programming, including tailored small-group sessions, a boxing ring, Pilates Reformers and yoga. At the spa, guests will find a comprehensive and holistic treatment menu envisioned by experts in sport, medicine, nutrition and wellness.
The 14,000-sq.-ft. resort pool, complete with a hot tub and spa facilities, is located on the expansive roof deck of the resident towers. From swimming laps and aquatic training to lounging in chic cabanas and dining by the water’s edge, guests can enjoy an elevated vantage point with views of the golf course and waterside property.
The resort’s yacht club will welcome guests who arrive by boat to its 48-slip marina. A boutique market will offer an upscale grog shop for boating essentials and provisions, while a dockside cocktail bar will serve as a well appointed casual gathering spot before or after excursions.
Multiple dining venues with extensive outdoor seating areas, including a Signature Restaurant and Lounge, Member’s Bar & Grill (exclusive to club members) and Pool Grill, will offer comfortable spaces to share casual or celebratory meals with friends and family.
Throughout the resort, noteworthy spaces dedicated to children and teens will be found, including the Outdoor Discovery Park, Children’s Play Lab & Creation Studio, Teens Club & Game Room and Multi-sports Simulator Lounge, offering fun and enriching destination-inspired activities with family in mind.
Indoor meeting spaces will also be plentiful, with a 9,000-sq.-ft. ballroom and an expansive outdoor terrace ideal for weddings and special events.
