The Estates at Acqualina’s Model Unit Sales Center is Huge, and Fully Functional

The Estates at Acqualina, which is bringing two more gigantic towers to the lavish and rambling Acqualina Resort & Spa complex in Sunny Isles Beach, just took the cake top off of its extremely at new sales center and model unit which closely duplicates a typical end unit in either building to almost every detail.

To achieve that, it had to be big, considering the typical end unit at the Estates is from approximately 3,500 to over 5,000, in just interior square footage. As icing on the cake, unlike many sales center set ups, and model unit interiors, this place is fully functional. The lights, of course, work, but so do the toilets in the model bathrooms, and the kitchen sink that can be activated by a foot sensor. The host tub gets hot, and the sauna gets hot too.

Connected by a multilevel amenities complex called ‘The Villa’ (which looks, you guessed it, like a villa) the towers are not actually perfectly symmetrical. The north tower has four units per floor, and the south tower has just two, a system that works more efficiently for private elevator access than two matching towers of 3-unit floors. Units come standard with little tricks treats like fountain-fed hot tubs, outdoor saunas accessed via wrap-around balcony, midnight kitchens in the master suite, gas fireplaces, hi-end wine dispensing/preserving appliances, and more marble than at a cemetery in a place called Carrera in Italy. Oh, and the penthouse will have hanging glass pools, just like the one over at the Mansions at Acqualina.
