Moving in Sunny Isles Beach, FL
Sunny Isles is the strip of ultra-luxury oceanfront condos along Collins Avenue between Bal Harbour to the south and Golden Beach to the north — Acqualina, Mansions at Acqualina, Trump Royale, Trump Towers I/II/III, Jade Beach, Jade Ocean, Jade Signature, Estates at Acqualina, Privé Island, Chateau Beach. The most-moved buildings on the Florida east coast, and the most-COI-strict.
What’s different about Sunny Isles moves
- Pre-arrival concierge coordination. Every Sunny Isles tower wants the crew lead checked in by name with the concierge desk before the freight elevator opens. We pre-send the crew manifest.
- Floor-by-floor restrictions. Some buildings (Acqualina, Mansions) restrict simultaneous moves to one per tower per day. Booking ahead matters more here.
- Insurance limits. A few Sunny Isles HOAs require COIs with $2M aggregate coverage rather than the standard $1M — we have the secondary rider on file.
- White-glove expectations. Move-in/out customers tend to expect floor runners, corner protection, and gloves on every crew member. Standard for us, but worth flagging.
