400K SF Of Retail Coming To One Of South Florida’s Biggest New Destinations

Sunbeam Development Corporation, owner of the 125-acre Miramar Cove, has engaged Colliers to lead retail leasing for the mixed-use waterfront destination now under construction in Miramar.

The assignment brings together Colliers’ Orlando-based mixed-use retail team and its South Florida retail team, backed by the firm’s national platform and retailer relationships. Together, they will curate and recruit a strong mix of shops, restaurants and entertainment concepts for one of the region’s largest new lifestyle destinations. Retailers will have an opportunity to fill a significant gap in retail and entertainment options along a growing corridor stretching from northwest Miami-Dade County to southern Palm Beach County.

The Colliers team leading the assignment includes Executive Vice President David Gabbai, Senior Vice President Alexie Fonseca and their Orlando-based colleagues, who specialize in ground-up mixed-use development, alongside Nicole Fontaine and Jake Horowitz from the firm’s South Florida team. The combination of national mixed-use expertise and local market knowledge positions the team to pursue both established national brands and best-in-class concepts that reflect the character of the development and the community it will serve.

“Miramar Cove represents a rare opportunity to curate a truly transformational mixed-use destination in South Florida,” said Fonseca. “Our leasing strategy will focus on bringing together best-in-class retail, dining, entertainment, wellness and experiential concepts that complement the project’s extraordinary waterfront setting and create a destination with energy from morning through evening.”

Miramar Cove broke ground in May 2026 and will deliver approximately 400,000 square feet of retail, dining, and entertainment space anchored by a 35,000-square-foot grocer, alongside 2,874 residences with a private beach club, 125,000 square feet of Class A office, a 185-key full-service hotel, a boardwalk, and more than 40 acres of parks and trails. At the center of the development is the signature 5.5-acre translucent blue water cove by Blue Mar Basin, creating a true waterfront dining and gathering district unlike anything else in Southeast Florida. The development is being built by Fort Lauderdale-based Stiles Corporation, one of the Southeast’s most experienced commercial real estate development and construction firms.

The project is adjacent to Sunbeam’s 500-acre Miramar Park of Commerce, home to more than 15,000 employees across 165 national and international companies. Miramar Cove also sits minutes from the 65,000-seat Hard Rock Stadium, which hosts more than 100 major events annually.

The first phase of Miramar Cove is expected to open in the fourth quarter of 2028.
