The Waves delivers the boutique oceanfront lifestyle that defines Surfside's appeal — a 12-story building of roughly 109 residences with a heated pool, Jacuzzi, full-service concierge, doorman, valet parking, sauna, fitness center, community room, and deeded direct beach access. The building's glass-forward facade, designed by Sklar Isaac & Associates Architects, creates an open, light-filled presence on Collins Avenue and reflects the ocean-facing orientation of nearly every floor plan inside. Most residences capture views of the Atlantic Ocean or Biscayne Bay from their private balconies. Surfside occupies a prized half-mile stretch of barrier island between Miami Beach to the south and Bal Harbour to the north — making The Waves one of the few genuinely walkable oceanfront addresses in the area. Bal Harbour Shops (Hermès, Chanel, Prada, Gucci, Neiman Marcus) are within comfortable walking distance north along Collins Avenue. A Publix grocery store, local restaurants, cafes, and the Surfside Community Center and tennis courts are all steps from the building. North Shore Open Space Park extends to the south along the oceanfront. Aventura Mall is approximately 20 minutes by car; South Beach is about 25 minutes; Miami International Airport is roughly 30 minutes. The Waves was completed in 1991 and designed by Sklar Isaac & Associates Architects. The building rises 12 stories with approximately 109 residences, the vast majority of which are two-bedroom floor plans ranging from approximately 1,170 to 1,560 interior square feet; one-, three-, and four-bedroom configurations are also available. Units feature in-unit washer/dryer, walk-in closets, central cooling, and a dishwasher — the practical conveniences expected of a full-time residential building. The building includes a Shabbat elevator in recognition of Surfside's close-knit Jewish community, a detail that reflects its character as a genuine residential home rather than a transient rental asset. The Waves stands out in Surfside's limited oceanfront inventory as a mid-size, owner-focused building — long-term leases only (six-month minimum), a no-pets policy that keeps the building quiet, and a scale that fosters a tight community among residents. In a stretch of coastline where oceanfront product is scarce and rarely turns over, The Waves offers an accessible entry point into Surfside's premier addresses for buyers who want a genuine beachfront lifestyle without the density of Sunny Isles or the price premium of Bal Harbour immediately to the north.
