Miami’s skyline is about to get another giant, and this one comes with a tennis legend attached. Aman Group has announced ATMA Miami, a 1,049-foot tower planned for the Brickell waterfront, with Novak Djokovic signed on as the brand’s global partner.
I’ve seen plenty of luxury towers announced in Florida, but few built around padel courts and recovery rooms. This one puts more than 120,000 square feet of sport and wellness space at the heart of the plan.
The doors won’t open until 2031, so nobody is booking a room yet. Still, there is a lot to know about what’s coming to Biscayne Bay.
A Tower As Tall As Miami Allows
ATMA Miami is planned for 1111 Brickell Bay Drive, right on the edge of Biscayne Bay. At 1,049 feet, or about 320 meters, it reaches the tallest height the Federal Aviation Administration allows in this part of the city.
That puts it level with the Waldorf Astoria Miami, the downtown tower now under construction at the same height limit. Florida had no supertall buildings a few years ago, and now two are on the way.
Inside, the plan calls for a hotel, branded residences, and a private members club called the ATMA Club.
Curved Balconies And An Art Deco Touch
SHoP Architects is designing the tower. The renderings show two slim halves joined by a strip of glass that runs the full height of the building.
Rounded balconies wrap every floor, so the sides look like stacked ribbons from below. Near the top, the tower steps back in stages before ending in a pair of fluted crowns.
Those setbacks give the shape a slight Art Deco feel. That suits Miami, a city that built its look on that style almost a century ago.
What Djokovic Actually Does Here
Djokovic is not the developer, and he is not listed as an owner or investor. His title is global partner, and the job is about what happens inside the building.
According to Aman, he will lead the brand’s longevity, nutrition, racquet, and wellness programming. He also reportedly had a hand in designing the wellness center.
It fits his reputation. Djokovic has spent two decades talking about diet, sleep, and recovery, and he was already working with Aman before this deal.
More Than 120,000 Square Feet For Sport And Recovery
This is the part that sets the tower apart. The wellness center covers more than 120,000 square feet, which Aman bills as the largest of its kind in Miami.
The plan includes indoor tennis, squash, and padel courts. There’s also a thermal spa, a fitness center, training studios, and a medical wellness center.
Recovery gets its own dedicated spaces, along with what the brand calls mobility and conditioning labs. Dining is meant to follow the same idea, with menus built around nutrition.
A New Brand From The Aman Family
ATMA is Aman Group’s third hotel brand, after Aman and Janu. The name comes from Sanskrit and means “the spirit” or “the true self.”
Aman built its name on small, quiet resorts in remote places. ATMA goes a different way, with a big-city tower built around sport and what the company calls “performance living.”
Miami is the first location, and so far the only one announced. The company says more will follow in both cities and remote destinations.
The Record Land Deal Behind It
The site covers 4.25 acres with 485 feet of bay frontage. OKO Group and Oak Row Equities bought it in December 2025 for $520 million, a record price for a development site in South Florida.
OKO Group belongs to Vlad Doronin, who is also the chairman and CEO of Aman. His company already built the 830 Brickell office tower a few blocks away.
The new tower replaces an office building and the Yacht Club Apartments. The developers called the property the largest and last site of its scale left in Brickell.
Residences, A Marina, And The Baywalk
Residences will range from one bedroom to six-bedroom penthouses. Early reports put the count at 480 homes, though Aman has not yet said how many hotel rooms there will be.
Owners get priority for the invitation-only members club. They also get access to a private marina on the bay.
For everyone else, the most useful detail may be the Baywalk. The project is set to connect to the five-mile waterfront path, so you can walk past the tower even if you never check in.
When It Opens
Completion is expected in 2031. Prices for rooms and residences have not been announced.
That timeline could move. Aman’s second brand, Janu, launched in 2020 and has opened just one hotel so far, in Tokyo.
Until then, Brickell Bay Drive is worth a stroll if you’re in Miami. You’ll be able to say you saw the spot before the tower went up.
