Continuum South Beach Floor Plans | South Tower & North Tower Complete Guide
Continuum South Beach — Floor Plans
At 100 and 50 South Pointe Drive in Miami Beach's South of Fifth neighborhood, Continuum South Beach sits on 12 acres at the southeastern tip of Miami Beach — the point lot where South Pointe Park meets the Atlantic Ocean, overlooking Government Cut, Fisher Island, and the Port of Miami. Developed by Ian Bruce Eichner and designed by Fullerton-Diaz Architects, the two-tower complex was delivered in two phases: the South Tower in 2002 and the North Tower in 2008. Together they comprise 521 residences — 318 in the South Tower, 203 in the North Tower — across 26 distinct condo floor plans and five townhouse configurations.
Over two decades since the South Tower's delivery, Continuum remains the benchmark South Beach luxury condo address in South of Fifth — consistently among the highest price-per-square-foot buildings in the neighborhood and the first building most serious buyers reference when evaluating SoFi real estate. Understanding the floor plan differences between the two towers is the essential first step for any buyer or investor entering this market.

South Tower Floor Plans — 100 South Pointe Drive
The South Tower is the original Continuum building and the one that established the address. At 42 stories and 471 feet, it remains the taller of the two towers and carries the larger, more varied floor plan program — studios through six bedrooms across 318 units including ground-level townhomes and three extraordinary crown penthouses.
Standard Residences (1–4 BR, 1,201 – 4,973 SF) Standard South Tower floor plans range from 1,201 to 4,973 square feet across one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom configurations. All standard residences feature:
>
- 10-foot ceilings with floor-to-ceiling glass
- Private balconies with glass railings
- High-end kitchen appliances
- Direct Atlantic Ocean, Biscayne Bay, Fisher Island, or city skyline views depending on orientation and floor level
- Private elevator lobby entry
The South Tower's larger floor plan footprints — particularly in the three- and four-bedroom configurations approaching 5,000 square feet — reflect the building's design era, when luxury condo developers in South Florida were building to a more generous standard than the efficient floor plates that became common through the 2010s. For buyers who prioritize square footage per dollar in the SoFi market, the South Tower's standard collection consistently offers some of the best value.
Townhomes (Ground Level) The South Tower includes ground-level townhomes — a floor plan type nearly impossible to find in any South Beach penthouse or luxury condo building of comparable caliber. These two-story residences offer direct garden and pool access, private entries, and a scale of indoor-outdoor living that reads more like a single-family home than a condominium. For buyers who want the Continuum address and amenity package with a house-style living experience, the South Tower townhomes are the only floor plan configuration in the building that delivers it.
Studios and Larger Configurations (up to 6 BR) The South Tower's range extends in both directions — from studio floor plans at the entry level to six-bedroom configurations that represent some of the largest non-penthouse residences in the SoFi condo market. The six-bedroom layouts in the South Tower, available through both original configurations and combined units, deliver square footages in the 4,000–5,000 range that are genuinely estate-scale within a high-rise context.
South Tower Penthouses — Three Crown Residences
The South Tower at Continuum is crowned by three penthouses — each a distinct floor plan, each offering a different balance of interior scale and outdoor space:
Penthouse 1: A triplex residence spanning three floors with 7,374 interior square feet plus a private rooftop terrace. Four bedrooms. One of the most recognized floor plans in South of Fifth real estate.
Penthouse 2: The largest of the three, spanning floors 39 through 42 with 10,750 interior square feet and a rooftop terrace level featuring a private cabana and bathroom. Five bedrooms. At over 10,000 square feet, this is one of the largest condo floor plans ever delivered in Miami Beach. Interiors were designed by Max Strang, whose commission created what has been described as a tropical paradise in the heart of the city — rhythmic terraces, natural textures, and lush greenery at altitude above Government Cut and the Atlantic Ocean.
Penthouse 3: A triplex configuration with 4,661 interior square feet, offering three levels of living with elevated views of the ocean, bay, and skyline at a more accessible scale than Penthouses 1 and 2.
All three South Tower penthouses are resale only and represent three of the most architecturally significant crown residences in South of Fifth.
North Tower Floor Plans — 50 South Pointe Drive
The North Tower, completed six years after the South Tower in 2008, offers a more refined and consistently scaled floor plan program — over 15 distinct configurations across 203 residences, ranging from 1,491 to 3,030 square feet in the standard collection. The North Tower's floor plans are tighter and more efficient than the South Tower's larger footprints, but the building benefits from a newer delivery standard, more generous closet proportions, and oversized master bedrooms and baths that reflect design updates made between the two phases.
Standard Residences (1–4 BR, 1,491 – 3,030 SF) North Tower standard floor plans span one through four bedrooms from 1,491 to 3,030 square feet. All residences feature:
- Private elevator entry to individual foyers
- Oversized master bedrooms and baths
- Spacious kitchens with high-end appliances
- Imported marble, Kohler fixtures, and whirlpool tubs
- Oversized private balconies with glass railings and floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors (hurricane-rated, tinted, tempered)
- Smart screen technology in-unit
- Ultra-high-speed internet connections
Unlike the South Tower's more varied orientations, the North Tower's floor plan program is particularly well-organized around corner units with flow-through potential — offering buyers Atlantic Ocean views on the east and Downtown Miami skyline views to the west within the same residence. This is one of the North Tower's most searched and most valued floor plan characteristics.
Lofts The North Tower includes loft configurations not available in the South Tower — double-height living spaces that deliver ceiling heights meaningfully above the standard 10-foot floor, creating a residential experience closer to an urban loft aesthetic within the Continuum's resort context. These are among the most distinctive floor plans across both towers and tend to attract buyers who value architectural drama within their living space alongside the building's beach and pool amenity access.
Townhomes Like the South Tower, the North Tower also includes ground-level townhome configurations offering private entries and direct garden and pool access. The North Tower townhomes are among the most actively sought configurations in the building for buyers who specifically want the private-entry, two-story living arrangement.
Two Duplex Penthouses The North Tower is crowned by two duplex penthouses — two-story crown residences with expanded terrace proportions and elevated views across the full Continuum 12-acre compound, Government Cut, Fisher Island, and the Atlantic horizon.
The 12-Acre Compound — What Continuum's Scale Means for Floor Plan Buyers
Continuum is not a tower — it is a compound. The 12 acres of landscaped grounds surrounding both towers include 1,000 linear feet of private oceanfront beachfront with a full-service beach club, three tennis courts with a private tennis club, two oversized lagoon-style pools, an infinity-edge lap pool, four private indoor and outdoor jacuzzis, heated whirlpools and cold plunge pools, and a 15,000-square-foot Sporting Club with spa, sauna, and personal training facilities.
This ground-level amenity program directly affects the value of the lower-floor and townhome floor plans in both towers — residents who choose ground-level townhomes or lower-floor units are not trading views for lower prices and a diminished experience. They are trading altitude for direct access to the grounds, pools, and beach in a way that is simply not possible from higher floors. It is one of the few buildings in Miami Beach where a lower-floor or ground-level floor plan is an affirmative lifestyle choice rather than a compromise.
Combined Units — The Continuum's Hidden Floor Plan Inventory
A meaningful portion of Continuum's most extraordinary floor plans are not original building configurations — they are combined units created by buyers who purchased adjacent residences and merged them. Over more than two decades, a number of these combinations have been executed across both towers, producing floor plans with bedroom counts, square footages, and layout characteristics that do not appear in the building's original floor plan library. Combined units at the Continuum represent some of the most exclusive and irreplaceable floor plan inventory in South of Fifth, and several are not listed on the open MLS by owner request. Contact us directly for access to off-market combined unit availability in both towers.
View Guide — What Each Orientation Delivers
| Orientation | Primary View |
|---|---|
| East | Atlantic Ocean, direct beachfront |
| Southeast | Government Cut, Fisher Island, Atlantic Ocean |
| South | Fisher Island, Port of Miami, open water |
| West | Biscayne Bay, Downtown Miami skyline, sunset |
| North | Miami Beach cityscape, partial bay |
The southeast corner floor plans — facing both Government Cut and the open Atlantic — are consistently the most sought-after and highest-priced configurations across both towers. Fisher Island, visible directly to the southeast, is one of the wealthiest zip codes in the United States and frames the view from these residences in a way that anchors their premium regardless of market cycles.
