With spaces created for peaceful living and perfect luxury, La Clara will feature one to three-bedroom residences that range from 1,500 to over 3,000 square feet and with three luxurious penthouse floors at the top. Most residences will have a south-east facing private terrace with panoramic ocean views that allows for plenty of natural light but still offers an ideal privacy.

The masterfully imagined design for La Clara offers residents the sense of comfort that comes with a warm and welcoming home while evoking feelings of luxury and indulgent extravagance. The solid elements of the tower will be clad in white stucco while the podium levels feature Roman travertine, coral stone, and granite with bronze accents. Amenities will include a spa, an outdoor swimming pool, fitness room, club room, indoor/outdoor private dining, a bar and lounge, as well as a private tasting room.

The interiors of La Clara elegantly reflect the coastal landscape with light finishes that give the space an airy, yet sophisticated simplicity. Each carefully curated detail has its purpose and every design choice has been thoughtfully planned t propose a fresh take on contemporary Floridian modernism and high-rise coastal living. With private terraces featuring panoramic unobstructed views, comfortable living spaces designed to bring people together, and unparalleled amenities, La Clara will offer residents the perfect balance between privacy and community.
