Bal Harbour was developed by the Detroit-based Miami Beach Heights Corporation, led by Robert C. Graham with Walter O. Briggs and Carl G. Fisher, and planned by Harland Bartholomew & Associates in the 1930s. The village was incorporated in 1946.
Bal Harbour Shops, opened in 1965 by the Whitman family, sits at the center of the village. Oceanfront buildings include The Ritz-Carlton Bal Harbour, The St. Regis Bal Harbour and Oceana Bal Harbour. Haulover Park is across the inlet to the north, and Surfside and Bay Harbor Islands are next door.
What to Know Before You Buy in Bal Harbour
- Condos and co-ops: some older buildings are co-ops, which usually require board approval and can limit financing. Ask before you make an offer.
- Association health: ask for the budget, reserves, milestone inspection reports and any special assessments.
- Building rules: rental limits, pet rules and approval processes vary by building, and some towers have hotel services. Read the documents before you commit.
- Flood and wind insurance: every building here is near the water. Get quotes early.
