For Luxury Buyers, Food is Fast Becoming the Ultimate Amenity

Luxury branded residences are redefining fine living by bringing world-class dining experiences right to residents' doorsteps. Renowned chefs—many with Michelin stars—are increasingly partnering with these elite properties to create exclusive culinary destinations.

From curated tasting menus to private chef experiences, these residences blend the prestige of five-star hospitality with the comforts of home. It's not just about ownership anymore—it's about savoring a lifestyle where top-tier cuisine is always on the menu.

A few key examples include:

The Residences at the St. Regis Los Cabos:  (pictured) The highly anticipated The Residences at the St. Regis Los Cabos has named Michelin-Starred Chef Carlos Gaytán as its Executive Chef. Known for his bold fusion of Mexican heritage and modern culinary artistry, Chef Gaytán will bring a refined vision to the resort’s dining experience. The menu will showcase the rich flavors of Baja California Sur, with a focus on fresh seafood, tropical fruits, and native herbs. Guests can expect standout dishes such as totoaba, octopus, oysters, and pappardelle with birria and burrata. This partnership marks a new chapter in luxury cuisine for Los Cabos. 

ORA by Casa Tua: Located at 1210 Brickell Avenue, ORA by Casa Tua is a 77-story luxury development by Fortune International Group in partnership with Casa Tua, offering 533 fully furnished residences designed for short-term rentals. As a lifestyle-driven destination, ORA by Casa Tua blends high design with exceptional hospitality and resort-style amenities. At the heart of the experience are four signature dining concepts by Casa Tua, each crafted to foster connection and community. Terra is a vibrant 24-hour market and bakery, while Uva is a refined enoteca featuring sommelier-selected wines and Mediterranean fare. Fuoco offers an intimate, fire-inspired dining experience, and Vento crowns the tower as Miami’s tallest rooftop bar and lounge, complete with a pool and sweeping views of the city and bay.

The Residences at The St. Regis Cap Cana Resort: The St. Regis Cap Cana residential resort recently announced their signature dining experience, Nina Restaurant. Led by award-winning Peruvian Chef Diego Muñoz, who brings more than 20 years of culinary expertise, the restaurant is a re-interpretation of the island’s traditions with a contemporary twist. Nina combines Latin-inspired cuisine with global flavors, showcasing Chef Muñoz’s worldly skills, while the expansive bar will offer handcrafted, balanced cocktails that infuse local Dominican ingredients with the beauty and nature of the island. Created by Chapi Chapo Design, Nina Restaurant complements the property as a whole, blending modern and sleek aesthetics with a vibrant Latin vibe. Guests and owners will be able to feel the soul of the Caribbean while dining through cuisine and immersive design. With The Residences at The St. Regis Cap Cana being fully delivered this summer, and the hotel opening this month, the property is bringing a new era of luxury to the Dominican Republic as the first and only 5-star branded real estate offering in Cap Cana- and their signature dining experience reflects just that.
