SOUTH POINTE TOWER RENTAL GUIDE
Is South Pointe Tower Right for You?
South Pointe Tower sits at 400 South Pointe Drive between Portofino Tower and South Pointe Park — the first high-rise on this tip, delivered in 1987 and rising about 25 occupied floors. Renters look here for a cut- and park-facing address with compact one- and two-bedroom homes rather than Continuum’s gated sand or Apogee’s large flow-through plans.
Interiors vary widely in a 1987 building, so the individual condo matters more than the address. Government Cut and the park path are at the building; Atlantic sand is a walk east.
Good Fit If
- You want an older tower beside South Pointe Park rather than a 2000s beach-grounds high-rise.
- You need a compact one- or two-bedroom rather than a large marina flow-through.
- You will inspect 1980s systems and finishes instead of assuming a recent renovation.
Compare Other Options If
- You want Portofino Tower’s greater height and larger typical layouts.
- You need Continuum’s private beach grounds and later floor plates.
- You prefer a mid-rise on Collins Avenue, such as One Ocean South Beach.
Why Rent at South Pointe Tower?
Renters choose South Pointe Tower when a park-side address with on-site tennis and pool matters more than a newer tower on the sand.
Park and Cut Address
The building faces Government Cut and the park path. Atlantic sand is reached on foot rather than through private beach grounds attached to the lease.
Everyday Plan Sizes
Current leases are two-bedroom homes between about 1,120 and 1,280 square feet — suited to a couple or small household more than a large flow-through.
Courts and Pool On Site
Tennis, a heated pool, gym, barbecue, and a dog area are here. Tenant hours and court reservations belong in the lease conversation.
A Shorter Elevator Ride
Occupied floors reach the mid-twenties, including penthouse lines — cut and park views without a 44-story ride.
Things to Consider Before Renting at South Pointe Tower
Age, room size, and uneven renovations are the real trade-offs against newer towers nearby.
1987 Interiors Differ
Kitchens, baths, windows, and cooling range from original to fully rebuilt. Treat the building year as history rather than a finish standard.
No Private Beach Grounds
The park lawn and public sand are nearby, but amenity cards come from this association alone — not from Continuum next door.
Guest Arrival on South Pointe Drive
Covered spaces are assigned, so ask how guests, rideshares, and moving trucks are handled during park events.
Renting at South Pointe Tower: What to Know
Renting at South Pointe Tower usually means a landlord lease plus association approval for the residence at 400 South Pointe Drive.
- Association package: Confirm the home as South Pointe Tower and request that association’s tenant application, fees, insurance, occupants, guests, pets, assigned covered parking, storage, and move rules.
- Condition: Put owner repair duties and appliance responsibility in the agreement — a 1987 building carries unit-by-unit variation in windows, air conditioning, and finishes.
- Amenity access: Ask in writing which pool, tennis, gym, barbecue, and dog areas a tenant may use.
- Move-in: Photograph furnishings, keys, remotes, and window hardware at possession.
Association requirements can change. Verify the current application package before signing or applying.

Continuum II North
Continuum II stands on the gated beach grounds at 50 South Pointe Drive. Weigh private sand against this cut-facing address — the open condo may decide it.
