SUNSET HARBOUR SOUTH RENTAL GUIDE
Is Sunset Harbour South Right for You?
Sunset Harbour South is the southern bayfront tower of the Sunset Harbour pair at 1800 Sunset Harbour Drive. Like the North tower, you get Biscayne Bay exposure with shops, restaurants, and a grocery store close enough for many daily trips on foot.
The beach remains east of Alton. Dock and marina language appears in marketing for this area, but a boat slip is not automatic with every condo lease. Applications run through this tower’s association, not North. Finishes and parking still depend on the individual condo.
Good Fit If
- You want the South tower’s bayfront address and staffed building services.
- You value Sunset Harbour walkability for grocery and dining.
- You will confirm any dock or slip rights in writing for the lease.
Compare Other Options If
- You prefer the North tower at 1900 Sunset Harbour Drive.
- You want a smaller boutique such as Palau Sunset Harbor.
- You want Capri marina living west of Alton at Capri Marina Grande.
Why Rent at Sunset Harbour South?
Renters choose South when the available residence, view, or parking at 1800 beats whatever is open at North.
Sister Tower, Own Board
South shares the Sunset Harbour setting with North but keeps its own application path, remotes, and move rules. Use the 1800 package only, even if a friend already rents at 1900.
Bay Living With Local Errands
Restaurants, shops, and Publix sit close enough that many weekday needs do not require a car. Beach trips, airport runs, and late-night Ocean Drive still often do.
Pool and Fitness on the Bay
A heated bayfront pool, fitness, concierge, and valet are commonly listed. Confirm tenant hours and parking assignment before you sign, including whether a second space is possible.
Marina Talk Needs a Lease Check
Community dock or marina access may be available for some residents. Do not assume a slip, storage, or boat privileges come with every rental, and get any fee in writing.
Things to Consider Before Renting at Sunset Harbour South
Every building has trade-offs. Here are a few things to consider before deciding if Sunset Harbour South fits your rental priorities.
North Is Next Door, Not the Same
A friend at 1900 cannot speak for your approval timeline, pet rules, or parking remote at 1800. Keep the associations straight from the first email.
Lease Frequency Limits
Broker and listing remarks often describe a roughly six-month minimum and a limit on how often an owner may lease. Verify the current numbers for this tower before you plan a short seasonal stay.
Owner Updates Vary
Interiors, appliances, and balcony condition differ condo by condo. Walk the residence you would occupy, not a similar line on another floor or in the North tower.
Bayfront, Not Beachfront
This is a Biscayne Bay building. If you need oceanfront living, compare buildings farther east rather than stretching a bay view into beach access.
Renting at Sunset Harbour South: What to Know
Renting at Sunset Harbour South means a landlord lease plus association approval for 1800 Sunset Harbour Drive. Keep every form labeled for the South tower.
- Association approval: Obtain the current tenant package for the legal unit at 1800 Sunset Harbour Drive, including fees, insurance, screening, and minimum lease term.
- Lease term: Confirm leasing eligibility and any limits on how often a unit may be leased before you rely on a short seasonal plan.
- Move-in: Schedule elevators or move windows, and confirm deposits, keys, remotes, and parking instructions in advance.
- Pets, parking, and dock: Verify pet approval, parking assignment, and whether any community dock, marina, or boat storage rights transfer with the lease.
Association requirements can change. Verify the current application package before signing or applying.

Sunset Harbour North
North is the matching bayfront high-rise at 1900. Compare open inventory, view lines, and parking before choosing a tower name for the same neighborhood lifestyle.
Palau Sunset Harbor
Palau is a five-story bay-side boutique nearby. It fits renters who want fewer elevators and a smaller residence count than either Sunset Harbour tower.
Capri Marina Grande
Capri Marina Grande is the main Capri tower at 1445 16th Street. Compare it when marina-oriented grounds west of Alton matter more than Sunset Harbour sidewalks.
