4 units in the record sit outside this grid (PH2, PH3, PH5, PH8): penthouse, townhouse or ground-level numbers, or lines seen only once or twice.

How this is drawn: a unit's floor and line come from its MLS unit number alone (5614 is floor 56, line 14). A cell exists only where the MLS has recorded a listing, a closing or a lease; a blank means no record was seen, not that no unit exists. Column widths follow each line's median recorded living area. Pre-construction towers and buildings with a thin record have no drawing.

Costa Brava rises 22 floors at 11 Island Ave in South Beach and was completed in 1972. The Miami-Dade Property Appraiser lists 214 residential units, averaging 1,454 SF of living area.

On November 2, 2026, three units were listed for sale, asking $699K to $1.4M (median ask $681/SF across 3 listings). Eight sales closed between November 2, 2025 and November 2, 2026, from $659K to $3.8M, a median $690/SF, after a median 103 days on the market. In the 12 months before that, 10 sales closed at a median $874/SF, so the median fell 21%. The MLS holds 84 closed sales here going back to 2019; among years with three or more sales, 2025 set the high at a median $874/SF. That 12-month median ranks 39th of the 83 South Beach buildings with at least three sales in the same window. Two-bedrooms made up 14 of the 18 sales in the last 24 months, at a median $1,170,000.

Two units were offered for rent at $6,200 to $7,500 a month. 16 leases were signed over the same 12 months, at a median $6,500 a month (range $3,500 to $12,500). Leases outnumbered sales 2 to 1 over that year, so renters are a large share of who lives here.

About 59% of the residences are owner-occupied according to county records.

FEMA flood zone

AE

Inside FEMA's Special Flood Hazard Area. A federally backed mortgage requires flood insurance here.

What the zone means
  • The 1% annual chance ("100-year") flood area, with a base flood elevation set.
  • Base flood elevation 9 ft (NGVD29).
  • The zone is a map line, not a premium. Ask the association for its master flood policy, and get a flood quote for the specific unit before you commit.

Milestone structural inspection

Turned 30 in 2002

The statute's first deadline for a building this age was December 31, 2024, then every 10 years.

What the deadline means
  • Based on year built 1972 (county record). The statute counts from the certificate of occupancy date, which can differ.
  • The association must give every owner the inspector's summary. Ask for it, and for the structural integrity reserve study, before you commit.

Fla. Stat. § 553.899(3) ↗ and Miami-Dade recertification ↗, read Oct 9, 2026. What the deadline means for buyers
