SARASOTA, Fla., Nov. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- FirstService Residential, North America's leading residential community management company, has partnered with Seaward Development to bring an elevated residential experience to Mira Mar Sarasota, an exclusive luxury residential development that is redefining downtown Sarasota living. Through the partnership, FirstService Residential will provide full-service property management and lifestyle and amenities management for the landmark community.

"Every decision we make as a developer is intentional", said Patrick DiPinto, principal, Seaward Development. "We chose FirstService Residential because they manage more luxury condominium towers than any other company in North America. Their proven experience and commitment to service align naturally with Seaward's high standards. We believe this partnership will help deliver the exceptional services and amenities Mira Mar owners deserve. Our owners are important to us, and the decision to partner with FirstService was made with their best interests in mind."

FirstService Residential's luxury high-rise expertise is reinforced by its recent collaboration with ATELIER CX, the consulting division of Forbes Travel Guide, to establish an elevated benchmark for residential high-rise living. Together, the organizations developed elevated hospitality-focused service standards and training that have become a component of FirstService Residential's proprietary The High-Rise Standard℠.

That approach is already being recognized across FirstService Residential-managed communities. Seven communities managed by the company earned Forbes Travel Guide's inaugural VERIFIED™ Luxury Residences designation, representing more than half of the properties on the inaugural list. The designation recognizes properties committed to exceptional resident experiences and evaluates service culture, operational practices and service delivery against independently verified criteria.

"Mira Mar is poised to become one of Sarasota's most distinguished luxury residential communities," said Jake Howse, business development director at FirstService Residential. "We look forward to delivering an exceptional owner experience through a combination of hospitality-inspired service, operational excellence, and lifestyle programming that reflects the unique character of this iconic property. We're honored to partner with Seaward Development and support their vision for creating a truly extraordinary residential destination in downtown Sarasota."

Mira Mar Sarasota is a limited collection of 70 luxury residences spanning two 18-story towers on South Palm Avenue. The landmark development combines contemporary waterfront living with the restoration and preservation of the historic Mira Mar building, originally established in 1922. Residences range from approximately 3,200 to 6,000 square feet, with pricing beginning in the high $3 million range.

As the community's management partner, FirstService Residential is working closely with Seaward Development to help bring the developer's vision for Mira Mar to life, providing residents with the elevated experience expected of one of Sarasota's most prestigious new addresses. Through a combination of operational excellence, resident services, and curated lifestyle programming, the management team will support the community from its earliest stages and throughout its long-term success.

Residents of Mira Mar Sarasota will enjoy an extensive suite of luxury amenities, including a 24-hour concierge, resort-style pool with cabanas, a 70-foot lap pool, state-of-the-art fitness and wellness facilities, private dining and entertainment spaces, a golf simulator and putting green, guest suites, and the Sky Speakeasy Lounge with sweeping bay views.
