What Is Morada Orlando? I-Drive’s $400 Million Luxury Residences
Morada Orlando is bringing a new kind of luxury living to International Drive. The $400 million project plans 240 high-end residences with hotel-style services and restaurants curated by a two-Michelin-star chef, right in the heart of Orlando’s tourism corridor. Here’s what’s planned and what we know so far.
What Is Morada Orlando?
Morada Orlando is a planned luxury residential development at 11304 International Drive, with 240 residences and an estimated cost of about $400 million. It’s being developed by MakeSpace by Glasstone Group, in partnership with Park Square Homes and Kimaya. The building is designed by Brazilian architecture firm Gustavo Penna Arquiteto & Associados.
How Much Will Morada Orlando Residences Cost?
Residences start at $1 million. Floor plans include two-, three- and four-bedroom homes, plus penthouses, ranging from about 1,400 to 4,300 square feet including balconies. The developer is marketing them to owners as both primary residences and second homes.
Who Is Chef Alex Atala?
Alex Atala is the Brazilian chef behind D.O.M. in São Paulo, a restaurant with two Michelin stars, and he’s curating Morada Orlando’s dining. He’ll shape the concepts and menus for the project’s restaurants, including a signature restaurant open to the public. “To me, that sense of comfort and belonging is the new luxury,” Atala said.

Residents will get hotel-style services along with resort-style amenities.
- On-site concierge, housekeeping and in-residence dining

The project also plans about 6,500 square feet of retail and dining that’s open to the public.
When Will Morada Orlando Be Built?
No groundbreaking or completion date has been announced. Reservations opened November 11, 2026, and a sales gallery is expected to open in the second quarter of 2027.
What This Means
Morada Orlando is another sign that International Drive is evolving beyond hotels and attractions into a place where people want to live full time. Luxury residences with hotel-style services and Michelin-level dining are a new offering for the corridor, and they point to rising demand for high-end ownership in Orange County.
