There’s a reason the world associates Miami, Fla., with luxury. And the Estates at Acqualina, the most luxurious condominium residence on

Miami’s Sunny Isles Beach, will be one luxurious place to call home. There, breathtaking views, deluxe amenities and a feeling of exquisite pampering await you, all thanks to Trump — Jules Trump, that is.

Jules Trump and the Trump Group are the talented team developing many of Miami’s most lavish hotels, resorts and residential properties. Jules and his brother Eddie were born in South Africa and brought up in the family business, a retail store. When they moved to Florida, they realized that they could do a much better job delivering hospitality in the housing industry.

“With any business we get involved in, we try to impart our service culture to the business,” says Jules. “We’ve got a saying here: we expect what we inspect. We’re very careful to make sure standards are upheld, and that they are standards we would appreciate ourselves.”

Williams Island, the brothers’ first major development, was a project on which they were lucky enough to work with actress Sophia Loren, who would become a resident and later their spokesperson. This was an experience that truly taught the brothers what it means to raise the bar.

“We started nearly 38 years ago … she worked with us and it really helped formulate a lot of our ideas,” says Jules. “She helped us define standards that we would continue to refine over the years.”
