Inside Gil Dezer's Patented 'Dezervator' Coming To Bentley Residences Miami

The Dezervator at Porsche Design Tower

Real estate visionary Gil Dezer of Dezer Development, a car collector and aficionado, wanted to offer his buyers at the iconic Porsche Design Tower an amenity that no other tower in the world offered, a car elevator to deliver you and your car to your own private garage in the sky. The patented ‘Dezervator’ was born, and changed the face of ultra-luxury real estate forever. The ‘Dezervator’ is a one-of-a-kind ultra-luxury car elevator which provide residents with direct access to their apartments inside their cars, offering a seamless and unprecedented lifestyle experience.

“When we started designing the Porsche Design Tower we thought about, what does Porsche have to do with real estate, so we made the building about the car and the car lover. What happened the building became a place for privacy. It is the only building in the world that you can come and go and you do not have to see a valet or security and you have full access to your home the way you would have it in a single family home,” said Gil Dezer who pioneered the “Dezervator’ and developer of Porsche Design Tower and Bentley Residences Miami.

Now, Dezer has teamed up with Bentley Motors for the upcoming Bentley Residences Miami, which is currently under development in Sunny Isles Beach. Scheduled for completion in 2026, the Bentley Residences will boast a four-car garage for each apartment, equipped with space for electric vehicle (EV) charging points. The standout feature of these garages is the state-of-the-art 'Dezervator' lift which will effortlessly transport both cars and passengers from the road to the apartment in a single, smooth motion.

“After completing Porsche Design Tower some of the feedback that we got from our buyers is that they were seeking more in-unit parking as some had larger families, etc. So in Bentley Residences Miami each garage will have parking for 4 cars as well as in-unit electric car charging.” Explained Gil Dezer.

The Bentley Residences will feature four 'Dezervators,' a unique elevator design conceptualized by Bentley's partners at Dezer Development. These elevators can transport cars to the top floor of the 749 ft building using a hydraulic system that securely lifts the car onto a robotic shuttle system. Riding the Dezervator, while seated in your car, offers a one-of-a-kind experience, with glass-enclosed lower floors providing panoramic views of the communal areas.

Each resident will have a personal three or four-car garage within their apartment, complete with EV charging amenities. RFID stickers in residents' cars will trigger a sophisticated lighting system upon arrival, guiding them to the correct Dezervator without any manual intervention.

“Every unit features the patented Dezervator system which takes you and your car up to your apartment where your car sits right in your garage a few steps from your front door. No other building in the world offers that amenity. You walk straight from your garage into your apartment, into the foyer, which overlooks the swimming pool on every single balcony and the ocean beyond.”

Bentley Motors and Dezer Development joined forces in 2021 to bring to life the first-ever Bentley-branded residences. Spanning an impressive 61 stories, each exquisitely finished apartment will offer breathtaking bay and ocean views. Prospective residents can now take a virtual reality tour to explore the Bentley Residences firsthand, experiencing the unique journey via the 'Dezervator' lift up to the in-unit garages. The Sales Gallery, which opened in 2022 in Sunny Isles Beach, Miami, is also open for those local to the area, showcasing a full-size 6,000 sqft model unit furnished by Bentley Home.

With prices starting from $4.2 million, Bentley Residences Miami promises a lifestyle of unparalleled luxury, seamlessly blending Bentley's automotive excellence with the epitome of high-end living.
