A massive new developent is coming to International Drive - Morada Orlando, an approximately $400 million luxury residential and hospitality development bringing together world-class cuisine, architectural design and personalized hospitality services to Central Florida. Curated by internationally acclaimed Chef Alex Atala, the visionary behind São Paulo's two-Michelin-starred D.O.M., and designed by award-winning Brazilian architecture firm Gustavo Penna Arquiteto & Associados (GPA&A), the development introduces a new hospitality-driven approach to luxury development.


Morada comes as Orlando's identity continues to evolve beyond its reputation as a theme park destination. The city welcomed 76.7 million visitors in 2025, according to Visit Orlando, while continued population growth, international connectivity and an increasingly sophisticated culinary scene are reshaping the market.

Located at 11304 International Drive, Morada will feature 240 luxury residences priced from $1 million, with two-, three- and four-bedroom layouts and penthouses ranging from approximately 1,400 to 4,300 square feet, including balconies. The development will also feature a signature restaurant and approximately 6,500 square feet of publicly accessible retail and dining, creating a destination intended to engage both residents and the broader Orlando community.


"Orlando is a market people return to again and again, and we saw an opportunity to create something that gives them a deeper sense of place and permanence," said Juliana Boselli Neves, co-founder and co-CEO of Glasstone Group. "Morada Orlando brings together the ease of hospitality, the comfort of a private residence and an exceptional culinary experience. We've assembled a world-class team of partners, including acclaimed chef Alex Atala, who will curate the project's culinary experience and help bring that vision to life at an incredibly high level."



A Culinary Experience That Extends Beyond the Table

At the heart of Morada Orlando's identity is Alex Atala, whose pioneering approach to Brazilian gastronomy has earned him international acclaim. Known for championing native Brazilian and Amazonian ingredients, Atala has earned recognition among Time magazine's 100 most influential people and appeared on Netflix's Chef's Table.

As curator of Morada Orlando, Atala will bring his culinary philosophy and distinctive approach to hospitality beyond the kitchen, lending his creative vision to the project's overall concept, brand values and hospitality experience. His role will also encompass curating the concepts and menus for the development's restaurants, including its signature restaurant, which will be open to the public.


"Hospitality is nothing more than welcoming someone and making them feel they belong," said Alex Atala. "That spirit is at the heart of Brazilian culture, and it's what drew me to Morada. I want to bring more than Brazilian cuisine to Orlando; I want to share the Brazilian way of welcoming people, the warmth, the generosity and the feeling of being at ease. The French have an expression for it: à l'aise. To me, that sense of comfort and belonging is the new luxury."

Elevated Design for Every Day

Architecture is equally central to the experience. Led by award-winning Brazilian firm GPA&A, Morada is being designed around the integration of private residences, dining, wellness and shared spaces.


Rather than treating hospitality as an added amenity, Morada integrates personalized service and professional management into the residential experience from the outset. Owners will enjoy the privacy and familiarity of a second-home with the convenience of boutique hotel services, including on-site concierge, housekeeping and in-residence dining.

Planned amenities span a signature restaurant, private residence club restaurant, cocktail and wine lounges, spa and wellness facilities, resort-style pool, fitness and recreational courts, landscaped gardens and dedicated gathering spaces for families and residents.

Morada Orlando will begin accepting reservations on Nov. 11, with a sales gallery expected to open in the second quarter of 2027.


Morada is being developed in partnership with Park Square Homes and Kimaya, with sales led by NewKey Real Estate.
