A Star-Studded Affair: Shakira, Marc Anthony, and More Bring Extravagance to this $70M Mansion of Dreams
The Tuscan villa-style mansion has either seven or eight bedrooms, and it spans 11,800 square feet of living area across a lot that is two acres in size and has 500 feet of canal frontage on Biscayne Bay.
This mansion is made more luxurious by the fact that Shakira, Marc Anthony, Romeo Santos, and Emilio Estefan have all stayed here as guests of Alarcón.
According to Delgado, the primary allure is the sense of exclusivity. The fact that the estate is located on a peninsula that is surrounded by water adds to the exclusive nature of Coral Gables.
“This is one of Coral Gables’ two gated communities on private streets,” Delgado told The Post about this location in Coral Gables. “The street is owned by the community.” This community behind the gates is unique. According to Delgado, his client selected it because of its seclusion.
In Miami, a home built on two acres is a rare find. Since then, Alarcón has owned the home that formerly belonged to Delgado.

A spacious kitchen with marble floors and countertops, a butler’s pantry, and a breakfast room can be found on the ground level of the 2003 model. There is a cozy family room, an elegant living room, and a cheery dining room for formal occasions.
Another perk is the ground-floor home theater, which features a panoramic screen and audio/visual equipment that is on par with that of a commercial theater.
Four bedrooms with ensuite baths, a spacious master suite, and a spa with a steam room, sauna, hot tub, massage area, and powder room are on the second level. Since it can be converted, the spa is listed as a bedroom.
An Italian-style center courtyard, coral rock-surrounded pool, half basketball court, enclosed gazebo with hurricane-impact windows and air conditioning, and private marina are on the terraced grounds.
Alarcón has hosted A-list celebrities in his gazebo, media room, and other outdoor locations, frequently with the purpose of promoting the guests’ upcoming works.
