Welcome to Indian Creek, an ultra-exclusive private island village in Miami-Dade County, Florida, located in the 33154 zip code, just north of Miami Beach and south of Bal Harbour. Known as the “Billionaire Bunker,” this rare, members-only community is one of the most private and secure residential enclaves in the United States, accessible only via a guarded gate and bridge from North Bay Village. With a population estimated between 39 and 353 residents, Indian Creek offers an unparalleled level of privacy, security, and luxury .
The island is characterized by its sprawling waterfront estates, championship golf course, and pristine natural surroundings. Indian Creek features a very low population density and one of the most exclusive addresses in South Florida. The residents are highly educated—with an estimated 51% holding graduate degrees and 32% holding bachelor’s degrees—and the median property value ranges from $2 million to over $23 million, reflecting the ultra-luxury nature of this unique community .
The same commitment to precision craftsmanship, absolute discretion, and regulatory expertise that we bring to other premier coastal communities like Golden Beach, Florida and Bal Harbour, Florida defines our work in Indian Creek. For over 25 years, Fab’s Construction & Remodeling has been the trusted contractor for Indian Creek homeowners, providing the masterful craftsmanship, sophisticated project management, and deep understanding of this private island’s unique requirements for significant renovations and estate enhancements.
We specialize in ultra-luxury waterfront estate transformations, custom home additions, impact window and door installations for hurricane protection, and navigating the private community’s specific architectural and permitting requirements with the expertise that comes from decades of serving South Florida’s most discerning clientele.
We provide the premier renovation and construction services that Indian Creek homeowners require. Each service is hyperlinked to our detailed main service pages for more information.

Essential protection for your waterfront estate. We install premium, high-performance impact windows and doors that meet and exceed Miami-Dade County’s strictest NOA standards and Florida Building Code requirements.

Maintain and enhance your critical waterfront infrastructure. Indian Creek’s location on Biscayne Bay requires specialized marine construction expertise. We provide seawall repairs, dock construction, and bulkhead replacement services, navigating the complex permitting requirements of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and Miami-Dade County.
All exterior renovations—including changes to facade materials, colors, and architectural features—require approval from the community’s architectural review process. We manage this entire approval process, helping you select materials and designs that meet the island’s exacting standards while achieving your vision.
Secure and enhance your property with elegant perimeter solutions.
