Stella Naples, a three-story enclave located in Downtown Naples featuring just 10 luxurious residences on the top two floors and a small collection of shops and offices on the first level, is reporting strong early sales since it was launched in late November.
According the Sarah Hudgins, the project’s selling agent from William Raveis Real Estate, three of the 10 residences have already been sold.
“Our downtown location is a big selling point,” noted Hudgins, “as is the fact that every residence features a private rooftop deck, which the owner can customize to fit their specific lifestyle.”
With a 14 to 16-month construction schedule, it’s estimated the residents of Stella Naples will be able to enjoy their private rooftop decks and be within walking distance to downtown Naples by the second quarter of 2023.

Sales are now underway for London Bay’s bold, bay-front vision at Grandview at Bay Beach – Estero Island’s newest 11-story tower within walking distance to the beach and close proximity to boating and marinas.
Boasting panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico, Estero Bay and Southwest Florida’s picture-perfect sunsets, Grandview at Bay Beach offers a sought-after location that will inspire residents to immerse themselves in the natural Southwest Florida lifestyle.
Located within the gated Waterside neighborhood at Bay Beach, a short distance from Naples, Grandview’s 58 stunning residences will illustrate new heights in uncommon coastal luxury within 2,400 to 2,900 square feet. Grandview’s open-concept floor plans will feature 9’1” ceilings, three or four bedrooms, a den, up to three-and-a-half bathrooms, private elevator access and a dedicated covered space in the main garage. Six exclusive top-floor penthouses will feature 11-foot ceilings and a private two-car garage.
“Grandview presents a winning combination of world-class views, a waterfront lifestyle and resort-style amenities,” said Sales Director Michael Veliz of London Bay. “Residents will feel like they are living in paradise.”
In each thoughtfully designed residence, a wide foyer leads to a living area that includes a great room with a breezy, screened covered terrace, an elegant dining area and a gourmet island kitchen. Spacious dens afford additional comfortable space for working or relaxing.
A luxurious master suite features wide vestibules, spacious walk-in closets and a sitting area that creates the ideal spot to enjoy water views and a spa-worthy bathroom boasting dual vanities and an oversized walk-in shower.
All floorplans feature luxury features and finishes, including porcelain tile throughout living areas and bathrooms with fully tiled floors on all outdoor terraces as well as Kohler fixtures. Kitchens will include Bosch stainless-steel appliances, natural stone countertops and an open island featuring cabinetry with self-closing drawers in a variety of finishes.
Grandview’s on-site, resort-inspired amenities include a wellness lifestyle focus built into the tower’s design. Residents can make Grandview’s fitness center part of their commitment to self-care and a healthy lifestyle. With state-of-the-art strength and cardio equipment, fitness goals are within reach. The adjacent yoga studio, complete with a mirror wall, barre, and cushioned flooring for impact absorption, will provide additional relaxation space for residents. Men’s and women’s changing rooms have been elegantly envisioned with sleek stainless-steel fixtures and finishes, along with shimmering wallcovering in soothing, soft blue.
Grandview residents will also have access to the activities and amenities offered within Waterside, including a resort-style swimming pool and spa, and walking and jogging paths adjacent to a private, open space.
Grandview’s elevated waterfront living comes alive in “The EL,” its upscale, on-property amenities hub accessed by a floating staircase curving from the first-floor lobby.
A fishing pier, beach access and nearby marinas offer additional opportunities for outdoor excursions, including boating, biking, fishing charters and sunset cruises. Residents can rent a power boat, sailboat, jet ski or kayak along the Great Calusa Blueway Paddling Trail, a 190-mile canoe and kayak trail that weaves through the waters of Lee County.
Situated two miles north of Lovers Key State Park, Grandview is minutes from the beaches and fun of Fort Myers Beach and world-class shopping, dining, golf and cultural experiences of Naples.

Kalea Bay, the luxury residential high-rise community located on Vanderbilt Drive, just north of Wiggins Pass Road in North Naples, has reported the construction of its third tower has already reached the 8th floor of the 22-story structure.
“It was back in early November when construction crews began pouring the lobby floor,” said Inga Lodge, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Kalea Bay. “As of today, Tower 300 is scheduled to be completed in October 2022.”
In the past two months buyers have been especially enthralled with what the high-rise community has to offer in terms of amenities, lifestyle, location and residential opportunities.
“Although a few residences remain in the community’s completed second tower and are available for immediate occupancy, the majority of our recent sales occurred in Tower 300,” Lodge noted. “That boom, which included 23 sales in a month, pushed our third tower over the 50 percent sold mark.”
Tower 300, like its predecessors, will feature 120 luxury residences. Specifically, it’s 20 floors of residences over two floors of parking. Rooftop amenities are similar to those found in Tower 100 and 200 including a rooftop pool, open-air fitness center and a sky lounge.
“And the views of the Gulf of Mexico from the rooftop are simply incredible,” Lodge stated. “There’s nothing like it in Southwest Florida.”
Six floor plans are available in Tower 300 ranging between three-bedroom plus den/three-and-a-half-baths to four-bedroom/four-and-a-half-baths. The size of the residences ranges from 3,722 to 3,922 total square feet.
Each floor plan, following an open-concept design, allows the living, dining and kitchen areas to spill out onto an expansive lanai, creating a true outdoor living room.
Kitchens include such standard features that most consider upgrades such as luxury cabinetry, quartz countertops and a large island, as well as SubZero and Wolf appliances.
The master bedroom includes an oversized walk-in closet while the master bath has his and hers vanities, quartz countertops, luxury cabinetry, a soaking tub and a glass-enclosed shower.
Additional residential features include floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that retract across the entire living area bringing the outdoors in. The large lanais are constructed with transparent glass rails for uninterrupted views of the gulf. Smart home ready and fully equipped laundry rooms round out the list of features.
Residences in Tower 300 are currently priced from $1.5 million.
For three years now the residents of Kalea Bay have been enjoying their community’s incredible clubhouse and the many amenities that surround it.
“Our main amenity area measures 88,000 square feet and is truly the recreational and social centerpiece of the community,” said Lodge. “Receiving compliments regarding our amenities from residents, their guests and even visitors is a daily occurrence. They believe the amenities at Kalea Bay are the envy of all other communities in the Naples area.”
The main amenity area is located on the north side of the large lake at the community’s entrance. It features three individual pools, including a resort pool, an adults-only pool and a children’s pool, plus expansive pool decks, an open-air bar, a fitness center, a lakeside fire pit, kid’s game room, teen’s lounge and an event lawn.
All three pools overlook the lake and provide a multitude of recreational options. Expansive sun decks with lounge chairs and native, tropical plants separate each of the three pools for the ultimate in privacy.
