The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Estero Bay Closes January With Penthouse Sale in the North Tower

Now only two penthouses remain in this luxury waterfront property.

BONITA SPRINGS, Fla ─ With peak season in full swing, The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Estero Bay has seen heightened interest from discerning buyers, recently leading to the sale of a second penthouse in the property’s North Tower, set to break ground later this year. Following the landmark sale of the South Tower's 21st-story penthouse—at the time, Lee County’s most expensive condominium sale—the new deal brings the total sales to well over $600 million. Now, only two penthouses remain.

This exclusive collection, priced from the $15 millions, introduces four masterfully designed homes, two crowning each tower. Two unique floor plans, spanning from 12,790 to 13,630 square feet, combine expansive indoor spaces with seamless outdoor living.

The first features four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and one half-bath, complemented by an awe-inspiring 7,380-square-foot terrace. The second, perched on the top level of each tower, includes four bedrooms, five bathrooms, one half-bath, and a breathtaking 6,010-square-foot outdoor veranda.

"This collection is truly unparalleled in the market. We refer to them as 'villas in the sky,' with outdoor spaces unlike any other,” said the property’s architect, Bernardo Fort-Brescia, Principal of Arquitectonica. “They evoke an estate-like feeling, with expansive terraces that rival the size of the units themselves, transforming Estero Bay into the owner's private backyard.”

Each terrace features a summer kitchen, two dining areas, a luxurious spa overlooking the water, and various spots to savor stunning sunsets.

Adding to the allure, each estate-style penthouse is elegantly appointed, as expansive layouts flooded with natural light will amplify the senses, emulating coastal tranquility. Interiors by award-winning design firm Meyer Davis offer the choice of three interior finish packages – light, medium, and dark – adding a personalized touch to match individual tastes.

Kitchens are adorned with European custom cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting, Italian porcelain countertops and backsplash, and Sub-Zero/Wolf appliances, including ample wine storage. Master bathrooms with double doors allow for sunrise to sunset vistas directly from the freestanding, center-mounted Kallista sculptured tub. A relaxing shower with a rain-head style system and handheld fixtures offers a spa-like rejuvenating experience. Each residence encompasses a generously sized den, providing versatility for a myriad of purposes, as well as private elevator entry within the residence, for exclusivity and ease.

Led by London Bay Development Group, the property will ascend 22 stories above 30 acres, hosting a total of 224 waterfront residences. Nestled beside the breathtaking beauty of the state’s oldest aquatic preserve, this extraordinary destination harmonizes natural splendor with world-class design, abundant amenities, and premier hospitality.Top of Form

Within the surrounding coastal village of Saltleaf on Estero Bay, a minute’s walk will lead residents to Saltleaf Marina, a chef-driven waterfront restaurant, and nature trails that wind along the bay.

Just around the corner, Saltleaf Golf Preserve awaits with two nature-immersed courses: "The Preserve," an 18-hole, 72-par championship course, and "The Leaf," one of Southwest Florida's only 9-hole public short courses. Both are open for public play—tee times are available at saltleafgolf.com.

As the South Tower approaches sold-out status, the North Tower and remaining penthouses offer a rare opportunity to join this flourishing community. For more information, visit the Sales Gallery at 5000 Coconut Road, Bonita Springs, or www.TheResidencesEsteroBay.com
