Kalea Bay is a five-tower condominium community on Old Coast Road in North Naples, just north of Wiggins Pass Road off Vanderbilt Drive. Residences are three and four bedroom flow-through plans delivered finished, each tower carries its own rooftop pool and sky deck, and a separate amenity center serves all five buildings. Buying here means buying into a specific tower first and a community second.
That last point is the one most buyers get wrong, and it is the single most useful thing on this page. At Kalea Bay the tower is the unit of analysis. Square footage differs by tower. Price bands differ by tower. Governance differs by tower, because each building has its own condominium association with its own management office, its own phone number, and its own reserve position. A statement that begins “at Kalea Bay, residences are…” is almost always wrong by construction.
The developer describes the site as the last waterfront property in North Naples. The five towers sit on Old Coast Road at 13915, 13925, 13935, 13945 and 13955, running north to south, with a shared gate house and 24-hour manned security. The sales office is separate, at 13910 Old Coast Road.
A residence at Kalea Bay is delivered finished rather than as a shell, which is unusual at this price point in Naples and materially changes the carrying-cost math for a buyer who does not want an eighteen-month build-out. Plans are three and four bedroom, flow-through, meaning the living space runs from the west-facing Gulf side through to the east-facing preserve side rather than terminating in an interior corridor.
Twenty-two Kalea Bay residences closed in the trailing twelve months at a median price of $3,877,500, ranging from $2,700,000 to $6,900,000, with a median sale-to-list ratio of 94.80% and a median 64 days on market. Twelve residences are currently active, from $3,495,000 to $5,195,000, with a median list price of $4,287,000.
All figures below come from the Southwest Florida MLS Matrix, pulled 2026-08-24. Every statistic was computed twice by independent routes with exact agreement.
Metric | Value |
|---|---|
Closed sales | 22 |
Median sold price | $3,877,500 |
Mean sold price | $4,280,909 |
Range | $2,700,000 to $6,900,000 |
Total closed volume | $94,180,000 |
Median sale-to-list | 94.80% |
Median days on market | 64 |
One listing’s days-on-market cell was blank in the MLS record and is excluded rather than counted as zero, so the days-on-market figure runs on 33 of 34 rows.

100 | 13915 Old Coast Rd | 5 | 4 | $3,300,000 | $4,584,500 |
200 | 13925 Old Coast Rd | 8 | 2 | $4,550,000 | $4,695,000 |

400 | 13945 Old Coast Rd | 6 | 1 | $4,052,500 | $3,950,000 |
500 | 13955 Old Coast Rd | 0 | 3 | not applicable | $4,200,000 |
Tower 500 shows zero closed sales against three active listings, and almost every page you will read treats those three as resales. They are not, and they cannot be.
Tower 500 has no certificate of occupancy. No unit has ever closed. No owner exists. Therefore no resale is possible. The three active listings are developer inventory placed in the MLS, or pre-closing contract assignments, and those are materially different things to buy than a resale.
We verified the no-certificate-of-occupancy finding five independent ways: Collier County counts 480 of the PUD’s 600 approved units as built, which is exactly four towers of 120; no “Tower 500 Kalea Bay Unit” instrument exists in the county’s official records; no Tower 500 declaration of condominium has been recorded; no Tower 500 condominium association appears as a recorded party to any conveyance; and the tower’s own domain is an unbuilt placeholder while Towers 100 through 400 all run live association sites.
For Towers 100 through 400 the MLS figures above are genuine resale data. For the community as a whole, they are not a complete picture of sales, because MLS measures resale and not developer inventory, and developer sales are frequently never listed at all.
⛔ Neither “sold out” nor “not sold out” can be stated for any tower from MLS data. This is the kind of distinction that costs money when it is missed. A buyer told a tower is “sold out” walks away from a building that has inventory; a seller told the same thing prices against scarcity that is not there.
The developer’s sales record is traceable through press and first-party announcements, and it is a genuinely instructive curve:
Date | Milestone |
|---|---|
2024-01-02 | Reservations open |
Mid-January 2024 | $175 million reserved in roughly two weeks |
2024-02-23 | 40 reservations, about $200 million |
2024-04-18 | More than $240 million |
2025-04-21 | $290 million, “more than half sold” of 120 units |
2025-07-17 | 66 of 120 units, more than $330 million |
Roughly 69% of the dollar volume was booked in the first eight weeks, after which the pace slowed sharply. The last independently reported figure is from July 2025; the record has been quiet since, and the developer’s own construction blog has slowed from about 25 posts a year to one.
⚠️ The 66-of-120 figure is attributed to the developer rather than independently verified, and no sellout has ever been reported.
Kalea Bay resales ran a 94.80% median sale-to-list ratio over the last twelve months, which means the number on the listing sheet is not the number that closes, and the difference is negotiated. McGreevy and Comisar are Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008 and the #1 team in Southwest Florida since 2012.

Kalea Bay is developed by Soave Real Estate, a subsidiary of Soave Enterprises, a privately held Detroit company. The community was entitled and built out in sequence from 2017, one tower at a time, with each tower’s condominium association incorporated and its declaration recorded as the building approached completion. That paper trail is the most reliable construction chronology available for this community, and it comes from two unrelated public agencies.
Each tower leaves two dated public artifacts: an association incorporation on file with the Florida Division of Corporations, and a Declaration of Condominium recorded with the Collier County Clerk. They corroborate each other on every tower.
Tower | Association incorporated | Declaration recorded | Instrument | Book / Page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
100 | 2017 | 11/16/2017 |
| OR 5449 / 2028 |

The master instrument, the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants, Conditions, Reservations, and Easements for Kalea Bay, is instrument 5471687 at OR 5449 / 1939, recorded 11/16/2017, the same day as the Tower 100 declaration.
Recording a declaration is a strong proxy for substantial completion, because units cannot be conveyed before it happens. It is not a certificate of occupancy. A completion year is supportable for each tower; a completion month is not, and you will find pages elsewhere confidently stating months that no public record supports.
Kalea Bay’s developer maintains a dated construction blog running thirteen pages back. Read as a sequence it produces a five-tower chronology that no competing page reproduces:

Kalea Bay is five high-rise towers on a single assembled waterfront parcel, each 120 residential units, sharing one amenity center and one gated entry. There are no sub-villages, no single-family product, and no separate neighborhoods inside the community. The master plan is unusually simple for a Tier 2 community, and that simplicity is why the tower, not the village, is the unit of analysis here.
Tower | Address | Residential units |
|---|---|---|
100 | 13915 Old Coast Rd | 120 |
200 | 13925 Old Coast Rd | 120 |
300 | 13935 Old Coast Rd | 120 residential + 2 garage |
400 | 13945 Old Coast Rd | 120 residential + 2 garage |
500 | 13955 Old Coast Rd | not published |
Towers 300 and 400 carved out two separate Garage Units each, which Towers 100 and 200 did not. That is a structural difference recorded in the declarations, not a marketing distinction.
Kalea Bay is governed in three tiers, and they are not three versions of the same thing. Your tower’s condominium association and the master property owners association are Florida not-for-profit corporations. The Club at Kalea Bay is a Michigan for-profit limited liability company. An estoppel certificate can be required from all three entities when a residence changes hands.
That last sentence is not our characterization. It is what the tower associations themselves publish in their own estoppel notices, each naming “the other two entities” as the Kalea Bay Property Owners Association and The Club at Kalea Bay.

A Florida not-for-profit condominium association operates under Chapter 718: it carries a budget you can read, reserves it must fund or formally waive, records you have a statutory right to access, and eventual turnover to a board the owners elect. Tower 400’s association has already turned over, and you can see it in the public record, because its president’s own address is a unit inside the building.
A Michigan for-profit LLC owned by a developer affiliate operates under none of that. The recorded Tower 400 Declaration states it plainly at section 2.6: the Club Owner “is the owner of the Club” and “owns the recreational amenities facilities located within Kalea Bay.”
So the amenity center is not an owner-controlled asset. That is a materially different cost and control posture from association dues, and it is the honest frame for the cost-of-ownership question, which our research shows is the single most-asked commercial question about this community.
⚠️ Scope this exactly. What is verified: the entity type, state of organization, filing date, registered address, and that the Club Owner owns the amenity facilities. What is not established and is not claimed here: whether Club membership is mandatory for owners, the fee schedule, any transfer or turnover provision, or whether the LLC’s ownership has since changed.
A Kalea Bay owner is billed by three separate entities: their tower’s condominium association, the master Kalea Bay Property Owners Association, and The Club at Kalea Bay. Club membership is mandatory for residential owners. For a Tower 400 Type A residence in 2025 the three layers total $42,165.88 per year, and a buyer additionally pays a one-time $50,000 nonrefundable transfer fee at closing. There is no CDD or special taxing district.
Every figure below is sourced. Where something is not published, it says so in those words.
Layer | Entity | Amount (2025) | Period | Covers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Tower condominium assessment, Type A | Tower 400 association | $8,369.75 | Quarterly | Building operations, insurance, reserves, staff, rooftop amenity |
Tower condominium assessment, Types B and C | Tower 400 association | $8,529.92 | Quarterly | As above |
Garage unit assessment | Tower 400 association | $1,807.53 | Quarterly | Garage unit only |
Master association | Kalea Bay Property Owners Association, Inc. | $295.87 | Quarterly | Gate house, shared grounds, community-wide items |
Club dues, mandatory | The Club at Kalea Bay L.L.C. | $7,503.40 plus sales tax | Annual | Amenity center, pools, restaurants, fitness, racket sports |
Club transfer fee, buyer pays | The Club at Kalea Bay L.L.C. | $50,000 | One time at purchase, nonrefundable | Membership transfer |
Tenant designation fee | The Club at Kalea Bay L.L.C. | $1,000 | Per tenant designation | Leasing administration |
CDD or special district | None | $0 | Not applicable | Kalea Bay has no CDD |
Source: the statutory DBPR Form CO 6000-4 Frequently Asked Questions sheet, published in Tower 400’s own public sales packet dated 5/2025, together with the association’s published assessment schedule. Garage units are exempt from Club membership. There is no separate initiation fee beyond the transfer fee.
Component | Annual |
|---|---|
Tower 400 Type A assessment, $8,369.75 x 4 | $33,479.00 |
Master POA, $295.87 x 4 | $1,183.48 |
Club dues, mandatory | $7,503.40 |
Total recurring | $42,165.88 |
Plus $50,000 once, at purchase. A buyer budgeting for this residence needs both numbers, and most published sources give neither.
Search this community’s fees and you will repeatedly find a “club fee of $26,000 to $34,000.” That is not the club fee. It is the condominium assessment annualized. The actual mandatory Club dues are $7,503.40.
Here is the mechanism. Syndicated listing feeds carry an HOA fee field containing an annual figure, in one live example 32971, sitting immediately beside an agent remark about a “mandatory annual club fee.” Downstream sites read the number next to the words and publish the condominium assessment as the club fee. The error propagates because every site copies the same feed, which is also why the wrong figure appears everywhere at once and why no source cites anything.
The error matters in both directions. A buyer told the club costs $34,000 overestimates the amenity cost by more than four times and may walk from a building they could afford. A buyer who treats $34,000 as the total underestimates the real recurring burden by roughly $8,700 and misses the transfer fee entirely.
Buried in the Club membership agreement inside the Tower 400 sales packet, version dated 5/21/2025, is a clause stating the $50,000 transfer fee applies “unless I am an initial purchaser.”
⇒ A buyer purchasing developer inventory does not pay the $50,000. A buyer purchasing a resale does. On an otherwise comparable residence that is a $50,000 swing, and it is published nowhere outside a PDF inside a sales packet. It belongs in any honest comparison between developer inventory and resale, and it is the single largest number most Kalea Bay buyers will never be told.
An amendment to Tower 100’s Declaration of Condominium, recorded 29 October 2024, rewrote Article 12.1 to make the Club Owner a second, co-equal holder of the right of first refusal alongside the association. The terms:
⚠️ Two of the four 2025 sales packets still carry pre-amendment boilerplate on right of first refusal despite sharing a version date with the others. If you are relying on a sales packet for this, you may be reading superseded terms. The recorded amendment governs.
The same amendment liberalized Tower 100’s pet rule to three household pets, dogs, cats or a combination, while holding a hard line that tenants and guests may not keep pets at all and no pet-sitting is permitted. ⛔ This is Tower 100 only and does not generalize to the other four towers.
The Kalea Bay Property Owners Association’s own financial statement for June 2026 shows operations $7,242.80 in deficit year to date, held level by a developer subsidy of $111,913.62.
That subsidy exists because the developer still controls unsold inventory and is obligated to fund the gap. It is not permanent. When Tower 500 completes and the developer exits, the gap has to be closed by owners, by cutting services, or by an assessment increase. No published document says which.
This is the most consequential number on this page for a long-term owner, and we have found it published nowhere else.
Item | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Purchase application fee | $150, nonrefundable | Identical across all four towers |
Application decision window | 30 days | Two reference letters required |
POA estoppel revenue | $500/month, $4,000 YTD 2026 | From the POA’s own financials |
Vehicle cap | 2 per unit | Golf carts and Mokes count toward the cap |
Gatehouse | Leased at $500/month | POA financials |
The master POA assessment was $309.22 quarterly in 2023 and is $295.87 in 2025, a decrease of roughly 4.3%. That is unusual in Southwest Florida in this period and worth knowing when comparing communities.
Per Tower 200’s published owner FAQ, gas, water, and basic cable with internet are included in the tower assessment. Budget comparisons against communities where those are separate utilities are not like-for-like.
Tower 200 levied a $2,400 per unit special assessment in December 2022, following Hurricane Ian. No other special assessment surfaced for any tower.
A Kalea Bay resale requires estoppel certificates from three entities: the tower association, the master POA, and the Club. There is also a dual right of first refusal, held by the tower association and separately by the Club for Towers 200, 300 and 400. Tower 100’s status is stated inconsistently in the source document and should be confirmed per transaction.
This is the most common cause of closing delay in this community, and it is entirely avoidable with early document ordering.
The 2025 figures above are Tower 400’s. Per-tower assessment schedules for Towers 100, 200, 300 and 500 are not published and must be obtained by estoppel or from the seller. The recorded Club instrument should be pulled from the Collier Clerk under document type RESTR (Restrictions), not DECL.
Every Kalea Bay tower holds 120 residences. Towers 100 through 400 are complete and occupied, verified through incorporated associations, operating management offices with published hours, and published estoppel procedures. Tower 500 is the final tower and was in finishing phases as of the developer’s construction post dated 2026-04-28.
Tower | Status | Verification route |
|---|---|---|
100 | Complete, occupied | Association |
200 | Complete, occupied | Association |
300 | Complete, occupied | Association |
400 | Complete, occupied | Association |
500 | Under construction, finishing | Developer construction post 2026-04-28; association |
Worth explaining, because it tells you something about how to verify anything at Kalea Bay. Every attempt to confirm Tower 400’s completion by looking for a developer statement failed, and it was always going to fail: a developer’s marketing site has no reason to ever write “Tower 400 is complete.” Once a building sells out it simply stops being marketed and disappears from the sales narrative.
What a completed Florida condominium does leave behind is governance. An incorporated association. A management office with published hours. A statutory estoppel procedure. A resident portal. Eventually a board with owners on it. All of that is public, and none of it appears on any page currently ranking for this community.
Three surfaces give three different answers. The developer’s website described Tower 500 in final finishing stages in April 2026. The developer’s own Instagram carries a caption saying the final tower opens September 2027. A third-party source says September 2026.
When the developer’s own social account contradicts the developer’s own website, no completion date is publishable. A social caption is first-party about the account, not necessarily current about the project, and it carries no revision history, so it cannot be dated the way a blog post can. If a completion date matters to your decision, ask the sales office directly and get it in writing.
The same Kalea Bay residence can be honestly described as 3,290 square feet, 3,983 square feet, or “approximately 3,200 square feet,” and all three are correct. They are three different legal and marketing bases measuring three different things. Any Kalea Bay square-footage figure quoted without naming its basis is not usable, and this is the single most common factual error made about this community.
Basis | Tower 400 example | Where it comes from | Includes lanai? |
|---|---|---|---|
Recorded declaration, Chapter 718 Unit boundary | 3,238 / 3,290 / 3,290 | Exhibit “C”, OR 6335 PG 1566 | No |
Developer “Total Sq. Ft.” | 3,723 to 3,922 | Developer tower page | Yes |
Developer homepage, no basis stated | approximately 3,200 | Developer homepage | No, it is the declaration figure rounded |
The lanai runs 582 to 693 square feet and is a Limited Common Element under the recorded declaration, not part of the Unit. That single legal fact explains the entire apparent discrepancy.
Towers 300 and 400 apportion ownership by unit square footage, so their declarations carry a typed Exhibit “C” schedule.
Unit type | Count | Tower 300 sq ft | Tower 400 sq ft | Share each |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Residential A and A Reversed | 40 | 3,226 | 3,238 | 0.82% |
Residential B and B Reversed | 40 | 3,290 | 3,290 | 0.84% |
Residential C and C Reversed | 40 | 3,290 | 3,290 | 0.84% |
Garage G and G Reversed | 2 | 604 | 604 | 0.15% |
Total | 122 | 393,448 | 393,928 | 100.00% |
Every figure was re-derived by independent arithmetic rather than trusted from a scan: count times per-unit area reproduces each printed type total, the four type totals sum to the printed grand total, and each printed percentage reproduces from the ratio. The two declarations differ on exactly one figure, the A unit, by 12 square feet, and their grand totals differ by 480, which is 40 times 12 exactly.
Towers 100 and 200 apportion ownership as “a 1/120 undivided ownership share” equally across all units, so their declarations never had to state a unit area and do not. The absence is by construction, not by oversight.
The MLS supplies what the declarations do not: Tower 100 living area is 3,280 flat, and Tower 200 runs 3,223 to 3,287.
Tower | MLS living area |
|---|---|
100 | 3,280 (flat) |
200 | 3,223 to 3,287 |
300 | 3,226 to 3,290 |
400 | 3,238 to 3,290 |
500 | 3,290 to 3,453 |
Across all 34 listings in all five towers, MLS living area runs 3,223 to 3,453. MLS living area reproduces the recorded Exhibit “C” figures to the square foot on Towers 300 and 400, which is an agent-entered field agreeing with a recorded legal instrument from two entirely unrelated systems.
The Club at Kalea Bay is the community’s separate amenity center, and it is owned by The Club at Kalea Bay L.L.C., a Michigan for-profit limited liability company registered in Florida as a foreign LLC and headquartered at Soave Enterprises’ Detroit offices. It is not a Florida not-for-profit association and it is not owned by the residents.
From the developer’s own amenity list: a clubhouse, three pools, two restaurants, two open-air bars, a salon, a teen lounge and kids’ game room, tennis and pickleball courts, a wellness center, outdoor fire pits, and guest cottages. Each tower additionally carries its own rooftop terrace with an open-air fitness center, sky lounge, and negative-edge pool.

Both are current, both are the operators’ own words, and they differ by 12,000 square feet. The likely reconciliation is a gross-versus-conditioned or a phased-expansion difference, but that is a hypothesis and not a measurement. We publish neither as fact. The place to close it is the Master Declaration at OR 5449 / 1939.
There is no golf course at Kalea Bay, no golf membership, and no golf listed among the community’s amenities at any tier. This is one of the most-searched questions about the community and, as far as we can find, no other page answers it directly.
We measured it rather than assumed it. A site search of the developer’s own domain returns one result for “golf,” a 2016 blog post about Naples as a city whose single use of the word describes the city’s courses, not the community’s. Two positive controls run the same way returned the amenities page correctly, so the instrument was working.
Kinsale Golf Club sits on 170 acres immediately east of Kalea Bay, at Vanderbilt Drive and Wiggins Pass Road. It is a Soave development, the same developer, and like The Club at Kalea Bay it is organized as a Michigan limited liability company rather than a Florida member association. The course is a Gil Hanse design and opened in autumn 2024. Membership is capped at approximately 250 members and is application-only.
🔑 Nothing in any published Kinsale or Kalea Bay material grants a Kalea Bay owner any residency right, priority, or discounted access to Kinsale. They share a developer and a corner, not a membership.
This is worth stating precisely because the geography invites the wrong assumption. A buyer who sees a Gil Hanse course across the road from a community by the same developer will reasonably infer a relationship. There is no published one. If Kinsale matters to you, treat it as a separate club with its own application, its own cost, and its own waitlist, and get that in writing before it factors into your purchase.
⚠️ Reported Kinsale initiation figures and “already sold out” claims circulate in golf discussion forums. We have not verified any of them and are not repeating them as fact.
📄 We traced the Kinsale ownership chain in full, including the corporate filings that tie it to the same developer: Kinsale Golf Club in Naples is a Soave development, and what that means for nearby homes.
North Naples has substantial golf, and several of the communities in the comparables section are built around it. Kalea Bay is not, and a golf-first buyer is probably shopping the wrong community. Saying so costs us nothing and saves you a season.
Kalea Bay has two restaurants, the Driftwood Cafe and Salt and Oak, and both sit at The Club rather than inside any tower. That placement matters more than it first sounds, because dining access follows Club membership rather than unit ownership, and Club membership is mandatory for every owner at $7,503.40 per year. Both venues are open, and the Club publishes separate season and summer hours for each.
The Driftwood Cafe is the casual venue. The developer describes members and guests dining there for breakfast and lunch, with specialty coffee, poolside dining, a sundries shop, ice cream, specialty chocolates, and wifi. It is described in the present tense.
Salt and Oak is described as the main club restaurant, relaxed and elegant, with a private dining and banquet room, a wine tasting room, a meeting room and outdoor event area, indoor and outdoor seating, poolside dining and bar, and outdoor fire pits.
⚠️ One honest caveat. The developer writes Driftwood in the present tense and writes Salt and Oak’s feature list in the future tense. We are not going to tell you Salt and Oak is open when the only source available describes what it “will include.” Both are the community’s two restaurants, which is true on either reading. Confirm current operating status with the Club directly at (239) 307-1890.
Kalea Bay’s racket facility holds four lit Har-Tru tennis courts and eight lit pickleball courts at its own address, 13958 Old Coast Road, separate from the main amenity center. The Wellness Center runs roughly 14,000 square feet with Techno Gym equipment, and each of the five towers additionally carries its own rooftop fitness center.
Facility | Detail |
|---|---|
Tennis | 4 courts, Har-Tru, lit |
Pickleball | 8 courts, lit |
Location | 13958 Old Coast Rd, separate address from the Club |
Staff | Tennis Director and teaching professionals |
Pro shop | Published season and summer hours |
Programming is real rather than nominal: a weekly clinic and round-robin grid, junior instruction through an Academy and a Little Lobbers program, and named pickleball formats including Three & Me, Bam Bam, and Fit & Fab.
Three different numbers circulate, and two of them are defensible:
Figure | What it actually is |
|---|---|
14,000 sq ft, Techno Gym | The Wellness Center as announced in 2020 and as built. Use this one. |
15,000 sq ft | The figure published on all four tower association sites |
⛔ 1,700 sq ft, Cybex | The pre-expansion gym. Stale copy still live on the Club’s own amenities page. Do not use it. |
The Club’s own site currently serves the stale 1,700 square foot figure alongside the current facility. That is a caution about the source, not about the gym.
The Club’s three pools are a resort pool, an adults-only pool, and a children’s pool, with two open-air bars, a lakeside fire pit and an event lawn. They overlook the lake, not the bay, which is a distinction the marketing photography does not make obvious.
⚠️ No source states that the Club pools are heated. The tower rooftop pools are gas heated; the Club pools are not described either way, and we will not assume. Cabanas appear in no published material and should not be expected.
Twelve guest cottages, two types, ground floor, with an ADA-accessible room available. Booking opens an eight-month window, is member-only, and carries a 14-day cancellation policy extending to 60 days around holidays. The most recent published rate card runs $140 to $550 per night plus 12% tax.
⚠️ That rate card dates to 2020 to 2021 and is the newest published. Current rates are not available and should be confirmed with the Club.
Hurricane Ian’s still water on this stretch of shoreline ran roughly 1.7 to 2.8 feet above the mapped base flood elevation. The nearest USGS sensor, at Delnor-Wiggins Pass 1.9 miles away, recorded a 10.24 foot storm tide with 9.73 feet of inundation, and the nearest coastal high water marks ran 10.70 to 11.77 feet NAVD88 against a mapped BFE of 9.0 feet. Hurricane Milton’s nearest 2024 high water mark was substantially lower at 6.80 feet.
That is the honest framing for a coastal high-rise buyer: the design standard was exceeded on this shoreline within living memory, which is precisely why the building type matters here.
A high-rise’s exposure is not a single-family home’s. Residences begin well above grade; the vulnerable elements are the ground-floor lobby, the garage level, mechanical and electrical equipment, elevators, and the amenity deck. Flood zone designations describe the site, not your unit’s floor.
The only account of damage at Kalea Bay itself comes from the developer’s October 2022 post, which characterizes the majority of damage as landscape. ⚠️ We flag that as a marketing source rather than an independent assessment, and we have not found an independent one. Tower 200’s $2,400 per unit special assessment in December 2022 is the closest thing to a measured signal.
The glazing contractor for Towers 100 and 200 confirms impact-rated windows, sliding doors, all-glass entries and glass guardrails throughout. Buildings constructed 2017 and later meet current Florida high-rise code.
⚠️ Generator capacity and what loads it covers are UNKNOWN, and we will not publish a generator claim without the association documents. Design wind speed sources split between 160 and 170 mph and is unresolved.
Kalea Bay’s geocoded addresses return Zone AE with a base flood elevation of 9.0 feet NAVD88, FIRM panel 12021C0187J effective 2024-02-08. But the site is genuinely mixed: VE with BFE 11 on the Gulf side, AE bands at 9, 10 and 11 feet, and interior Zone X pockets. ⛔ Never state a single flood zone for Kalea Bay. Ask which zone applies to the specific tower and elevation you are buying.
1. The current zones are not what the 2024 paper FIRM shows. An effective Letter of Map Revision, FEMA case 25-04-1234P, effective 2025-09-02, covers this site and is the source citation on the current zone polygons. Anyone reading the February 2024 panel is reading superseded geometry.
2. A new countywide FIRM is in its appeal period right now. The preliminary maps were released 2025-03-20, the 90-day appeal window opened 2026-08-19, and the new FIRM is targeted for summer 2027. Owners and buyers have a live, time-limited opportunity to review and appeal their mapped zone before it becomes effective. This is the single most actionable item on this page and it expires.
Under Collier County floodplain regulation, substantial improvement or substantial damage exceeding 50% of a structure’s market value triggers a requirement to bring the structure into compliance with current flood standards. For a condominium the rule applies at the structure level, which makes it an association-level exposure rather than an individual owner’s renovation problem, and it is a question for the association’s reserve and insurance posture rather than for your contractor.
In ZIP 34110, Hurricane Ian produced 505 NFIP claims totaling $38.4 million paid, and 118 of those claims, 23%, were on properties rated Zone X. Nearly a quarter of paid flood claims in this ZIP came from outside the mapped high-risk zone. Treat a Zone X designation as a pricing input, never as an assurance.
Kalea Bay is in Collier County evacuation Zone A, the first zone ordered out. Verified at three separate points on the site against the Florida Division of Emergency Management statewide layer.
Every Kalea Bay tower is inside Collier County’s official 3-mile saltwater milestone buffer, and the county’s own registry records each tower’s milestone due date as not yet due. Tower 100 is due 2043, Tower 200 2046, Tower 300 2048, and Tower 400 2049. Tower 500 does not appear, consistent with a building that has not yet been certified for occupancy.
Tower | Milestone inspection due | Status |
|---|---|---|
100 | 2043 | Not due |
200 | 2046 | Not due |
300 | 2048 | Not due |
400 | 2049 | Not due |
500 | Not listed | Pre-certificate of occupancy |
Florida Statute 553.899 was amended in 2023 and the milestone threshold is now 30 years statewide, with a 25-year trigger surviving only as a local option under 553.899(3)(b) for buildings within 3 miles of the coast. Collier County has exercised that local option, and Kalea Bay sits inside the county’s mapped saltwater buffer. Many summaries of this law still describe an automatic coastal 25-year rule; that is out of date.
Section 718.112(2)(g) requires a SIRS within ten years of the creation of the condominium. On that basis Tower 100’s falls due around 2027, Tower 200 around 2030, Tower 300 around 2032, and Tower 400 around 2034.
⚠️ One thing we could not establish: whether Towers 100 and 200 came under unit-owner control before 1 July 2022. If they did, the statute’s hard deadlines apply instead and those studies were already owed. That is a direct question for each association and a genuine due-diligence item.
For context on why this matters locally, nearby Naples Walk has been recorded delinquent on its milestone obligation since 2023. Kalea Bay’s towers are, by the county’s own registry, comfortably ahead of the requirement.
The most important insurance fact about Kalea Bay is not a premium number, it is a divergence. From Citizens Property Insurance’s rate filing dated 2025-12-10, Collier County unit-owner policies are getting cheaper while association master policies are getting more expensive.
Line | Policies | Average premium | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
HO-6 unit owner, multiperil | 529 | $1,959 | down 9.7% to $1,770 |
HW-6 unit owner, wind only | 595 | $2,164 | up 7.3% to $2,323 |
Commercial Residential, association master | not published | not published | up 12.9% overall, 14.1% wind only |
The association line’s uncapped indication was +26.6%, meaning the filed increase is capped and the underlying pressure is roughly double what is being charged.
⇒ A buyer looking only at their own HO-6 quote will see a falling number while the cost embedded in their assessment rises. The association premium is the one that shows up in your dues, and it is the one moving against you. Ask for the association’s insurance renewal history, not just your own quote.
Citizens acknowledges that its HO-6 wind mitigation credits still run off a 2002 study that does not recognize the 2010 building code changes. A tower built to post-2010 standards, as all of Kalea Bay’s are, is therefore structurally under-credited for its actual hardening. That is an argument to make with a private carrier rather than to accept from the residual market.
Unincorporated Collier County holds Community Rating System Class 5, effective 2015-10-01, producing a 25% NFIP discount inside the special flood hazard area and 10% outside it. That is a genuinely strong rating and it applies automatically.
All five Kalea Bay towers are zoned to Naples Park Elementary (PK to 5), North Naples Middle (6 to 8), and Aubrey Rogers High (9 to 12) for the 2026 to 2027 school year. All three carry a Florida Department of Education grade of A, and each has held an A in every year of its existence.
Level | School | FLDOE grade |
|---|---|---|
Elementary | Naples Park Elementary | A |
Middle | North Naples Middle | A |
High | Aubrey Rogers High | A |
Assignments were read from the Collier County Public Schools zoning tool at the individual unit-address level for all five towers, not inferred from a neighborhood boundary.
The high school assignment changed from Gulf Coast to Aubrey Rogers effective the 2023 to 2024 school year, approved by the School Board on 10 January 2023. Elementary and middle assignments have been stable across six map years. Anyone relying on pre-2023 information will have the wrong high school.
⚠️ Attendance zones change. Confirm with the district before making a decision that depends on a specific school.
Collier County Public Schools earned its ninth consecutive A district grade and ranks 6th of Florida’s 67 districts.
Community School of Naples, Seacrest Country Day School, Royal Palm Academy, and St. John Neumann Catholic High School are the established independent options within a reasonable drive.
Kalea Bay has two acute-care hospitals with 24-hour emergency departments within about four road miles, which is unusually good coverage for a coastal residential address. A concierge practice sits closer still, at 3.1 miles. The distances below are road miles from Old Coast Road rather than straight-line figures, and every one of these destinations is reached inland, so none of them depends on a bridge or a barrier-island crossing.
Facility | Address | Distance |
|---|---|---|
NCH North Naples Hospital | 11190 Health Park Blvd | 3.9 mi |
Physicians Regional North | 1285 Creekside Blvd E | 4.0 mi |
NCH Concierge, Coventry Square | 870 111th Ave N | 3.1 mi |
Concierge medicine is closer than either hospital. The NCH concierge practice at Coventry Square is 3.1 miles and roughly seven minutes, on the same Bluebill corridor residents use to reach the beach. Concierge pricing is not published.
⚠️ One limitation worth stating rather than glossing: NCH’s own urgent and immediate care pages state they currently accept only HMO plans with an assigned NCH primary care provider. Do not assume walk-in urgent care accepts any insurance.
Distances below are road miles measured from Old Coast Road, which is the durable figure, because drive times in Southwest Florida swing hard between season and summer and any single number would be wrong for half the year. Treat every time estimate as off-peak. The pattern worth reading is that daily errands sit inside about four miles while downtown Naples does not.
Destination | Distance |
|---|---|
Publix | 2.9 mi |
NCH Concierge, Coventry Square | 3.1 mi |
Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park | 3.1 mi |
Trader Joe’s | 3.3 mi |
NCH North Naples Hospital | 3.9 mi |
Physicians Regional North | 4.0 mi |
Whole Foods | 4.3 mi |
Mercato | 4.4 mi |
Seed to Table | 6.1 mi |
Waterside Shops | 7.0 mi |
Downtown Naples and 5th Avenue South | 13.1 mi |
RSW, Southwest Florida International Airport | 26.1 mi |
Read this honestly: 5th Avenue South is 13 miles away, so Kalea Bay is not a downtown-Naples-adjacent address. Mercato at 4.4 miles and Waterside at 7.0 are the real daily anchors. Anyone selling you this location on 5th Avenue proximity is overstating it.
Kalea Bay is waterfront but not beachfront. Beach access is an optional, separately purchased beach membership giving access to a private, staffed beach club at Moraya Bay / North Beach, reached by a Club-run shuttle via the Bluebill Avenue and Gulf Shore Drive access. It is not included in your dues and it is not a walk to the sand.
Leg | Schedule |
|---|---|
Porte-Cochere departures | 9:45am, then hourly at :45, last at 3:45pm |
Tower 100 departures | 10:00am, then hourly on the hour, last at 4:00pm |
Returns | :15 past the hour, final return 5:45pm |
Beach closes | 6:00pm |
Complimentary chaises, towels and umbrellas, with food service on the sand from 11am to 5pm and last beverage service at 5:30pm. Coolers are not permitted. Moraya Bay’s parking and clubhouse are excluded from the arrangement.
⚠️ This is a purchase, not an entitlement. First-party material describes residents as having “the option to purchase a beach membership.” Any page telling you Kalea Bay includes beach club access is overstating it. Confirm current pricing directly with the Club, which does not publish it.
The state park sits about 1.2 miles from Kalea Bay in a straight line, but Wiggins Pass is an open inlet with no pedestrian crossing. The actual trip is a 3.1 mile drive south to Bluebill Avenue and west over the bridge. This is an easy and consequential thing to get wrong.
Park fees: $6 per vehicle, $4 single occupant, $2 pedestrian, open 8am to sundown, and the park closes to vehicles when parking reaches capacity, which happens regularly in season.
Collier County beach parking is $8 per day without a permit, but part-time owners qualify for the county parking permit with a deed or closing papers and a driver’s license from any state. Owners who spend part of the year here frequently do not know this and pay daily rates for years.
Six public beach accesses sit within roughly six miles.
Kalea Bay is built inside the Cocohatchee Bay PUD, Ordinance 2000-88, approved 12 December 2000: 532 acres, 600 approved units, 1.13 units per acre, and 181.5 acres of preserve, with estimated buildout in 2028. The community’s density is genuinely low for its unit count because more than a third of the PUD is preserve.
PUD fact | Value |
|---|---|
Ordinance | 2000-88, approved 12/12/2000 |
Acreage | 532.00 |
Approved units | 600 |
Density | 1.13 units per acre |
Preserve acreage | 181.50 |
Estimated buildout | 2028 |
Units built to date | 480 (four towers x 120) |
The chronology is public and it is unusually contested for a Naples community:
We include the consent decree because it is a matter of federal public record and a buyer doing diligence will find it. It is not a defect in the buildings; it is part of the honest history of the site.
No zoning or land-use application was found within approximately one mile of Old Coast Road in the last 24 months. The nearest real item is The Retreat MPUD, application PL20230015039, heard by the Planning Commission on 4 September 2025, increasing from 740 to 834 units, roughly 1.3 to 1.8 miles east.
You will find references online to a Vanderbilt Drive bridge replacement project. There is no such active project. Those bridges were completed in 2018, and the language still circulating traces back to a 2013 county study. The nearest funded roadwork is the Wiggins Pass Road sidewalk, FPID 448069-1, construction scheduled FY2027 at $3,039,052.
Four South Florida Water Management District environmental resource permits sit under the developer entity, including Kinsale Golf Club, permit 11-110050-P, issued 28 December 2023 and live through 2028. The 2026 Wiggins Pass dredge has slipped, re-bid twice with bids closing 11 August 2026 and the award not yet known. A year-round slow-speed manatee zone fronts the site. There is no Coastal Construction Control Line permit on the parcel.
Most of the following comes from Tower 200’s published owner FAQ, and it applies broadly across the community, but every one of these rules is set at the tower level rather than the master level. That means your building can differ, and the differences tend to land in exactly the places buyers care about, which is leasing frequency, pets, and what you may do on your own lanai. Confirm each against your own tower’s documents before you rely on it.

“The Boardwalk” is an on-site waterfront feature supporting kayaking and other water-based activities. It is named in the Club’s liability waiver, which groups it under facilities not owned by the Club and releases “the owner of the Boardwalk” as a separate party. The waiver’s risk language cites coastal tides, navigation, and injury by vessel or propeller, which tells you it fronts a tidal waterway with powered boat traffic, not the interior lake.
It is a master association asset. The POA’s own June 2026 financial statement carries “Boardwalk” as a POA fixed asset and “Boardwalk Operations” as a POA expense running $416.67 per month. So it is funded by your master association dues, and the Club’s waiver covers your use of something the Club does not own.
Not one of the 213 documents in the Club’s own public library mentions it, and it appears on no marketing surface anywhere, ours included until now. Whether equipment is provided, whether there is a launch, and whether any additional fee applies are all unpublished.
We are naming it because it is real, because you are paying for it, and because it is exactly the sort of thing a buyer discovers a year after closing.
Lars W. Young, Inc. is the design architect of all five towers, the clubhouse and the wellness center. The project architect and general contractor both changed partway through the build, which is worth knowing if you are comparing towers.
Tower | Design architect | Project architect | Builder | Completed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
100 | Lars W. Young, Inc. | WDG Architecture | Manhattan Construction | December 2017 |
200 | Lars W. Young, Inc. | Van A. Miller Architect LLC | Manhattan Construction | December 2020 |
300 | Lars W. Young, Inc. | Van A. Miller Architect LLC | Manhattan Construction | 2022 |
400 | Lars W. Young, Inc. | not established | not established | 2024 |
500 | Lars W. Young, Inc. | Van Auken Miller | Soave Development Company | not complete |
Interiors on Towers 100 through 300 were by CID Inc. The clubhouse, at roughly 90,000 square feet under its builder’s description, was constructed by C.R. Smith Inc. and completed December 2017.
Two shifts are visible in that table. The project architect moved from WDG to Van Auken Miller after Tower 100, and the general contractor moved from Manhattan Construction to the developer’s own Soave Development Company for Tower 500. A developer self-performing the final building is not unusual and is not by itself a concern, but it is a fact a buyer is entitled to weigh.
Roughly 900 auger-cast piles driven to 90 feet by Keller North America, more than 40,000 cubic yards of concrete, over 2,000 tons of reinforcing steel, and 727,000 square feet of building.

Kalea Bay has won a substantial number of awards: eight CBIA Sand Dollar Awards in 2018, two more in 2020, one in 2025, a Grand Aurora in 2017 for the Malibu model, two Grand Auroras plus a Silver Mark in 2020, and Aurora wins in three categories in 2026.
⚠️ Read that record for what it is. These are overwhelmingly sales and marketing awards, and one of the 2025 wins was for a magazine advertisement. We found no awards from the American Institute of Architects, ENR Southeast, or Best in American Living. The building is well marketed and well decorated; the trophy case is not an engineering credential, and we are not going to present it as one.
The most useful comparison set for Kalea Bay is not one we assembled, it is the developer’s own. Soave’s affiliated properties group Kalea Bay with The Club at Kalea Bay, Moraya Bay, The Dunes, Regatta, The Vanderbilt, and Pelican Bay home sites. That is a first-party grouping, not a competitor’s listicle, and it reflects how the developer itself positions the product.
Community | Relationship | What differs from Kalea Bay |
|---|---|---|
Moraya Bay | Same developer; hosts Kalea Bay’s beach club | Actually beachfront; Kalea Bay reaches it by shuttle and purchased membership |
The Dunes | Same developer | Established, not new construction |
Regatta | Same developer | Lower price tier, different product |
The Vanderbilt | Same developer | Different scale and vintage |
Pelican Bay | Adjacent market tier | Owner-controlled amenities and beach access as a membership right, not a purchase |
Kinsale Golf Club | Same developer, adjacent parcel | Golf, and no Kalea Bay access right |
Not price. Structure. Three questions separate Kalea Bay from most of its price peers:
A buyer who wants a new, finished, high-floor residence with a private rooftop pool in North Naples will struggle to beat Kalea Bay. A buyer who wants to own their amenities, walk to their beach, or play golf where they live should be looking elsewhere, and we would rather tell you that now.
⚠️ Price-per-square-foot comparisons across these communities have not been pulled and are not stated here. That requires a per-community MLS pull, and inventing it would be worse than omitting it.
Kalea Bay suits a buyer who wants new construction delivered finished, a private rooftop amenity in their own building, and a coastal North Naples address, and who is comfortable with an amenity center owned by a developer affiliate rather than by the association. It suits a golf buyer poorly, and it suits a buyer who needs full cost transparency before contract poorly, because the fee stack is genuinely not published.
If you’re searching for the best Kalea Bay listing agent, or thinking, “I need to sell my condo in Kalea Bay,” you are selling into a market running 94.80% of list with a 64 day median time to contract. That is a negotiating market, not an auction market, and pricing strategy is doing more work here than marketing spend.

What is my Kalea Bay condo worth right now? The trailing-twelve-month median is $3,877,500 community-wide, but the tower matters more than the community median: Tower 200’s median sold is $4,550,000 against Tower 100’s $3,300,000. Get a tower-specific valuation, not a community one.
Is now a good time to sell in Kalea Bay? There are twelve active listings against twenty-two closings in twelve months, which is roughly six months of supply. That is a balanced-to-soft market, and it argues for pricing precision rather than delay.
Why is sale-to-list only 94.80%? Because buyers here are negotiating, and because some sellers are anchoring to developer pricing rather than to resale comps. The gap between list and sold is where an accurate initial price protects you.
Can we list off-market? Yes, and at this price point it is often the right first move. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072 to discuss what an off-market approach looks like in your tower.
Do you handle the estoppel process across all three entities? Yes. Kalea Bay requires coordination across your tower association, the master POA, and the Club, and missing one of the three is a closing delay we routinely prevent.

Closed resales over the trailing twelve months ran $2,700,000 to $6,900,000 with a median of $3,877,500. Twelve residences are active today from $3,495,000 to $5,195,000, median list $4,287,000. Source: Southwest Florida MLS, pulled 2026-08-24.
Five. Towers 100, 200, 300 and 400 are complete and occupied. Tower 500 is the final tower and was in finishing phases as of the developer’s construction post dated 2026-04-28.
The Club at Kalea Bay is the community’s amenity center, owned by The Club at Kalea Bay L.L.C., a Michigan for-profit limited liability company registered in Florida as a foreign LLC, document number M15000001324. It is an affiliate of the developer, and it owns the recreational amenity facilities outright. It is not a Florida not-for-profit association and it is not owned by the residents.
No. There is no golf course, no golf membership, and no golf among the community’s published amenities at any tier. North Naples has substantial golf nearby, but none of it is inside Kalea Bay.
It depends entirely on which basis you mean. Under the recorded declarations, Tower 400 units are 3,238 to 3,290 square feet. Under the developer’s “Total Sq. Ft.” marketing basis, which includes the lanai, the same units are 3,723 to 3,922. MLS living area across all five towers runs 3,223 to 3,453. All three are correct measurements of different things.
Kalea Bay sits on Vanderbilt Drive in North Naples on a waterfront parcel just north of Wiggins Pass Road. Specific walking and driving distances to public beach access points are not stated here pending a measured source.
Five new-construction high-rise towers on the last significant waterfront assembly in North Naples, each with its own rooftop pool, sky lounge and fitness center, served by a separate amenity center with three pools, two restaurants, tennis and pickleball.
Yes. The developer delivers residences finished rather than as a shell, which is unusual at this price point in Naples and removes a long build-out from the buyer’s timeline.
This cannot be answered from available data, and any page telling you otherwise is guessing. The MLS measures resale, not developer inventory, and developer sales are frequently never listed. What is verifiable: every one of the five towers has resale inventory on the market right now.
No completion date is publishable. Three surfaces give three different answers, including the developer’s own Instagram contradicting the developer’s own website. Ask the sales office directly and get the answer in writing.
120 residences per tower. Towers 300 and 400 additionally carve out two separate Garage Units each.
All five towers are professionally managed by Guest Services, with each tower running its own management office. Tower 200 is (239) 880-2221, Tower 300 is (239) 350-3331, and Tower 400 is (239) 544-4020. The community gate house and after-hours emergency line is (239) 307-1908.
None of the three billing entities publishes its schedule. You will be billed by your tower’s condominium association, the master Kalea Bay Property Owners Association, and The Club at Kalea Bay. We will not estimate the amounts. Obtain them by estoppel from all three entities and by requesting the association budget from the seller. Any figure you find on a portal or competing brokerage page is uncited, and those pages do not agree with each other.
No. No community development district or special taxing district was found of record for Kalea Bay.
Soave Real Estate, a subsidiary of Soave Enterprises, a privately held Detroit company.
Two, both at the Club: the Driftwood Cafe, a casual breakfast and lunch venue, and Salt and Oak, described by the developer as the main club restaurant. Confirm current operating status for Salt and Oak with the Club directly.
Yes. Each tower carries a rooftop terrace with a negative-edge pool, open-air fitness center and sky lounge, in addition to the three pools at the Club.
Partly, and it varies by tower. Tower 400’s association has turned over, evidenced by its president being resident in the building. Turnover status for the other towers is not stated here pending verification.
These are set per tower in each building’s recorded declaration and rules, and they are not uniform across the community. Request your specific tower’s documents rather than relying on a community-level summary.
McGreevy and Comisar, Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008 and the #1 team in Southwest Florida since 2012, with over $900 million in personal sales. Call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.
The community median is $3,877,500 over the trailing twelve months, but the tower drives the number. Tower 200’s median sold is $4,550,000; Tower 100’s is $3,300,000. Start with a free valuation at mcgreevyandcomisar.com/home-valuation and then get a tower-specific opinion.
The median time to contract over the trailing twelve months was 64 days.
Twelve active listings against twenty-two closings in twelve months, roughly six months of supply, with sale-to-list running 94.80%. That is a balanced-to-soft market where pricing precision matters more than marketing volume.
Median sale-to-list is 94.80%, so buyers are negotiating. The most common cause we see is sellers anchoring to developer pricing rather than to resale comparables in their own tower.
Costs vary with the terms negotiated. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072 for a net sheet built on your specific residence and tower rather than a generic estimate.
Yes, and at this price point it is often the right opening move. We have genuine off-market capability and a qualified-buyer database built over two decades in this market.
Cinematic video, drone, professional architectural photography, direct outreach into our qualified-buyer database, and discreet distribution where the seller wants privacy rather than exposure.
Yes. Kalea Bay can require estoppel certificates from three separate entities: your tower’s condominium association, the master Kalea Bay Property Owners Association, and The Club. Missing one is a common closing delay here.
Tower 200 recorded the most closings over the trailing twelve months at eight, followed by Tower 400 at six and Tower 100 at five.
That depends on whether new developer inventory will compete with your residence, and no publishable completion date exists for Tower 500. This is worth a direct conversation rather than a rule of thumb.
Residences here were delivered finished, so pre-listing work is usually presentation rather than renovation. We walk the unit before recommending any spend.
The Club being owned by a developer-affiliated for-profit LLC is a matter of public record in the recorded declaration. Sophisticated buyers and their counsel will find it. Being ahead of it in the listing conversation is better than being caught by it in due diligence.
By naming the basis. We price against the recorded declaration figure and the MLS living area, and we do not use the developer’s lanai-inclusive marketing total as a comparison basis, because it is not what other listings are measured on.
The highest closed resale over the trailing twelve months was $6,900,000. Records before that window are not stated here.
Twenty-two closed in the trailing twelve months, totaling $94,180,000.
Condominium financing depends on the association’s reserve position, owner-occupancy ratio and litigation status, all of which vary by tower. We identify the issues in your specific building before they surface at underwriting.
Yes. We represent buyers and sellers across all five.
Commission is negotiable and set in the listing agreement. Call Jesse at (239) 898-6072 to discuss terms for your residence.
A large share of ownership here is seasonal, and we run remote sales routinely: virtual walkthroughs, remote signing, coordination with your tower’s management office, and handling access without you present.
Furnished sales are common in this market segment. Whether it helps or hurts your price depends on the furnishings and the buyer profile, and it is worth pricing both ways before listing.
Your tower’s declaration and rules, the association budget and most recent financials, estoppel certificates from all three entities, and any milestone or reserve study documentation your association holds.
The Club is a private LLC and its transfer provisions live in the Club’s own documents rather than in the condominium declaration. We obtain and review them as part of listing preparation rather than discovering them at contract.
Southwest Florida’s luxury market is seasonally weighted toward the winter months, but with 64 median days on market and six months of supply, timing is a smaller lever here than pricing.
At Kalea Bay specifically, the difference is knowing that the tower is the unit of analysis, that three entities issue estoppels, and that square footage has three bases. Those are the things that move a deal here.
Yes, always, and built on your actual residence rather than a community average.
We review pricing against current tower-level comparables and adjust, rather than waiting out the listing period. With supply at roughly six months, a stale listing loses more than a price correction does.
Sale-to-list at 94.80% and 64 days on market describe a market that is functioning, not one that is broken. Whether waiting helps depends on your tower’s specific inventory position, which we can pull for you.
Typically within days once documents are gathered. The gating item at Kalea Bay is usually estoppel and association paperwork across the three entities rather than anything on the marketing side.

A note on the master instrument. The Kalea Bay master declaration is recorded under document type RESTR (Restrictions), not DECL, and it is indexed under the grantor Lodge Abbott Associates LLC rather than under the community name. A document-type search for a declaration filed under “Kalea Bay” returns nothing, which is a real result and a misleading one. All eight records above were verified against the county and state registers on 2026-08-31, and every recording date, book, page and page count printed here was read back from the authority’s own record rather than carried forward from our notes.
