For nearly three years, residents of Kalea Bay have been able to enjoy their community’s incredible clubhouse and the many amenities that surround it.
“I can’t begin to tell you the number of compliments we’ve received on our amenities over the years,” said Inga Lodge, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Kalea Bay.
The 88,000-square-foot 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-style 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 and 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.
If basking in the sun or taking a refreshing dip in the pool isn’t on a resident’s schedule, perhaps meeting friends for lunch, dinner or drinks is.
“We have the perfect place for all three,” said Lodge. “Our restaurants serve incredible meals throughout the day. And what better way to celebrate the good life in Florida than meeting family and friends for drinks while watching the sun set over the Gulf of Mexico. This is what living in Florida is supposed to be.”
Two restaurants serve residents of Kalea Bay. The Driftwood Café offers a more casual fare while The Salt and Oak restaurant is designed for an elegant evening dining experience and includes such features as a private dining room, a banquet room and wine tasting room – among others.
For those residents who have young children or grandchildren, the clubhouse will delight one and all with a teen lounge, complete with virtual reality and PS4 games, foosball, WiFi and multiple TVs, and a kid’s game room with child-size furniture, books, chalkboard and TVs.
Adjacent to the clubhouse lies the tennis pavilion with four Har-Tru tennis courts, as well as eight pickleball courts. Guest suites for overnight guests are also located near the clubhouse.
While the current state-of-the-art fitness center features Peloton bicycles, assorted strength machines, free weights and stretch area, Lodge recently announced that the community’s already outstanding amenities will be expanded to include a Wellness Center.
“We have finalized our designs for our 14,000 square foot Wellness Center,” she said. “Dedicated to the health and well-being of our residents, the Wellness Center is expected to include a dedicated yoga studio, sauna, spin room and Pilates. The spa will include treatment rooms while locker facilities and a large cardio and free weight area are also planned.”
According to Lodge, the construction of the Wellness Center is anticipated to begin in Fall 2020.
The incredible amenities offered at Kalea Bay have helped to propel sales as buyers continue to be enthralled with Kalea Bay and the value it offers.
In mid-August closings began to take place for the community’s second tower. Currently it only has 10 residences remaining of the original 120.
“That means there are residences ready for immediate occupancy,” said Lodge. “We encourage anyone searching for a perfectly designed home in an amenity-laden community to visit our recently remodeled sales center.
The completion of the second tower is a prelude to future construction. In fact, due to overwhelming sales, the community’s third tower is under construction, and will offer its residents phenomenal views of the Gulf of Mexico, just like its predecessors.
Tower 300 is 22 stories in height and includes 120 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.
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 3,919 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.
