Carlton Residences, Estero Bay Completes Multi
The newest construction milestone has been achieved for The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Estero Bay, completing a weeklong foundation pour for the project's lagoon—a one-of-a-kind amenity unlike anything Bonita Springs has ever seen. This monumental effort involved 115 trucks, 1,460 tons of concrete, and 152,304 pounds of rebar, marking the largest ground-level pour executed by the developer.
Spanning one acre, the stunning crystal clear lagoon will serve as the project's crown jewel. Fifteen pavilions, designed to give the illusion of floating on the water and inspired by Balinese architecture, offer perfect spots for lounging, sunbathing, and dining, crafting a waterfront oasis right at residents' doorsteps.
Led by the visionaries at London Bay Development Group, the 224-residence, 22-story dual tower development has achieved over half a billion in total sales to date, the result of unprecedented interest from buyers drawn to the property's uniqueness, unrivaled offerings, and the rare chance to live both along a stunning coastline and within a breathtaking nature preserve.
"The completion of the lagoon pour is a pivotal milestone for London Bay and The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Estero Bay, bringing our vision closer to reality as construction progresses swiftly toward delivering this lifestyle experience to our owners," said Mark Wilson, CEO of London Bay. "The lagoon is not only a defining feature that elevates the property to a new level but also serves as a landmark for the region, symbolizing the evolution of luxury real estate in Southwest Florida."
Construction of the South Tower at The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Estero Bay is moving forward at a rapid pace, with a new floor being poured every 10 days, keeping it on track to top off in the first quarter of 2025. Nestled within the emerging 500-acre village of Saltleaf on Estero Bay, the structure itself will occupy 30 acres, spanning from the driveway to the towers, pools, lagoon, and more. Beyond the property line, residents will have neighboring access to Saltleaf Marina, miles of walking trails, and two nature-immersed courses at Saltleaf Golf Preserve.
Priced from the $3 millions, residences range from 2,628 to 3,885 square feet and are available with two, three, and four bedrooms, featuring dedicated private elevator lobbies, a separate den, unobstructed sunset views, sweeping balconies that enhance outdoor livability, world-class interior design, and much more.
Aquatic Adventures Await
Directly neighboring the property, Saltleaf Marina will provide thoughtful new access to the preserved waters of Estero Bay and beyond into the Gulf of Mexico.
Currently underway and expected for completion in early 2026, the marina also continues to take beautiful shape. The transformation of the shoreline is evolving daily, with decking already in place —preparing for all the boating, kayaking, paddleboarding and dolphin-watching to come in the near future.
This all-new launch point will be home to 72 private boat slips for vessels up to 30 feet in length and a chef-driven, five-star waterfront restaurant where every meal is served with breathtaking views of the bay. Whether you're enjoying it on land or water, the marina will be a vibrant hub of activity that complements the beauty of its coastal setting.
