Residence 2 Outdoor Living | Omega Bonita Bay

Gorgeous Views

The objective of a high-rise is to provide its residents with beautiful, unobstructed views. When exploring residences, as well as the building itself, consider the views you’ll want to wake up to every day. Perhaps it’s the water, the golf course or both. Whatever it may be, the condo you choose should give you the perfect vantage point.

Premier Location

Many high-rise condos find themselves in good locations, but the one you select should be premier. Consider the condos’ proximity to local hot spots like upscale restaurants, entertainment, unique bars and perhaps even the world’s greatest beaches — if you’re lucky. The location of the high-rise condos that are for sale should put you in the perfect location to experience it all.

Luxury Amenities

Luxury high-rises should come with luxury amenities. Consider the luxury amenities in your high-rise community and your usage of them. They should be worth the price tag.

Additional Perks

Finally, consider the added perks of living in a high-rise and how it will benefit you. Perhaps it’s the likeminded people you’re going to. Maybe the community offers additional membership opportunities to local beach clubs or golf courses. For those who are tired of single-family home maintenance, perhaps you’re excited that condominiums are easier to manage and have less upkeep. The list goes on, but the perks that come with high-rise condo living should seal the deal.

Omega in Bonita Bay has everything you are looking for in a high-rise condo and more. With close proximity to numerous beaches and private access to Little Hickory Island, Omega is the perfect Florida place to call home.

Offering views that will take your breath away, you’ll never tire of seeing the sun rise and set from your high-rise condo.

One Luxurious Penthouse Remains Available at Omega, The Final High-Rise at Bonita Bay

One luxurious penthouse residence featuring a six-car “tandem” garage and a private poolside cabana remains available at Omega, a new 27-floor high-rise tower being built by the award-winning Ronto Group within Bonita Bay.  The Omega tower will be the final luxury high-rise tower to be built at Bonita Bay. Designed by Robert M. Swedroe, the clean-lined, modern looking tower will feature 67 residences, including 63 spacious tower residences and four penthouses, three of which are under contract. Ronto has processed sales worth more than $166 million and the building is more than 69% sold. Construction is underway and progressing as planned. The remaining penthouse is priced at $8.2 million. Pricing for the remaining tower residences that offer a stunning 4,645 square feet or 4,210 square feet under air and expansive views 78-feet or 68-feet wide ranges from $2,995,000 to $5,355,000.  Homebuyers are encouraged to make their purchase decisions soon.

Penthouse Living | Omega Bonita Bay

The Omega floor plans offer the square footage and width found in estate homes built on 110-foot home sites. The available penthouse 2602 residence features 6,455 square feet under air and a total of 10,150 square feet of living space, including an incredible 1,710 square feet of outdoor terrace areas with an Alfresco gas grill and 42-inch high glass railings, and a private rooftop terrace measuring 1,985 square feet. The residence also comes with a private elevator lobby, a private air-conditioned storage space on the same level as the residence, and the six-car “tandem” garage that measures 35-feet wide by 38-feet deep, a total of 1,350 square feet.

The 2602 penthouse also includes a private poolside cabana on Omega’s expansive outdoor amenity deck. For sun worshippers who are looking forward to lounging on the pool deck, the private poolside cabana offers a perfect place to cool off or to take a nap in air-conditioned comfort. The poolside cabana features a full bathroom and a beverage center with a sink and a refrigerator. The cabanas also offer a unique, comfortable place for children and grandchildren to stay while visiting Omega.  

The penthouse 2602 floor plan includes five bedrooms, a den, and five-and-a-half baths. The massive open concept living area features a great room with a fireplace, an island kitchen, a spacious walk-in pantry, a full-sized SubZero wine cooler, and a dining space that opens to splendid terraces that wrap around the corner of the building. Additional terraces are located off the owner’s bedroom and off two of the guest bedrooms. The light-filled residence will feature open living spaces with walls comprised of tall windows offering incredible views of Estero Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Volume ceiling heights of eleven feet four inches, except where dropped, will create a sense of space that cannot be duplicated by remodeling existing high-rise residences.

The open living spaces and sheer size of the Omega penthouses is unlike any high-rise residence previously built in the Southwest Florida market. Ronto and Swedroe created the building from the inside out based on preferences expressed by potential purchasers. The potential purchasers clearly indicated view corridors and spacious, open floor plans with large, flowing living areas, large owner suites and secondary bedrooms, big outdoor living areas, private garages, and readily accessible storage space were all critical to an enjoyable living experience.  Functionality and comfort were more important than form. Ronto and Swedroe also found that rather than wanting to downsize by moving into a condominium residence with less square footage than that to which they had been accustomed in their single-family estate homes, the potential purchasers wanted to simplify their lives by moving into a maintenance-free environment without sacrificing space or livability. Ronto and Swedroe designed the building based on their customer-focused research.

The expansive open living spaces and size of Omega’s tower residences reflect Ronto and Swedroe’s approach.  While the north facing 03 residences are sold out, 11 southwest facing 01 residences remain available and are priced from $3,900,000 to $5,355,000. The 01 residences will include 4,645 square feet of air-conditioned living space, an unobstructed 68-foot wide view, outdoor terrace areas totaling 1,005 square feet, and an 80-square foot foot private air-conditioned storage space on the same floor as the residence. The plans feature a massive great room, elegant dining area, comfortable family room, and a double-island kitchen. The great room and owner’s bedroom open to a huge west and northwest facing terrace with multiple conversation areas, a dining area, and an outdoor kitchen with a gas grill. The double-island kitchen offers an additional gathering place when entertaining.  The plan also includes a den, four-and-a-half baths, and three large guest bedrooms. The den and all three guest bedrooms open to another large terrace that offers sunrise views. 

Ten west facing 02 residences also remain available and are priced from $2,995,000 to $4,750,000. The 02-tower plan offers 4,210-square feet under air, an unobstructed 78-foot wide view, 540 square feet of outdoor terrace space, and 75 square feet of private air-conditioned storage space. The plan features a massive great room, an elegant dining area, a comfortable family room, and an island kitchen that combine to create the spacious, open living area preferred by potential purchasers. The great room fully opens to a terrace with conversation and dining areas and an outdoor kitchen with a gas grill. The plan also includes a den, three-and-a-half baths, and three large bedrooms, all three of which provide views of Estero Bay and the Gulf. The owner’s suite features a huge walk-in closet, and a bath with separate vanities and separate water closets.

Standard finishes in the fully completed Omega residences will reflect Ronto’s attention to creating a luxurious yet exceedingly livable environment. Flooring in the living areas will be wood, stone, or porcelain tile. The island kitchens will be outfitted with designer selected cabinetry, a multitude of quartz or granite countertop selections, a 36-inch SubZero refrigerator and 18-inch freezer, Wolf gas ranges and ovens, a Miele dishwasher, and Dornbracht plumbing fixtures. The bathrooms will also feature designer selected cabinetry and quartz or granite countertops, Dornbracht plumbing fixtures, and Toto toilets.

Omega’s indoor clubroom will measure more than 3,000 square feet and include tall windows overlooking the tower’s exterior amenity deck. A 2,100 square-foot fitness center will also feature tall curved windows offering long-range views. Contemporary glass railings will line the amenity deck’s curved perimeter and overlook one of Bonita Bay’s three on-property golf courses. A pool with a beach entry and two sun shelves will serve as the centerpiece of the amenity deck. A pool pavilion with a bar, seating areas, and men’s and women’s restrooms will offer a welcoming gathering place. A second pavilion is being designed as a food area with an array of cooking appliances. 

Omega’s 4,200 square foot rooftop terrace common area will include two hot tubs positioned next to the terraces’ glass railing, allowing residents to enjoy long-range water and sunset views. Two firepit seating areas behind the tubs, along with a larger fire table seating area complete with lounges, club chairs and sofas, will provide abundant seating to ensure all residents can fully enjoy the captivating ambiance.
