When you’re not gazing from your lanai, take the elevator down one floor for a swim in the pool or an invigorating workout in the clubhouse right next door! The clubhouse is currently undergoing complete remodeling and will include fitness rooms, a full catering kitchen, large screen TV, and an elegant, comfortable space for social events or private entertaining. This unit also comes with an assigned storage locker for all of your beach essentials. The common laundry room just steps from this unit features 2 sets of W/Ds, enabling you to complete your laundry in half the time so you can spend more time outdoors enjoying the Florida lifestyle!
