Community amenities include an 18-hole championship golf course, yacht club, beach club, fitness center, a variety of sports programs and support facilities as well as a system of parks and green spaces.
The first floor in each of the six-story buildings contains a lobby, retail stores, a parking garage and mechanical spaces. On the floors above, the apartment sizes range from one- to four-bedrooms, with penthouses offering five and six bedrooms.
The apartment and penthouse layouts feature open living/dining and entertainment areas with floor-to-ceiling windows that offer panoramic views of the outdoors. Generously sized bedrooms have windows recessed in the walls. Balconies on almost every floor wrap around the marina-side facades and provide an additional outdoor room.
The facades have a limestone base with painted stucco walls and aluminum window walls. Shaped roofs create a distinctive profile for passersby and provide a high vaulted ceiling for the penthouses. Visitors enter a lobby with a limestone floor, teak wood paneling, plaster walls and a metal ceiling. The kitchens feature wood and metal cabinets with stone tops and backsplashes; the baths have stone floors as well as stone vanities and bathtub tops.
