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 architect Robert M. 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. Ronto and Swedroe designed the building based on their customer-focused research.
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.

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 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 enjoy the captivating ambiance.
