How does Infinity opening in 2026 affect my older tower resale value?

New construction at $4.5M+ resets every older tower comp set. Older WCI towers must compete on updated interiors since Infinity 2026 spa-grade primary suites define the luxury baseline. A Better-tier bath renovation ($48K-$66K) restores an older tower position, typically returning 70-76% ROI.

What is the right bath budget for a 3-year hold?

At $2.25M median: Navona, Sorrento, Florencia Good tier $32K-$44K. Palermo, Treviso, Altaira mid-floor Better tier $48K-$66K. La Scala and Altaira penthouses Best tier $66K-$78K. Tuscany Isle and Messina Court custom estates $70K-$78K+.

Is The Colony Golf and Country Club membership required?

No. The Colony Golf and Country Club membership is optional. Residents also have full access to Pelican Landing amenities including the Big Hickory Island beach park without The Colony membership. Homes sold with transferable Colony membership command a modest premium.

Q: Do I need board approval for a bathroom remodel in my Colony tower?

Yes. Every Colony high-rise tower requires building-specific board approval for bath renovations: architectural drawings, $2M contractor insurance, licensed contractor registration, move scheduling, and 4-8 weeks for board review. Single-family Tuscany Isle and Messina Court require Colony ARC + Pelican Landing master ARC for exterior changes.

Q: How long does a Colony bathroom remodel take?

Good-tier projects: 4-8 weeks. Better and Best-tier projects: 8-16 weeks. Fabrication runs in parallel. Peak-season building restrictions on demo and heavy deliveries affect scheduling.

Q: Do you handle accessibility upgrades for aging-in-place?

Yes across every Colony tower and neighborhood. Curbless walk-in showers, comfort-height vanities, grab-bar blocking, and zero-threshold transitions are frequent requests, particularly in the high-rise towers. We coordinate ADA-style fixtures from Brizo, Kohler Purist, and Waterworks lines that integrate without reading as institutional.

Pulled from NABOR MLS, Naples Area Real Estate transaction reports, and the 2026 Infinity tower opening data. Use this to map your bathroom investment to likely resale at year 3, 5, and 7 — especially in a comp set being re-set by Infinity’s opening.

$2.55M

The Colony spans a wide comp-set range in 2025: Navona condos $925K, Sorrento end-units ~$1M, Palermo 3rd floor $1.15M, La Scala 5th floor $2.2M, Altaira 8th floor $2.3M. The game-changer: Infinity at The Colony opened in 2026 (Ronto Group + Wheelock Capital, 22-story, 96 residences, 3,000–4,100 sqft, pricing from high $2M). Top 2025 Infinity pre-construction sales reached $4.4M–$4.5M. The new Infinity comp set is resetting buyer expectations across every existing Colony tower — and a renovated primary bath now drives a 12–18% premium against original-finish comps, making Better/Best-tier renovations of older WCI towers (La Scala, Palermo, Treviso, Florencia, Sorrento, Navona, Altaira) especially timely for ROI.

The Colony Bathroom Remodel by Tower & Neighborhood

The Colony Bathroom Remodel By Tower.

Infinity (2026)

The Colony’s newest tower — Ronto Group + Wheelock Capital, 22 stories, 96 residences, 3,000–4,100 sqft, 3–4 bedrooms. Private elevator access, floor-to-ceiling windows. Already delivered with spa-grade primary baths — typical scope is 5-year targeted upgrades to commissioned European finishes. $4.5M 2025 top pre-construction sale.

Altaira (2017)

Formerly The Colony’s newest tower prior to Infinity. 75 high-rise units 3,315–3,600 sqft. Private elevator entry, panoramic Gulf + Bay views. Primary baths at 9 years are right in the Better-tier sweet spot — wet-room updates that keep pace with Infinity’s 2026 reset.

La Scala

64 high-rise condominiums 3,510–7,000+ sqft — the largest floor plates at The Colony outside Infinity. Steps from the Bay Club. Best-tier estate-scale primary suites with dual vanities, standalone tubs, steam, and view-integrated wet rooms are the norm.

Palermo

Among The Colony’s most exclusive towers. Upper-floor units command 3rd-floor+ sunset views of the Gulf, sunrise views to the East, Estero Bay views. Better-to-Best tier primary suites with panoramic view-framing and impact-glass upgrades dominate.

Treviso

76 high-rise condominiums 2,700–3,100 sqft, Gulf + Estero Bay + Colony golf views. Better-tier primary bath renovations with view-capture design and a curbless walk-in shower respond strongly to the 2025–2026 buyer set.

Navona · Sorrento · Florencia

Entry-tier Colony high-rises. Navona covered-parking plus lower condo fees. Sorrento allows 1 pet. Florencia mid-tower pricing. Good-to-Better tier bath renovations with transitional coastal finishes. Most cost-effective Colony investment window as these towers trail the 2025–2026 Infinity/Altaira comp uplift.

Tuscany Isle · Messina Court

The Colony’s custom-estate single-family neighborhoods. Tuscany-inspired architectural vocabulary. Best-tier commissioned primary suites with European vanities, book-matched exotic stone, and dual-vanity wet rooms typical. 4,000+ sqft estate-scale floor plates.

Castella · Cielo · Terzetto

The Colony’s mid-rise condominium neighborhoods. Castella lagoon-style pool + mangrove views. Cielo 2,950 sqft across 12 buildings. Terzetto low-rise entry point. Better-tier primary bath renovations with coastal transitional vocabulary + quartzite finishes dominate.

Bellagio · Ponza · Villa Trevi · Addison Place · Las Palmas

The Colony’s villa and single-family neighborhoods. Bellagio 28 estate homes 3,000+ sqft overlooking Colony golf + lakes. Villa Trevi lake views with towering palms. Las Palmas 49 villas with cobblestone streets. Better-tier primary suites that modernize 2000s vocabulary to current buyer expectations, with accessibility upgrades a frequent request.

Full custom inset (Wood-Mode, Plain & Fancy) at baseline. Commissioned European (SieMatic, Poliform, Boffi) at Best.

About The Colony Homes We Remodel

Every The Colony Bathroom Remodel
Starts Here.

The Colony at Pelican Landing is an exclusive gated enclave within the larger Pelican Landing master-planned community, developed originally by WCI Communities as Phase 2 of Pelican Landing with a focus on high-rise residences and custom estates. The community is centered on an 18-hole par-72 championship golf course designed by Jerry Pate, and offers residents access to The Colony Bay Club (residents-only dining on Estero Bay) as well as the full Pelican Landing amenity set — including the 34-acre private Big Hickory Island beach park.

The Colony housing stock is anchored by 7 high-rise towers all developed by WCI: La Scala (largest floor plates, 3,510–7,000 sqft), Palermo (upper floors most exclusive), Treviso, Florencia, Sorrento, Navona (lowest condo fees), and Altaira (WCI’s newest, completed 2017). Custom estate neighborhoods include Tuscany Isle and Messina Court. Mid-rise condominium neighborhoods include Castella, Cielo, and Terzetto. Villa and single-family neighborhoods include Bellagio, Ponza, Villa Trevi, Addison Place, and Las Palmas. The game-changer: Infinity at The Colony — developed by Ronto Group + Wheelock Capital, opened 2026 — a 22-story tower with 96 residences (3,000–4,100 sqft, pricing from high $2M, top 2025 pre-construction sales $4.4M–$4.5M). Infinity is being marketed as “a resort within a resort.”

For bathroom remodels, The Colony presents the Infinity Effect: the 2026 opening is resetting buyer expectations across every existing WCI tower, and a renovated primary bath now drives a measurable 12–18% premium against original-finish comps. Good-tier renovations ($32K–$44K) work well for Navona, Sorrento, Florencia mid-floor units. Better-tier renovations ($48K–$66K) dominate Palermo, Treviso, Altaira, and mid-rise condos (Castella, Cielo, Terzetto). Best-tier renovations ($70K–$78K) match La Scala estate-scale units (3,510–7,000 sqft) and Tuscany Isle / Messina Court custom estates. Infinity residents typically pursue targeted 5-year upgrades with commissioned European finishes. Every Colony renovation factors in Colony ARC, Pelican Landing master ARC, building-specific board approval, and Lee County permitting.

The Colony Bathroom Remodel FAQs

The Colony Bathroom Remodel
FAQs.

Do I need board approval for a bathroom remodel in my Colony tower?

Yes — every Colony high-rise tower (La Scala, Palermo, Treviso, Florencia, Sorrento, Navona, Altaira, Infinity) requires building-specific board approval for bath renovations. Typical requirements: architectural drawings, $2M contractor insurance, licensed contractor registration, move-in/move-out scheduling for demo and deliveries, and 4-8 weeks for board review. Because bath work involves plumbing risers and waterproofing, board scrutiny is often higher than for a kitchen. Single-family Tuscany Isle and Messina Court require Colony ARC + Pelican Landing master ARC for exterior changes. We handle all submissions.

How does Infinity opening in 2026 affect my older tower’s resale value?

The Infinity effect is real: new construction at $4.5M+ for 3,000–4,100 sqft resets every older tower’s comp set. Older WCI towers (La Scala, Palermo, Treviso, Florencia, Sorrento, Navona, Altaira) now need to compete on updated interiors since Infinity’s 2026 spa-grade primary suites define the current luxury baseline. A thoughtful Better-tier bath renovation ($48K–$66K) of an older tower restores its position relative to the new Infinity baseline, typically returning 70–76% ROI.

What’s the right bath budget if I’m planning to sell in 3 years?

At The Colony’s $2.25M 2025 median and a 3-year hold, budget depends on tower. Navona, Sorrento, Florencia: Good tier $32K–$44K. Palermo, Treviso, Altaira mid-floor: Better tier $48K–$66K. La Scala 3,510+ sqft units and Altaira penthouses: Best tier $66K–$78K. Tuscany Isle / Messina Court custom estates: Best tier $70K–$78K+. Infinity residents typically focus on targeted 5-year upgrade refreshes vs. full renovations.

Is The Colony Golf & Country Club membership required?

No — The Colony Golf & Country Club membership is optional, available to residents for an additional fee. The club features an 18-hole par-72 Jerry Pate-designed course, tennis courts, swimming pool, and fitness center. Residents also have full access to Pelican Landing’s amenity set (beach park, community center, tennis, pickleball, bocce, kayak park) without The Colony membership. Homes sold with transferable Colony membership command a modest premium.

How long does a Colony bathroom remodel take from contract to walkthrough?

Good-tier projects: 4-8 weeks (smaller footprints, refresh scope, semi-custom vanity). Better and Best-tier projects: 8-16 weeks (full custom vanity, structural reconfig, premium materials). Best-tier La Scala, Infinity, and Tuscany Isle estate projects with commissioned European cabinetry and full wet-room reconfig run at the upper end. European millwork fabrication runs in parallel. Peak-season (December–April) building restrictions on demo and heavy deliveries affect scheduling — we plan around them.

Can I renovate during tower peak-season residency?

Most Colony towers restrict demo, heavy deliveries, and construction noise during peak season (typically December 1 through April 30). Light finishing work may be permitted. We schedule heavy demo and structural phases for May–November and coordinate finishing phases around peak-season restrictions. For renovations starting October or later, we typically complete pre-demo preparation in early fall and pause demo until May.

Will a bathroom remodel trigger a property tax reassessment?

Florida’s Save Our Homes cap protects homesteaded primary residences from taxable-value increases above 3% per year. An investment or second-home Colony property may see a taxable-value adjustment at the next Lee County Property Appraiser cycle, but interior bath remodels rarely trigger material reassessment unless square footage is added. Confirm with your CPA.

Do you handle accessibility upgrades for aging-in-place?

Yes across every Colony tower and neighborhood we’ve worked in. Curbless walk-in showers, comfort-height vanities, grab-bar blocking inside finished walls, and zero-threshold transitions are frequent requests, particularly in the high-rise towers where residents plan to age in place with elevator access. We coordinate ADA-style fixtures from Brizo, Kohler Purist, and Waterworks lines that integrate without reading as institutional.
