Owners often point to Merano's relatively low association fees compared with The Colony's towers, and residents still have access to the community's 34-acre private island beach park, tennis, pickleball and the optional Colony golf club. After more than 20 years, many Merano kitchens and baths carry their original finishes. This page explains how to remodel both and where to see pricing. Pricing is below. ![Merano at The Colony bathroom remodel after photo](https://remodelbycuttingedge.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Pelican-Landing-Kitchen-After-1-c.webp)After · Cutting Edge bathroom remodel ## Merano Bathroom Remodel Living on one level is the main reason buyers choose Merano, and many owners plan bathrooms to keep it that way for the long term. Curbless showers, wide doorways, blocking behind the tile for future grab bars and comfort-height toilets are common choices, finished in materials that do not look clinical. Primary baths from 2003 often have a large tub deck that can be removed to make a spacious walk-in shower with a bench. A second guest bath is usually updated in the same way, with a lower-threshold shower and a vanity at comfort height. Heated floors and improved lighting around the mirror are popular because they make an everyday room more comfortable without adding visual clutter. Merano residences are condominiums, so the association reviews the scope even though there is no elevator or high-rise logistics. The Colony and the Pelican Landing master association handle gate access. A single-story carriage home sits on a slab, so moving a shower drain means cutting concrete, which requires the association's sign-off and a permit from Bonita Springs. Our free LiDAR scan captures the existing layout, and the 3D render shows how a curbless shower will look before any concrete is touched. Bathroom remodels at Merano start from $33,000 per bath.

Owners now prefer simpler profiles, lighter or natural wood finishes, and quartzite or honed marble counters. Replacing the peninsula with an island, where the plan allows, improves flow to the dining area and lanai. Because Merano residences are on one level, the kitchen usually sits at the center of the plan, so its finishes carry into the living and dining areas. Many owners use the remodel to replace flooring at the same time so the new kitchen meets a continuous surface. A pull-out pantry beside the refrigerator, an appliance garage for small electrics and a dedicated drop zone for keys and mail are practical additions owners ask for once they start planning around daily routines rather than entertaining. Single-level living also shapes kitchen design. Drawers replace lower cabinet doors so nothing requires kneeling, microwaves move to a drawer below the counter, and wall ovens are set at a comfortable height. Lighting is layered with recessed fixtures, pendants and under-cabinet strips. The render shows the finished kitchen alongside your existing floors, and stone is fabricated from the scan for an accurate first-time fit and a shorter installation. Kitchen remodels at Merano start from $68,000. ![Merano at The Colony kitchen remodel after photo](https://remodelbycuttingedge.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Pelican-Bay-Kitchen-Remodel-Before-Cutting-Edge-Kitchen-Remodel-3-c.webp)After · The Colony kitchen remodel Price Your Merano *Kitchen.* Design an easy-reach Merano kitchen with drawers and an island in The Colony kitchen builder and see starting prices.
