It is also a stress-free waterfront retreat , designed for those who love the water but want the lasting peace of mind that comes with elevated, hurricane-resilient construction and a protected setting within Westshore Yacht Club.
A BOUTIQUE VISION, NOW RISING
Phase One of AQUA has officially “topped out” at 17 stories, with move-in ready residences anticipated for Spring 2026.
Carlos Avila, Director of Marketing and Sales for The Westshore Group LLC, describes the vision behind his family’s latest development: “AQUA is a boutique community, intentionally designed for those who value intimacy and exclusivity. We’re proud to deliver something rare; the comfort of a single-family residence blended seamlessly with the ease and privacy of luxury condominium living.”
With just 77 residences in the entire building, AQUA was created for individuals who know that true luxury isn’t defined by a logo…but by space, privacy, and the freedom to live on their own terms.
BEYOND THE FRONT DOOR
Life at AQUA extends effortlessly beyond each residence.
Residents enjoy direct access to a 175-slip deepwater marina located on the property,
accommodating vessels up to 130 feet, truly just steps from home. The exclusive Bay Club, private to members, offers waterfront dining, a tiki bar, spa, and fitness center, all within the gated Westshore Yacht Club community.
