Where coastal luxury, community charm, and canal-side living come together.

Designed to echo the romantic charm of Venice, Italy, this waterfront enclave is known for its scenic canals, charming bridges, and a lifestyle centered around the water.
From early morning paddleboarding to evening gondola rides and festive community traditions, life here flows with the tide—and the warmth of a close-knit community.
