For years, Florida’s luxury waterfront conversation centered on South Florida. Tampa Bay, despite its economic strength and livability, was often considered adjacent to that discussion rather than leading it.
That perception has changed.
Tampa has emerged as one of Florida’s most dynamic metropolitan regions, with sustained population growth, expanding business investment, and an increasingly sophisticated lifestyle. At the same time, opportunities for new waterfront residences directly on Tampa Bay remain limited.
When regional growth meets constrained waterfront supply, markets recalibrate. Along Tampa Bay’s west shoreline, that shift is becoming visible at Marina Pointe.

A Private Peninsula on Tampa Bay
Marina Pointe is a 2025–26 Americas Property Awards winner and the sole residential community on a private peninsula in Tampa’s Westshore Marina District. Developed by BTI Partners, the waterfront enclave is centered around a protected deepwater marina and walkable neighborhood, offering a rare opportunity for marina-front condominium living directly on Tampa Bay.
The community’s first residential tower overlooking the marina is complete and fully sold out, demonstrating strong demand for this waterfront lifestyle in Tampa. Now, BTI Partners is introducing Luna at Marina Pointe, the second of three planned towers.
Today, the vision behind Marina Pointe is visible. The marina is active, boats move through the protected basin, and residents enjoy waterfront promenades with access to Tampa Bay. Dining and retail in the Westshore Marina District are open and walkable, creating a neighborhood that blends everyday convenience with waterfront living.
Residences at Marina Pointe feature open-concept kitchens and floor-to-ceiling glass that frame sweeping views of the marina and Tampa Bay.
A New Opportunity on the Water
Luna at Marina Pointe offers a collection of one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences, along with a limited number of four-bedroom penthouses. Residences range from approximately 1,100 to 3,400 square feet, each designed to capture expansive views of Tampa Bay, the marina basin, and the open horizon beyond.
Architecture throughout the tower emphasizes clarity and connection to the waterfront. Floor-to-ceiling glass frames the changing light over the bay, while generous private terraces extend living spaces outdoors—creating natural settings for morning coffee overlooking the marina or sunset gatherings as boats return to harbor.
Interior design reflects a modern coastal sensibility, with European-style cabinetry, premium appliances, stone surfaces, and open-concept living spaces designed for everyday living and entertaining.
Pre-construction pricing begins at $1 million, an increasingly rare entry point for new-construction waterfront residences directly on Tampa Bay.
Marina Pointe is positioned along one of Tampa Bay’s largest protected deepwater marinas, where 159 private slips accommodate vessels up to 90 feet and offer direct access to open water.
A Lifestyle Shaped by the Water
At Marina Pointe, daily life revolves around the bay. Residents enjoy direct access to the protected deepwater marina, where private slips accommodate select vessels and open water is only moments away. Paddleboarding, boating, and waterfront walks along landscaped promenades become part of the rhythm of everyday life.
Beyond the marina, the community offers resort-style amenities designed to support a relaxed waterfront lifestyle. Two elevated pool decks overlook Tampa Bay and include outdoor lounges, fire features, and shaded gathering areas.
Wellness facilities include a fitness center, movement studio, steam and sauna rooms, and private treatment spaces. Residents also have access to social lounges, private dining areas, co-working spaces, a theater room, and a virtual golf simulator.
The overall approach reflects a lock-and-leave lifestyle, offering full-service living that simplifies ownership while preserving the scale and views of a waterfront home.
Visitors to the Marina Pointe Sales Gallery can explore a detailed scale model illustrating the community’s waterfront towers and private marina.
Timing Within the Real Estate Cycle
When the first buyers committed at Marina Pointe, the marina was not yet active and the Westshore Marina District was still taking shape. Those early purchasers responded to the location, waterfront scarcity, and long-term vision for the peninsula.
That decision proved meaningful. Select early purchasers later realized resale gains reaching as high as 55%, reinforcing a pattern seen across phases: those who enter early position themselves ahead of broader demand.
A limited early commitment opportunity is now available prior to the next release phase, including a $10,000 incentive for buyers who secure their residence before wider introduction.
Prospective buyers are invited to experience the community firsthand by visiting the Marina Pointe Sales Gallery, located at 4900 Bridge Street in Tampa’s Westshore Marina District. Visitors can explore floorplans, view finishes, and learn more about the residences and waterfront lifestyle that define the community.
