An architectural masterpiece, Ariel stands 18 stories high. With just 135 residences, owners enjoy maximum space and privacy.  

 

A vast central atrium is capped by an umbrella-like space frame glazed with clear acrylic domes that keep rain out while allowing air circulation and light to filter into the entire area. It also features frigate birds cast in bronze and suspended above a large fountain containing a sculpture of a sailboat.

 

Ariel residents are treated to spectacular views from every angle. To the north lies the skyline of bustling downtown Fort Myers, and to the south, the expanse of the Caloosahatchee River and the beauty of Sanibel, Captiva and Estero islands.

 

Each floor in Ariel has nine units. The elegant penthouses on the 17th floor are each two stories. All Ariel units have panoramic balcony views enhanced by walls of floor-to-ceiling glass. The following provides a brief description of each unit:*

 *Note: Floor plans are representative. In recent years, many units have been renovated to meet the needs of new owners. Residents of all units enjoy floor-to-ceiling sliding-glass doors to balconies.

 

The detail and design of the nine penthouses create amazing homes. A glass elevator delivers the residents to the walkway leading to each unit’s entry. This short walk is bathed in natural light and air from the building’s dramatic space frame skylight.

 

As the front door opens, the unique features of each open floor plan can be seen. The interior incorporates traditional elements blended with modern aesthetics. The designs use smooth concrete, wood, marble, and stone that complement the dramatic two-story floor to ceiling glass along the entire length of the home. Walk through a first floor used for high-end entertaining and take a step through the sliding doors onto the large expanse of an open and inviting balcony with panoramic views of the Caloosahatchee River and Gulf.

 

Each home contains at least two master bedroom suites with additional balconies as personal retreats. Full walls of natural light, open floor plans, stunning sunsets that lead to stargazing and ample space ranging from more than 4,884 to 5,164 square feet make each home a paradise in itself. All penthouse units are equipped with home fire sprinkler systems.
