The former Rode’s Restaurant & Fish Market closed its doors back in 2019 after operating for nearly 20 years. The building, which sat on Bonita Beach Road, just East of Vanderbilt Beach was demolished at the end of January.  The site has now been cleared to make way for a new, exciting development: Cabana Resort & Spa.

UPDATE: 4/19/2024

Heatherwood Construction just broke ground on the first building of the exciting new Cabana Resort and Spa.

After overcoming a long list of hurdles, including regulatory setbacks, Hurricane Ian, and gopher turtle relocation, the developer is relieved that the project is finally moving forward.

Initial prices are starting in the $500s for Cabana Resort & Spa, and building one is already almost sold out! To download the floorplans, scroll to the bottom of this article. 

The Cabana Resort & Spa

This proposed 20-acre development will consist of luxury condos with a long list of public and private amenities. The resort aims to please both Bonita residents and visitors with a little something for everyone, ranging from a luxury spa to a surf machine!

The Residences & Private Amenities

The Cabana Resort will feature a seven-story building of 110 luxury condos. Residents can choose from one of four floorplans, ranging from 1,700 square feet to 2,600 square feet.

Fun For All: Public Amenities

Unlike most new developments in Southwest Florida, this resort happily invites the public to come and enjoy this little slice of paradise. It is important to note that this development is still very new and all proposed plans are subject to change. However, the resort has released some exciting features that sound promising! Perhaps the main attraction will be the Cabana Cove Waterpark which will feature 7 acres of resort-style pools, a relaxing lazy river, a tiki hut for food and drinks along with scattered sun decks! Rumor has it that we may even see a waterslide or two! The park will also feature not one, but two FlowRider surf machines, which John Paul can not wait for!

The amenities at the Cabana Resort and Spa don’t stop there.  The proposed development also includes an event lawn, neighborhood park, convention/event hall, neighborhood park, and a highly anticipated food hall! The food hall will feature a variety of restaurants and bars. No names have been released, but the developers have promised that their selections will appease foodies, coffee drinkers, and brew enthusiasts!
