Updated 9/10/25 – London Bay Homes has presented updated renderings to Fort Myers Beach Town Council. The new plans scaled the condo building down from 17 floors to 15 floors. If approved, the project will feature 100 hotel rooms, 50 condo-hotel rooms, and 46 condominium units on the former Outrigger Beach Resort property.
Original Article – The Outrigger Beach Resort and Charley’s Boathouse Grill were well-loved landmarks on Fort Myers Beach. We have some great memories of listening to live music and watching the sunset with a cocktail at Outrigger. We were devasted by what Hurricane Ian did to these landmarks and the surrounding area. A year later, Londo Bay has unveiled its vision for the future of this property.
Fort Myers Beach Hotel & Residences
In a presentation to Fort Myers City Council on January 31st, London Bay unveiled plans for Fort Myers Beach Hotel & Residences. The local builder described their vision as “A boutique Old Florida lifestyle hotel, with residences, that is made for visitors & locals. It will cater to its neighbors & embraces visitors.” This proposed development would include a 100-room hotel, a 50-room condo hotel, a condo building with 46 residences, and a long list of amenities for the public to enjoy.
