EXPANDING THE CONDOMINIUM DIVISION

Even during a year when the most impactful hurricane in decades swept the state, our Condominium Division celebrated great successes and expansions. Meet the latest condominiums to join the Guest Services family. With ultra-luxury style communities full of worldclass amenities, these units offer a remarkable experience to their owners and tenants.

KALEA BAY – MASTER

Kalea Bay is a gated waterfront community offering luxurious high-rise living, meticulously manicured with stately palm trees, beautiful man-made lakes, and luxuriant floral plantings. When fully built out, the upscale development will be home to 582 residences within five towers, spanning more than 480 acres of pristine Florida land.

KALEA BAY – TOWER 300

Located on the last waterfront property in North Naples, Kalea Bay’s T300 high-rise tower offers stunning views of the Gulf of Mexico and is ideally positioned to take advantage of the magnificent sunsets. The 120 residences at Kalea Bay, equipped with private elevators that lead directly into the residence, are designed to be a coastal retreat. A place where peace, comfort, and convenience come together in a rich and carefree lifestyle.

Mystique At Waterpark Place

Set against the tranquil waters of the Gulf of Mexico and featuring a collection of elegantly appointed and masterfully designed residences, Mystique is redefining luxurious beach-front living at one of Naples’ most prestigious addresses. The extraordinary lifestyle at this iconic 81-unit, 20-story tower surrounds residents in incomparable luxury. It features expansive floor plans with walls of windows, spacious private terraces showcasing breathtaking views, and world-class services and amenities that cater to an exceptional lifestyle.

ST. LAURENT AT PELICAN BAY

Located along Grenadier Boulevard, the opulent high-rise condo community is located in the central area of Pelican Bay, the premier luxury community in Naples. The high-rise condo offers stunning views of the Gulf beach, the beautiful Clam Pass, and the wide verdant area of nature preserves surrounding the community. St. Laurent comprises 107 well-designed condo residences, including five luxury penthouses spread within the 22-story condo tower.

The Team

This past year, we introduced four new Condominiums to our portfolio, shifted our business development strategy within this industry, and made a few adjustments to key members of this exceptional team.

“While our niche in the market has been and will continue to be managing luxury high-rise condominiums, a new direction of the company is not only establishing our presence in a market beyond Southwest Florida but also transitioning into the Home Owners Association (HOA) market,” says Joana Vasilescu, LCAM (Licensed Community Associate Manager), the new Director of Operations in the Condo Division.

In addition to the introduction of Vasilescu as Director, the Condominium Division also now has three District Managers; Kris Savoie, Kurt Andrae, and Ethan Loschiavo.

• Barry Trice – Vice President of the Hospitality Division, is responsible for the executive oversight of the Condominium Division.

• Joana Vasilescu, LCAM, started her hospitality career in Marriott’s accounting department and quickly advanced to Regional Operations Specialist overseeing 42 hotels and condominium residencies. In 2016, she relocated to Florida from New Jersey and started working as a Regional Director of Property Management, playing a key role in business development, training initiatives, client relationships, quality assurance, and nurturing staff growth and development.

• Kris Savoie, LCAM, is originally from the Minnesota area where she graduated from the College of St. Catherine’s and began her career in hospitality and property management in 1985. She has been serving Naples’s area residents for over 25 years in the hospitality industry and was Regional Director for the SWFL area working with high end developers in both single family and luxury condos for several years. She is actively involved with the Community Association Institute (CAI).

• Kurt Andrae, LCAM, has over 25 years of varied real estate experience ranging from financing some of the largest construction projects in Chicago & Milwaukee as a banker to founding an award-winning residential development company as well as a de novo bank, where he was President & CEO. Most recently, before joining Guest Services, he served as Controller for a local association management firm, along with overseeing their maintenance division.

• Ethan Loschiavo, LCAM, is originally from the Northern KY/Cincinnati area and has served Naples’s area residents in the community management industry for over sixteen years. He is a graduate of the University of Kentucky and has been actively involved with the Community Association Institute (CAI), the condominium management industry’s leading trade organization, as both a student and volunteer since 2008.
