Tides at Marina Towers: Waterfront High-Rise Living in Punta Gorda

by Hunt Brothers Realty

 

 

 

Tides at Marina Towers is a 33-unit waterfront condominium at 3020 Matecumbe Key Road inside Burnt Store Marina, the gated marina and golf community on Charlotte Harbor. Built in 1991, the six-story elevator building overlooks the marina basin and offers two-bedroom and three-bedroom residences, private outdoor living, a heated pool, clubhouse, fitness facilities and assigned parking. Although commonly marketed as high-rise marina living, current property records support a single six-story condominium building rather than multiple towers. Its Punta Gorda 33955 mailing address is in Lee County.

The location is the defining feature. Residents can look across Burnt Store Marina’s waterfront environment while living close to one of Southwest Florida’s substantial deep-water marinas. Boating, golf, dining, fitness and racquet recreation are available within the broader Burnt Store Marina setting, but buyers should distinguish between amenities included through condominium ownership and facilities that require separate membership, fees or marina arrangements.

Quick Answers About Tides at Marina Towers

Where Is Tides at Marina Towers?

Tides at Marina Towers is at 3020 Matecumbe Key Road in Burnt Store Marina. The property uses a Punta Gorda, Florida 33955 mailing address but is physically located in Lee County.

How Many Condos Are at Tides at Marina Towers?

Florida condominium records identify 33 residences in Tides at Marina Towers. The condominium project was registered in 1990, and current property records identify 1991 construction.

Is Tides at Marina Towers a High-Rise?

The property is commonly marketed as high-rise marina living, but current property records identify a six-story condominium building. Buyers comparing taller Burnt Store Marina towers should understand this distinction when evaluating views, building scale and elevator living.

What Size Are the Condos?

Current and historical property records document two-bedroom residences around 1,148 square feet and larger three-bedroom floor plans around 1,538 to 1,668 square feet. Floor plan, outdoor space, view and interior condition vary by residence.

Is Tides at Marina Towers Waterfront?

Yes. The building occupies a waterfront position beside the Burnt Store Marina basin. Current residences document marina and water views, including direct views across the north basin from Unit 106.

Does a Marina Towers Condo Include a Boat Slip?

Buyers should not assume that condominium ownership includes a private boat slip. Burnt Store Marina contains a separately operated deep-water marina, and boat storage arrangements generally need to be verified independently unless the legal documents for a particular residence establish specific boating rights.

Does Tides at Marina Towers Have a Pool?

Yes. Current property information documents a heated community pool for Marina Towers residents. Lee County permitting records also document pool-deck improvements completed under a 2024 permit.

How Much Are Tides at Marina Towers Condo Fees?

A current October 2026 Unit 106 listing reports a $956 monthly condominium fee plus a separate $1,194 annual assessment associated with the broader Burnt Store Marina structure. These are current listing figures, not a permanent fee schedule, and buyers should verify all assessments before purchasing.

Where Is Tides at Marina Towers Within Burnt Store Marina?

Tides at Marina Towers sits on Matecumbe Key Road within gated Burnt Store Marina. The larger community occupies the eastern shoreline of Charlotte Harbor, south of central Punta Gorda and north of Cape Coral.

One geographic detail matters for buyers. Although Burnt Store Marina properties use Punta Gorda mailing addresses, the community is in Lee County. County permitting, property records and other governmental matters therefore differ from properties located in Charlotte County or within the City of Punta Gorda.

Hunt Brothers Realty’s Burnt Store Marina boating, golf and waterfront living guide provides a broader explanation of the community’s marina, recreational facilities, residential neighborhoods and layered association structure.

What Are the Condos at Tides at Marina Towers Like?

Tides at Marina Towers offers multiple floor-plan sizes within a relatively small 33-unit building. Property records document two-bedroom, two-bath residences around 1,148 square feet, while larger residences provide three bedrooms and approximately 1,538 to 1,668 square feet.

Current Unit 106 demonstrates the larger format. Listed in October 2026, the first-floor end residence has three bedrooms, two bathrooms and approximately 1,538 square feet, along with a large wraparound lanai facing the marina north basin.

Because the building dates to 1991, interiors can vary considerably. Buyers may encounter original features, partial updates or substantially renovated residences. Condition should be evaluated unit by unit rather than inferred from the building age alone.

Do the Condos Have Private Outdoor Living?

Yes. Lanais and balconies are important features of the building. Current Unit 106 includes an approximately 272-square-foot outdoor area, while upper-floor residences can provide elevated marina views from their outdoor living spaces.

Does the Building Have an Elevator?

Yes. Elevator service is documented at Tides at Marina Towers. Buyers should review current elevator maintenance information and any planned capital work as part of condominium due diligence.

What Parking Is Available?

Current property information documents assigned parking and carport parking with individual residences. Parking rights and guest-parking arrangements should be verified for the specific condominium being purchased.

What Are the Waterfront Views Like?

Marina views are central to the Tides at Marina Towers setting. The building faces Burnt Store Marina’s waterfront environment, and current property records document marina, canal and partial harbor-oriented views depending on the residence and floor.

Unit 106 currently provides a direct view over the north marina basin from its wraparound lanai. Historical upper-floor property information has documented marina and partial bay or harbor views, illustrating how outlooks can change with floor level and unit orientation.

A marina view should not be confused with a private dock right. The visual waterfront setting and the legal right to store a boat are separate property characteristics.

What Is Boating Like at Burnt Store Marina?

Boating is one of the defining characteristics of the larger Burnt Store Marina community. The development sits directly on Charlotte Harbor and contains a substantial deep-water marina serving both residents and other boaters.

Current marina information referenced in the Hunt Brothers Realty Burnt Store Marina guide identifies wet slips, transient dockage, dry storage, fuel, freshwater hookups, pump-out and other marine services. The marina accommodates a range of vessel sizes, subject to current availability and operating requirements.

Does Buying at Marina Towers Guarantee a Boat Slip?

No. Buyers should not assume that owning a Tides at Marina Towers condominium automatically provides a wet slip or dry-storage space. Marina storage is separately operated unless property-specific legal documents establish otherwise.

How Far Is the Gulf by Boat?

Burnt Store Marina’s community information describes the Gulf of Mexico as approximately 10 nautical miles away through Boca Grande Pass. Actual travel time depends on vessel speed, weather, tides, harbor conditions and navigational requirements.

What Should Boat Owners Verify?

A buyer relying on Burnt Store Marina for boat storage should obtain current information directly from the marina. Important considerations include wet-slip or dry-storage availability, rates, contract terms, maximum vessel dimensions, draft, shore-power requirements, insurance requirements and marina rules.

Vessel-specific questions should be reviewed with the marina and appropriate qualified marine professionals before a real estate purchase is made dependent on a particular storage or boating arrangement.

What Amenities Belong to Tides at Marina Towers?

Current property information documents several amenities associated with Marina Towers and its condominium ownership, including:

  • Heated community swimming pool
  • Clubhouse
  • Elevator
  • Fitness facilities
  • Assigned parking
  • Waterfront common setting
  • Gated master-community environment

A Lee County permit issued in 2024 documents improvements to the condominium pool deck, including new pavers and pool coping. Buyers should verify the current operating status and rules for all facilities through the association.

Which Burnt Store Marina Amenities Are Separate?

This distinction is important. Burnt Store Marina contains boating, golf, fitness, racquet, dining and commercial recreation, but living at Tides at Marina Towers does not mean every facility is automatically included in the condominium assessment.

The broader community includes a 27-hole golf facility, marina services, dining and other recreational opportunities. Some programs can require separate membership or fees, and independently operated businesses establish their own pricing and access policies.

Buyers should identify which facilities are condominium amenities, which are supported through the master community, and which require separate memberships or commercial arrangements before comparing total ownership costs.

How Much Are Tides at Marina Towers Condo Fees?

The current October 2026 listing for Unit 106 reports a monthly condominium fee of $956. That equals $11,472 annually at the listed rate.

The same listing reports a separate annual assessment of $1,194 associated with the broader Burnt Store Marina structure. Current listing information identifies 24-hour guard services, cable television, pool expenses, reserve funding, association insurance, structural maintenance, grounds maintenance, management, sewer, trash and water among expenses associated with the condominium fee.

Fee amounts and inclusions can change. Buyers should obtain the current Marina Towers budget, master-community assessment information and transaction-specific estoppel rather than relying on a prior listing to calculate future expenses.

How Does the Burnt Store Marina Association Structure Affect Owners?

Burnt Store Marina uses a layered association structure. Tides at Marina Towers has its own condominium association, while the broader community also has master-community obligations addressing common infrastructure and services.

The Burnt Store Marina Section 22 master association addresses broader community matters such as common property, roads, access systems and infrastructure. Buyers should determine every assessment applicable to the individual condominium before calculating total recurring ownership costs.

What Should Buyers Know About Structural and Reserve Due Diligence?

Tides at Marina Towers was built in 1991, making building condition and long-term capital planning important parts of a purchase review. Available Structural Integrity Reserve Study reporting identifies Tides at Marina Towers and Marina Towers Condominium Association, providing a clear reason for buyers to obtain the current association documentation rather than relying on summaries from listing sites.

Useful documents can include the current budget, reserve study, applicable milestone or structural inspection information, recent meeting minutes, insurance documentation, engineering reports, repair history and information about completed, pending or proposed capital projects.

Inspection and structural findings should be evaluated with the appropriate licensed inspector, contractor, engineer or other qualified professional. Questions about Florida condominium requirements, association obligations or the legal effect of documents should be reviewed with a qualified Florida real estate attorney.

What Should Buyers Know About Flood and Insurance?

Current and historical property information places Tides at Marina Towers in a mapped flood-hazard area, with listing records reporting flood-zone designations including A or AE. Buyers should verify the current FEMA designation and property-specific flood information rather than relying on historical listing fields.

Current Unit 106 information identifies association insurance among expenses included in the condominium fee. Buyers should obtain the current master policy and understand the division of responsibility between the association and individual unit owner, including applicable deductibles.

Insurance availability, coverage, deductibles, exclusions and premiums can vary substantially by property. Buyers should obtain property-specific condominium, wind and flood insurance information and review it with a qualified insurance professional before making a purchasing decision.

Are Pets and Rentals Allowed?

Current Unit 106 listing information reports that two pets are permitted subject to association restrictions, with a reported maximum weight of 120 pounds. Historical property information has also reported a one-month minimum lease.

Pet and leasing rules can change through association amendments and should not be inferred from older listings. Buyers with a particular pet or rental plan should review the current declaration, amendments, bylaws and rules before purchasing.

How Does Tides at Marina Towers Compare With Other Burnt Store Marina Condos?

Tides at Marina Towers occupies a distinctive middle ground between Burnt Store Marina’s low-rise condominium communities and its larger waterfront towers. Buyers who want taller, larger-scale waterfront living can compare Grande Isle Towers, where four seven-story buildings offer larger three-bedroom residences and extensive waterfront views. Buyers should review that community’s current association circumstances carefully because legal and financial conditions differ among its buildings.

For buyers who prefer lower-rise marina-oriented living, Marina South Shore provides another Burnt Store Marina condominium setting near the waterfront.

Buyers who prioritize established low-rise condominium living can also compare Commodore Club and Spinnaker Club.

What Should Buyers Verify Before Purchasing at Tides at Marina Towers?

A waterfront condominium purchase at Tides at Marina Towers should include review of both the individual residence and the association. Important items include:

  • Current condominium assessment and exact inclusions
  • Current Section 22 or other master-community assessments
  • Current association budget and reserve information
  • Structural Integrity Reserve Study documentation
  • Applicable structural or milestone inspection information
  • Recent association meeting minutes
  • Pending, proposed or approved special assessments
  • Current master insurance policy and deductibles
  • Elevator maintenance and capital planning
  • Roof, exterior and waterfront common-element condition
  • Assigned parking rights
  • Current pet restrictions
  • Current leasing restrictions
  • Current flood information
  • Unit-specific insurance requirements
  • Whether any boat-storage arrangement actually conveys with the residence
  • Current marina availability if boat storage is important
  • Permit history for material renovations

Inspection findings should be evaluated with the appropriate licensed inspector, contractor, structural engineer or other qualified professional. Questions involving condominium rights, association obligations, contracts, title or other legal matters should be reviewed with a qualified Florida real estate attorney or other appropriate legal professional.

Are Tides at Marina Towers Condos for Sale?

Tides at Marina Towers had current resale activity during fall 2026. Unit 106 was listed in October 2026 at $429,900. The first-floor end residence has three bedrooms, two bathrooms and approximately 1,538 square feet.

Current marketing highlights the residence’s wraparound lanai and direct view over the marina north basin. The unit also reports one carport space and hurricane shutters.

Rental inventory has also recently included a two-bedroom, two-bath residence of approximately 1,148 square feet. Sale and rental availability can change quickly in a 33-unit condominium, so buyers should verify current status before relying on a particular listing.

Buyers can monitor current Tides at Marina Towers listings through Hunt Brothers Realty and compare them with other Burnt Store Marina homes and condos.

Is Tides at Marina Towers Worth Considering?

Tides at Marina Towers can be worth considering for buyers who want an elevator condominium overlooking Burnt Store Marina without moving into one of the community’s larger tower complexes. Its 33-unit scale, marina-basin setting, heated pool and range of two-bedroom and three-bedroom floor plans create a distinctive option inside the gates.

The broader Burnt Store Marina environment adds boating, golf, dining and recreation nearby, but buyers should evaluate those opportunities separately from the condominium’s included amenities. A marina view does not guarantee a boat slip, and living near the golf facility does not automatically include golf privileges.

The building’s 1991 construction also makes current association finances, reserves, insurance, structural information and capital planning important parts of the purchase analysis. Those considerations should be evaluated alongside the floor plan, view and marina location.
