The Waterway Luxury Condominiums is a low-rise waterfront complex in Bradenton constructed in 1982, consisting of three-story buildings that offer two- and three-bedroom residences. Architecture is typical of early 1980s coastal Florida developments: straightforward massing, covered walkways, and balconied units facing canals and Palma Sola Bay. Interiors commonly feature vaulted or cathedral ceilings, crown and coffered moldings, solid wood cabinets, stone or granite counters, built-in features, and open floorplans with primary bedrooms on the main floor. Many units have enclosed lanais or balconies, generous storage and attic space, and hurricane-rated windows in updated units. Common facilities are extensive and resort-like: secured lobbies with elevators, a heated swimming pool and large spa, fitness center, clubhouse with full kitchen and event space, billiards/game room, library, and tennis/pickleball courts. The marina-oriented setting includes deeded boat slips, a fishing cleaning station, and direct deep-water access to Palma Sola Bay with no bridges to the Intracoastal. Grounds are mature and tropical with irrigation, outdoor grills and kitchens, and covered parking with car-wash stations. The association covers many utilities and exterior maintenance; the community is non-age-restricted and pet friendly, positioned minutes from Cortez Fishing Village, Anna Maria Island beaches, dining, golf and regional airports.
