Developer Jim Mack, Oceans Luxury Realty Start Sales of the 84-unit Aruba Condominiums in Daytona Beach Shores
Daytona Beach Shores, Fla. --- Veteran Volusia beachfront developer Jim Mack and Oceans Luxury Realty have teamed up to sell the first oceanfront luxury condominium in the Daytona Beach Shores area in more than seven years. The developer of the luxury project is Greenpointe Communities, LLC of Jacksonville.
Mack, whose local experience includes development of eight luxury oceanfront condominiums in the area over the past 15 years, is a broker with Oceans Luxury Realty and will serve as the project’s sales director.
Mack said Greenpointe has the site at 3721 S. Atlantic Avenue in Daytona Beach Shores under contract and plans to start construction in January.
The Aruba, a 12-story, 84-unit luxury condominium, will offer 60 oceanfront units and 24 with ocean views, he said.
Condominiums will range from 1,400 square feet of living area to over 1,800 square feet. Four floor plans are available in three and four-bedroom configurations with some that feature wrap-around balconies.
Priced from the $300s to the $600s, The Aruba Condominiums will offer onsite maintenance and building management, a home owners association and a fitness center, adult spa, clubroom, individual storage area and underground parking.
Mack has designated Oceans Luxury Realty to partner with him as an exclusive sales agency office for The Aruba Condominiums.
“We have already received preconstruction deposits from 25 purchasers,” Mack said. “Obviously, there is some pent-up demand for luxury oceanfront space in Volusia and we expect our sales might encourage other developers and property owners to think about starting projects,” he said.
“Many owners of these luxury vacation condominiums will presumably lease their units on a weekly or monthly basis during the off season,” Mack explained, adding “and Oceans Luxury Realty is available to assist them.”
Architect Larry Robinson designed The Aruba condominiums, Mack said.

Ryland Homes Unveils Two Newly Decorated Model Townhomes at Carolina Park in Mount Pleasant
Mt. Pleasant, S.C. -- Ryland Homes recently opened two newly decorated townhomes at Carolina Park, located on Tollison Path in Mt. Pleasant off Carolina Park Blvd. north of Highway 17.
Gayle Jinks, vice president of sales and marketing for Ryland Homes in the Charleston region, said the two-story Campbell model town home offers 1,850 square feet of living space with three bedrooms, two full baths and a half-bath for guests, a library and separate loft.
The Campbell’s wraparound porch and Hardiplank exterior provide a warm welcome, Jinks said, the open kitchen and family living areas offer ample space for entertaining as well as family activities. The deck off the side of the home is a perfect area for your outdoor enjoyment. The Campbell is one of the two plans Ryland is offering with the master bedroom located downstairs.
Energy efficiency is a big plus as well, Jinks added. The HERS-rated home features gas heating, a tankless water heater, low-E impact resistant windows, Techshield Radiant Barrier and dual zone climate control system to keep energy costs to a minimum. The Campbell also features a two-car garage.
The Horlbeck, with three bedrooms, two full baths and a half-bath in 1,627 square feet of living space is priced from just $299,000 with its two-car garage. The model showcases the brick front exterior but is also available with double front porches.
Double front porches---upstairs and down---are appealing, Jinks said, and indoors, a sunroom, breakfast area, spacious family room, and a well-appointed kitchen with granite countertops and GE stainless steel gas appliances are highlights. “The Horlbeck is perfect for entertaining with an airy patio off the kitchen,” Jinks said.
Ryland Homes is building 84 luxury townhomes at Carolina Park Townhomes.
“Mt. Pleasant is one of the most sought-after residential areas in the Charleston region,” Jinks said. “We have several great schools nearby and easy access to greater Charleston.”
Carolina Park features a resort-style swimming pool, playground, tennis courts and many walking trails throughout the community.
