Gated Communities

Throughout the entire country gated communities are starting to becoming the new in luxury standard living. High level executives and those looking for an additional peace of mind are looking for that added sense of privacy and security. Naples out of all the fantastic cities in Florida more than likely has the most gated communities in total. Bay Colony, Pelican Bay, Quail West, Bear's Paw, and Naples Bath and Tennis are just five great neighborhoods to highly consider. The majority of those that are gated offer impeccable golf courses with the finest manicured greens in all of Southwest Florida. Some gated communities have an actual guard that is present and some do not. There is a new system in place in which the arriving visitor calls through a call button to a third party security company that has been hired to host the entire gated entrance. They then oversee the protocol for approving and disapproving those who do or do not reside in the particular community. Making the decision as to who to let in. Luxury high rise condos in Naples along the beach and oceanfront perimeter are also considered gated. Many have additional security as you arrive to the building after parking.

Other rare and highly desirable locations that included really great gated communities are Marco Island and Sanibel. Captiva also has some wonderful gated communities - mainly condos. Several high level areas in Naples come with top of the line security systems in place and some even have several guards on staff so that one or two of them can actually roam around in the neighborhood to check up on the entire community and not just the front gate. Talis Park, Mediterra, and Estuary at Grey Oaks are three more fantastic single family luxury gated communities that come to mind in North Naples. Bonita Beach and Fort Myers Beach contain other stunning options as does Bonita Springs and Estero. The wonderful aspect to living in a gated community is knowing that you should only be running into people who are there for a main reason, to go home. There is also a sense of exclusivity to living in a gated community and this feeling is truly great. For those who have never lived in one, we recommend giving it much consideration. Living the gated community lifestyle is very much becoming almost a staple throughout Florida, especially in Naples.

Quail Creek with it's 18 million clubhouse renovation and Audubon Country Club are two more options at the utmost luxurious level in fine crafted gated community living. There so many other impressive locations that we recommend running a detailed MLS search on our website, (under the advanced search options). There is a selection area for criteria in which gated communities can be checked on the site search. This applies to both single family homes and condos. Our website mainly focuses on Naples but also includes all of the other surrounding areas. Some of these gated communities have equity and non-equity lifestyle golf membership available. The tennis memberships and social members are typically two options that cost less than the golf. Fitness, private restaurants, fine dining, and other great amenities are almost an expected part of the package. Longshore Lake and Wilshire Lakes are two fantastic opportunities along with Vineyards. They offer homes in the million dollar price range and most come with a private swimming pool and spa. Landscaping maintenance is usually reserved privately for each other of every estate to manage and take care of at their expense. Many trusted landscaping firms have built really nice reputations with homeowners throughout these communities.
