Everything about Treviso Bay revolves around being “one of a kind” in every respect. The high level of luxury. The world-class amenities. Homes of consummate style and quality. Breathtaking streetscapes. And, at the top of the list, golf.

Available Treviso Bay Listings

As an Arthur Hills and Hal Sutton designed course, you’ll experience world class golf within 18 holes of championship play. “My goal with the design of Treviso Bay was to create a timeless golf course that would not pre-determine any type of shot or favor one type of play.

It is up to the individual golfer to decide which strategy will work best for them on each hole.”- Hal Sutton Hills and Sutton have strived to create a design where every hole challenges not only your skills with a golf club but your ability to out think the course and conditions.

What does all this mean to you?

If you’re a Naples Florida golfer and Treviso Bay real estate owning resident, it means that you are afforded one of the rarest pleasures the sport offers and the same level of play as golf’s greatest legends.

Pelican Bay Beach Facilities,  Berms, Boardwalk and Pelican Bay Parks.

Pelican Bay Beach Facilities

Pelican Bay beach facilities are located at the end of each boardwalk.  The south boardwalk entrance is at the Commons.  The north boardwalk entrance is at the SandPiper parking lot entrance in the 6800 block of Pelican Bay Blvd. at the western-most corner of the parking lot.  Beach side pavillons provide food and beverage service, deck areas, and restrooms with showers and dressing areas.  Pelican Bay has access to almost three miles of beach.

The Berms and Boardwalks

Two berms separate Pelican Bay upland areas from its estuaries and bays.  They serve three purposes: restricting rainwater runoff from entering conservation areas, acting as roadways for trams serving the beaches, and providing a path for walkers, joggers, bikers and skaters.  Bikers and skaters must travel at safe speeds.  Berms are only open to members and their guests.

Canoes and Sailboats

The Foundation provides both canoes and sailboats for members’ use.  Canoes are at a canoe dock on the north boardwalk .  Reservations are required for the canoes and may be made at the Foundation Community Center.  Sailboats are provided for use on the Gulf of Mexico to Pelican Bay Sailing Club Members.  Membership is for experienced sailors who are 18 years of age or older.  The annual fee is $25.00.

Parks and Nature Trails

The Pelican Bay Foundation has four parks for member use, each providing various amenities.

The Pelican Bay Commons : South Tennis Center, Horseshoe and Shuffleboard, South Berm Entrance, Hammock Oak Park.

Pelican Bay North Tennis Facility : Foundation Community Center, Horseshoe and Shuffleboard, Oakmont Park.

Pelican Bay Lake and walking trails : Playground area, Ridgewood Park.

The Pelican Bay lakes, docks, walking trails and picnic area are private property, but the Pelican Bay beach is a public beach.

Arts and Entertainment in Collier County and Lee County

The Philharmonic Center for the arts brings world-class shows and entertainers to Naples Florida, particularly through the fall and winter. The Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Hall in Fort Myers offers a similar lineup. Both halls have their own symphony orchestras and choruses.

The sprawling Estero Germain Arena provides a venue for big-name stars such as Elton John and Sting as well as ice hockey with the Florida Everblades and basketball with the Sea Dragons.

Elsewhere, two dinner theaters offer a meal and a popular show, and several smaller theater groups also have their own stages, including Florida Repertory Theatre at the historic Arcade Theatre in downtown Fort Myers.

Other forms of amusement include a plethora of multi-screen movie houses and clubs serving up comedy, country music, rock, jazz, folk and even an Elvis show.

There’s hardly a weekend throughout the winter season without at least a couple of festivals celebrating some local specialty or quirk. Among the annual fetes are the Goodland Mullet Festival, the Fort Myers Beach Shrimp Festival, Greek Fest, Mango Mania, American Sandsculpting Festival and the big one, the Edison Festival of Light, honoring the inventor around his February birthday.

Collier County Accommodations Guide

Naples has been welcoming guests for more than 100 years. Its earliest accommodation was a 16-room hotel that catered to visitors who traveled to this Gulf of Mexico haven for relaxation, fishing and hunting.

Today, Naples offers posh resorts and stylish hotels overlooking the spectacular beaches and on luxurious golf courses. Also, in the mix are a collection of excellent hotels and motels, often these are more moderately priced and still within easy access of the waterfront.

Naples Florida Architects, Collier County real estate and home-buyers.

Collier County homes exist in every price range and location, while model and speculative homes often secreted away in amenity-laden gated communities push interior design, landscaping and architectural detailing to new levels. All these give buyers the chance to walk through and experience the look and feel of their potential castle with nothing left to the imagination.

For some purchasers, however, existing homes might not feel quite right. They want something more personal that better reflects their lifestyles. Enter the architect, who can weave space into more than just walls and a roof overhead. Think of an architect as a personal problem solver, an artist who can create a dream home tailored specifically to your needs.

Deciding to enlist the services of a Naples Florida architect, finding one, and working well through the long, drawn-out process (often extending a year or two) can be daunting. But the end result can prove well worth the time and effort.

While state law mandates the use of an architect under certain circumstances (homes larger than 5,000 square feet and additions or modifications to homes along the coastal construction line, for instance), an architect’s services can benefit even the smallest project by minimizing builder and construction costs-and headaches. A Naples Florida architect’s involvement can be as encompassing or as limited as the homeowner desires, from simply drawing up home plans or consulting with a homeowner on existing blueprints to guiding the entire process from site selection to home design, construction and completion. Remember, an architect is the homeowner’s representative in the building process.

A good Naples Florida architect is a listener, a communicator, a liaison between owner and builder, a guiding hand, the person who can translate dreams to paper and a finished product. In short, an architect is superman or superwoman, capable of leaping tall buildings-or at least designing a great home.

Through a public records request, the state Division of Business and Professional Regulation can let a client know if a prospective architect has been reprimanded. Industry awards are indicative of how an architect is looked upon by peers.

Finding an architect can be as simple as scanning the Yellow Pages or asking friends whose homes you admire. Word of mouth is often the best reference.

Once hired, a Naples Florida architect should sit down with clients and discuss lifestyle, needs, dreams and desires. Homeowners will often be asked to complete an extensive survey that delves into how they use their home, their expectations and their wish list.

Early decisions should also include others involved in the process-builder, interior designers and landscape architects. Assembling the team early helps to identify and eliminate potential problems.
