Top 5 Reasons Why Mediterra

by Arelys Alexander
0 Comments

The Choice is Yours.  At Mediterra, this motto isn’t just an idea scribbled on a wall; it’s a way of life that speaks to the sacrifices, hard work, and dedication you’ve put in to get to where you are in life.  It’s the lush beauty of the Mediterranean region of Europe, the 1,700 lush acres with 1,000 acres of preserves and lakes dotted with no more than 950 luxury homes, and the plethora of luxury amenities to inspire an active and healthy lifestyle.  It’s the reason we were named Collier Building Industry Association’s Community of the Year multiple times, why we were awarded three Distinguished Emerald Club awards, and why we were named the No. 1 community in Florida for retirees by Best Retirement Destinations, among many other awards.

We invite you to step inside our world and discover the beauty of Mediterra.

 1. Experience and Reputation

Mediterra has been in operation for 20 years, making it a veteran in the golf and country club community world.  Our homeowners’ association is self-sufficient and provides all residents with confidence and peace of mind that their community will maintain the fresh and vibrant look to which they are all accustomed and will continue to be successful, award-winning, and stand-alone.  Mediterra is privately-owned and does not have any debt on its land.  Just five percent down will reserve one of the remaining home sites to secure your rewarding Naples lifestyle in a luxury home community unmatched in our area.

2. Mediterra Clubhouse

At the heart of Mediterra Naples is the Club at Mediterra, which has just gone through the first phase of a two-phase 24,000 square-foot clubhouse expansion.  This recent renovation provided an expansion of the popular cypress bar and tavern, the addition of an outdoor covered bar terrace, a new west-facing dedicated fire pit terrace, and a new covered grille terrace. Phase II of this renovation will include enhancements to 7,000 square feet of existing clubhouse space. The entire initiative is being undertaken without a member assessment.

The benefits of the clubhouse start with fine and casual dining.  Every member of our expert staff strives to recognize every resident by name and will also remember your favorite type of wine or cocktail.  Our food is prepared by a staff of award-winning culinary experts with a wide range of tastes to please every palate.  The Tavern at Mediterra offers casual dining with gourmet brick-oven pizzas, seasonal salads, and open-air grilled entrees by a popular lounge with a fire pit.  The Grille Room offers usual, fine, and healthy cuisine ranging from delicious soups and seasonal salads to exquisite gourmet sandwiches and first-class entrees.  The Club’s staff not only offers an exquisite dining experience, but also offers a full calendar of events with a regular schedule of unique activities to boost resident camaraderie.

3.  Mediterra Golf and Sports Club Programs

Our new home community facilitates an active and healthy lifestyle through many aspects of our programs, including the Sports Club where you can take part in more than 30 classes per week, enjoy a variety of programs, utilize state-of-the-art equipment, get your questions answered by a friendly, knowledgeable, and professional staff, and enjoy the companionship of nearly 300 participating members.  Stretch and tone with a relaxing yoga class, get your heart rate up with an invigorating Zumba class, or refine your skills during one of the Titleist Performance Institute Certified Golf specific programs. Members can also take part in Crossfit, Spinning, or even a Beginning Fitness class for those just starting out on their exercise regime.  

The Sports Club also offers a top-rated tennis program that was recognized by the U.S. Tennis Association as being an Outstanding Private Facility.  It features seven Har-Tru tennis courts, the two-court Tennis Colosseum, and a rounded court. The courts are framed by flowered terraces with brick walls, ornamental landscaping, a pergola, ivy-covered walls, and lighting and grass-tiered stadium seating for up to 500 spectators. Mediterra’s growing tennis program includes a host of educational and conditioning programs, from cardio tennis and daily clinics to league and club championship tournaments for advanced players. 

Another popular program offered by the Sports Club is Bocce.  The Club at Mediterra’s Bocce program began in 2010 and has grown to more than 500 members, providing a hub which connects sports and golf members in a fun, social atmosphere.  Mediterra members of all skill levels take part in Bocce with the use of the luxury golf community’s beautiful, nationally recognized ‘Bocce Garden’ facility, set beside the Sports Club.  The Bocce Garden provides the perfect setting to enjoy a beautiful sunny day on the two ‘Har Tru’ sub-surface irrigated courts built by famed court designer Tony Ritzman, but is lit for night play until 10:00 pm.  The sport is so popular that Mediterra has Mixed, Men’s, and Women’s leagues for tournament play.

Of course, we can’t mention the many sports programs available in Mediterra without bringing up the two Tom Fazio-designed championship golf courses.  These courses were designed to blend in with the nature preserves, lakes, and wetlands surrounding them, making them challenging, rewarding, and breathtakingly beautiful.  This may be why Golf Digest named them one of the 50 Best Golf Communities in America.

Mediterra’s golf program ensures tee time availability with a cap of just 225 members per 18 holes.  Members can also enjoy the benefits of the Golf Learning Center, which offers the latest in technology and instruction.  Currently, the waiting time for a golf membership is one year when you purchase one of our existing Mediterra homes. However, Mediterra has reserved a number of golf memberships for prospective homeowners that purchase a new construction home, making it even easier to find your dream home and delve into the luxury living lifestyle at Mediterra. 

All of these active programs have allowed Mediterra to be recognized as one of America’s Healthiest Clubs, ranking it among the top 10 percent of private clubs for its commitment to fitness and wellness for members and staff, but there is still more that Mediterra can offer.

4.  Luxury Beach Club

Our luxury home community is the only one that can offer a golf course, clubhouse, luxury amenities,  luxury custom homes, AND a 10,000 square foot, two-story private Beach Club.  Residents need only take a short drive to the member-owned Mediterra Beach Club to take advantage of 200 feet of private shoreline on the beautiful Gulf of Mexico and enjoy a beautiful day on the beach while being catered to by a friendly and professional staff.  The Beach Club has an elevated swimming pool with a sundeck and valet service for beach chairs, umbrellas, beverage and food menus, and any other luxury akin to beach resort living. You’ll never have to worry about forgetting any beach supplies at home because our Mediterra staff maintains their professionalism and commitment to you even outside of the Mediterra community gates.  Spend your day soaking up the sun, gathering shells along the shore, and finishing up with a dose of our casual, but signature cuisine served in our indoor or outdoor dining areas.

5.  Lush Landscape and Award-Winning Mediterra Homes

Aside from the open areas of the community, well-maintained landscape and a common architectural and design theme for the luxury custom homes will uphold this high-quality standard.  This is why Mediterra only partners with knowledgeable and reputable Naples custom homebuilders, like London Bay Homes.  As Mediterra’s preferred builder, London Bay Homes, offers many luxury villa and estate floor plans that are all fully-customizable to reflect your needs and wants.  If a One-of-a-Kind home is what you have in mind, their in-house team of architectural and design experts will develop a home that will be as unique as you are.  

If you would like a beautiful villa home in a lake view neighborhood adjacent to the luxury home community’s lush parks and perfectly manicured walking trails, then finding a home site in our Lucarno neighborhood or Cabreo neighborhood is just what you need.  Or maybe you would like a luxury estate home with a view of the Tom Fazio-designed golf course from your outdoor living space?  Then your tour should be of our Cortile neighborhood.  You can also discover the utmost in luxury and privacy with Il Cuore, a two-home neighborhood with its owned gated entrance.  One home site is already sold, but the remaining Il Cuore home site is Mediterra’s largest available property: a 1.5-acre site surrounded by more than 50 acres of nature preserves.
