After hosting literally thousands of visitors during February’s Model Home Showcase, Mediterra is once again putting its spectacular collection of furnished models on display starting today.
The special Model Home Showcase event will continue next Sunday, April 22nd, and conclude on Sunday, April 29th. Showcase hours each Sunday are noon to 5:00 p.m. Mediterra is a 1,697-acre gated community located two-miles north of Immokalee Road on Livingston Parkway in North Naples. The Model Home Showcase presents seven furnished models by London Bay Homes that feature interiors by Romanza Interior Design. Covered lanais overlooking Mediterra’s tableau include outdoor kitchens and dining and conversation areas. Custom pools by London Bay’s Acquatico Pools showcase pavered decks and fire and water features.
More than 60 purchase opportunities remain available in Mediterra. Available choices include London Bay’s new collection of furnished model residences, as well as home sites showcasing water and preserve views. Purchasers of homes by London Bay are eligible to secure a full golf membership immediately rather than being placed on the membership waiting list as a Limited Golf Member. London Bay Homes, an award-winning homebuilder and developer in the Southwest Florida luxury home market for more than three decades, manages all new home construction sales and marketing for Mediterra.
Mediterra is a place that is still becoming, a place that continues to expand its amenity and new home choices to create a more thoughtful, more relaxed approach to luxury living that reflects the preferences of homebuyers who crave livability, fun, and personal connections over the formality of their parents’ country club lifestyle. Recently named recipient of The Collier Building Industry Association’s Sand Dollar Award for Community of the Year Over $1 Million for the 11th time in 15 years, Mediterra’s acclaimed array of amenities offers the possibility of living a healthy, active lifestyle with numerous opportunities to connect with other residents or to reconnect with oneself through quiet moments of reflection.
Mediterra’s grand 25,000 square-foot Mediterranean-style clubhouse is a favored gathering place offering formal and informal dining, the Tavern outdoor lounge experience, and an inviting outdoor open-air terrace with firepits overlooking the 18th hole of the south course - one of the community’s two Tom Fazio-designed championship golf courses that are the jewels of the community. Never stuffy or ostentatious, the clubhouse offers an engaging atmosphere where informal attire, including jeans, is always welcomed. Under the direction of executive chef Tyler Field who partners with Mediterra’s general manager and COO Carmen Mauceri, a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and winner of the American Culinary Federation Award of Excellence and Chef de Cuisine for a Presidential Dinner, The Club at Mediterra’s dining options offer a varied menu with unique concepts that include a “doctor’s orders” menu with a selection of healthy items.
A 24,000 square-foot clubhouse expansion is scheduled to begin this year and will expand the covered outdoor terrace and outdoor lounge areas that have become increasingly popular with Mediterra’s youthful and highly social residents. In addition, 7,000 square feet of existing clubhouse space will be enhanced as part of the initiative that is being undertaken without a member assessment.
Consistently rated as one of Naples’ most prestigious golf communities, Mediterra showcases two distinctly different golf courses designed by Tom Fazio. Set against the splendor of Mediterra’s spectacular tableau, the courses weave their way along sparkling lakes, wetlands, and nature preserves. As beautiful as they are playable, each of the courses presents distinctive design characteristics and unique challenges for golfers of every skill level. Members also enjoy the benefits of the Golf Learning Center that offers the latest in swing analysis technology and personalized instruction. Membership opportunities at Mediterra are limited to just 225 members per 18 holes, allowing for abundant tee times.
If the two Tom Fazio-designed golf courses are the crown jewels of Mediterra, the 10,000 square-foot Mediterra Beach Club on nearby Little Hickory Island is the community’s Holy Grail. No other luxury golf course community in Southwest Florida can match the beach experience available to Mediterra residents. The Beach Club was recently remodeled and now conveys “the magic of the beach” with colors reminiscent of the sand and water and South Beach casual elegance. As part of the renovation, the bar area took on a sportier feeling with large screen televisions. It also morphed into a wine bar overseen by Mediterra’s two sommeliers. An extensive wine list includes 20 wines for $20 per bottle. Carmen Mauceri oversees the Beach Club’s culinary team of executive chef Chris Fragola and sous chef Shane Dorey, both of whom are certified chefs de cuisine. The chefs vary the menu on a regular basis while retaining the diners’ favorites, such as seared ahi tuna with a glass-noodle stir fry and a smoked-chicken pasta offering with sun-dried tomatoes. In addition to casual indoor and al fresco dining, the Beach Club offers an elevated swimming pool with an expansive sundeck and cabana service for beach chairs and umbrellas that enhance members’ enjoyment of the Club’s pristine beach and the Azure-toned waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
Mediterra’s Sports Club is situated adjacent to the clubhouse at the community’s piazza. A fitness center that was expanded by 3,000 square feet last year is outfitted with state-of-the-art equipment and offers fitness classes ranging from aerobics to Zumba, wellness programs, personal trainers, aesthetic services, three spa rooms, and a swimming pool with a sunning deck and smoothie bar. The Club’s tennis program is acknowledged as one of the top programs in the country. Tennis facilities include a dedicated tennis pro shop and eight Har-Tru tennis courts, including a spectator court. More than 600 members enjoy competing on the Club’s bocce ball courts. Historically themed parks and water features that are unique to Mediterra are connected by nearly eight miles of walking and biking trails. Always ahead of the latest trends, The Club recently introduced three Pickleball courts that immediately became popular destinations.
