Pelican Bay is one of Naples's most distinctive places to own. Here is what defines it — the geography, the amenities, and the lifestyle that come with the address.

What Defines Pelican Bay

  • A master-planned community in North Naples spanning roughly 2,300 acres.
  • Residents access two private beachfront facilities via a tram through a 570-acre nature preserve.
  • Housing ranges from condominiums to estate homes, including high-rise towers with Gulf views.
  • Amenities include a tennis center and fitness facilities managed by the community foundation.

The Setting

What sets Pelican Bay apart is the combination of location and amenities rather than any single feature. For buyers weighing where in Southwest Florida to put down roots, the right neighborhood comes down to how you want to spend your days — on the water, on the golf course, or steps from dining and the beach.
