Luxury living for various budgets in Fiddler’s Creek
The Fiddler’s Creek community in Naples, made up of four distinct neighborhoods, features luxury homes alongside nature preserves, a resort-style pool and spa, a nationally ranked golf course and more. “This community is head-and-shoulders above a lot of other gated communities,” says Shamus Jones, a Realtor with Premier Sotheby’s International Realty. Residents can dine at community restaurants, take advantage of a busy social calendar and even join a club that gives access to a private beach in Marco Island and a marina on the Isles of Capri. The four neighborhoods here are Callista II, Dorado, Oyster Harbor and Hidden Cove. Jones says that while the area’s multimillion-dollar estates attract a lot of CEO retirees, condo options starting around $300,000 help clear the way for others to live there as well.

Coach, single-family and custom estate homes
Scenery alone brings buyers to Fiddler’s Creek. “Everybody comments when they drive in that it’s beautiful,” Jones says. “Fiddler’s Creek has put a lot of money into their landscaping over the years.” Housing options include coach, single-family and custom estate homes in four communities. Callista II features four floor plans with three-bedroom Mediterranean coach homes with water views. Dorado features three-bedroom modern coach homes. Oyster Harbor features two- and three-bedroom plans. Hidden Cove is home to custom estates with golf, water and nature preserve views. Prices vary greatly. $300,000 to $500,000 gets buyers modest coach homes, while $500,000 to $1 million can get a larger coach home or single-family option. For $1 million to $4 million, buyers can get large, often custom single-family homes, typically with Mediterranean architecture and lanais with pools. Many homes back up to the creek, but Jones says, “If you have a private boat drop, you can’t have much more than a 10- or 12-foot boat. It’s not a boating community.” Fiddler’s Creek has a 1 out of 10 CAP Index Crime Score, well below the national average of 4.
