Pelican Bay residents enjoy access to fine dining, luxury retail, private golf courses and white sand beaches with panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico. The area's private beach clubs are also a significant draw. "There are three beach clubs in Pelican Bay. If you purchase real estate, you are automatically a member of two of them," says Broker Associate Shannon Lefevre, who sells homes in the area with John R. Wood Properties. "Bay Colony, the most exclusive neighborhood in Pelican Bay, gives you access to all three." Lefevre, who has lived in Pelican Bay since 2006, says that many of the area's homebuyers are recent empty nesters who want a full-time or part-time residence that their children and grandchildren will enjoy visiting for years to come. But the community's highly rated schools also attract young families. "Pelican Bay just appeals to such a wide range of people," Lefevre says. "I always get so many requests to show houses in Pelican Bay regardless of the Naples' real estate trends."

Homeowners can access fitness centers, private clubs, golf courses and spas. Two-bedroom lakefront condos from the 1990s sell for between $800,000 and $1 million. Three-bedroom early-2000s condos sell for between $1.1 million and $2.2 million. Homebuyers can purchase three-bedroom Mediterranean-style 1980s homes for between $3.4 million and $4.6 million.

"After Hurricane Ian in 2022, many of the houses were flooded in similarly priced communities like Park Shore, but I don't think any single-family houses in Pelican Bay ended up under water," Lefevre says.
