The most prestigious private golf community in Naples — three 18-hole championship courses (Club, Park, and Estuary), a 30,000+ sq ft wellness center, full-service spa, resort pools, and multiple dining venues. Membership is mandatory for all buyers. The initiation has historically run ~$150,000–$175,000 with annual dues of ~$16,000–$22,000/yr — separate from the community HOA. Central Naples location puts residents 8 minutes from 5th Avenue South and 12 minutes from the Gulf beaches. No CDD.

Two Greg Norman-designed championship courses that host PGA Tour and LPGA events — the QBE Shootout and CME Group Tour Championship. Managed by the Ritz-Carlton Golf Resort, which means five-star hospitality standards applied to the entire club operation. Mandatory membership for resident buyers. Luxury condominiums, villas, and estates across multiple neighborhoods. Ritz-Carlton spa, dining, and fitness programming accessible to members.

Two Arthur Hills-designed championship courses with one of the largest clubhouses in SWFL (~100,000 sq ft). Quail West has a partial mandatory structure — some membership tier is required at purchase, though the specific requirement should be confirmed with the club. Large estate lots and custom homes distinguish Quail West from more densely built North Naples golf communities. The 100,000 sq ft clubhouse includes multiple dining venues, fitness, spa, tennis, and pickleball.

Two Tom Fazio-designed championship courses — among the finest in SWFL — with optional membership available to all residents. The optional beach club provides private Gulf beach access for members who add that program. Mediterra's à la carte structure allows buyers to access the community at base HOA level and add golf and/or beach club separately. 1,700+ acres with lakes, preserves, and a range of home types from coach homes to custom estates.

A Greg Norman and Pete Dye-designed course that is consistently cited as one of the most scenically distinctive in Naples. Talis Park has a contemporary aesthetic that stands apart from the traditional Mediterranean design of most Naples golf communities — Tuscan-inspired architecture, a lively village center with casual and fine dining, and a social programming calendar that skews more active and younger than older established clubs. Optional golf membership. Condos, villas, and single-family homes from $500K to $9M+.

A smaller, boutique golf community in North Naples featuring a P.B. Dye-designed course known for its playability and natural beauty. Optional membership. The intimate scale of Olde Cypress — fewer homes, less development density — creates a quieter, more private atmosphere than the large master-planned golf communities. Elegant clubhouse with dining, fitness, tennis, and a social calendar. Single-family homes and villas on golf course and lake lots.

A true private club community built around a Robert Trent Jones Jr.-designed course — one of the more technically demanding layouts in Naples. Kensington is deliberately small and private, with a limited membership that keeps the course uncrowded and the community intimate. Single-family homes, villas, and carriage homes surround the fairways. Tennis, pickleball, fitness, and a full social calendar. Membership structure should be confirmed directly with the club.

The Quarry is built around both an 18-hole Hurdzan-Fry golf course and a 500-acre motorboat-friendly freshwater lake — one of the only communities in Naples that genuinely combines golf and lake boating. Optional golf membership. The beach club provides lake beach access, marina, and waterfront dining. The combination attracts buyers who want golf but whose partner or family also wants an active water lifestyle. Homes from $500K to $2.5M+.

A 4,000-acre master-planned community in South Naples with the Arthur Hills-designed Creek Course as an optional membership. The Tarpon Club beach and marina program on Marco Island is a second optional add-on unique to Fiddler's Creek. Base Club and Spa (54,000 sq ft) included with all ownership. CDD applies. Optional structure means non-golfers access the full resort campus without golf costs. Full community overview on our Fiddler's Creek guide page.
