Lely Resort is a 2,900–4,000 acre master-planned golf and resort community in East Naples, named after Cornelius van der Lely, the Dutch inventor who purchased 25,000 acres in 1972. The three planned championship courses opened 1989–1997, but residential development stalled until Stock Development acquired 340 acres in 2001, revitalizing the community into one of Naples’ best-selling resort communities.

The community features three championship par-72 golf courses: The Classics (Gary Player, 1990, private, member-required), Flamingo Island (Robert Trent Jones Sr., 1989, semi-private) with its famous par-3 hole surrounded by water, and The Mustang (Lee Trevino, 1997, public). Amenities center on the award-winning Players Club & Spa, a 20,000 sqft facility with fitness, movie theater, pool, and tiki bar, plus tennis and pickleball courts and two Mediterranean-designed clubhouses.

For bathroom remodels, Lely Resort splits across three clear tiers. Classics Plantation Estates operates at Best-tier commissioned vanities with book-matched natural stone and full wet rooms. Mid-tier single-family (Majors, Lakoya, Masters Reserve, Moorgate Point, Tiger Island Estates, Lely Island Estates) centers on Better-tier primary suite transformations. Coach homes and condos (Ole, Mystic Greens, Alden Woods, Hawthorne, Sunstone, Legacy, Signature Club, Tasori, Player’s Cove) focus on Good-tier refreshes. The community’s broad price spectrum — $200K entry to $3M+ luxury — creates a bath ROI opportunity at every neighborhood tier, coordinated with the master HOA plus sub-association review.
