Pelican Landing is a 2,365-acre gated master-planned community in Bonita Springs, developed by WCI Communities in two phases: Phase I began 1989, Phase II in the late 1990s with high-rise residential towers, buildout completed 2006. The community is bordered by Coconut Road to the north, Spring Creek to the south, and Estero Bay to the west. Home sizes span 1,203 to 8,525 sqft across more than 25 distinct neighborhoods, with three guard-gated entries.

The community is anchored by Pelican’s Nest Golf Club ("The Nest") — 36 holes of Tom Fazio-designed championship golf across the Hurricane Course and Gator Course, later ranked the #3 Best Public Golf Course in the U.S. by Golf Digest. Other community assets include a 14,900 sqft community center, an 18-court tennis and pickleball center, a sailing center, and a private island Beach Park accessible by boat shuttle — an asset that’s genuinely unique vs. peer Bonita Springs communities.

For bathroom remodels, Pelican Landing covers a broad quality spectrum. Low-rise condo and coach-home neighborhoods (Bayhaven, Cypress Island, Southbridge carriage homes) work at Good tier with $26K–$34K budgets. Single-family neighborhoods (Longlake, Ashford Park, Sanctuary, Tierra Santa, Ridgewood Park) work at Better tier with $40K–$52K budgets. Spring Creek Estates and Phase II high-rise penthouses work at Best tier with $56K–$64K budgets to match the estate-scale 3,500–8,525 sqft floor plates. Every Pelican Landing renovation factors in neighborhood-specific HOA approvals (25+ separate processes), Pelican Landing master ARC for exterior changes, and Lee County permitting. Renovated master baths drive a measurable 12–18% premium against original-condition comps. Sister-community status with The Colony Golf & Bay Club inside the same gates provides residents access to extended amenity networks.
