Where Lely Island Estates sits in Lely Resort prices

By county median sale price, Lely Island Estates ranks 5 of 9, between Mustang Island and Masters Reserve, among the nine Lely Resort neighborhoods we cover.

What is Lely Island Estates like?

Lely Island Estates is a neighborhood of 185 single-family homes and six homesites, built from 1991 to 2025 under a declaration recorded June 26, 1990, which makes it one of the first neighborhoods in Lely Resort. It has no gate and no required club, and its association publishes its budget. The name draws about 20 searches a month.

The Lely Island Estates association

Lely Island Estates is run by the Lely Island Estates Neighborhood Association (Sunbiz N39423), declaration recorded June 26, 1990, under the Lely Resort Master Property Owners Association.

Gate and access

Ungated. Lely Resort's own collector roads are open; only some neighborhoods are gated, and four, Classics Plantation Estates, Lakoya, Hawthorne and Tasori, have staffed guard houses.

The published fee

The Lely Island Estates Neighborhood Association's 2026 adopted budget sets the fee at $599 a quarter for a home and $269 a quarter for a lot, down from $702 a quarter. The budget carries the master fee as a $22,806 line, which works out to the master's $29.85 a quarter on each of 191 properties.

Sign rules

The association restricts for-sale signs, so a listing here may have no sign in the yard. Use the listing search above instead.

Homesites

Six of the 191 properties are lots. A lot pays the lower $269 quarterly fee until a home is built.

Is Players Club membership required in Lely Island Estates?

No. Players Club and Spa membership is optional in Lely Island Estates. The club's covenant covers homes and homesites sold after February 10, 2003 plus certain earlier sites, and the club's membership page is the place to confirm a specific home before you write an offer. Data updated: October 2026.

What the Players Club costs

For 2026 the Players Club charges a $10,000 refundable deposit that is not transferable, $6,400 in annual dues plus 6 percent Florida sales tax ($6,784), a 20 percent service charge on spa and food and beverage, and a $375 transfer fee plus tax for each lease of 30 days or more.

What the Players Club offers

A 6,000 square foot fitness center, a spa, three pools, 13 Har-Tru tennis courts, four pickleball courts and four bocce courts. It is not a golf club; golf at Lely Resort is separate.

What does it cost to own in Lely Island Estates?

The yearly cost of a Lely Island Estates home is the Lely CDD assessment of $997, the Lely Island Estates association fee, which already includes the Lely Resort master fee of $29.85 a quarter, the Players Club where the home requires it, and property tax. Data updated: October 2026.

The Lely CDD

The Lely Community Development District charges $997 per home for 2026-27, the same as 2025-26, and its audited statements for the year ended September 30, 2025 report no bond debt. It pays for irrigation water, water management, street lighting, landscaping and access control, and appears on the county tax bill.

The master association

The Lely Resort Master Property Owners Association charges $29.85 a quarter in 2026, collected inside each neighborhood's fee. It also has a $500 capital contribution, which its roster marks for some neighborhoods and not others; ask which applies to the address.

The Lely Island Estates association fee

The association publishes it: $599 a quarter for a home and $269 a quarter for a lot in 2026, down from $702 a quarter.

Property taxes

Lely Resort is in unincorporated Collier County, so the bill carries the unincorporated general fund (0.6844 mills) and the Greater Naples Fire Rescue District (2.0000 mills) on top of the county and school levies, plus the CDD line.

Estoppel certificates at closing

Expect an estoppel certificate from the Lely Island Estates association and the master association, and from the Players Club where the home carries its covenant. Budget for each in your closing costs.

What to ask for before an offer

Ask for the seller's last tax bill, the last two association statements, the Players Club status of the address and any capital contribution or transfer fee due at closing.

Golf near Lely Island Estates

Golf is not bundled with a Lely Island Estates home. Lely Resort has three 18-hole courses: Flamingo Island and The Mustang are public daily-fee courses run by American Golf, and The Classics is a private club with its own membership. You can play the public courses without joining anything. Data updated: October 2026.

Flamingo Island

Robert Trent Jones Sr., 1989, par 72, 7,095 yards, public daily fee.

The Mustang

Lee Trevino, 1996, par 72, 7,230 yards, public daily fee, regrassed and reopened at the end of 2017.

The Classics

Gary Player, 1990, par 72, 6,714 yards, a private club with Full Golf, Executive, Social Sport and Social tiers.

How to check one address
