This page is the Island Walk section of our Naples homes for sale and communities guide, and it sits beside our list of all Naples communities. It shows how to search Island Walk listings, what homes sold for on the county record, which homes the community holds, what an owner pays the association and the county, and the amenity, rule, flood, school and distance facts that come with an address here. Island Walk is one community with one association, so the sections below divide it by product type and by recorded phase, not by neighborhood. It is the Collier County community in North Naples: it is not IslandWalk at West Villages in Venice, which is in Sarasota County, and it is not Island Walk in North Port, and no fact about either appears on this page.

Island Walk homes for sale right now

Island Walk homes for sale are linked below, filtered to the MLS subdivision names Island Walk and Islandwalk so neighboring North Naples communities stay out. Every search is sorted by price, high to low, and shows no listing count, because active inventory changes daily. Data updated: October 2026.

Listing data refreshes from the MLS throughout the day, and a listing shown may already be under contract. For builder-new homes in other Naples communities, see our Naples new construction guide, because no builder is selling new homes inside Island Walk, and for golf settings across the city see Naples golf homes for sale.

Search two-bedroom homes

The all-homes search above returns every bedroom count, and the bedroom filter on the search page narrows it to two bedrooms. We do not link a two-bedroom search because we have not confirmed the bedroom key the search tool uses, and a wrong key would return nothing. In DiVosta’s archived plan sheet, the Capri III is the two-bedroom plan: two bedrooms, two baths and a den, with a two-car garage. A listing’s bedroom count can differ from the builder’s plan name when a den is counted as a bedroom, so read each listing for the plan name and the garage.

Search three-bedroom homes

The same all-homes search covers three-bedroom homes once you set the bedroom filter to three. DiVosta’s archived sheets show two three-bedroom plans, the Oakmont, which adds a den, and the two-story Aruba with two and a half baths, which the Declaration calls a townhome. The four-bedroom Carlyle, whose sheet offers an optional fifth bedroom, sits above them. Ask for the plan name on any listing, because the plan decides the garage, the party walls and the lot.

Search under and over $500,000

The two price searches split the whole community at $500,000, which sits just below the county’s 12-month median of $520,000. In the county’s latest 12 months, 43 of 105 sales, about 41 percent, closed under $500,000, and in the prior 12 months only 12 of 69, about 17 percent, did. Use the first search to see the lower end of the market and the second for the rest; both stay inside Island Walk.

What the MLS calls Island Walk

In the Southwest Florida MLS the community appears as Island Walk, and some records spell it Islandwalk as the county and the association do, so the searches above use both spellings. The county names it ISLANDWALK across 12 recorded plats, and the association’s legal name is Island Walk Homeowners Association, Inc. The ZIP code is not a search filter because 34119 also covers the Vineyards, Olde Cypress, Saturnia Lakes, Indigo Lakes and Heritage Greens, and The Cove, a separate condominium community inside the same county planned development, has its own association.

What have Island Walk homes sold for?

Island Walk homes sold at a median of $520,000 on the Collier County record: 105 qualified sales in the 12 months to October 2, 2026, from $350,000 to $955,000. The count is odd, so the median is one recorded price, the 53rd of 105. Data updated: October 2026.

Record and window	Sales	Median	Low	High
County, 12 months to Oct 2, 2026	105	$520,000	$350,000	$955,000
County, prior 12 months (Oct 2, 2024 to Oct 2, 2025)	69	$600,000	$360,000	$1,149,500
County, 24 months to Oct 2, 2026	174	$550,500	$350,000	$1,149,500

Sources: Collier County Property Appraiser public data bundle, qualified improved sales over $1,000, newest qualified Collier sale in the index dated October 2, 2026. The 12-month and prior-12-month counts are odd, so each median is one recorded price; the 24-month count is even, so its median is the mean of the middle pair. Recorded sales reach the roll with a lag, so the newest weeks are the least complete, and the newest Island Walk sale in the list is dated August 31, 2026.

Last 12 and 24 months

The 12-month median of $520,000 is $80,000, about 13 percent, below the prior 12 months’ $600,000, while the number of sales rose from 69 to 105, an increase of about 52 percent. The 105 sales equal about 5.7 percent of the community’s 1,856 lots. Builder-direct sales, which the county defines as a parcel’s first recorded sale within one year of its year built, were 0 in both the latest 12 months and the latest 24 months, so all 105 sales were resales. The five highest sales in the window were $955,000 in Phase 5A, $896,000 in Phase 2, $850,000 in Phase 6 and in Phase 5B, and $849,000 in Phase 6, and the lowest were $350,000 in the Towncenter plat, $360,000 in Phase 3 and $370,000 twice in Phase 7. The county does not record whether a sale was a cash sale, a home with a pool or a lake-view lot, so a median describes what closed and not what any one home is worth.

Price bands

In the latest 12 months, 43 of the 105 county sales, about 41 percent, closed under $500,000, and 10 closed at $800,000 or more. Over 24 months the share under $500,000 was 55 of 174, about 32 percent. The bands below show the 12-month, prior-12-month and 24-month counts.

County price band	Sales, 12 months	Sales, prior 12 months	Sales, 24 months

By phase and plat

Island Walk’s county roll names 12 recorded plats, and the sample on any one plat is small, so read plat medians as a description of what closed and not as a price for the plat. Phases 2, 5A, 5B and 6 have the highest 12-month medians, $670,000 to $709,350, and Phases 4, 7, 7A and the Towncenter plat have the lowest, $431,250 to $495,000. Phases 5A and 7A had only 4 sales each in the latest 12 months, so those medians are the mean of the middle two of four prices. We do not explain the gap by lake views or home size, because the county record does not support either reason.

Plat (county name)	Sales, 12 months	12-month median	Sales, 24 months	24-month median
Phase 1	5	$480,000	10	$498,750

How have Island Walk prices moved since 2016?

Island Walk’s annual median sale price rose from $325,000 in 2016 to a peak of $620,000 in 2023 on the Collier County record, then settled at $597,500 in 2025 and stands at $520,000 on 81 qualified sales in 2026 through October 2. Data updated: October 2026.

The flat years from 2016 to 2020

From 2016 to 2020 the annual median stayed between $320,000 and $370,500 on 86 to 127 sales a year. The 2018 median of $370,500 on 111 sales was the high point of those five years, and 2019 fell back to $335,000 on 99 sales. The highest single sale in the period was $669,900 in 2016, so the range was narrow compared with later years. The 2020 median of $361,000 on 127 sales was the last year before the climb.

The climb from 2021 to 2023

The median jumped from $361,000 in 2020 to $442,500 in 2021 on 152 sales, the busiest year in the table, then to $580,000 in 2022 on 107 sales, a 31 percent rise in one year, and to $620,000 in 2023 on 77 sales. The 2023 median was about 91 percent above 2016’s $325,000. The count of sales fell by half from the 2021 peak while the price kept rising, which is the pattern of fewer homes changing hands at higher prices.

The softening since 2023

After the 2023 peak the median dipped to $560,000 in 2024 on 83 sales, rose to $597,500 in 2025 on 78 sales and sits at $520,000 on 81 sales in 2026 through October 2. That 2026 figure is about 16 percent below the 2023 peak, and the low in 2026 is $360,000 against $425,000 in 2023. The year is not complete, and recorded sales from the last weeks of the window are still reaching the roll, so the 2026 row can still move.

Which homes are in Island Walk?

Island Walk’s 1,856 homes are DiVosta-built attached villas, two-story townhomes and detached single-family homes on 12 recorded plats around 30 lakes, built from the late 1990s into the early 2000s and sold today only as resales. The county codes all 1,856 as single-family use, with no condominium parcels. Data updated: October 2026.

DiVosta and PulteGroup

DiVosta Homes built Island Walk. Pulte Home Corp. bought the DiVosta company in 1998, and DiVosta is now a PulteGroup brand, so the community was built under Pulte ownership of the DiVosta name. Otto “Buz” DiVosta formed the Burg and DiVosta company in 1975, and the builder’s signature method is a cast-in-place concrete wall system that its archived Island Walk sheets label the Moduplex Building System. DiVosta no longer sells here: the county shows 0 builder-direct sales in the latest 12 and 24 months, and the builder’s Island Walk plan pages survive only as archived 2001 pages, so there is no current builder inventory or price sheet to quote. DiVosta’s own sites use conflicting company-age claims, so this page makes none.

Home types and sizes from builder documents

Three product types appear in the association’s About page and Declaration: attached villas, two-story townhomes and detached single-family homes, in two-, three- and four-bedroom European-style designs, many with lake views. The sizes below come from DiVosta’s archived plan sheets, captured on May 9, 2001, and from no other source. They are the builder’s 2001 air-conditioned areas, so do not set them against the heated areas in an MLS listing or the county file, which are measured differently and can differ for the same home. We print no count of homes by plan, because the splits published by third parties disagree and none comes from a recorded or association document.

Plan	Bedrooms and baths (builder sheet)	Garage	Air-conditioned area (2001 sheet)	Note
Capri III	2 bedrooms, 2 baths and a den	2-car, 435 sq ft	1,522 sq ft	Lanai 160 sq ft
Oakmont	3 bedrooms, 2 baths and a den	2-car, 437 sq ft	1,995 sq ft	Lanai 198 sq ft
Carlyle	4 bedrooms (optional fifth), 3 baths	2-car, 437 sq ft	2,507 sq ft	Lanai 180 sq ft
Aruba	3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, two stories	2-car, 435 sq ft	1,826 sq ft (1,841 with the bay-window side)	The Declaration calls Aruba units townhomes
Catalina	Not found	One-car garage per the Declaration	Not found	Named in the association’s paint documents; no builder sheet found

Sources: DiVosta plan sheets archived May 9, 2001; the association’s Architectural Review page, which lists paint documents for Catalina, Carlyle, Oakmont, Capri and Aruba; and the Declaration, which gives Catalina a one-car garage and every other plan a two-car garage.

The phases and the Town Center plat

The county roll lists 1,953 parcels under the Island Walk plat names, of which 1,856 are single-family use, the same number as the Declaration’s 1,856 numbered lots. The other 97 are not homes. Phase 4 is the largest plat with 360 parcels, and Phases 1A and 1B are the smallest at 9 and 8. The Towncenter plat holds the Town Center and 88 single-family parcels. Streets follow an island theme, including Eleuthera Way, Bermuda Lane, Cayman Lane, Exuma Way and Anguilla Way, around the spine road, Islandwalk Boulevard.

Plat (county name)	Parcels	Single-family parcels
Phase 4	360	343
Phase 7	308	293
Phase 3	294	277
Phase 1	245	234

Phase 7A	92	86
Phase 5B	63	59

Phase 1B	8	8
Total	1,953	1,856

The 97 parcels that are not homes break down as 28 common-area and recreation parcels, 28 rivers, lakes and submerged parcels, 21 vacant residential parcels, 14 rights-of-way, 3 county-owned parcels and 3 parcels the state revenue department codes as other uses. Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data bundle, as loaded October 28, 2026, and the Declaration, section 1.24, which defines the community as 1,856 numbered lots.

Construction notes from listing remarks

Listing remarks are supporting evidence, not builder statements. One listing portal describes the homes as built of poured concrete, which matches the builder’s documented cast-in-place concrete method, and the county roll reports reinforced concrete construction for 1,833 of the 1,854 homes it describes, a figure carried from our September 2026 county review. The same portal says townhome garages are detached with rear-entry alleys, which no builder or association document confirms. A permit set and a wind mitigation inspection decide what any one home is built of, and an original roof on a home from this era would be more than two decades old.

What does it cost to own an Island Walk home?

Owning an Island Walk home costs a quarterly association assessment that the 2026 adopted budget works out to about $1,641 per lot, an average we derived, plus a $1,500 capital contribution paid by the buyer at closing, county property taxes and one solid waste assessment, and no community development district charge. Data updated: October 2026.

Cost	Amount	Basis
Association assessment, 2026 budget	$12,186,195 a year, about $6,566 per lot a year or $1,641 a quarter	Average we derived: the adopted budget divided by 1,856 lots; not a billed rate
Due dates	January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1	New homeowner packet, March 25, 2026
Capital contribution	$1,500, paid by the buyer at closing	Declaration section 6.9, set by a 2021 amendment
New homeowner application	$150 for an individual or married couple, $200 for roommates; decision within 5 business days	Form reviewed October 1, 2026

Solid waste assessment	$261.91 on a sampled 2025 tax bill	County rate resolution

The association assessment and the budget

The association does not print a per-home assessment on any page we read. The 2026 adopted budget, approved October 22, 2025, raises $12,186,195 a year in assessments, up about 4.6 percent from $11,647,312 in 2025, and the Declaration charges the base assessment equally to all 1,856 lots. The 2026 adopted budget works out to about $6,566 per lot, an average we derived, not a billed rate; the estoppel certificate states the actual assessment. That is about $1,641 a quarter, due January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, with a late charge after 30 days of the lesser of 10 percent of the unpaid quarterly assessment or the legal maximum, plus interest. Paying through the portal costs $3.95 by bank account or 3.5 percent of the balance by card.

What the dues include

The quarterly assessment covers basic cable television and 300 Mbps internet, lawn mowing, irrigation, pest control and fertilization on every lot, common-area landscaping, roads, street lights, lake management, the gated entry, the Town Center amenities, professional management and a reserve transfer. We found no separate club, golf or equity fee in the budget, Declaration or packet. The budget shows where the money goes, and the per-lot figures below are averages we derived by dividing each line by 1,856 lots.

2026 budget line	Annual amount	Per lot per year
Landscape contract	$1,867,439	about $1,006
Insurance	$784,973 (2025: $939,269)	about $423
Access control	$332,381	about $179
Lakes	$312,753	about $169
Irrigation contract	$225,228, plus $385,000 of irrigation repairs	about $121 for the contract
Street light electricity	$160,896	about $87
Cable television master contract	More than $1.7 million	More than $915
Reserve transfer	More than $1.5 million	More than $800
Total revenue and total expenses	$12,670,195 each	about $6,827

Source: the association’s 2026 approved budget, read October 28, 2026. The association’s insurance line fell about 16 percent from 2025, and its insurance deductible line fell from $25,000 to $15,000. Total revenue is the $12,186,195 of assessments plus $484,000 of other income, including capital contributions.

The capital contribution and the application

A buyer pays a one-time capital contribution of $1,500 at closing under section 6.9 of the Declaration, set by an amendment recorded in April 2021, and the association routes it to its Deferred Maintenance Reserve. Transfers to a spouse, lineal descendants, an estate or a wholly owned estate-planning entity, and foreclosure transfers, are exempt. The 2026 budget assumes $150,000 of this income, the equivalent of 100 transfers at $1,500, against 105 county-recorded sales in the latest 12 months. The new homeowner application costs $150 for an individual or a married couple and $200 for roommates, and the decision is emailed within 5 business days of submission, according to the form we reviewed on October 1, 2026; the portal now lists a newer form dated October 19, 2026 that we have not read, so confirm the current fee. The owner gives the association written notice at least 20 days before the closing, and the association issues its certificate within 10 business days.

No community development district

Island Walk has no community development district on the county’s district map as of September 2026, and a sampled 2025 tax bill for an Island Walk lot showed one non-ad valorem line only, the county solid waste district charge of $261.91. The association, not a district, pays for the street light electricity ($160,896 in the 2026 budget), the lakes and the landscape and gatehouse costs that a district would otherwise levy on the bill. That is the main cost difference from Verona Walk, which has a district assessment on its tax bill, as the comparison section below sets out.

Property taxes

Island Walk is in unincorporated Collier County, millage area 36. The sampled 2025 bill showed 10.5058 total mills, built from the lines below, and the 2026 preliminary roll rate for the same area is 10.402 mills; final 2026 rates arrive on the November 2026 bill. Collier’s July 14, 2026 maximum millage vote left the county general fund rate at 3.0107 and the unincorporated MSTD, water pollution control and conservation levies unchanged.

On the 2026 preliminary roll, the county’s median just value for an Island Walk home was $478,094, from $346,735 to $808,128, and 1,165 of the 1,856 homes, 62.8 percent, carried a homestead exemption. A just value is an assessment and not a price. At that median, we estimate a new homestead owner pays about $4,548 in ad valorem tax and a non-homestead buyer about $4,973, before the $261.91 solid waste line, so first-year taxes land near $4,810 for a homestead and $5,235 without. Adding the derived association average of about $6,566 puts first-year carrying cost at about $11,380 to $11,800, an estimate on carried inputs. The homestead exemption and the Save Our Homes cap reset on a purchase, so confirm any parcel on the Tax Collector’s real estate tax page.

Documents to request before you offer

Ask for the estoppel certificate, which Florida Statutes 720.30851 requires the association to issue within 10 business days of a written request: the fee may not exceed $250 with no delinquency, plus $100 if delivered within 3 business days, plus up to $150 if the account is delinquent, and the Declaration caps its own processing fee at $100 or the higher amount the law permits. The management company’s actual fee is not published. Ask also for the disclosure summary that Florida Statutes 720.401 requires before you sign, the 2026 approved budget, the recorded Declaration and every amendment from the Collier Clerk, the new homeowner packet, the consolidated rules, the September 9, 2026 lease rule, the architectural requirements, the latest reserve study, an elevation certificate or letter of map amendment for the lot, and the permits and wind mitigation inspection for the roof.

What is the Island Walk Town Center like?

The Island Walk Town Center is a 20,000 square foot association-owned hub with a resort pool, a lap pool, a fitness center, 7 tennis courts, 4 pickleball courts, bocce, croquet, lawn bowling, a putting green, a ballroom, a restaurant, a gas station, a car wash and a post office service window.

Tennis, pickleball and lawn games

Courts are reserved online through ReserveMyCourt with a fob or phone credential. The association lists weekly round robins on courts 5 and 6 and on courts 1 and 2, and pop tennis on courts 6 and 7 on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings and Monday evenings. Some agent blogs say the community has 8 lighted courts; this page uses the association’s own count of 7 tennis courts and 4 pickleball courts. Croquet is played formally on Sunday mornings in traditional white.

Pools and fitness

The resort pool and the lap pool are both open from 7 am to dusk, with diving prohibited and glass kept at least 4 feet from the pool edge. Lap swimmers take precedence in the lap pool. The fitness center opens at 4 am and closes at 10 pm, and only certified, insured, registered trainers may train clients there. The association’s rules limit the resort pool to 90 people and the lap pool to 32.

The Town Center restaurant

Casa Cotzelli is the Italian restaurant in the Town Center at 6175 Towncenter Circle, and the association lists it among the Town Center’s services. Its days and hours are posted differently in different places, so check the restaurant for current days and hours before you plan a meal there. Local news reported in June 2026 that Casa Cotzelli opened a second, public location in East Naples.

Shops, mail and services

The association says the Town Center Complex holds 13,000 square feet of retail space. The services it lists are a gas station, a car wash, an air pump, an auxiliary post office with a service window from 10 am to 2 pm Monday to Friday, Island Nails, Salon 914 and an Island Walk realty office. Residents also have an honor-system library, a “borrow one, share one” shelf with a resident computer, open 7 am to 10 pm. The county library’s Headquarters Regional Branch is at 2385 Orange Blossom Drive.

Clubs, events and the Blue Zones statement

The packet lists more than 50 clubs, groups and activities, among them a garden club that charges $20 a year, a kayak club, a car club that meets every other Wednesday, Mah Jongg, bridge, a wine society, a community emergency response team and a men’s golf league that charges $30 a year. The Fishing Club, founded in 2002, is on hiatus. Sponsored clubs use the Town Center rooms free, and owners rent them for a fee with a security deposit. The association says Island Walk is officially recognized by Blue Zones; we located the program but not the recognition document, so this page reports it as the association’s statement.

Is there golf in Island Walk?

Island Walk has no golf course, driving range or golf club inside the gate; its only golf feature is a putting green in the Town Center. The Island Walk Men’s Golf League has played since 2003 at Stoneybrook Golf Club in Estero. Data updated: October 2026.

Putting green and nearby courses

The putting green is open 9 am to 7 pm daily as a Town Center amenity. The men’s league plays Mondays in a 16-week winter season from January to April, with 32 regular players, at Stoneybrook Golf Club in Estero, a public course. For golf settings across the city, including communities that bundle a golf membership with the home, see Naples golf homes for sale. Heritage Bay in East Naples, for example, says every home carries a membership to its 27 holes with no equity deposit.

No golf membership above the association

Because there is no on-site club, an Island Walk owner pays no golf, equity or club membership fee to the association, and the dues cover the Town Center. A buyer who wants a full golf membership chooses and pays for one separately at a course elsewhere. That is the structural difference from communities such as Olde Cypress and Mediterra, which sell memberships apart from the home.

Is Island Walk gated?

Yes, Island Walk is a gated community. Residents enter through a resident lane that reads a barcode sticker, and guests use a separate guest lane at a staffed gate house where an access control officer checks visitors. The association’s documents do not state the gate’s staffing hours. Data updated: October 2026.

Residents, stickers and fobs

The barcode sticker costs $15 per vehicle and does not transfer between vehicles. A driver whose code will not read is sent to the guest lane, and repeated use of the resident lane with a degraded barcode after three written reminders carries a $50 fine per attempt. Amenity access uses a $10 fob or a $15 phone credential, up to 3 per household, and a set of three mailbox keys costs $25. The 2026 budget carries $332,381 for access control. A listing portal mentions a resident-only exit toward Logan Boulevard; the association’s documents we read do not describe it, so ask the management office.

Visitors and open houses

Owners approve guests through the Dwelling Live visitor system: up to 5 permanent guests and 5 vendors, with unlimited temporary visitors. Visitors who are not on a guest list get a visitor pass at the gate house. Open houses run Sundays from 1 to 4 pm and are registered by Thursday at 5 pm; a visitor attending a posted open house shows a driver license, which the officer enters into the GateKeeper system before issuing a one-day permit, and a real estate agent shows a business card and driver license against an address flagged For Sale or For Lease.

Is Island Walk a 55+ community?

Island Walk’s recorded governing documents contain no age restriction. We searched the association’s restated Declaration, dated October 2025, in full on October 28, 2026 and found no 55-and-over or housing-for-older-persons provision, and the bylaws and rules we reviewed add none. Data updated: October 2026.

How to confirm any age rule

Third-party websites sometimes attach age labels to communities, and this page relies only on the recorded documents. The restated Declaration is the association’s own unofficial copy, and the association says the official copy and any later amendment are recorded with the Collier Clerk, which we did not search, so ask the management office whether any amendment has been recorded since October 2025 and read the resale package before you rely on this. If you are comparing communities that publish an age rule, our Naples 55+ communities page covers those.

What are the rental rules in Island Walk?

Island Walk allows leases, but the Declaration requires a lease to run “not less than four (4) months,” and a Board rule adopted September 9, 2026 repeats that minimum and bars leases of any term through short-term vacation rental platforms. No yearly cap on leases appears in the documents reviewed. Data updated: October 2026.

The lease term

Section 13.2 of the Declaration requires a written lease, binds the tenant to the Declaration, requires the lease to say who pays assessments, and prohibits subleasing. The September 9, 2026 rule adds that leases be notarized, that leases under four months and subleases are prohibited, and that any lease issued through a short-term rental agency, travel website or vacation rental company is prohibited for any term and deemed voidable. We searched the Declaration’s Article XIII, the lease rule and the consolidated rules for a cap on the number of leases, a waiting period for new owners and a first-year rule, and found none. That absence covers only the October 2025 restated copy and the September 2026 rule.

Notice, screening and approval

The owner gives the association a Notice of Intent at least 20 days before the lease starts, with a copy of the lease, and the association issues an approval certificate within 10 business days. The tenant evaluation fee is $150 for an individual or a married couple and $200 for unmarried tenants sharing a unit, plus a $50 administrative fee for each new or amended lease. A renewal needs a new evaluation unless the tenant has lived at the same address under approved leases for five consecutive years. Under section 13.4 the association may void a lease only while assessments are delinquent or violations are uncorrected.

What a buyer who plans to rent should confirm

Confirm in the recorded Declaration and the resale package that the four-month minimum, the platform ban and the fees are current, because the restated Declaration is an unofficial copy and we did not check for later amendments at the Clerk. Ask whether any rule adopted after September 9, 2026 changes the process, and ask the management office for the current Notice of Intent and evaluation forms. Island Walk also has no yearly cap in the documents we read, but a buyer should not rely on the absence of a cap without the association’s written answer.

What other rules apply in Island Walk?

Island Walk’s other rules sit in the Declaration, the consolidated rules approved March 25, 2026 and the architectural requirements: up to three dogs and cats per home, 25 miles per hour on community streets, hurricane shutters only under stated conditions and architectural approval for exterior changes. Data updated: October 2026.

Pets

The consolidated rules allow no more than three dogs and cats per home, on a leash outdoors, and pets are not allowed in the Town Center, the pools, the fitness center or the restaurant except service animals. The Declaration prohibits pit bull terriers and any dog of violent temperament. Read the current rules before you bring a pet, because the packet text and the rules carry different dates.

Vehicles and golf carts

The speed limit on community streets is 25 miles per hour. Golf carts must be non-gasoline, registered and insured, with a driver at least 16 years old. Each resident vehicle needs the $15 gate barcode sticker.

Architectural review, roofs and shutters

Exterior changes need approval from the architectural review committee. A replacement roof uses approved tile with matching grout and painted vents, and the roof application on the February 14, 2024 form carries a $1,000 damage deposit. Permanent generators and propane tanks need approval, a licensed installer and a sound enclosure. During hurricane season, June 1 to November 30, approved shutters or panels painted white or made of a clear material may stay up, and during a county watch or warning residents may use other coverings, including plywood, which come off within 7 days after it ends. Florida Statutes 720.3035 also bars a board from denying conforming hurricane protection.

Lakes and common areas

The association owns the surface-water rights and maintains the 30 lakes, which span 18.56 miles of shoreline and about 170 acres of water. Lake use is subject to Board rules: no gasoline-powered watercraft, catch-and-release fishing only, and alligators can be present in all bodies of water. The association is not responsible for injury from lake use.

Where the rules sit in the document chain

The recorded Declaration controls, the bylaws and the Board’s rules sit beneath it, and a unit owner is bound by all three. The association’s resident council, CONCUR, is a council of neighborhood representatives created inside the Declaration, and a change to the capital contribution needs the Finance Committee, the Board and the owner representatives. The association is Island Walk Homeowners Association, Inc., filed with the state on April 29, 1998; we did not verify its current status, so check Sunbiz. Castle Group, also called Castle Management, runs the on-site office at 6155 Town Center Circle, Suite 101.

Island Walk vs Verona Walk: how do they differ?

Island Walk and Verona Walk are both gated DiVosta communities sold only as resales with a four-month lease minimum, but Island Walk has no community development district and Verona Walk does. On the county record for the 12 months to October 2, 2026, Island Walk had 105 sales at $520,000 and Verona Walk 89 at $495,000. Data updated: October 2026.

Measure	Island Walk	Verona Walk
Location	North Naples, ZIP 34119, off Vanderbilt Beach Road	East Naples, ZIP 34114, off Collier Boulevard
Homes	1,856 lots (Declaration section 1.24)	About 1,920 homes

Where Island Walk differs

Island Walk’s tax bill carries no district assessment, its association bundles cable and internet into the dues, and the Town Center holds 7 tennis courts and a restaurant inside a 20,000 square foot building. Its 12-month median is $25,000, about 5 percent, above Verona Walk’s, and its prior-12-month median was $56,000 higher, $600,000 against $544,000. Island Walk is in North Naples near Vanderbilt Beach Road, 5.7 road miles from Mercato and 7.3 from Vanderbilt Beach, and its mapped base flood elevation is about 13.2 feet, against 8.0 to 9.5 feet at Verona Walk.

Where Verona Walk differs

Verona Walk is in East Naples near the Collier Boulevard corridor, and it adds a district assessment of $744.85 to $992.85 a lot in fiscal year 2026/27 and its district bonds stood at $8,874,000 on September 30, 2025. Its application fee is $100 and its resale fee is a share of the annual assessment instead of a fixed $1,500. Its entrance is manned 24 hours a day, and its racquet amenity is six pickleball courts. Verona Walk also sells a higher share of homes under $500,000: 45 of 89 over the same 12 months, about 51 percent, against 43 of 105 at Island Walk, about 41 percent.

How to choose

The choice between the two turns on product terms, not on people. A buyer who wants no district assessment, a fixed $1,500 resale contribution, bundled cable and internet and a larger tennis and pool complex looks at Island Walk. A buyer who wants a 24-hour manned entrance, a lower application fee and a location on the Collier Boulevard side of town, and accepts a district charge on the tax bill, looks at Verona Walk. Both have four-month lease minimums, no golf on site and homes mapped mostly in Zone AH. Run the same address through the estoppel, the flood lookup and the recorded sales before comparing a specific pair of homes.

How does Island Walk compare with other North Naples communities?

Island Walk’s 12-month median of $520,000 sits in the middle of the bundled-HOA communities in this part of Naples, above Verona Walk, Village Walk and Heritage Greens and below Valencia, Indigo Lakes and Saturnia Lakes. Club-model communities, where a golf or country club membership is separate, sell at $960,000 and up. Data updated: October 2026.

Community (ZIP)	Sales, 12 months	12-month median	Note
Island Walk (34119)	105	$520,000	No golf on site; no CDD
Verona Walk (34114)	89	$495,000	CDD; resale only
Village Walk of Naples (34109)	41	$510,000	Different from VillageWalk of Bonita Springs
Heritage Greens (34119)	21	$412,500	Mostly condominiums; single-family median $542,500
Valencia Golf (34120)	20	$587,500	Golf community by name
Laurel Lakes (34119)	7	$599,000	Small sample
Indigo Lakes (34119)	12	$760,000	Same ZIP code as Island Walk
Saturnia Lakes (34119)	30	$828,250	Same ZIP code as Island Walk
Winding Cypress (34114)	42	$825,000	East Naples
Bridgewater Bay (34109)	29	$410,000	Condominium median; not comparable to single-family
Heritage Bay (34120)	18	$960,000	Club-model; plat subset

Source: Collier County Property Appraiser public data bundle, qualified improved sales over $1,000, 12 months to October 2, 2026, by recorded plat name. Medians with fewer than 12 sales describe what closed and not a price for the community. The four club-model rows are plat-name subsets of larger communities.

Village Walk of Naples

Village Walk of Naples, ZIP 34109, recorded 41 sales at a $510,000 median in the same 12 months, $10,000 below Island Walk. It is a different place from VillageWalk of Bonita Springs in Lee County, which search results often mix with it. Our page for it is not yet indexed, so we name it here without a link.

Heritage Greens and Valencia

Heritage Greens, also ZIP 34119, is mostly condominiums, so its $412,500 overall median is not a single-family comparison; its single-family median was $542,500. Valencia Golf and Country Club in ZIP 34120 recorded 20 sales at $587,500. Neither is a like-for-like match for Island Walk’s single-family-use stock, which is why we show them with their notes.

Higher-priced 34119 communities

Saturnia Lakes recorded 30 sales at $828,250 and Indigo Lakes 12 at $760,000, both in the same ZIP code as Island Walk. Laurel Lakes had only 7 sales at $599,000, too few to treat as a price. Saturnia Lakes and Indigo Lakes sit north of Island Walk on the street grid.

Club-model communities

The Vineyards, Olde Cypress, Heritage Bay and Mediterra sell at $960,000 to $2,725,000, a different tier. Heritage Bay says every home carries a membership to its 27-hole course with no equity deposit, Olde Cypress and Mediterra sell memberships separately, and the Vineyards names its country club apart from its community association. See the Vineyards, Olde Cypress and Mediterra on our site for those communities; the mix of golf and fees is what separates them from Island Walk, whose dues are the only recurring charge to the association.

Is Island Walk in a flood zone?

Island Walk’s streets and yards are mostly in FEMA Zone AH, a shallow-ponding hazard zone, as mapped in September 2026, with its lakes in Zone AE and many house pads mapped outside the hazard area. The effective panels are dated May 16, 2012, and the base flood elevation is about 13.2 feet.

Zones AH and AE and the letters of map amendment

Of 40 sample points on Island Walk streets in September 2026, 32 fell in Zone AH, 1 in Zone AE, 6 in shaded Zone X and 1 in unshaded Zone X. A grid of 989 points inside the planned development split 42.4 percent AH, 26.5 percent AE, 16.5 percent shaded X and 14.7 percent unshaded X, and the AE share lines up with the lakes. The effective panels are 12021C0213H, 0214H, 0401H and 0402H, all effective May 16, 2012. The flooding source on every Island Walk letter of map amendment is ponding and overland flow, which is a rainfall hazard and not coastal surge. FEMA’s letters list the base flood elevation at about 13.2 feet on NAVD88 for five denial letters and 13.3 to 13.4 feet at two lots, and 30 elevation certificates on file show 13.0 to 13.5 feet.

There are 50 letters of map amendment in the Island Walk area: 43 removed a structure from the hazard area because the property is only partly inundated, one removed 34 Towncenter Circle lots together, and 6 were denials. Thirty-eight of the 50 were issued from June 2012 to June 2013, right after the current maps took effect. A sample point on a street sits lower than a raised house pad, so one home can be mapped outside the hazard area while its street is in Zone AH. A lender with a federally backed mortgage requires flood insurance on a building in Zone AH unless a letter of map amendment removes it. Look up any address on the FEMA Map Service Center and ask for the lot’s elevation certificate or letter. Preliminary maps for much of Island Walk were issued March 20, 2025, Collier opened a 90-day appeal period on August 19, 2026, and the target effective date is summer 2027, subject to change; at the points we sampled the preliminary zones matched the effective ones.

Evacuation zone and storm surge

County records checked on September 23, 2026 place Island Walk in Collier County Evacuation Zone E, at the Town Center and four more points, and the community is not in the county’s Coastal High Hazard Area. Evacuation orders are issued by zone, so confirm your address on the state’s Know Your Zone lookup before storm season. NOAA’s storm surge risk maps, read September 23, 2026, show no inundation at Island Walk in a Category 1 or 2 storm, about 1 percent of the footprint wet in a Category 3, and about 75 percent in a Category 4 or 5, and these are planning worst cases, not forecasts. The west edge of the community is about 6.5 miles east of the Gulf at Vanderbilt Beach.

For history, the National Weather Service recorded Hurricane Irma’s landfall at Marco Island on September 10, 2017 as a Category 4 at 130 miles per hour, and placed Hurricane Ian’s Collier surge flooding, after the September 28, 2022 landfall at Cayo Costa, south and west of US 41 and along the Cocohatchee, Gordon and Palm rivers. Island Walk lies east of Interstate 75. We found no Island Walk damage report in a first-party source, so this page makes no damage claim. The community’s own emergency response team gathers at the Town Center after a storm.

Lakes, stormwater and who maintains them

The association holds the rights to ground water, surface water and storm water runoff within the community and operates the water management system under its South Florida Water Management District permit. Section 4.10 of the Declaration calls the lakes water retention and management areas that “are not designated solely as aesthetic features,” and notes that low groundwater or drought may leave lakes shallow. The 2026 budget carries $312,753 for lakes. Owners maintain their own homes and lots, and where two attached homes share a roof, both owners repair a damaged shared roof at joint expense within 60 days unless extended.

Insurance, roofs and building code

Florida Statutes 627.7011(5) bars an insurer from refusing to issue or renew a homeowner policy solely because a roof is under 15 years old; for a roof at least 15 years old the owner may order an inspection, and the insurer may not refuse for age alone if the inspection shows 5 or more years of useful life. Roof age is measured from the last date the whole roof was built or replaced. Citizens Property Insurance requires flood coverage on its wind policies for homes inside a special flood hazard area, including Zone AH, and outside such areas on a schedule that reaches all Citizens policies on January 1, 2027; that rule applies only to Citizens. Collier County is a Class 5 community in FEMA’s Community Rating System, a 25 percent discount on eligible National Flood Insurance Program policies. The first statewide Florida Building Code took effect March 1, 2002, so homes built before that date predate it. Each owner insures the home and must rebuild to the original plans within 12 months of damage, and the association insures the common area. We have no premium for an Island Walk home, so we publish none; the My Safe Florida Home program offers wind inspections and matching grants of up to $10,000 for homestead homes built before 2008, subject to funding.

Which schools serve Island Walk?

Island Walk addresses are zoned to Vineyards Elementary, Oakridge Middle and Barron Collier High, according to the Collier County Public Schools address lookup in September 2026, and each of the three earned an A in every school year from 2021-22 to 2025-26. Zoning can change each year, so confirm with the district.

School	Level	Grades 2021-22, 2022-23, 2023-24, 2024-25, 2025-26	Road distance from the main gate
Vineyards Elementary	K-5	A, A, A, A, A	About 1.5 miles
Oakridge Middle	6-8	A, A, A, A, A	About 3.6 miles
Barron Collier High	9-12	A, A, A, A, A	About 6.0 miles

Source: Collier County Public Schools 2026 Accountability Brief, July 1, 2026, Tables 2 to 4; zoning from the district’s address lookup, September 2026; distances from two routing engines, September 2026, free-flow. Confirm zoning with the district before relying on it.

How the zoning was checked

The district’s address lookup returned the same three schools for all 1,760 Island Walk addresses it returned, covering 44 street names for the 2026-27 school year, with no rezone flag. Some websites list Laurel Oak Elementary and Gulf Coast High for Island Walk; those schools are nearer on a map but are not the zoned schools. We did not re-run the lookup after October 28, 2026, so check the district’s Parental Choice page and school locator for your address.

State grades and what they mean

The district’s July 1, 2026 Accountability Brief reports Collier County Public Schools as an A district for the ninth straight year, ranked sixth of 67 Florida districts on points, with 51 of 52 traditional schools earning an A or B in 2025-26. A school grade is a state accountability measure and not a guarantee about any child’s experience. Barron Collier High lists Cambridge AICE, Advanced Placement, including the AP Capstone Diploma, and dual enrollment.

Choice, charter and private options

Mason Classical Academy’s Vanderbilt campus, 7170 Vanderbilt Beach Road, is a public charter school about 1.1 road miles east of the main gate, and it held an A in all five years; admission is by application and it is not the zoned school. The district’s Parental Choice page describes an out-of-zone track for documented needs and a school choice track, and it warns that approvals are not guaranteed. The federal private school locator lists 17 private schools within 10 miles of ZIP code 34119, using 2023-24 data.

Where is Island Walk, and how far is everything?

Island Walk is in North Naples, ZIP 34119, in unincorporated Collier County, with its entrance on Islandwalk Boulevard off Vanderbilt Beach Road. Interstate 75 access is about 3.7 road miles away, Vanderbilt Beach about 7.3 miles and Fifth Avenue South about 12.4 miles. Data updated: October 2026.

Hospitals, urgent care and emergency rooms

Physicians Regional Medical Center, Pine Ridge, at 6101 Pine Ridge Road, is a 177-bed hospital with a 24-hour emergency room, about 3.6 road miles from the gate. NCH’s Northeast freestanding emergency department at 15420 Collier Boulevard, which NCH calls Collier County’s only freestanding emergency department, is about 3.8 miles. NCH North Naples Hospital at 11190 Health Park Boulevard is about 6.7 miles and has a 24-hour emergency department and a pediatric emergency department, and NCH Baker Hospital, which NCH calls one of Collier County’s two comprehensive stroke centers, is about 11.9 miles. Collier Urgent Care’s Founders Square location at 8845 Founders Square Drive is about 3.5 miles, with posted hours of 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM daily as of October 28, 2026. These are approximate distances, not a statement about response times.

Interstate 75 and Vanderbilt Beach Road

Exit 111 is Immokalee Road (CR 846) and Exit 107 is Pine Ridge Road (CR 896). The on-ramp for northbound Interstate 75 at Immokalee Road is about 3.7 road miles from the main gate, 6.3 to 6.5 minutes free-flow, and the southbound ramp at Pine Ridge Road is about 3.8 miles, 6.0 to 6.8 minutes, in routing from September 2026. Vanderbilt Beach Road crosses Interstate 75 without an interchange, which is our reading of two routing engines, so confirm it with the state before relying on it. The community’s west edge is about a mile east of the interstate, so check road noise lot by lot on a satellite view.

Nearby roads and projects

Collier County opened the Vanderbilt Beach Road Extension, Collier Boulevard to 16th Street NE, on June 12, 2026, and its west end is about 0.9 mile east of Island Walk.

Saltgrass Reserve, formerly Ascend Naples, is a 208-unit rental community on 17.5 acres across Vanderbilt Beach Road, approved by Ordinance 2023-50 on October 24, 2023 and under construction since spring 2026, with leasing expected about September 2027 according to the developer. We state these as zoning and roadway facts only.

A short history of Island Walk

Island Walk was developed by DiVosta in the late 1990s, with the association incorporated in April 1998 and the original Declaration recorded in May 1998. Pulte Home Corp. had bought DiVosta that same year, and today DiVosta is a PulteGroup brand that no longer sells homes in the community.

How the community was built out

The county’s planned development approvals for Island Walk are PUD-96-14 under Ordinance 97-6, with DRI-96-1, amended by Ordinance 98-58. A 1998 Pulte securities filing names an Island Walk Development Company. The community grew across 12 recorded plats, from Phase 1 to Phase 7A and the Towncenter plat; we have not verified the plat recording dates, so this page gives no phase-by-phase build dates. DiVosta’s archived 2001 plan sheets show the Capri III, Oakmont, Carlyle and Aruba plans were on offer by then. The Cove, a 136-unit condominium community inside the same planned development, has its own association and is not part of the 1,856 lots.

The governing documents over time

The original Declaration was recorded May 13, 1998 at Official Records book 2419, page 1385. A second amended and restated Declaration was recorded in February 2012 at book 4784, page 1201, and a 2021 amendment added the $1,500 capital contribution on resales. A December 2024 amendment gave the association lawn care on every lot. Castle Group began managing the community on August 1, 2023, according to a board letter, and a By-Law amendment in April 2026 cut the board from nine directors to seven. The association restated the Declaration in October 2025 and adopted its lease rule on September 9, 2026. Those dates come from the association’s own documents and the Clerk’s recording data cited in them.

The prior 12 months had 69 sales at a $600,000 median, and the 24-month median was $550,500 on 174 sales. A median describes what closed, not what one home is worth.

How many Island Walk homes sold in the last 12 months?

Collier County recorded 105 qualified sales of Island Walk homes in the 12 months to October 2, 2026, all of them resales, which is about 5.7 percent of the community’s 1,856 lots. The prior 12 months had 69 sales, so the count rose about 52 percent while the median fell from $600,000 to $520,000.

On the county record, yes: the 12-month median to October 2, 2026 was $520,000 against $600,000 for the prior 12 months, about 13 percent lower, though 105 homes sold against 69. A median shifts with the mix of plats and plans sold, so compare homes on the same plat and street rather than the community figure.

Is Island Walk new construction?

No. Island Walk is a resale community: the county shows 0 builder-direct sales in the latest 12 months and the latest 24 months, and DiVosta’s Island Walk plan pages survive only as archived 2001 pages. Buyers purchase from current owners through the usual listing, the association’s application and the closing. For new builds elsewhere, see our Naples new construction guide.

Who built Island Walk?

DiVosta Homes built Island Walk, from the late 1990s into the early 2000s. Pulte Home Corp. bought the DiVosta company in 1998, and DiVosta is now a PulteGroup brand. The builder’s method is a cast-in-place concrete wall system. The county shows 0 builder-direct sales in the last 24 months, so every current sale is a resale.

What kinds of homes are in Island Walk?

Island Walk has attached villas, two-story townhomes and detached single-family homes, in two-, three- and four-bedroom designs, many with lake views, according to the association. The county codes all 1,856 as single-family use and shows no condominium parcels, so read each listing for the plan name, the party walls and the garage before you tour.

What are the Island Walk floor plans?

DiVosta’s archived plan sheets list the Capri III at 1,522 square feet, the Oakmont at 1,995, the Carlyle at 2,507 and the Aruba at 1,826, all air-conditioned area in 2001 marketing figures. The association’s paint documents also name a Catalina plan. Listing and county areas are measured differently, so verify any specific home’s size.

The association publishes no per-home figure. The 2026 adopted budget works out to about $6,566 per lot a year, about $1,641 a quarter, an average we derived from $12,186,195 of assessments across 1,856 lots, not a billed rate; the estoppel certificate states the actual assessment. Dues are due January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1.

According to the association’s packet, the quarterly assessment covers basic cable television, 300 Mbps internet, lawn mowing and irrigation on every lot, common-area landscaping, roads, street lights, lake management, the gated entry, the Town Center amenities, management and reserves.

Yes. Residents enter through a resident lane that reads a $15 barcode sticker, and guests are approved through the Dwelling Live visitor system or a visitor pass at a staffed gate house. Owners can list up to 5 permanent guests and 5 vendors. The documents we read do not state the gate’s staffing hours, so ask the management office.

Is Island Walk a 55+ community?

The recorded governing documents contain no age restriction. We searched the association’s restated Declaration, dated October 2025, in full on October 28, 2026 and found no 55-and-over provision. The bylaws and rules we reviewed add none. Ask the management office whether any amendment was recorded since October 2025, and read the resale package.

Tenants pay a $150 or $200 evaluation fee plus a $50 administrative fee.

Does Island Walk allow short-term rentals?

No. A Board rule adopted September 9, 2026 prohibits subleases, leases under four months and any lease issued through a short-term rental agency, travel website or vacation rental company, for any term, and deems prohibited leases voidable. Confirm the current rule with the management office and in the recorded Declaration.

Is there a limit on how many times a year an Island Walk home can be leased?

No yearly cap, waiting period or first-year rule appears in Article XIII of the restated Declaration, the September 9, 2026 lease rule or the consolidated rules we searched. That absence covers only the October 2025 restated copy and the 2026 rule, so confirm with the association in writing before you rely on it.

Does the Island Walk association approve buyers?

Not in general. Section 13.1 says the Declaration does not grant approval over buyers beyond sections 13.3 and 13.4, and the association may disapprove a sale only while assessments are delinquent or violations are uncorrected. The owner gives 20 days’ written notice, the association issues a certificate within 10 business days, and a $150 or $200 application applies.
