About Arboretum

Arboretum is a gated, low-maintenance community in Naples’ Bayshore Arts District, offering a mix of coach homes and paired villas in a location that feels distinctly different from many of Naples’ larger master-planned developments. Developed by Mattamy Homes, the community features coastal, Craftsman and West Indies-inspired architecture surrounded by lakes, landscaping and pedestrian-friendly streets. Residences generally offer two bedrooms, with select plans incorporating additional flex space, and include attached one- or two-car garages, open living areas and screened lanais or balconies.

One of Arboretum’s strongest advantages is its location. The community sits near the Naples Botanical Garden and is convenient to Celebration Park, the Bayshore Arts District’s restaurants, galleries and waterfront destinations, as well as Fifth Avenue South, downtown Naples and Gulf beaches. This gives residents easy access to both everyday conveniences and some of the more eclectic cultural, dining and recreational experiences found in Naples.

Arboretum is well suited to buyers who appreciate newer construction and lower-maintenance living but do not need a large country club or extensive recreational complex. Its relatively modest amenity package complements the neighborhood rather than defining it, leaving the surrounding Bayshore area and proximity to downtown as important parts of the lifestyle.

Why People Like the Arboretum Community

  • Bayshore Arts District Location: Arboretum is close to Naples Botanical Garden, Celebration Park and the growing collection of restaurants, arts, entertainment and waterfront destinations found throughout the Bayshore area.
  • Low-Maintenance Living: Condominium ownership and community-provided services reduce many of the exterior maintenance responsibilities associated with a traditional single-family home.
  • Coach Homes and Paired Villas: The mix of residence styles provides options for buyers who want something more residential in feel than a traditional condominium building.
  • First- and Second-Floor Choices: Coach-home designs include both ground-floor and upper-level residences, allowing buyers to choose between single-level ground-floor access or elevated living.
  • Attached Garages: Depending on the residence, homes include either one- or two-car attached garages, providing private parking and additional storage.
  • Close to Downtown Naples: Fifth Avenue South, Naples beaches and the broader downtown area are just a short drive from the community.

What You Need to Know About Living in Arboretum

  • Residence Type Matters: Arboretum includes different home configurations, so buyers should understand whether they are considering a coach home or paired villa and how the ownership and maintenance responsibilities apply to that particular residence.
  • Coach Homes Range in Size: The original coach-home collection ranges from approximately 1,341 to 1,721 square feet, with both first- and second-floor designs. Garage size and the presence of flex space also vary by plan.
  • Second-Floor Living Is Part of Some Plans: Buyers who prefer to avoid stairs should pay close attention to the individual layout, as some residences have their primary living space on the upper level.
  • Association Responsibilities Should Be Reviewed: Arboretum is designed around low-maintenance ownership, but buyers should review current condominium and association documents to understand exactly what is maintained, insured or paid for through community fees.
  • Association Rules Apply: Rental policies, pet restrictions and exterior modifications are governed by the applicable community documents and should be verified for the specific residence.
  • Views Vary by Location: Depending on building and orientation, residences may overlook lakes, landscaping or other portions of the neighborhood, making location within Arboretum worth considering when comparing properties.

Arboretum Amenities

Arboretum offers a comfortable collection of shared amenities without the scale of a large resort or country club. The community’s central recreation area includes a heated swimming pool and spa, fitness center, covered terrace and cabana areas, along with outdoor gathering spaces for relaxing and socializing.

Additional features include a fire pit, grilling area, landscaped sidewalks and a dog park, creating opportunities to spend time outdoors without leaving the neighborhood. The gated entrance and maintained common areas complement the community’s low-maintenance residential character.

The amenities are intentionally manageable, which is part of Arboretum’s appeal. Rather than building the lifestyle around golf, restaurants or an expansive clubhouse complex, the community provides the everyday amenities many residents use most while its Bayshore location puts a much broader collection of Naples attractions close at hand.
