About Tamarindo
Tamarindo is a gated community of approximately 251 single-family homes located along Sabal Palm Road just east of Collier Boulevard in Southeast Naples. Developed by D.R. Horton, the community is characterized by newer construction, landscaped streets, sidewalks, lakes and more than 24 acres of natural preserve areas. Homes were built beginning in the early 2020s and offer contemporary designs with attached garages and screened outdoor living spaces, while individual properties may feature lake, preserve or landscaped views and some include private swimming pools. Tamarindo’s association-maintained lawn care and irrigation also provide a lower-maintenance approach to single-family homeownership while allowing residents to enjoy the privacy and outdoor space of a detached residence.
Tamarindo combines that residential setting with a centralized amenity area offering a clubhouse, swimming, fitness, pickleball, bocce and gathering spaces. The community’s location is another important part of its appeal, particularly for buyers who want convenient access to both Naples and Marco Island. Collier Boulevard provides connections north toward I-75 and south toward U.S. 41 and Marco Island, while shopping, dining, healthcare and everyday services are readily accessible throughout the surrounding area. Tamarindo offers this combination without a mandatory golf or country club membership, creating an option for buyers who want a newer gated community and recreational amenities without a club-centered lifestyle.
