About Valencia Bonita
Valencia Bonita is an established 55+ gated community in Bonita Springs, located off Bonita Beach Road east of I-75. Developed by GL Homes, the community encompasses approximately 347 acres and 997 residences, offering a combination of single-family homes and attached villas surrounded by lakes, preserves and landscaped common areas. Homes were developed beginning in 2017 and offer a variety of residential sizes and configurations, with many properties featuring private swimming pools, screened outdoor living areas and lake, preserve or landscaped views. With nearly 1,000 residences, Valencia Bonita is substantial enough to support an extensive social and recreational lifestyle while retaining distinct residential neighborhoods throughout the community.
The defining feature of Valencia Bonita is its active-adult lifestyle, centered around an approximately 45,000-square-foot clubhouse and 10-acre amenity complex. Residents have access to resort-style swimming, fitness and wellness facilities, tennis, pickleball, bocce, dining, entertainment, creative spaces and an extensive schedule of clubs, classes and social activities. Unlike a traditional country club community, these amenities are part of the Valencia Bonita residential experience rather than requiring a separate golf or club membership. The community’s location also provides convenient access to Bonita Springs and Naples, including Gulf beaches, shopping, restaurants, healthcare and Southwest Florida International Airport.
