Vivid Shores Amenities
The centerpiece of Vivid Shores is its 13-acre lakefront amenity campus, designed to take advantage of the community’s distinctive waterfront setting. The approximately 15,000-square-foot clubhouse incorporates social and activity spaces along with an approximately 2,500-square-foot fitness center, movement studio and dedicated wellness facilities. Locker facilities with infrared saunas add to the wellness experience, while club and flex rooms provide space for activities and gatherings. A private wine-tasting lounge and additional indoor and outdoor gathering areas broaden the social experience, while the lakeside Brisa Grille provides restaurant, bar and outdoor dining options overlooking the water.
Outdoor recreation extends well beyond the clubhouse. An approximately 5,000-square-foot heated resort pool, resistance pool and surrounding lounge areas provide options for both relaxation and exercise. Eight pickleball courts, including four covered courts, two tennis courts and two bocce courts support an active racquet-sports lifestyle, while an event lawn, dog park, outdoor lounges and fireside gathering areas provide additional spaces to enjoy the community. Walking trails and golf-cart-friendly pathways connect the residential neighborhoods with the central amenities and waterfront areas.
The lakes themselves are among Vivid Shores’ most distinctive amenities. Community boat docks and direct lake access allow residents to enjoy boating and water recreation within the neighborhood, creating an experience that differs considerably from a community where lakes function primarily as scenic retention ponds. Vivid Shores’ location off Bonita Grande Drive in Bonita Springs provides convenient access to I-75 and destinations throughout Southwest Florida, while Bonita Beach, downtown Bonita Springs, shopping, dining, healthcare and Southwest Florida International Airport are within convenient reach. For buyers seeking a gated Bonita Springs community centered around lakefront living, boating, newer single-family homes and extensive resort-style amenities without mandatory golf membership, Vivid Shores offers a particularly distinctive approach to the Southwest Florida lifestyle.
