About 850 one-story GL homes around a ~43,000 sq ft clubhouse, with no CDD bond on the tax bill. I’m Nick Nolan, Florida REALTOR® — and my own front door is inside these gates. This site gives you the whole picture, numbers first.

GL Homes finished its work here and moved new-home sales to its successor community — I compare the two in Valencia Trails vs. Valencia Sky. Every purchase in Valencia Trails today is a resale, so the smart starting point is simple: see what owners are asking, and know what homes here actually close for before you believe any list price.
Four questions bring almost everyone to this site. Pick yours.
The honest fit test. I live here and do a lot of my business in Esplanade by the Islands, so my side-by-side pulls no punches — fees, amenities, locations, and the trade-offs each community asks you to accept.

The quarterly dues, what the all-inclusive fee actually covers, and the estoppel step that confirms the current amount at closing.

All 15 one-story GL plans across four collections, from about 1,674 to 3,472 sq ft — plan sheets, specs, and my notes on how each design lives day to day.

For owners: a real valuation built from closed Valencia Trails sales by floor plan and lot — an honest range from inside the community, not an algorithm’s guess.

The Club at Valencia Trails runs about 43,000 square feet on a 10+ acre campus, with a full-time lifestyle staff programming the week. Here is the short tour — the amenities page covers every space, and the photo gallery shows the rest.
The clubhouse, three pools and the whole racquet campus sit together on one walkable site — not scattered across the community.
A resort beach-entry pool, a 70-foot lap pool, and a resistance walking pool.
The community’s own restaurant and bar, inside the clubhouse.
Shows, dances and club nights, programmed by full-time lifestyle staff.
The social engine of the community — open play, leagues and clinics.
All six are clay and lighted for evening play.
League play fills them through the season.
Cardio, strength and free weights, with a steam room off the locker rooms.
Hair, nails and massage without leaving the gates.
Loops past the lakes and preserve edges that give the community its name, with benches at the right spots.
Zero-entry beach, with the poolside bar steps away.
Card tables, billiards and the games on.
Step through these doors — 47 real panoramas shot inside the gates.
Separate fenced runs for small and large breeds.
I would rather you learn these on this page than at the closing table. Each one links to the page that covers it properly.
At least one occupant of each home must be 55 or older, and the community follows the standard 80/20 structure. Confirm the current age rules fit everyone who will live in the home.
Every home pays $1,611 a quarter — one all-inclusive fee, with no tiers by home type or square footage. The association resets it with each annual budget, and the estoppel certificate confirms the current amount at closing.
GL Homes is done building here; its new construction now happens at Valencia Sky. Nobody can sell you a brand-new Valencia Trails home — if new build matters most, compare the successor honestly.
There is no CDD bond on the tax bill here, a genuine carrying-cost advantage over many newer Naples communities. Still confirm the property taxes for the exact address before you commit.
Seven-month minimum lease, no more than once per 12 months, and a leased home must still meet the 55+ occupancy rule. If renting is any part of your plan, verify the current governing documents first.
Insurance in Southwest Florida is priced per address, not per community. Before you write an offer, get the flood-zone status and an insurance read on the specific home you are considering — I will pull both for you.
Thirty homes are on the market between $729K and $1,999,000, and the 2026 median sold price sits near $930K. Notice the spread: the median asking price is around $1.43M — far above what is closing — because the active inventory skews to the largest plans. For a buyer, that gap usually means negotiating room; for a seller, it is a caution about pricing to the closed comps rather than to the neighbors’ hopes. The full 2021–2026 history, year by year, is on the market data page.
Most agents can tell you a community’s stats. I can tell you what Tuesday feels like here — because when the gate arm goes up, I am going home. Living in Valencia Trails means the dues, the rules, the floor plans, and the closing prices are not research topics for me; they are the facts of my own neighborhood, kept current every week.
I work as a transaction broker, and I lead with the numbers: the real cost of a specific home, confirmed before any showing, and a straight answer when a home — or the community itself — is not the right fit. The longer story, and why I built this site, is on the about page.
Tell me what matters — collection, lot, budget, timing — and I’ll send the current Valencia Trails resales that fit, each with its actual dues figure and my honest read on the asking price. Owners: ask for a valuation instead, and you’ll get one built from closed sales, not a portal estimate.
