The history

Built deliberately, opened in 2001.

Miromar Lakes was developed by Miromar Development Corporation, an Estero company founded in 1988 by Margaret Antonier. The community opened in 2001, the same year its golf course debuted, and it was designed from the start as a resort-residential concept: people live here, and they vacation here without leaving the gates.

The design has been recognized at the national level. Among more than 200 industry awards, Miromar Lakes is the only community to have won National Association of Home Builders Gold Awards for both #1 Community in the USA and #1 Clubhouse.

The community's official website and Miromar Development Corporation are the best sources for the full story, current amenity details, and membership information.

Neighborhoods within the gates

One community, several neighborhoods.

Tivoli

The attached villa neighborhood where 10000 Isola Way sits. Tivoli is made up of attached villas with a warm Mediterranean character, and its position in the community gives residents easy access to the resort amenities. The den-based floor plans here are popular with buyers who want extra flexibility without extra square footage.

Beachfront and Waterfront Residences

Homes positioned along the community’s freshwater lake system and beach areas, prized for water and sunset views. These collections sit closest to the resort-style focal points of the community.

Luxury Villas, Estates, and full-floor residences

Grand Estate and Estate Homes, Luxury Villas, and full-floor residences round out the community, from larger estate lots to vertical residences. Newer construction neighborhoods, including Positano, Nerano, and Messina, continue the community’s Italian-inspired naming and design language.

Note: specific floor plan sizes and availability for each collection change over time, so confirm current details through the official community sources listed at the bottom of this page.

The resort lifestyle

Amenities that feel like a permanent vacation.

Residents have full access to miles of sand beaches on 700 acres of freshwater lakes, with water sports, kayaking, paddleboarding, and boating from two private marinas. Tennis, pickleball, bocce, a putting green, and a kids play area cover the active side of the day.

For rest and recovery, there is a full-service spa and fitness center, a zero-edge infinity pool with spa, and a main clubhouse with dining, inside and outside bars, a private dining room, and a library. The Blue Water Beach Grill adds waterfront dining with an outdoor terrace and a perfect view of the lakes.

Golf

An optional membership, a signature course.

The Miromar Lakes Golf Club is an Arthur Hills Signature championship course, the only one of its kind in Southwest Florida, and it was redesigned by Drew Rogers in 2017. It is paired with a Tuscan-inspired clubhouse that matches the community's architectural character.

Membership at the golf club is optional and separate from owning a home in the community. That means you can enjoy the beaches, tennis, spa, and dining without being a golfer, or you can add the membership if the course is part of the lifestyle you want.

Current membership options and fees are published on the official Miromar Lakes Golf Club page.

Before you buy

Is Miromar Lakes right for you?

Miromar Lakes suits buyers who want resort amenities as part of daily life: full-time families, retirees, and seasonal residents who fly in for the season. The community is gated, well-kept, and connected, with everything from beaches and tennis to dining and a spa inside the gates.

It also has a rhythm to respect: peak season runs roughly November through April, when the community is at its busiest, and the summer months are quieter and more intimate. Homes here vary widely by neighborhood, view, and size, so the floor plan that fits you best depends on how you plan to use it. That is exactly where a local agent earns their keep.

If you are new to buying in a resort community, the Buyer's Guide walks through the process step by step, and the FAQ answers the questions buyers ask most about 10000 Isola Way itself.
