“Everything's Included” — a national builder with deep Naples roots.
Lennar is one of the largest homebuilders in the United States and a long-standing presence in Southwest Florida. Its signature “Everything's Included” approach bundles popular features into the base price rather than selling them as a long à-la-carte options list — a simpler, more predictable buying process.
In Naples, Lennar's fingerprints are on several established communities. Much of its local product now trades resale, which makes these communities useful comparables when you're weighing today's new construction.
Popular upgrades bundled into the base price — fewer design-center decisions and a more predictable number.
A large builder’s buying power and standardized process, generally positioned on value.
Lennar-built neighborhoods across Naples now offer a real resale market to study.

Explore Reflection Lakes of Naples →Pricing: New Lennar product in the area has recently started around the mid-$300s (The National’s condos — the cheapest bundled-golf entry in the market) up through $800K+ estate homes; established Naples communities trade resale. Confirm current pricing per community.
Lennar (founded 1954, Miami) is one of the two largest U.S. homebuilders — roughly 85,000 homes delivered in fiscal 2025 — and its 2017 acquisition of WCI Communities made it the inheritor of some of Naples’ signature bundled-golf communities. The value case is real: “Everything’s Included” pricing, aggressive incentives and financing through Lennar Mortgage, and the cheapest new-construction golf entries in the market. Its next Collier chapter is already moving: the 1,000+ home Rivergrass village off Oil Well Road began site work in 2025–26.
It also carries the heaviest complaint file of the majors, locally: roughly twenty construction-defect suits in Collier County over five years (including a LaMorada carriage-home association claim), a 2025 Seminole Tribe suit alleging defects in 552 homes statewide, and recurring themes of roof, stucco, and water-intrusion issues — against a warranty whose terms let Lennar determine the necessary repairs. High volume naturally generates more cases, but the pattern argues for independent inspections at every milestone, in writing, without exception.
Lennar bundles its popular upgrades — appliances, quartz, smart-home package — into the base price instead of running a design studio. The upside is a predictable number and no options spiral; the downside is limited personalization. What’s “included” varies by community and phase, so get the current feature sheet in writing.
The National Golf & Country Club at Ave Maria — bundled Gordon Lewis golf with terrace condos recently from the mid-$300s and among the lowest all-in annual costs of any bundled community in the area. The trade-off is Ave Maria’s distance from the coast (45–60 minutes to the beach).
They should inform you, not necessarily stop you. Lennar builds more homes than almost anyone, so it accumulates more cases; plenty of owners are satisfied with the value. The practical response: hire your own inspector for pre-drywall and pre-closing, document every defect in writing within warranty windows, and review any association’s litigation disclosures when buying a Lennar-built condo resale.
Directly or through its WCI acquisition: Treviso Bay, LaMorada, and Reflection Lakes among the established gates (all resale now), with current construction at The National and Valencia Golf & CC near Ave Maria and the upcoming Rivergrass village in eastern Collier.
