Get every Lely Resort sale from the last 12 months →At Lely Resort, golf is pay-as-you-play unless you choose more: two of its three championship courses are public — no membership required to play — and the third is a private equity club you can join separately. It’s one of South Naples’ largest master-planned communities — roughly 2,900 acres off Collier Boulevard (CR-951) and US-41, about 15–20 minutes from downtown Naples, the beaches, and Marco Island. Developed largely by Stock Development over three decades, it spans 40+ neighborhoods, from rentable golf condos to multimillion-dollar custom estates.
At its center are three championship golf courses — Flamingo Island (Robert Trent Jones Sr.) and Mustang (Lee Trevino), both public, plus the private Gary Player–designed Classics — and the ~30,000-sq-ft Players Club & Spa. Lely is now largely built out, so it’s primarily a resale market, with a handful of newer Stock neighborhoods (Lakoya, Tasori, Sunstone).
The most important thing to understand: Lely is not one uniform HOA or membership. In many neighborhoods, Players Club membership is a mandatory recorded covenant; in others it’s optional. For a neighborhood-by-neighborhood breakdown — all 40+ communities, covenant status, fees, and an interactive map — see our dedicated guide at lelyresortguides.com.

- Largely built out — a deep, liquid resale market with steady demand

What it’s like to live in Lely Resort
For many homeowners Lely delivers a country-club lifestyle without joining a country club: the Players Club & Spa centers daily life with resort and lap pools, a tiki bar, racquet sports, a full spa, fitness, and a busy social calendar.
Golfers get unusual flexibility — play the public Flamingo Island and Mustang courses without a membership, or pursue a private equity membership at The Classics. Several neighborhoods also have their own pools and clubhouses (Ole’s Village Center, Alden Woods, and more).

Lely Resort questions, answered
Is Players Club membership required at Lely Resort?
It depends on the neighborhood. Many carry a recorded "Amenities Covenant" requiring membership in the Players Club & Spa; others are optional, and a few are mixed. Always confirm the covenant for the specific home.
What does the Players Club & Spa cost?
Per the 2026 schedule, a $10,000 refundable membership deposit plus annual dues of $6,400 + 6% Florida sales tax. Verify current figures with the club.
Can anyone play golf at Lely Resort?
Yes — Flamingo Island and Mustang are public, pay-as-you-play courses. The Classics is private (equity membership).
Is Lely Resort new construction or resale?
It is now primarily a resale market, with a few newer Stock neighborhoods (Lakoya, Tasori, Sunstone) representing the final phases.
What do homes in Lely Resort actually sell for?
In 2025, across all home types, the median sale price ran roughly $610K to $655K — about $318 per square foot — with homes typically taking around 73 days to sell, per Redfin. Because Lely spans rentable golf condos to multimillion-dollar Classics estates, the right number depends heavily on the home type and neighborhood: condos and villas trade from the $250Ks, while estates reach $3M+. These are community-wide averages, so verify against current listings and recent closings for the specific neighborhood and home.

Lely Resort — Key Numbers & Resources
Handy contacts for residents and buyers — bookmark this page so they’re here when you need them. Details can change; confirm anything time-sensitive directly.
Your tee time is on Flamingo Island or Mustang — both public, so no membership stands between you and the first tee. Lunch at Sam Snead’s Tavern on the public-golf side, then the afternoon at the Players Club & Spa: the lagoon pool, the tiki bar, maybe one of the 13 Har-Tru courts. If your neighborhood carries the Players Club covenant, that campus is part of ownership; if not, joining is a choice — either way, today’s tee time never required a membership.
