The Isles of Collier Preserve
Naples, Fla.
Minto Communities

Winner of two awards from the NAHB—the Nationals and the Best in American Living—the Isles Club was inspired by the coastal cottage style of the original Naples Beach Hotel built in 1888. Like the original, The Isles Club is distinguished by a stylized cupola and large awning-shaded front porch and features dining, swimming in the resort-style pool and lap pool, tennis, pickleball and workouts in the state-of-the-art fitness center. A lushly landscaped event courtyard, yoga lawn and kayak launch provide additional opportunities for outdoor recreation.

The 2,400-acre Isles of Collier Preserve is bordered on the south by Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, the north by Naples Botanical Garden, and the west by Dollar Bay. More than half of its land is dedicated to natural habitat and preserve areas connected by an eight-mile network of biking paths and recreational trails with exercise stations and nature observation areas, as well as blueways for kayaking.
