Turtle Bay Drive • 36 Residences • Three Low-Rise Buildings • Built 1990
St Simone Condos for Sale at Pelican Bay in Naples
St Simone is an intimate 36-residence low-rise condominium enclave in southern Pelican Bay, offering two-story garden-style buildings, screened lanais, covered parking, mature landscaping and a private neighborhood pool and spa within easy reach of Pelican Bay's private beach system.
St Simone differs substantially from the high-rise towers that define another segment of Pelican Bay real estate . Instead of elevators, tower stacks and high-floor Gulf views, St Simone consists of three low-rise condominium buildings arranged along Turtle Bay Drive with a total of only 36 residences.
That smaller scale creates a more residential environment while retaining access to the larger Pelican Bay beach, recreation, dining and cultural lifestyle.
Three Buildings and Only 36 Residences
St Simone's limited residence count is one of its defining characteristics. With just 36 condominiums, buyers are comparing a much smaller ownership pool than at most Pelican Bay high-rises.
Because sales can be infrequent, valuation should begin with the most comparable St Simone transaction available and then expand carefully to similar low-rise Pelican Bay communities only when necessary.
Floor Plans and Residence Sizes
Recent St Simone sales and listings show residence sizes generally in the low-to-mid 1,300-square-foot range through approximately 1,500 square feet, with two-bedroom-plus-den and three-bedroom configurations among the common layouts. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="2"}
Individual condominiums should still be compared according to actual recorded living area, bedroom and den configuration, interior circulation, natural light, lanai treatment and renovation history.
Floor First-floor residences offer step-free convenience, while upper-level units may provide additional privacy and different outlooks.
Floor Plan Two-bedroom-plus-den and three-bedroom layouts should be compared separately.
Lanai Screened outdoor space, exposure, enclosure and privacy can materially influence livability.
Parking Covered or assigned parking should be verified for the individual residence.
First-Floor vs. Upper-Level Condos
St Simone is a low-rise community, so floor position affects the ownership experience differently than it would in a Pelican Bay tower.
Ground-floor residences can appeal to buyers who want direct access without stairs. Current St Simone inventory includes a first-floor residence specifically marketed for its easy ground-level access. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="3"}
Upper-level residences may offer greater privacy, different natural-light patterns and vaulted or elevated interior characteristics depending on the individual unit.
Screened Lanais and Outdoor Living
Screened lanais are an important part of the St Simone lifestyle. Depending on the residence, the lanai may overlook tropical landscaping, courtyard areas, the neighborhood pool or other community surroundings.
Buyers should compare orientation, usable depth, privacy, screening, enclosure history, storm protection and whether any lanai space has been incorporated into conditioned living area.
Community Pool and Spa
St Simone provides its own neighborhood pool and spa, allowing owners to enjoy convenient recreation without leaving the enclave.
Current 2026 listing information notes that the community pool has been redone and the buildings have recently received fresh exterior paint, demonstrating why buyers should review current association improvement records instead of relying solely on historical descriptions. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="4"}
Covered Parking and Storage
St Simone residences commonly include covered or carport-style parking rather than enclosed private garages. Current MLS information identifies detached carport parking on available residences. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="5"}
Buyers should verify the exact parking assignment, guest-parking rules, storage rights and whether any storage area is deeded, limited common element or otherwise assigned.
Renovated vs. More Original Residences
St Simone dates to approximately 1990, so interior condition can vary considerably.
Some residences have undergone extensive kitchen, bath, flooring and layout updates, while others offer buyers an opportunity to renovate according to their own preferences.
Cosmetic finishes should be considered separately from larger systems such as HVAC, water heater, plumbing, electrical service, windows, doors, appliances and storm protection.
Storm Protection and Building Openings
Hurricane protection should be confirmed for each condominium. Impact-resistant doors or windows, shutters and other protective systems may differ by residence. Recent listings document upgraded impact-related features in individual St Simone units, but those improvements should not be assumed community-wide. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="6"}
Pelican Bay Private Beach Lifestyle
St Simone ownership includes access to the broader Pelican Bay lifestyle, which is a major reason buyers consider this small low-rise community.
Pelican Bay amenities include private Gulf beach access, tram transportation through the preserve, beachfront dining, attended beach service, fitness and wellness facilities, racquet recreation and an extensive walking and biking network, subject to current community operations and policies. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="7"}
South Pelican Bay Location
St Simone occupies a convenient position in the southern portion of Pelican Bay near Waterside Shops, Artis—Naples and The Baker Museum.
The location can appeal to owners who want the privacy of a small residential enclave while remaining close to cultural venues, dining, shopping and Pelican Bay's coastal amenities.
Club Pelican Bay Golf
Private golf through Club Pelican Bay is separate from ownership of a St Simone condominium.
Buyers whose purchase depends on private golf should verify current membership categories, availability, initiation requirements, dues, waiting-list procedures and privileges directly with Club Pelican Bay.
Association, Insurance and Reserve Due Diligence
A small 36-residence condominium association requires careful financial review because major capital costs are shared among a relatively limited number of owners.
Current operating budget
Reserve balances and reserve contributions
Condominium and Pelican Bay assessments
Master insurance and deductibles
Roof and exterior-maintenance responsibility
Pool and spa projects
Painting and exterior restoration
Windows and door responsibility

How to Value a St Simone Condo
Preferred valuation sequence: St Simone → floor → floor plan → recorded living area → bedroom/den configuration → lanai → outlook/privacy → parking → storage → renovation → storm protection → major systems → association condition → strongest recent St Simone comparable sales.
A broad Pelican Bay condominium price-per-square-foot average should not override a well-matched St Simone comparable when one exists.
Current St Simone Condos for Sale
Current St Simone inventory appears in the native RealGeeks IDX immediately below this guide. Because the community contains only 36 residences, available inventory may be limited at any particular time.
St Simone buyers may also compare nearby Pelican Bay condominium communities with different building heights, views, residence counts and amenity packages.
Buyers should determine the exact floor plan, recorded living area, bedroom/den configuration, floor, lanai exposure, parking and storage before choosing comparable sales.
Renovation, HVAC, plumbing, electrical systems, windows, doors, storm protection, association financials, insurance and reserve funding should then be reviewed separately.
Selling a St Simone Condo
Sellers should document the permanent features that differentiate their residence: floor position, floor plan, living area, bedroom configuration, lanai, privacy, outlook, parking and storage.
Interior renovations and infrastructure improvements should be documented separately so buyers can distinguish cosmetic presentation from meaningful capital upgrades.
