Costa del Sol Villas for Sale at Pelican Landing
Costa del Sol at Pelican Landing is an intimate neighborhood of 62 maintenance-free attached villa homes in Bonita Springs, Florida. These ranch-style residences provide approximately 2,000 square feet of air-conditioned living area and are positioned around golf-course, lake, preserve and landscaped settings.
Costa del Sol offers a distinctive alternative to both detached single-family homes and conventional stacked condominiums. The residences provide single-story living, private entrances, attached garages and outdoor living areas while neighborhood association services address selected exterior and landscape responsibilities.
Many residences feature approximately three bedrooms, and some include courtyard arrangements, private swimming pools or detached-style guest cabanas within the villa footprint. Individual layouts and ownership responsibilities should always be confirmed for the specific residence.
62 Ranch-Style Villas in Costa del Sol
Costa del Sol's 62 residences create a relatively small residential setting inside the much larger Pelican Landing community.
The attached ranch-style design allows residents to enjoy private villa living without upstairs bedrooms or stacked condominium units above or below the residence.
The neighborhood's approximately 2,000-square-foot scale also creates greater consistency among comparable sales than communities containing homes that vary by several thousand square feet.
Costa del Sol Villa Sizes and Floor Plans
Official Pelican Landing information describes Costa del Sol residences as providing approximately 2,000 square feet under air.
Individual recorded properties demonstrate how closely many homes cluster around that figure, with examples of approximately 1,978, 2,073 and 2,080 square feet.
Three-bedroom configurations are common. Some plans use the third bedroom as a private guest suite or cabana positioned around an interior courtyard.
When comparing villas, buyers should examine usable living area, bedroom separation, courtyard configuration, storage and the relationship between the indoor rooms, lanai and permanent rear view.
Single-Story Villa Living
Costa del Sol's ranch-style architecture makes single-level living one of the neighborhood's defining advantages.
Bedrooms, kitchen, main living areas, garage and outdoor spaces are located on one level, eliminating the need for interior stairs.
This can appeal to both seasonal and full-time owners who prefer efficient circulation and direct access between indoor and outdoor living areas.
Buyers should still evaluate doorway widths, bathroom configurations, floor transitions and access from the garage and lanai when long-term accessibility is important.
Courtyard Villas and Guest Cabana Designs
One of Costa del Sol's more distinctive designs is the courtyard-style villa.
Selected homes arrange the residence around a private interior courtyard, sometimes with a swimming pool positioned between the main residence and a separate guest cabana or suite.
These layouts can create considerable privacy for overnight guests, a home office or multigenerational use while maintaining convenient one-story living.
When evaluating a courtyard home, buyers should review drainage, pool equipment, courtyard screening, exterior doors and the relationship between the cabana and main residence.
Golf, Lake and Preserve Views
Costa del Sol residences offer several permanent-view environments within Pelican Landing.
The permanent homesite should receive significant weight when comparing two otherwise similar villas because interior finishes can be renovated while golf, lake and preserve orientation cannot be recreated.
Rear Exposure and Outdoor Sunlight
Rear exposure affects how a Costa del Sol lanai or pool functions throughout the day.
Eastern exposure generally emphasizes morning light, southern orientations can provide substantial pool sun, and western or southwestern homesites may receive stronger afternoon light and sunset color.
Existing trees, preserve vegetation, roof overhangs and neighboring structures should be evaluated together with compass direction.
Private Pools and Outdoor Living
Some Costa del Sol villas include private swimming pools, including courtyard pools and rear-lanai pool configurations.
Other residences rely on patios, lanais and Pelican Landing's broader recreational amenities without assuming the maintenance responsibility of a private pool.
Pool Surface
Review finish, tile, coping and documented resurfacing history.
Equipment
Inspect pumps, filtration, heating, automation and fountain or spa systems.
Screen Enclosure
Review framing, screens, fasteners, doors and documented storm repairs.
Courtyard Drainage
For courtyard designs, evaluate drainage and water management around the pool and residence.
Attached Two-Car Garages
Attached two-car garages are a significant Costa del Sol feature and help distinguish these villas from many condominium alternatives.
Private garage space provides room for vehicles, beach equipment, bicycles, golf equipment and household storage.
Buyers should review actual garage dimensions, built-in storage, garage-door condition, hurricane rating, opener equipment and any electric-vehicle charging improvements.
Costa del Sol Construction
Costa del Sol was developed during Pelican Landing's established residential construction period, with recorded residences dating principally from the 1990s.
Concrete-block and stucco construction with tile roofing is common among Costa del Sol villas.
Because these are established homes, buyers should focus on current component condition rather than original construction year alone.
Roof, windows, doors, HVAC systems, water heaters, plumbing, electrical components and pool equipment may have been replaced or renovated at very different times from one residence to another.
Renovated vs. More Original Costa del Sol Villas
Costa del Sol residences can vary significantly in interior finish and capital-improvement history.
Updated homes may include redesigned kitchens, contemporary cabinetry, quartz or stone counters, newer appliances, flooring, remodeled bathrooms and updated lighting.
Capital improvements such as roof work, impact-resistant windows and doors, hurricane shutters, HVAC replacement, water heaters, pool equipment and screen-enclosure work can be equally important.
Buyers should distinguish cosmetic remodeling from improvements that can materially affect maintenance and insurance exposure.
Costa del Sol Villa Ownership and Association Structure
Costa del Sol is marketed as a community of attached villas, while property and association records may use condominium terminology for the legal ownership structure.
That distinction matters. Buyers should review the actual declaration, title, survey or condominium documents for the residence rather than assuming the ownership responsibilities are identical to another Pelican Landing villa neighborhood.
Costa del Sol has its own neighborhood association and professional management in addition to the Pelican Landing master-community structure.
Neighborhood Documents
Review Costa del Sol declarations, rules, budget, reserves, assessments and insurance information.
Exterior Responsibility
Confirm responsibility for roof, exterior walls, paint, windows, doors and structural components.
Landscape Maintenance
Verify current lawn, irrigation, pest-control and landscape services included through the association.
Master Association
Review Pelican Landing Community Association fees, amenities, rules and owner obligations separately.
Roof, Exterior Maintenance and Insurance
Roof and exterior responsibility is especially important in an attached-villa community.
Current Costa del Sol listings have reflected association involvement in exterior maintenance and certain insurance-related expenses, but buyers should verify the exact current allocation through official association documents.
The individual residence should also be reviewed for impact-resistant windows and doors, hurricane shutters, garage-door rating and protection for large sliding-glass openings.
A property-specific insurance quotation should be obtained before purchase because owner coverage requirements can differ according to legal ownership structure and association insurance.
Pelican Landing Private Gulf Beach
Costa del Sol residents enjoy access to Pelican Landing's private 34-acre Beach Park on Big Hickory Island.
Residents reach the island by community shuttle boat across Estero Bay for Gulf-front swimming, shelling, fishing, bird watching and beach recreation.
The amenity allows Costa del Sol owners to combine a golf-, lake- or preserve-oriented villa with private Gulf beach privileges.
Pelican Landing Amenities
Costa del Sol ownership includes access to the broader Pelican Landing recreational system.
Additional community amenities include fitness facilities, bocce, fishing areas, community gathering spaces and walking or biking opportunities.
Optional Golf at The Nest Golf Club
Private golf membership is separate from Costa del Sol residential ownership.
The Nest Golf Club is located within Pelican Landing and provides two 18-hole Tom Fazio-designed golf courses.
The Club operates independently from the Pelican Landing Community Association, so residential ownership does not automatically include or require private golf membership.
Buyers interested in golf should verify current membership availability, categories, joining requirements, waiting-list procedures, dues and privileges directly with The Nest.
Costa del Sol vs. Other Pelican Landing Villas
Costa del Sol is best compared with Pelican Landing's other villa neighborhoods rather than its condominium buildings or large estate-home communities.
Ascot provides larger detached one- and two-story villas. Bay Crest offers larger attached one- and two-story villas, while Capri provides detached one-story maintenance-free homes.
The Cottages, Heron Cove, Heron Glen, Longlake Village and Pinewater Place offer additional villa alternatives with different residence sizes, ownership structures and permanent views.
Costa del Sol's distinctive combination is its approximately 2,000-square-foot size, ranch-style single-level layout, attached construction and availability of courtyard and private-pool designs.
How to Compare Costa del Sol Villa Values
Because most Costa del Sol residences cluster around approximately 2,000 square feet, buyers can place greater emphasis on differences in homesite, renovation and capital improvements.
Golf, lake or preserve orientation, rear exposure, courtyard design, private pool, guest cabana, interior updates, roof history and hurricane protection can all influence value.
The strongest comparable sales are generally other Costa del Sol residences with similar floor plans and permanent settings.
Costa del Sol Buyer Due Diligence
Legal Ownership
Verify title and whether the residence is legally treated as condominium ownership or another attached-villa structure.
Association Documents
Review current Costa del Sol budgets, reserves, assessments, insurance and rules.
Roof & Exterior
Determine association-versus-owner responsibility for roofing, exterior walls, windows and doors.
Storm Protection
Verify impact glass, shutters, garage-door rating and protection for major openings.
Pool & Courtyard
Where present, inspect pool, equipment, screen enclosure, courtyard surfaces and drainage.
Permanent View
Compare golf, lake or preserve setting together with rear exposure and privacy.
Insurance
Obtain a property-specific quotation based on the residence's legal ownership and association coverage.
Recent Sales
Prioritize comparable Costa del Sol villas with similar views, pools, renovations and capital improvements.
Selling a Costa del Sol Villa
Costa del Sol sellers should clearly describe the residence as a ranch-style attached villa and identify the actual legal ownership structure where appropriate.
Marketing should emphasize the permanent golf, lake or preserve view, courtyard design, private pool, guest cabana, rear exposure, two-car garage, roof history, storm protection and significant renovation.
The maintenance-free neighborhood structure, Pelican Landing private beach and broader recreational amenities can also be important differentiators for buyers comparing Southwest Florida villa communities.
