This is Bonita Landing in the City of Bonita Springs, ZIP 34135, not Pelican Landing and not part of VillageWalk.

This guide is built from the public record and nothing else: the Lee County Property Appraiser's roll dated October 11, 2026, every Lee County recorded sale through September 25, 2026, the 53-page Declaration recorded in 2016, the 2016 plat and the 2018 Unit Two replat, the Bonita Landing Community Development District's adopted FY2027 budget and bond schedule, three 2025 Lee County tax bills, FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer at 15 points and the School District of Lee County's zone data. Every figure carries its source and date, and where a record does not exist we say so.

The Bonita Landing market record, 24 months to September 25, 2026

We pulled every recorded Bonita Landing sale in the Lee County record for the 24 months to September 25, 2026: 20 resales at a $637,500 median, from $530,000 to $900,000, six of them in the last 12 months. In the last 24 months we tracked 20 Bonita Landing sales in the Lee County record, and every one of them was a resale; the county file shows no builder sale here since 2021. We use the 24-month window because it is the first one with 10 or more sales, and a median from fewer sales reads more precise than it is. The full record by window, calendar year and home size is in the market section below.

For Bonita Landing sellers

A Bonita Landing sale is priced against homes of the same size first, because the county roll shows the same Lennar sizes repeating around the loop: 66 homes of 2,445 square feet of county heated area, 58 of 2,032 and 25 each of 1,852 and 2,202. A buyer also asks which CDD product the home pays on its tax bill, $1,510.77 or $1,634.48 for FY2027, and whether the lot touches the lake tract, as 99 of the 215 homes in the county roll file do. For luxury Bonita Landing sellers we add premium marketing: cinematic video, drone, professional photography, a qualified-buyer database, and discretion with off-market capability when a sale needs to stay private.

For Bonita Landing buyers

Buyers here are reading three records that most listing pages skip: the CDD line on the tax bill, which carries Series 2016 bond debt to December 2047; the recorded Declaration, which sets a 30-day minimum lease and splits maintenance between the association and the owner; and the district's pending circuit court case against Lennar over the lake embankment.

Key Takeaways: What Should Bonita Landing Buyers and Sellers Know?

Bonita Landing is a single-builder Lennar community in Bonita Springs where the fee stack, the lake record and a small number of resales decide most buying and selling questions. These eight points carry the rest of this guide, and each is sourced in the section that covers it.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026; county roll dated October 11, 2026; Bonita Landing CDD FY2027 adopted budget; 2025 Lee County tax bills; FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer read October 12, 2026).

What Is Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs, and Where Is It?

Bonita Landing is a community of 219 single-family homes on about 104 acres in the City of Bonita Springs, Lee County, ZIP 34135. It sits on the south side of Bonita Beach Road SE about 4 miles east of I-75, and Lennar Homes, LLC built every home from 2016 to 2021 around a central lake.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser parcel layer and roll dated October 11, 2026; recorded plats, 2016 and 2018; Lee County GIS layers and FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer read October 12, 2026).

Where exactly is Bonita Landing?

Bonita Landing lies in Section 2, Township 48 South, Range 26 East, just north of the Lee and Collier county line. Every home is on one street, Bonita Landing Circle, a private loop with cul-de-sacs whose four road segments carry a 25 mph limit on the Lee County road layer. The loop meets Bonita Beach Road SE at a single entrance, and Bonita Springs Fire Control and Rescue District Station 26 sits right beside it: 0.23 mile in a straight line, about 0.3 mile and 1 minute by road, and the whole community is inside its response zone.

VillageWalk of Bonita Springs shares the west boundary, and the Bonita Landing plat notes the adjoining VillageWalk plats. Valencia Bonita, recorded as Bonita Beach Road Estates, lies to the south. Seasons at Bonita is to the east, with Bonita National farther east beyond it. Across Bonita Beach Road SE to the north is unincorporated Lee County conservation and rural land, designated Density Reduction/Groundwater Resource, including the CREW Flint Pen Strand area and its trails. The nearest Collier County land is about 0.67 mile south in a straight line from the nearest Bonita Landing parcel.

Does Bonita Landing have a gate?

The entrance on Bonita Beach Road SE is a divided entry with a landscaped median and a stone monument sign. The recorded Declaration contains no gate or guard provision and promises no security services, and the Lee County Property Appraiser's cost card for the road tract records no gatehouse or gate. Whether the entry has gate arms or a card reader is not shown in the records we read, so we describe the entrance and nothing more.

Is Bonita Landing in the City of Bonita Springs?

Yes. The Lee County Property Appraiser codes all 231 Bonita Landing parcel records (219 homes and 12 common tracts) to MuniCode B and tax district 017, which the county describes as "City of Bonita Springs / Bonita Springs Fire". Every parcel is zoned RPD, Residential Planned Development, and sits in garbage district 001. The land came into the City under Ordinance 04-03, annexed March 17, 2004, as part of a 1,299-acre annexation. Tax district 017 is what sets the millage on a Bonita Landing tax bill, explained in the cost section below.

Bonita Landing is not Pelican Landing or part of VillageWalk

Bonita Landing is a separate community with its own plats, its own association and its own special district. One association uses the name, Bonita Landing Homeowner's Association, Inc., and one district, the Bonita Landing Community Development District. Bonita Landing is not part of VillageWalk, Valencia Bonita or Bonita National, and it is not Pelican Landing: the "Landing" names in Pelican Landing and Bonita Bay are in ZIP 34134, while Bonita Landing is in ZIP 34135 on Bonita Beach Road SE. Sales from any other community are never mixed into the figures on this page.

What Is It Like Living in Bonita Landing as a Homebuyer?

Bonita Landing is a set of mostly one-story Lennar homes from 2016 to 2021 on one loop street around a 46.88-acre lake in Bonita Springs. Nearly half the lots touch the lake tract, most homes have their own pool, the shared ground is a lakeside park with a pier and pavilion, and public trails sit across Bonita Beach Road.

One street around one lake

Bonita Landing Circle is the only street on the county roll for this community. It loops around the lake with cul-de-sacs off it, and its private road segments meet Bonita Beach Road SE at the one entrance. The lake and the home lots take almost exactly the same land: 46.88 acres for lake Tract L and 46.86 acres for the home lots, each about 45 percent of the 104.42 acres the parcel layer measures (46.88 / 104.42 = 0.449). Roads, four small park tracts and buffer strips make up the rest.

Lake lots and private pools

Measured from county parcel lines, 99 of the 215 homes in the county roll file (46.0 percent) sit on lots that touch the 46.88-acre lake tract: 53 in Phase 1 and 46 in Unit Two. On the parcel layer the count is 101 of 219. Touching the lake tract is a measurement of lot lines, not a statement about any home's view.

Private pools are the norm. Of the 215 homes in the county roll file, 157 (73.0 percent) carry the county's private-pool record: 79 of 116 in Phase 1 and 78 of 99 in Unit Two. There is no community pool, so any pool at a Bonita Landing home belongs to that home.

What the association handles

Under the recorded Declaration, Bonita Landing Homeowner's Association, Inc. maintains, as a common expense, the lawns, shrubs, trees and the landscaping installed with the home on the front and accessible parts of each lot, the lot irrigation equipment, street lights on association property and the common areas. The association owns the private roads, the buffer tracts and the four park tracts: P1 (0.54 acre) with the lakeside park, P2 (0.48 acre), P3 (0.41 acre, with a looped garden path on the 2025 county aerial) and P4 (0.25 acre).

What owners handle

The Declaration leaves the house itself to the owner. That means the roof, and the text is specific: "all tile roofs shall be power washed no less than once every other year or as needed". It also means exterior paint, garage and entry doors, original perimeter fences or walls, lot swales, utility lines serving only the lot, rear-yard landscaping and the strip between the lot line and the curb unless the association assumes it. Each owner must insure the home to full replacement cost, and after a casualty must begin repairs within 6 months and finish within 9 months.

Trails across the road

The CREW Flint Pen Strand Trails main parking area is at 15970 Bonita Beach Rd SE by Vincent Road, about a quarter mile west of the Bonita Landing entrance on the north side of the road, about 2 minutes by car. Parking is free, and the trails open one hour before sunrise and close one hour after sunset. The CREW Land and Water Trust lists hiking, biking, birding, running, horseback riding with a South Florida Water Management District licence and hunting in season under Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission rules; its 2026 trail map shows six marked trails from 1.5 to 13.7 miles round trip, with restrooms and picnic areas at the parking areas. Whether a marked walking route links the Bonita Landing entrance to the trailhead is not shown in the records we read.

What Bonita Landing does not have

No county cost card, no association photo and no 2025 county aerial shows any of these inside Bonita Landing:

• A clubhouse, community pool or fitness room
• Sport courts of any kind, or a dog park
• Golf, a marina, a boat ramp, boat slips or boat and RV storage
• A gatehouse

The lake itself is not open water for general use: the recorded Declaration says no owner may use the lakes "except as may be permitted from time to time by the Association or the CDD", and it bars boats powered by gasoline or diesel. The current fishing, paddling and swimming rules are not public.

What we walk a Bonita Landing buyer through first

This is our process, not an anecdote:

• Which CDD product the home pays. The district's FY2027 table bills $1,510.77 a year on the 50-foot product and $1,634.48 on the 60-foot product, and the CDD line on that home's own tax bill is the way to tell which one applies.
• The estoppel certificate, which states the real association assessment because the dues are not published. Under F.S. 720.30851 the association issues it within 10 business days of a written or electronic request, with no fee if it is late; the statute's base fee is $250, plus $100 if expedited and $150 if the account is delinquent, and the Department of Business and Professional Regulation's published adjustment sets the current caps at $299, $119 and $179. The association's actual fee may be lower.
• The roof. Original roofs here date from 2016 to 2021, and under F.S. 627.7011 an insurer may not refuse to issue or renew a homeowner policy solely because a roof is under 15 years old; these roofs reach 15 years from 2031 to 2036. Permit history and any replacement are read for the specific home.
• The lake case. The Bonita Landing CDD sued Lennar Homes, LLC in circuit court (case 2024-CA-007567) over the lake embankment; the district's audited statements say the outcome cannot be determined. In August 2026 the district's Board authorised staff to prepare a survey of the pond, so we read the latest district meeting record before a contract.
• The lease rule if the home will be rented: the recorded Declaration sets a minimum lease of 30 consecutive days, requires a written lease with a copy to the association at least 15 days before the term, and bars subleasing.

What Does the Bonita Landing Market Look Like Right Now?

Lee County recorded 6 Bonita Landing resales in the 12 months to September 25, 2026, from $530,000 to $707,000, too few for a median. Over 24 months there were 20 resales at a $637,500 median and $303.98 per square foot of county heated area, with no builder sale since 2021. MLS measures were not available.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026; county roll dated October 11, 2026).

The county record, 24 months to September 25, 2026

Source: Lee County recorded sales, the 24 months to September 25, 2026 (September 26, 2024 to September 25, 2026), our analysis of the county record for the 215 homes in the county roll file. The 24-month window is the first with 10 or more sales; the middle pair of the 20 sales was $635,000 and $640,000, which gives the $637,500 median.

Every sale in the last 12 months

Source: Lee County recorded sales, the 12 months to September 25, 2026. All six were resales on Bonita Landing Circle: three in Phase 1 and three in Unit Two, and three on lots touching the lake tract. Six sales are too few for a median, so we list them instead; a median of six would read more precise than the record allows.

The longer view: 24, 36 and 60 months

Source: Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026. The windows nest inside each other, so the 60-month median of $687,500 includes the busier, higher-priced years of 2022 and 2023, while the 24-month median of $637,500 reflects the most recent two years. Across all recorded history from January 9, 2017, the county file holds 318 qualified Bonita Landing sales at a $422,096 median, from $130,000 to $900,000, but that figure includes Lennar's first sales of new homes from 2017 to 2021 and is not a resale price.

Bonita Landing by calendar year

Source: Lee County recorded sales, calendar years, through September 25, 2026. The 2017 sales were all in Phase 1 and all builder-direct; 48 of the 49 sales in 2018 were builder-direct, and the first Unit Two sale recorded on October 31, 2018. Builder-direct counts are our inference from the county record and are estimates.

Comparing calendar years only, with the counts named: the median moved from $772,500 on 20 sales in 2023 to $635,000 on 13 sales in 2025, down 17.8 percent (635,000 / 772,500 = 0.822). From 2019, when most sales were Lennar's new homes, to 2023, a resale year, the median rose 96.8 percent, from $392,500 on 60 sales to $772,500 on 20. Small annual counts move a median sharply, and these figures describe what recorded, not what comes next.

Highest and lowest recorded sales

The highest sale in the county file for Bonita Landing is $900,000, recorded March 6, 2025, for a 2017-built home of 2,445 square feet of county heated area. The lowest in the 24-month window is $530,000, recorded January 9, 2026, for a 2020-built home of 2,202 square feet. Both were resales on Bonita Landing Circle.

What the public record cannot tell you yet

Days on market, sale-to-list ratio, active listings and months of supply come from the Southwest Florida MLS: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-10). County and MLS counts can differ because the MLS reports closings by its own subdivision field and closing date, while the county records a sale when the deed is recorded.

What Kinds of Homes Are in Bonita Landing?

Bonita Landing has 219 single-family Lennar homes built from 2016 to 2021, almost all one story, from 1,677 to 3,909 square feet of county heated area. Most have three or four bedrooms, and the lots have a median of 9,095 square feet, about a fifth of an acre, on the county parcel layer.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County roll dated October 11, 2026; Lee County parcel layer read October 12, 2026; Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026).

Home sizes on the county roll

Across the 215 homes in the county roll file, county heated area runs from 1,677 to 3,909 square feet, with a mean of about 2,239. Thirty-one homes are under 2,000 square feet, 177 are from 2,000 to 2,999 and 7 are 3,000 or more. A handful of sizes repeat again and again, which marks Lennar's plans, and the table below groups homes by those sizes with their recorded sales over 60 months.

Source: Lee County roll dated October 11, 2026, and Lee County recorded sales, the 60 months to September 25, 2026. Sizes are county heated area; Lennar's plan names are not on any record we read, so we group by size and never by plan name. A median appears only for a group with 10 or more sales. The six groups hold 215 homes and 70 sales, matching the community totals.

Bedrooms and stories

The county roll counts 129 three-bedroom homes, 79 four-bedroom homes, 5 five-bedroom homes, 1 two-bedroom home and 1 six-bedroom home. On the county layer 203 of the 215 homes in the roll file are one story (94.4 percent) and 12 are two story, all of them in the larger, less common sizes. The roll lists full baths only, so we do not print baths by size.

Lot sizes

The 219 lots on the county parcel layer run from 6,763 to 22,028 square feet, with a median of 9,095 square feet (0.209 acre) and quartiles of 8,116 and 10,045 square feet. Thirty-two lots are under 7,500 square feet, 130 are from 7,500 to under 10,000, 51 are from 10,000 to under 15,000 and 6 are 15,000 or more. The CDD's assessment table names two lot products, 125 units of "SF 50'" and 94 of "SF 60'", but no public record we read assigns a width to a given lot; the CDD line on a home's tax bill shows which product it pays.

Lake-tract lots

Ninety-nine of the 215 homes in the county roll file sit on lots that touch the 46.88-acre lake tract, measured from county parcel lines: 53 in Phase 1 and 46 in Unit Two. The county's own lake land-use code is also on 99 roll homes, though not on exactly the same lots, which is why we measured the lot lines ourselves. Lake-tract lots and other lots have not sold at a consistent difference across the windows we measured, so this page states no lake premium.

Pools

Of the 215 homes in the county roll file, 157 (73.0 percent) carry the county's private-pool record, almost evenly split between the plats: 79 of 116 in Phase 1 and 78 of 99 in Unit Two. Every home has a garage on the county layer, and no lot has a boat dock or seawall.

Year built

Lennar built Bonita Landing over six years. By year built on the roll: 10 homes in 2016, 35 in 2017, 49 in 2018, 55 in 2019, 54 in 2020 and 12 in 2021. That puts 109 of the 215 homes in the county roll file (50.7 percent) in 2019 and 2020 alone (55 + 54). Phase 1 was built from 2016 to 2021, mostly in 2017 and 2018; Unit Two from 2018 to 2021, mostly in 2019 and 2020. The last homes went up in 2021, and the county file shows no builder sale since.

Homes by plat

Source: Lee County Property Appraiser parcel layer and roll dated October 11, 2026; recorded plats, 2016 and 2018; lake-tract lots measured from county parcel lines. Unit Two was replatted in 2018 from a former fire-district tract and leans to the smaller plans: 69 of its 99 roll homes are 2,202 square feet or less, against 45 of 116 in Phase 1. Phase 1 holds 71 of the 101 homes of 2,251 square feet or more, which is why the two plats price differently in the county record; that comparison is set out in the section on Phase 1 and Unit Two.

How Did Bonita Landing Come to Be?

Bonita Landing began as the lake parcel of a larger 2005 planned development on Bonita Beach Road SE in Bonita Springs. Lennar bought about 104 acres, converted the plan to single-family homes in 2015, formed the community development district and recorded the plat and Declaration in 2016, sold the first homes in 2017 and finished building in 2021.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Clerk Official Records, read October 12, 2026; Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026; county roll dated October 11, 2026).

The 2005 East Bonita plan

The ground under Bonita Landing entered the City of Bonita Springs in 2004. City Ordinance 04-03 annexed 1,299 acres on March 17, 2004, a tract the county's annexation layer labels "BeachRoadDevelopment." A year later the City rezoned 294.85 acres of that land on Bonita Beach Road SE as one Residential Planned Development under Zoning Ordinance 05-11, passed July 25, 2005. The ordinance allowed up to 799 homes, 500 single-family and 299 multiple-family (convertible between the two), plus 50,000 square feet of amenity uses. The plan's recorded title and its conditions are covered in the zoning section below.

A 2005 development agreement between the City and Beach Road Development, L.P. covered the 294.85-acre East Bonita tract. It allowed 299 multi-family units on the roughly 104-acre lake parcel that later became Bonita Landing, so the first plan for this ground was not a single-family neighborhood at all (memorandum of the 2005 development agreement, Lee County Clerk of Court).

The area's farm past survives in the permit files: two old South Florida Water Management District agricultural permits in the area belong to Bonita Springs Tomato Farms (1999) and Corkscrew Growers.

Lennar's 2015 single-family conversion

A June 2015 amendment to the development agreement records Lennar's purchase of about 104.42 acres and converts the parcel's 299 multi-family units to 235 single-family units (amendment to the development agreement, Lee County Clerk of Court). Lennar then platted 219 lots, 16 fewer than the amendment allowed (235 allowed less 219 platted). Lennar's deed for the land and the price it paid were not found in the records we read, so this page prints neither.

2016: the district, the plat and the Declaration

Most of Bonita Landing's legal framework was put in place within one year:

• March 2, 2016: the City adopted Ordinance 16-03 on Lennar's petition, establishing the Bonita Landing Community Development District effective April 1, 2016 (30 days after adoption). Its Notice of Establishment was recorded April 13, 2016.
• April 15, 2016: the South Florida Water Management District issued Environmental Resource Permit 36-105988-P, "Bonita Landing," covering 132.04 acres.
• July 10, 2016: the surveyor's date on the plat of Bonita Landing, dedicated by Lennar Homes, LLC.
• July 22, 2016: Lennar Homes, LLC, as Declarant, made the 53-page Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Bonita Landing (Declaration, Lee County Clerk of Court).
• November 23, 2016: Tract FD1 was deeded to the Bonita Springs Fire Control and Rescue District.
• December 2016: the district issued $2,250,000 of Series 2016 special assessment bonds.

Lennar Homes, LLC dedicated both plats, made the Declaration, petitioned for the district and signed the first deeds out. No instrument we read names any other builder.

First sales and build-out, 2017 to 2021

The first recorded sales came in January 2017, the first qualified sale on January 9, 2017, and every one of them was a builder-direct sale by Lennar. In 2017 the county recorded 39 sales in Bonita Landing, all builder-direct and all in Phase 1, at a median of $390,000. In 2018 it recorded 49 sales, 48 of them builder-direct.

The county roll shows how quickly the street filled. Of the 215 homes in the county roll file, 10 were built in 2016, 35 in 2017, 49 in 2018, 55 in 2019, 54 in 2020 and 12 in 2021. The last homes were built in 2021, and the last builder-direct sales recorded were in 2021 (17 that year). Since then every recorded sale has been a resale: the county file shows no builder-direct sale in any window from 12 to 60 months to September 25, 2026, so Lennar is not selling new homes in Bonita Landing.

Unit Two, the 2018 replat

Bonita Landing's second plat, Unit Two, is dated May 10, 2018 (City case PLT18-44505-BOS). It replatted the former Tract FD-2 into home lots (Unit Two plat, Lee County Clerk of Court). The first Unit Two sale was recorded October 31, 2018, and Unit Two's homes went up mostly in 2019 and 2020. Today Unit Two holds 100 homes on the county parcel layer (99 in the county roll file) against Phase 1's 119 (116 in the roll file).

Common tracts handed to the association in 2021

On March 29, 2021 Lennar quitclaimed the road tracts, park tracts P-1 to P-4 and buffer tracts B-1 to B-4 of Bonita Landing, and road Tract A of Unit Two, to the homeowners' association (quitclaim deed, Lee County Clerk of Court). Lake Tract L, the 46.88-acre stormwater lake in the centre of the loop, is not in that deed. The Lee County Property Appraiser's cost card still names Lennar Homes, LLC as the lake's owner of record (re-checked October 12, 2026). The lake, who maintains it and the district's case over its embankment are covered in their own section of this page.

Bonita Landing timeline

What Is the Zoning and Plat Record for Bonita Landing?

Bonita Landing is zoned RPD (Residential Planned Development) in the City of Bonita Springs under Zoning Ordinance 05-11 of 2005, and its lots sit on two recorded plats, the 2016 plat of Bonita Landing and the 2018 Unit Two replat, both dedicated by Lennar Homes, LLC. All 231 Bonita Landing parcel records carry City tax district 017.

Zoning Ordinance 05-11

City of Bonita Springs Zoning Ordinance 05-11 (Lee County case DCI2004-00071), passed July 25, 2005, rezoned 294.85 acres on Bonita Beach Road SE as a Residential Planned Development allowing up to 799 homes (500 single-family and 299 multiple-family, convertible) and 50,000 square feet of amenity uses (Lee County zoning case file DCI2004-00071). The City titled the 2005 planned development "East Bonita Active Adult RPD"; the ordinance text contains no age restriction, and neither does the recorded Declaration.

Every one of the 231 Bonita Landing parcel records on the Lee County Property Appraiser's file carries zoning RPD, City MuniCode B, tax district 017 ("City of Bonita Springs / Bonita Springs Fire") and garbage district 001. That settles jurisdiction: Bonita Landing is inside the City of Bonita Springs, not unincorporated Lee County.

Conditions that still shape the land

Ordinance 05-11 attaches conditions that run with the land and that an owner of the ground may still have to meet:

• a 3.24-acre wetland preserve;
• at least 70.11 acres of open space;
• littoral (lake-edge) plantings, and an alligator management plan with lake signage;
• condition 14, an 8-foot multi-use path along the south side of Bonita Beach Road with a pedestrian crossing at each project entrance.

Whether that path was built along Bonita Landing's own frontage is not shown in the records we read, so this page does not say it exists.

The plat and what it dedicates

The plat of Bonita Landing (instrument 2016000168354, surveyor's date July 10, 2016) is dedicated by Lennar Homes, LLC (plat of Bonita Landing, Lee County Clerk of Court). It splits the land between two bodies:

• To the homeowners' association: road Tract A, the buffer tracts and park tracts P-1 to P-4.
• To the community development district: the drainage, irrigation, landscape-buffer and lake maintenance easements, and the maintenance of lake Tract L.

The plat's dedication gives the district a maintenance duty over the lake, not title to it. Title to Tract L stayed with Lennar Homes, LLC, which is still the owner of record on the county cost card. The 2018 Unit Two plat (instrument 2018000120737) added the second set of home lots on the former Tract FD-2.

Land use by acre

The 231 parcels on the county layer add up to 104.42 acres, the same figure the district gives for itself. The lake and the home lots take almost exactly the same land: 46.88 and 46.86 acres, each about 45 percent of the total (46.88 / 104.42 = 0.449).

Source: Lee County parcel layer, GIS acres summed by parcel, read October 12, 2026; the rows add to 104.41 because each is rounded to two places.

The stormwater permit

The South Florida Water Management District's Environmental Resource Permit 36-105988-P, "Bonita Landing," covers 132.04 acres and was issued April 15, 2016. An administrative modification naming the Bonita Landing Community Development District as applicant was finalized April 25, 2023, which fits the plat's assignment of lake and drainage maintenance to the district. The permit is why the lake exists: it is a stormwater management lake, and the Declaration says its water levels "are not guaranteed."

How Is Bonita Landing Governed?

Two bodies govern Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs: a homeowners' association under Chapter 720 that owns the roads and parks and maintains front yards, managed by Newell Property Management, and the Bonita Landing Community Development District, a Chapter 190 unit of local government that carries the 2016 bonds and bills on the property tax bill.

The homeowners' association

Bonita Landing Homeowner's Association, Inc. is a Florida not-for-profit corporation (document number N15000012051) filed December 23, 2015. The state's corporate records list it as active, with its latest annual report filed April 17, 2026 and no amendment to its Articles filed with the state. Newell Property Management Services LLC, based in Naples, manages it. The association's web address resolves to the manager's owner portal, which shows no public documents and no fee table.

Under the Declaration each lot pays an equal share of the association's expenses, one over the number of lots (presumed 219 until build-out), and the Board sets the budget. The Bylaws set turnover from Lennar to the owners 90 days after 90 percent of the lots are conveyed; no recorded turnover notice or date was found. Amending the Declaration takes 66 and 2/3 percent of the voting members present and voting at a meeting called for that purpose, effective when recorded. No recorded amendment could be listed from the Clerk's public index, so the governing documents on file with the association control.

The community development district

The Bonita Landing Community Development District is a Chapter 190 special district, a unit of local government, covering about 104.42 acres. It was established April 1, 2016 by City Ordinance 16-03. A five-member Board of Supervisors runs it, and Inframark (Coral Springs office) serves as district manager and records custodian.

Because it is a unit of government, the district's meetings and records are public under Florida's Sunshine and Public Records laws, as its own Questions page says. Its Board seats move to elections by resident voters under the rules in s. 190.006, Florida Statutes, covered in the CDD section below.

HOA versus CDD: who does what

Sources: Declaration, plat of Bonita Landing, 2021 quitclaim deed, district FY2027 adopted budget, Lee County Property Appraiser cost cards, all read October 12, 2026.

Meetings and public records

The district's Board meets on the second Thursday of the month at 4:30 PM at Anchor Christian Church, 11651 E. Terry St., Bonita Springs. Its next meetings are November 12 and December 10, 2026. Agenda packages, minutes, budgets and audits are public records, and the district's audited statements are also filed with the Florida Auditor General (Bonita Landing CDD audit index, Florida Auditor General). The association's meetings follow Chapter 720 rules and its documents sit behind the owner portal.

What Does It Cost to Own a Home in Bonita Landing?

The documented yearly costs of a Bonita Landing home in Bonita Springs are property tax at 12.7970 mills (2025), the community development district line of $1,510.77 or $1,634.48 for FY2027, City stormwater of $50.00 and county solid waste of $358.45 (2025). The association's dues are set by its Board and are not published.

Data updated: October 2026 (CDD FY2027 adopted budget; 2025 Lee County tax bills; City Resolution 26-027, September 23, 2026).

The fee stack

The Declaration's estoppel clause says "up to $200.00," issued within 15 days. The statute now governs the timing: an association must issue the certificate within 10 business days of a written or electronic request, and charges no fee if it is late (s. 720.30851, Florida Statutes). The statute's base is $250, plus $100 for expedited delivery and $150 if the account is delinquent, adjusted every five years; the current DBPR-adjusted caps are $299 base, $119 expedited and $179 delinquent (DBPR condominiums and cooperatives page). The 2016 text also allows a separate capitalization contribution set by Board resolution, and the $500 initial capital assessment applied to first buyers from Lennar.

Property tax: district 017

Every Bonita Landing home is in Lee County millage code 017, "City of Bonita Springs / Bonita Springs Fire." The 2025 total was 12.7970 mills, made up of these lines (2025 Taxing District Millage Book, Lee County Property Appraiser):

For FY2026-27 the City adopted 0.8411 mills, "equal to the rolled-back rate," in City Resolution 26-027 on September 23, 2026, down from 0.8470. The Property Appraiser's 2026 millage book, printed October 9, 2026, applies 1.9999 mills for the Fire District, against 2.0100 proposed (2026 Taxing District Millage Book, Lee County Property Appraiser), and a 2026 total of 12.7942 mills for district 017, against 12.7970 in 2025. Bills go out in November with discounts of 4 percent in November, 3 in December, 2 in January and 1 in February, none in March, and the district line takes the same discount because it rides on the same bill (Lee County Tax Collector property tax pages).

What three 2025 tax bills show

We read the 2025 Lee County tax bills for three Bonita Landing homes, two in Phase 1 and one in Unit Two (no account or address is printed). All three show millage code 017 at 12.7970 mills. Each carries the same non-ad valorem lines: "BONITA LANDING CDD" ($1,477.80 on the 50-foot home, $1,601.51 on the two 60-foot homes), City of Bonita Springs Stormwater $50.00 and Lee County Solid Waste Assessment $358.45. None carries a fire assessment, an MSBU or a street-light line. The bill totals were $7,019.31, $9,075.07 and $8,393.36.

Those totals differ mainly because each home's taxable value differs. Florida's homestead exemption and the Save Our Homes cap change what a given owner pays, and a buyer's bill resets after a sale, so a seller's current bill is not a buyer's future bill.

A worked yearly example

Two pieces can be worked from the record, shown with their inputs.

1. Ad valorem tax, illustration only. 12.7970 mills on $637,500 (the 24-month median sale price, Lee County recorded sales to September 25, 2026) is 637,500 x 12.7970 / 1,000 = $8,158.09 a year, at 2025 millage and before any exemption.
2. Known yearly charges. The FY2027 district line plus the 2025 City and county lines: $1,510.77 + $50.00 + $358.45 = $1,919.22 for the 50-foot product, or $1,634.48 + $50.00 + $358.45 = $2,042.93 for the 60-foot product.

Together that is about $10,077.31 ($8,158.09 + $1,919.22) or $10,201.02 ($8,158.09 + $2,042.93) a year, before association dues (not published), insurance and any exemption. The 2026 City and county line amounts are not yet published, so the 2025 amounts stand in, labelled.

What the association's dues are, and where to find them

The association's dues amount is not published in any public document we read; the owner portal sits behind a login. Three documents carry it for a given home. Before a contract, a seller must give the buyer the association disclosure summary, and a buyer who does not receive it may void the contract before closing (s. 720.401, Florida Statutes). At closing, the estoppel certificate states the assessment, any amount owed and the current transfer charges. The manager's site sends estoppel and bank questionnaire orders to HomeWiseDocs. And since January 1, 2025, an association with 100 or more parcels must post listed documents, including the annual budget, on a website or app (s. 720.303, Florida Statutes); Bonita Landing's portal is owner-login.

The BERT bond and the 2026 bills

On August 18, 2026, City voters approved up to $35,000,000 of general obligation bonds for the Bonita Estero Rail Trail corridor (City Ordinance 26-05). The per-home cost of that bond for a Bonita Landing home is not published. The 2026 City stormwater and county solid waste amounts are not yet published either; the November 2026 tax bills will show both.

What Is the Bonita Landing CDD and How Long Does Its Debt Run?

The Bonita Landing Community Development District is a Chapter 190 special district in Bonita Springs, created in 2016, that issued $2,250,000 of Series 2016 bonds. Its FY2027 line is $1,510.77 for the 50-foot product and $1,634.48 for the 60-foot product, and $1,895,000 of the bonds was outstanding in October 2026, maturing December 15, 2047.

Data updated: October 2026 (CDD FY2027 adopted budget, file dated May 14, 2026; CDD FY2026 adopted budget, August 14, 2025; FY2025 audit, Florida Auditor General).

FY2027 assessment table

The 125 and 94 units add to the community's 219 homes. The whole FY2027 increase is in operations: the general fund rose from $856.76 to $889.73, up $32.97 a unit (3.85 percent), while debt service did not change. On a monthly basis the line works out to $125.90 ($1,510.77 / 12) or $136.21 ($1,634.48 / 12), but the district bills once a year on the property tax bill, not monthly. The district's own Questions page explains the split: the operations part "can fluctuate up and down," while the capital (debt) part is "generally fixed for the term of the bonds."

Why the 60-foot product pays more

The 60-foot product pays $123.71 a year more than the 50-foot product ($744.75 less $621.04), and all of that difference is debt service; operations are the same $889.73 for both. No public record we read assigns a width to a given lot, and both products occur in both plats: the 2025 tax bills we read include a Phase 1 home billed at the 50-foot rate and a Phase 1 and a Unit Two home billed at the 60-foot rate. To tell which product a home is, read the "BONITA LANDING CDD" line on its tax bill: $1,477.80 in 2025 means the 50-foot product, $1,601.51 the 60-foot product.

The Series 2016 bonds

The district issued $2,250,000 of Series 2016 special assessment bonds in December 2016, at interest rates from 3.25 to 4.625 percent, with a final maturity of December 15, 2047. Principal is paid each December 15. By the district's amortization schedule, $1,895,000 was outstanding on October 12, 2026, and $1,840,000 remains after the $55,000 payment due December 15, 2026 (FY2025 audit, Florida Auditor General). The audit gives an unmodified opinion and reports the bonds in compliance with their indenture.

The debt service line on every bill is what repays these bonds, so it runs until the bonds are retired in 2047 unless they are paid down early.

Paying off a lot's bond share

The district publishes no prepayment procedure and no payoff figure for an individual lot. The bonds are subject to optional redemption, and a payoff figure for a given lot comes from the district manager on written request. An owner weighing a payoff compares that written figure against the remaining yearly debt service line, $621.04 or $744.75 in FY2027.

The district's budget and its lawsuit line

Two items in the district's records sit side by side. The FY2027 budget adds a $34,500 "ProfServ-Legal Litigation" line, and FY2026 legal services were projected at $74,907.73 against an $8,500 budget. In its March 19, 2026 minutes, the Board said the FY2027 increase, about $33 a year a home, was mainly management and insurance, not legal.

The Bonita Landing CDD sued Lennar Homes, LLC in circuit court (case 2024-CA-007567) over the lake embankment; the district's audited statements say the outcome cannot be determined. On August 13, 2026, on counsel's advice, the Board authorised staff to prepare a survey of the pond. The lake and the case are covered in full in their own section of this page.

Bonita Beach Road corridor costs

The district budgets $9,500 a year (FY2026 and FY2027) for "Shared Maintenance Costs." The line covers a panther mitigation property in LaBelle (carried since FY2017; its monitoring period ended in 2020) and common infrastructure along Bonita Beach Road (landscaping, roadway and stormwater, with street lighting added in 2021), shared with neighbouring communities by interlocal agreement.

A second district records the same program differently. The East Bonita Beach Road CDD's audited statements for the year ended September 30, 2025 (Note 5) record a cost-sharing agreement dated June 2, 2017 among that district (14 percent), Beach Road Golf Estates CDD (46 percent), the Bonita Landing CDD (7 percent) and Valencia Bonita HOA (33 percent). The East Bonita Beach Road CDD's FY2027 adopted budget lists the shared four-party program at $247,000, including a $75,000 "Beach Road engineering condition report." The documents we read do not reconcile the two districts' figures, so this page prints each as recorded and does not derive a Bonita Landing amount from the other district's budget.

How a CDD is disclosed at sale

Florida law requires every contract for the initial sale of a home in a community development district to carry a bold notice that the district may impose taxes or assessments (s. 190.048, Florida Statutes). Bonita Landing's Declaration (section 11.2) goes further and obliges every owner to disclose the district in writing to any buyer, so the notice follows each resale as well as the first sale.

Who elects the CDD board

Under s. 190.006, Florida Statutes, a district's Board seats move to election by resident qualified electors once the district is 6 years old and has 250 qualified electors. The district's October 8, 2026 agenda package carries Resolution 2026-05, which asks the Lee County Supervisor of Elections to hold the district's election for Seats 2, 3 and 4, each a 4-year term. The Lee County Supervisor of Elections lists Bonita Landing Community Development District Seats 2, 3 and 4 on the November 3, 2026 General Election ballot, each for a four-year term from 2026 to 2030 (Lee County Supervisor of Elections, Offices to Be Elected, read October 12, 2026).

What Rules Apply to Owners and Renters in Bonita Landing?

The recorded 2016 Declaration of Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs sets a 30-day minimum lease, allows up to three cats or dogs, keeps boats, RVs and work vehicles in garages, requires architectural approval for exterior changes, and has the association maintain front lawns while owners maintain roofs and paint; it contains no age restriction.

Leasing and short stays

The Declaration sets a minimum lease of 30 consecutive days, in writing, with a copy to the association at least 15 days before the term starts. Subleasing and assignment are not allowed, and occupancy under a lease is limited to the tenant, spouse and unmarried children. The Board may adopt a lease-approval procedure. Use of a home as a public lodging establishment is a prohibited business use, so stays under 30 days are not permitted (Declaration, Lee County Clerk of Court).

Florida law limits how a later amendment can change that. Under s. 720.306(1)(h), Florida Statutes, a rental amendment adopted after July 1, 2021 binds only owners who take title afterward or who consent, except a limit on rentals under 6 months or more than three a year. Bonita Landing's 30-day minimum is in the original Declaration, not an amendment.

Two records speak to approvals, and neither settles the other. The association's portal has a Rental Application page and a Buyer Application page, both run through the manager's ApplyToMove screening portal, with fees and criteria not public. The recorded Declaration contains no approval of sales and no right of first refusal. The estoppel and the association's current rules show what applies to a given sale or lease.

Pets

An owner may keep up to three domestic cats or dogs in total, plus fish and up to two household birds kept indoors. Pit bull and pit bull mix dogs and "other recognized aggressive breeds" may be prohibited at the Board's discretion. In common areas, pets stay on a leash no longer than 6 feet.

Vehicles, boats and parking

No commercial vehicle, boat, trailer, RV or motorcycle may be kept on a lot unless it is in the garage, and no vehicle may park on the grass. Every home in Bonita Landing has a garage on the county layer, which is where these vehicles have to live.

Architectural approval

Any exterior change, fence, landscaping change or colour change needs prior written approval. Driveways must be pavers or another approved hard surface. Homes may be no more than two stories or 45 feet, with at least 900 square feet of air-conditioned area. The Board's written architectural guidelines are not public, so a buyer planning a pool cage, fence or colour change asks for them before closing.

Hurricane shutters and impact windows

The 2016 Declaration (section 5.10) allows storm shutters only temporarily, during a storm threat, unless approved. Florida law now goes further for owners. Under s. 720.3035(6), Florida Statutes, the board or its committee must adopt hurricane protection specifications and may not deny an application that conforms to them. The protections covered include permanent fixed or roll-down shutters, impact windows and doors, polycarbonate panels, reinforced garage doors, roof systems meeting ASCE 7-22 and fixed generators. The statute governs over the Declaration. Whether Bonita Landing's Board has adopted specifications is not public.

Signs and flags

The Declaration bars any sign, including "for sale" or "for rent" signs, without architectural approval. State law sets a floor the Declaration cannot remove: under s. 720.304, Florida Statutes, an owner may display specified flags (up to two, no larger than 4.5 by 6 feet) and a freestanding flagpole up to 20 feet, and may place a security-company sign within 10 feet of an entrance.

Who maintains what on a lot

Source: Declaration sections 5.14, 8.6 and 8.7, read October 12, 2026. The association's share is a common expense, paid through the dues.

Occupancy and home size rules

A home may be occupied by no more than two persons per bedroom plus two, and by no more than three unrelated persons. On size, every home must have at least 900 square feet of air-conditioned area and stand no more than two stories or 45 feet. Each owner must also insure the home to full replacement cost, begin repairs within 6 months of a casualty and finish them within 9 months.

Fines, late fees and liens

A late payment carries a late fee of the greater of $25 or 5 percent of the amount, interest at the maximum lawful rate "(currently 18%)," and the association's lien, foreclosable under s. 720.3085, Florida Statutes. Fines run up to $100 per violation per day, up to $5,000 for a continuing violation, and only after 14 days' notice and a hearing before a committee of three owners who are not on the Board. Reserves are optional under the Declaration: the Board may fund them but is not required to.

Age rules

No age restriction appears in the recorded Declaration, Articles or Bylaws; recorded amendments could not be listed, so the governing documents control.

The "5 year rule" for Florida HOAs

There is no five-year dues rule in Chapter 720. We read s. 720.306, Florida Statutes and the estoppel statute, and neither limits assessments, capital contributions or dues increases to a five-year cycle. The real five-year items are narrower: an action to void an amendment must be brought within the five-year windows the statute sets, a board candidate whose civil rights were restored must have had them back for at least 5 years, and the DBPR adjusts the estoppel fee caps every five years. Bonita Landing's Declaration contains no five-year rule of its own.

How Do Phase 1 and Unit Two of Bonita Landing Compare?

In Bonita Springs, Bonita Landing's Phase 1 (2016 plat, 119 homes) and Unit Two (2018 replat, 100 homes) share one association, Declaration, district, builder and street; Unit Two leans to smaller plans, which is why its 24-month median ($595,750) sits below Phase 1's ($698,500) on 10 sales each in the Lee County record.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026; county roll dated October 11, 2026).

What is the same in both plats

Phase 1 and Unit Two are one community on paper and on the ground. Lennar Homes, LLC dedicated both plats; both sit under the same 2016 Declaration and the same homeowners' association; both are inside the same community development district and pay from the same FY2027 table; and both front the one loop street, Bonita Landing Circle. Both district products, 50-foot and 60-foot, occur in both plats on the 2025 tax bills we read. For a buyer, the plat changes nothing about rules, fees or amenities. It changes only which homes were built where.

Prices by plat, same window

Source: Lee County recorded sales, the 24 months (2024-09-26 to 2026-09-25) and 60 months to September 25, 2026; prices per square foot of county heated area over 24 months were $306.33 (Phase 1) and $299.87 (Unit Two). Compare rows only within the same window.

Why the gap is plan mix

The gap between the plats is mostly about which plans were built in each. Phase 1 holds 71 of the 101 homes of 2,251 square feet or more, while Unit Two holds 69 of its 99 roll homes at 2,202 square feet or less (so Phase 1 has 45 smaller homes, 116 less 71). When the comparison is held to the smaller plans, the order reverses: at 60 months, Phase 1 recorded 11 sales of homes of 2,202 square feet or less at a $612,000 median, and Unit Two recorded 30 at $632,500. The price per square foot of county heated area over 24 months is also close, $306.33 against $299.87. The plat on its own does not set the price; the plan does.

50-foot and 60-foot products

The district's table divides the 219 homes into 125 units of the "SF 50'" product and 94 of the "SF 60'" product. The only cost difference is debt service, $123.71 a year more for the 60-foot product ($744.75 less $621.04). No public record we read assigns a width to a given lot, and both products appear in both plats, so the plat is not a guide to the product. The "BONITA LANDING CDD" line on a home's tax bill is.

Lake-tract lots against the rest

Of the 215 homes in the county roll file, 99 sit on lots that touch the lake tract, measured from county parcel lines. Their record shows no consistent premium over the other 116 homes:

• 24 months: 10 lake-tract sales at a $637,500 median ($590,000 to $900,000), $324.92 per square foot of county heated area, against 10 other sales at $620,750 ($530,000 to $730,000), $277.68.
• 36 months: 17 lake-tract sales at $640,000 against 21 at $655,000.
• 60 months: 31 lake-tract sales at $750,000 against 39 at $670,000.

The lake-tract group led in two windows and trailed in one, and the plans differ from lot to lot, so the record does not support saying lake-tract lots sell for more in Bonita Landing. A given home is priced on its own plan, condition, pool and view against the recent sales of the same plan.

What Amenities Does Bonita Landing Have?

Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs has modest, outdoor shared amenities: a lakeside park on the north shore with a pier, a covered pavilion, a restroom building and a small parking area, all recorded by the county as built in 2017, plus a fenced playground at the northwest corner. Nothing else shared is built on any record we read.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser cost cards for the Bonita Landing common tracts and the association's photo gallery, read October 12, 2026).

Bonita Landing was laid out by Lennar Homes, LLC as a ring of homes around a stormwater lake, and the shared land reflects that plan. The lake itself takes 46.88 acres of the roughly 104 acres, the home lots take 46.86 acres, and the rest is the private road, four small park tracts and landscaped buffers. The amenities a buyer will actually use are on those park tracts, and the county's own cost cards are the best record of what is built on them.

The lakeside park

The main amenity in Bonita Landing is park Tract P1, a 0.54 acre parcel on the north shore of the lake owned by the homeowners' association. The Lee County Property Appraiser cost card for that tract, generated October 12, 2026, records five improvements, all with a 2017 build year:

• a restroom building of 148 square feet with a 334 square foot open porch;
• a pier of 420 square feet reaching out over the lake;
• a pavilion or covered picnic area of 180 square feet;
• 2,500 square feet of blacktop parking.

That is the whole built list on the card. The pier is a structure on the record; what owners may do from it is a separate question that the recorded Declaration answers only in general terms (see the lake section below). Park hours and use rules are set by the association and are not published in the records we read.

The playground and the other park tracts

The second amenity is a fenced playground at the northwest corner of Bonita Landing. It shows in the association's own photo gallery (photos uploaded January 29, 2026) and on the 2025 county aerial, at the position of park Tract P4. The P4 cost card itself lists no improvements, so the playground is documented by the association's photographs and the aerial rather than by the county's improvement list.

The other park tracts are open green space. Tract P2 is 0.48 acre, Tract P3 is 0.41 acre and shows a looped garden path on the 2025 aerial, and Tract P4 is 0.25 acre. Together the four park tracts come to 1.68 acres. Buffer tracts along the edges and the private roads complete the common land. Every one of those tracts is owned by the association.

What is not here

Bonita Landing is not an amenity-club community, and buyers comparing it with nearby master plans should know the absences before a showing. None of the following appears on any county cost card, in the association's photo gallery or on the 2025 aerial:

• a clubhouse, community pool or fitness room;
• any sports court, bocce lawn or basketball court;
• a dog park;
• golf, a marina, a boat ramp, boat slips or boat and RV storage;
• a gatehouse.

Private pools are common instead. Of the 215 homes in the county roll file, 157 carry the county's private-pool record, which is 73.0 percent (157 / 215): 79 of 116 homes in Phase 1 and 78 of 99 in Unit Two. A buyer who wants a pool in Bonita Landing is looking at a home with its own, not a shared one.

Who owns and pays for the parks

The association owns the parks, the private roads and the buffers. On March 29, 2021 Lennar quitclaimed the road tracts, park tracts P1 to P4 and buffer tracts B1 to B4 of the original plat, and road Tract A of Unit Two, to the association (Lee County Clerk, quitclaim deed, instrument 2021000098881). The lake was not in that deed, which is why the lake has its own section below.

Under the recorded Declaration, the association maintains the common areas, the street lights on association property, the lawns, shrubs, trees and landscaping installed with each home on the front and accessible parts of each lot, and each lot's irrigation equipment, all as a common expense shared by the owners (Lee County Clerk, Declaration of Covenants, instrument 2016000168355). So the restroom, the pier, the pavilion and the playground are paid for through the association's assessment, not through the community development district's line on the tax bill.

The entrance

Bonita Landing has one entrance, on the south side of Bonita Beach Road SE. The 2025 aerial and the association's photographs show a divided entry with a landscaped median and a stone monument sign. The cost card for the road tract records no gatehouse or gate, and the recorded Declaration contains no gate provision. Whether the entry has gate arms, a call box or a card reader is not shown in the records we read.

Next to the entrance is Bonita Springs Fire Control and Rescue District Station 26, at 16001 Bonita Beach Rd SE. It sits about 0.23 mile in a straight line from the entry, about 0.3 mile and one minute by road, and the whole community is inside its response zone.

Who Owns the Lake at Bonita Landing, and What Is the Lake Lawsuit?

Bonita Landing's 46.88-acre lake, Tract L, is owned of record by Lennar Homes, LLC. The recorded plat gives the Bonita Landing Community Development District the lake maintenance easements, and the district has sued Lennar in circuit court over the lake embankment (case 2024-CA-007567), a case whose outcome the district's audit says cannot be determined.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser cost card for Tract L, generated October 12, 2026; Bonita Landing CDD September 10 and October 8, 2026 agenda packages; FY2025 audit filed with the Florida Auditor General).

The lake is the centre of Bonita Landing in every sense: it fills the middle of the loop, 99 of the 215 homes in the county roll file sit on lots that touch it (46.0 percent, 99 / 215), and it is part of the stormwater system that drains the community. Three separate public records describe it, and they answer three different questions: who holds title, who maintains it, and what dispute exists over its banks.

Who holds title and who maintains

Title first. The Lee County Property Appraiser cost card for Tract L, re-checked on October 12, 2026, lists the owner of record as Lennar Homes, LLC, with a land use of "LAKE" and an area of 46.88 acres. The 2021 deed that moved the roads, parks and buffers to the association did not include Tract L, so the lake stayed in the builder's name.

Maintenance is assigned differently. The recorded plat dedicates the lake maintenance easements, and the maintenance of Tract L, to the community development district (Lee County Clerk, Plat of Bonita Landing, instrument 2016000168354). The district's minutes of March 19, 2026 record that "the District will eventually be responsible for all lake maintenance". The district's FY2027 adopted budget has no separate lake-maintenance line.

So the plain summary for a buyer is: Lennar holds title of record, the plat points maintenance to the district, and the association owns the parks around the shore.

The case in the public record

The Bonita Landing Community Development District sued Lennar Homes, LLC in circuit court (case 2024-CA-007567) over the lake embankment. The case caption appears on process-server invoices in the district's September 10, 2026 agenda package. The county of the court is not printed on those invoices, so this page says only "circuit court".

The district's audited financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2025 describe the case this way: "a lawsuit was filed against Lennar Homes, LLC (the Developer) over its failure to properly maintain the lake embankment during its tenure of governance of the District. The embankment had yet to be corrected. As of the report date, the outcome cannot be determined" (Florida Auditor General, Bonita Landing CDD FY2025 audit). That is the district's own statement, quoted with attribution; it is not a finding by any court. The same audit gives the district an unmodified opinion and reports its bonds in compliance with the indenture.

What the district has budgeted and done

Two budget facts and one board action are on the record. The FY2027 adopted budget adds a $34,500 line titled "ProfServ-Legal Litigation". For FY2026, legal services were projected at $74,907.73 against an $8,500 budget. In its March 19, 2026 minutes the Board said the FY2027 increase in the assessment, about $33 a year a home, came mainly from management and insurance, not legal costs.

The board action came on August 13, 2026: on counsel's advice the Board authorised staff to prepare a survey of the pond, by a 4 to 0 vote. The survey's results are not in the records we read.

What the case does and does not tell a buyer

The record shows the parties, the court level, the case number, the subject (the lake embankment) and an outcome the district's auditors call undetermined. It does not show any court finding, any claim amount or damages, a schedule, any cost passed to owners, or any effect on homes. Nothing in the record links the case to flooding at any home.

For a buyer, the practical reading is that this is a district matter with a budget line, and the next facts will appear in district documents. The district's most recent minutes and agenda packages are where any change shows first, and the estoppel certificate and the seller's disclosures at contract are the transaction documents where anything new should surface. A survey result or an engineer's report on the lake bank, if one is produced, would arrive the same way.

Using the lake

The recorded Declaration is restrictive about the water. "No Owner may use the lakes ... except as may be permitted from time to time by the Association or the CDD", and boats powered by gasoline or diesel are not allowed (Declaration, instrument 2016000168355). The association's or the district's current permissions for fishing, paddling or swimming are not published in the records we read, so this page does not say any of those uses is allowed. The association's current rules are the document to read.

The lake as part of the drainage system

Tract L is a stormwater management lake, and it sits inside a permitted water management system. The South Florida Water Management District issued Environmental Resource Permit 36-105988-P, "Bonita Landing", covering 132.04 acres, on April 15, 2016; an administrative modification with the Bonita Landing CDD as applicant was finalized April 25, 2023.

The Declaration states that lake water levels "are not guaranteed", that owners may not draw water from the lakes or retention areas, and that private wells are not allowed. Because levels are not guaranteed, the shoreline behind a lakefront home is not a fixed line, and the recorded Declaration is the document that says so.

Is There Golf, a Marina or Beach Access Near Bonita Landing?

Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs has no golf course, marina, boat ramp or beach of its own. Bonita National's course sits about a mile east, the nearest public boat ramp is Lee County's Imperial River ramp about 8.2 miles away, and Bonita Beach Park is about 10 miles and 20 minutes by road.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Parks pages and Lee County GIS read October 12, 2026; estimated free-flow drive times from the Bonita Landing entrance on Bonita Beach Road SE, OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap roads, no traffic, October 12, 2026).

Everything in this section is outside the community, and none of it comes with a Bonita Landing home. The distances below are measured from the entrance on Bonita Beach Road SE and are free-flow estimates; season and time of day add to them.

Golf nearby

There is no golf inside Bonita Landing. The nearest course is Bonita National, whose course parcels lie about a mile east (about 1.3 miles and 4 minutes by road from the entrance). The club's own golf page describes a par 72 Gordon Lewis design with 10 sets of tees from 4,488 to 6,988 yards. Palmira is about 2.8 miles and 9 minutes away, and Quail West about 5.0 miles and 15 minutes.

Each of those is a separate club that sets its own membership terms, and we did not read those terms for this page. Owning a home in Bonita Landing gives no golf membership or access at any of them.

Boating

Bonita Landing has no boat access: the lake is a stormwater lake with no gasoline or diesel boats permitted, and there is no ramp, dock or slip. The nearest public launch is Lee County's Imperial River Boat Ramp on US 41 (27551 S Tamiami Trl), about 8.2 miles and 18 minutes from the entrance. The county charges $5 per vehicle per day, and the Lee County annual pass is valid there (Lee County Parks, Imperial River Boat Ramp, read October 12, 2026). Boat and RV storage are not among the community's facilities on any record we read.

Beaches and beach parking this season

Bonita Beach Park is about 10.0 miles and 20 minutes from the Bonita Landing entrance, and beach parking on Bonita Beach is changing this season while Lee County repairs Hurricane Ian damage. As of the Lee County Parks pages read October 12, 2026:

• Bonita Beach Park's parking lot and amenities have been closed since September 8, 2026 for Ian repairs (Lee County Parks, Bonita Beach Park).
• The Beach Access #1 lot closes November 1, 2026, with pedestrian access to the beach staying open (Lee County Parks, Bonita Beach Access #1).
• Accesses #2 to #9 are free to park (Lee County Parks, Bonita Beach Accesses).
• Little Hickory Island Beach Park (Access #10) has had its lot and amenities closed since September 8, 2026, with pedestrian access open (Lee County Parks, Little Hickory Island Beach Park).

For a Bonita Landing household that means the free numbered Accesses #2 to #9 are the practical parking this season, and the county pages show any change first.

Barefoot Beach and Lovers Key

Lovers Key State Park is about 15.6 miles and 31 minutes from the Bonita Landing entrance, free-flow. Barefoot Beach is a Collier County beach park; this page does not carry a measured drive time or facility details for it, and we did not read the facility pages for either park for this page, so their hours, fees and parking are not stated here.

How Do Hurricanes Affect Bonita Landing?

Bonita Landing's homes were built from 2016 to 2021 under Florida Building Code editions with wind-borne debris rules, in a 160 mph design-wind area and Lee County evacuation zone D. The National Hurricane Center records Ian's worst surge along the Bonita and North Naples coastline, and no public county damage record falls inside the community.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County evacuation and Lee County Property Appraiser hazard layers queried October 12, 2026; National Hurricane Center tropical cyclone reports; county roll dated October 11, 2026).

Lee County's own evacuation sheet frames Zone D first as a wind exposure, and the records below set out what is known for Bonita Landing without turning any of it into a promise. Every figure comes from a county layer, the state building code record or the National Hurricane Center.

Evacuation zone D

All 15 points we tested in Bonita Landing fall in Lee County evacuation zone D and storm surge zone 4 on the county's evacuation layers, queried October 12, 2026. Lee County's own Zone D sheet says: "Zone D is one of our least vulnerable Evacuation Zones"; "Wind, including tornados, is the most significant danger in Zone D"; and "Zone D will be one of the last areas evacuated" (Lee County Emergency Management, Zone D sheet). Those are the county's words. Evacuation orders are issued storm by storm, and the county's order for a given storm controls.

Wind design and building codes

The Lee County Property Appraiser's hazard layer gives a design wind speed of 160 mph for Risk Category II buildings (homes) at every point tested, and the whole community is inside the wind-borne debris region.

Bonita Landing's homes were built from 2016 to 2021. The Florida Building Code edition that applied to each home depends on its permit date, which the county roll does not carry, so the table below shows the edition in force during each build year rather than a per-home answer. Edition dates: 5th Edition (2014) from June 30, 2015; 6th Edition (2017) from December 31, 2017; 7th Edition (2020) from December 31, 2020; 8th Edition (2023) from December 31, 2023.

The 215 are the homes in the county roll file; the community has 219 single-family homes, and the four not in the roll extract were also built from 2017 to 2020. The City of Bonita Springs permit file for a specific home shows its actual permit date and edition.

Irma, Ian, Helene and Milton in the record

The National Hurricane Center's reports are the record this page uses. Irma made its final Florida landfall near Marco Island on September 10, 2017 as a Category 3 (NHC, Hurricane Irma report). Ian made landfall in southwest Florida at Category 4 on September 28, 2022; the NHC reports maximum inundation of 8 to 12 feet above ground in Estero, Bonita Beach, Bonita Springs and North Naples, with "the most severe impacts ... contained to the immediate coastline" in Bonita and North Naples (NHC, Hurricane Ian report). Milton made landfall on Siesta Key on October 10, 2024 as a Category 3 (NHC, Hurricane Milton report). We also read the NHC's Helene report (NHC, Hurricane Helene report); it gives no Bonita Landing measurement, so this page prints no Helene figure.

Lee County's public damage-assessment layers return no record inside Bonita Landing (queried October 12, 2026). Those layers are partial, so that is not proof that no home was damaged; storm damage or a storm-related special assessment specific to Bonita Landing is not in the records we read.

Roofs

The recorded Declaration's clause on washing tile roofs indicates tile roofs as built in Bonita Landing; the roof covering of any single home is not printed here, and the home's own permit file and inspection show it. Roof age matters for insurance. Under section 627.7011(5), Florida Statutes, an insurer may not refuse to issue or renew a homeowner policy solely because the roof is under 15 years old (Florida Statutes 627.7011). Original roofs in Bonita Landing, put on from 2016 to 2021, reach 15 years from 2031 to 2036. Under the Declaration the owner, not the association, maintains the roof.

Shutters and impact glass

The recorded Declaration allows temporary storm shutters during a storm threat only, unless approved. Florida law now overrides that where it conflicts: under section 720.3035(6), Florida Statutes, the board or its committee must adopt hurricane protection specifications and may not deny an application that conforms to them, covering permanent fixed or roll-down shutters, impact windows and doors, polycarbonate panels, reinforced garage doors, roof systems meeting ASCE 7-22 and fixed generators (Florida Statutes 720.3035). Whether the Bonita Landing board has adopted its specifications is not public. The rules section above covers the approval process (What Rules Apply to Owners and Renters in Bonita Landing?).

Fire station next door

Bonita Springs Fire Control and Rescue District Station 26 sits beside the Bonita Landing entrance on Bonita Beach Road SE, about 0.3 mile and one minute by road, and the whole community is in its response zone. The fire district's own site states an ISO rating of 2. Both facts belong in a quote request for a Bonita Landing home.

What Flood Zone Is Bonita Landing In?

Every sampled point and every parcel record we tested in Bonita Landing, Bonita Springs, is in Zone X, area of minimal flood hazard, on FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer (October 12, 2026), on Lee County panels 12071C0679F and 12071C0685F effective August 28, 2008. No pending or preliminary map change reaches the community.

Data updated: October 2026 (FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer read October 12, 2026; Lee County panels effective August 28, 2008).

A flood zone is a statement about a mapped probability, not a promise about any storm, so this section shows exactly how the answer was reached and what it does not cover.

How we tested the map

We queried FEMA's live National Flood Hazard Layer on October 12, 2026 at 15 points spread across Bonita Landing: seven lots at the edges and middle of the community, four lots on the lake edge, two corner lots, the centre of the lake and the entrance. Every point returned Zone X, "area of minimal flood hazard", with no base flood elevation.

We then tested the whole community, not just the points. All 231 Bonita Landing parcel records (the 219 homes plus the 12 common tracts) and all 2,531 vertices of their boundaries fall inside the same Zone X polygon. No lot line, including those at the lake bank, touches a mapped special flood hazard area on the effective map.

Panels and pending changes

The west side of Bonita Landing is on Lee County flood map panel 12071C0679F and the centre and east on 12071C0685F, both effective August 28, 2008. FEMA lists both as "not printed" because they contain no special flood hazard area. Collier County panels overlap FEMA's panel index near the county line, but the flood zone at every point is the Lee County polygon, so the Lee panels govern.

No change is coming to those panels. FEMA's pending layer has no polygon at Bonita Landing, and Lee County's map revision effective March 2, 2027 (LOMR 20-04-0036S) changes six other panels, not 0679 or 0685 (Lee County, 2026/2027 FEMA proposed flood map revisions). No letter of map revision or amendment applies inside the community.

The nearest high-risk zone

The nearest mapped special flood hazard area to Bonita Landing is in Collier County, about 1.1 kilometres (0.7 mile) south of the community, computed from the FEMA layer. Everything between Bonita Landing and that area is Zone X on the effective map.

Ground height

USGS 3DEP lidar, acquired in 2018, puts ground elevation at the centre of each of the 219 lots between 17.8 and 19.3 feet, with a median of 18.4 feet. That is ground at the centre of each lot, not the elevation of a finished floor, and it is not a measure of any storm's water level.

Elevation certificates

An elevation certificate, where one exists, records a home's finished-floor elevation. The City of Bonita Springs holds elevation certificates where they exist; for a specific Bonita Landing home, ask for the certificate for that home. Finished-floor elevations per home are not in the records we read.

How Does Insurance Work for Bonita Landing Homes?

Each Bonita Landing owner in Bonita Springs insures the home to full replacement cost under the recorded Declaration. From January 1, 2027, Citizens requires flood coverage on every new and renewing personal residential policy that includes wind coverage, whatever the zone (condominium unit-owner, tenant contents and wind-excluded policies are exempt). The City's CRS class gives a 10 percent NFIP discount outside the high-risk zone, and no premium is published.

Data updated: October 2026 (Declaration of Covenants, 2016; Citizens Property Insurance flood page and release read October 12, 2026; FEMA Community Status Book page dated October 10, 2026).

Insurance in Bonita Landing is an owner's policy on a single-family home. The records below set the obligations and the discounts; the price is set by a carrier quote on the specific home.

What the Declaration requires

The recorded Declaration requires each owner to insure the home to full replacement cost, and after a casualty to begin repairs within 6 months and finish within 9 months (Declaration, instrument 2016000168355). It also lets the association be named as an additional insured on an owner's property or flood policy; each owner insures the home.

Citizens and flood coverage

Citizens Property Insurance is phasing in a flood requirement. In its own words on its flood page, read October 12, 2026: from January 1, 2027 Citizens requires flood coverage on every new and renewing personal residential policy that includes wind coverage, whatever the zone (condominium unit-owner, tenant contents and wind-excluded policies are exempt). The requirement already applies from January 1, 2026 where Coverage A is $400,000 or more.

Every Bonita Landing home is single-family, so the rule reaches a Citizens wind policy on any home here, even though the whole community is in Zone X. An owner insured through Citizens should plan for a flood policy at the first renewal on or after January 1, 2027, or sooner where Coverage A is $400,000 or more.

NFIP and the City's CRS class

The City of Bonita Springs is Class 5 in FEMA's Community Rating System (FEMA Community Status Book, page dated October 10, 2026). FEMA's Class 5 discount for policies outside the special flood hazard area is 10 percent (FEMA, Community Rating System). Every Bonita Landing parcel is outside the special flood hazard area, so the discount that applies to a National Flood Insurance Program policy here is 10 percent.

Roof age and wind mitigation

Roof age is the insurance question most likely to change over an ownership. Bonita Landing's original roofs date from 2016 to 2021 and reach 15 years from 2031 to 2036; until then, section 627.7011(5) bars an insurer from refusing to issue or renew solely because of a roof under 15 years old. The uniform mitigation verification form is the home's own document, and a seller who has one can share it; this page prints no credit figures.

My Safe Florida Home

My Safe Florida Home grants under section 215.5586, Florida Statutes, are limited to homes built before January 1, 2008 (Florida Statutes 215.5586). Every Bonita Landing home was built from 2016 to 2021, so no home here qualifies for a grant. A homesteaded owner may still qualify for the program's free inspection.

What a Bonita Landing policy costs

No homeowner or flood insurance premium for Bonita Landing is published, and this page does not estimate one. The figure that counts is a carrier quote on the specific home, and the inputs a carrier asks for are on the record above: Zone X on panels 12071C0679F or 12071C0685F, evacuation zone D, 160 mph design wind, the build year and roof age, the wind mitigation form, Station 26 beside the entrance with the fire district's stated ISO rating of 2, and for an NFIP policy the City's 10 percent CRS discount outside the high-risk zone.

What Schools Serve Bonita Landing?

Every Bonita Landing address we tested in the School District of Lee County's own lookup returned Elementary Zone Q, Middle Zone GG and High School South Zone 3 for 2026-27. The nearest zone school to Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs, Bonita Springs Elementary, is about 6.5 miles and 15 minutes from the entrance.

Data updated: October 2026 (School District of Lee County 2026-27 zone data in the SchoolSite Locator and the Student Enrollment Plan 2026-2027; Florida Department of Education 2025-26 school grades; free-flow drive times from the entrance; all read October 12, 2026).

We ran 13 tests through the district's SchoolSite Locator on October 12, 2026: six addresses spread around Bonita Landing Circle in both plats, plus seven sample points across the community. Every test came back the same way: the South Zone, sub-zone 3, with Elementary Zone Q, Middle Zone GG and High School South Zone 3. We do not print house numbers, and we say "every address we tested" because a zone line is a district decision, not a property fact. The district can redraw it, so the lookup is worth running again for the specific home at contract.

How assignment works in Lee County

Lee County does not tie one school to one address. It assigns a choice zone, and the household ranks the schools inside that zone. A zone is a list of choices, not a guaranteed seat: when a school receives more requests than it has seats, the district's selection procedures decide who is placed. The rules for 2026-27 sit in the district's Student Enrollment Plan 2026-2027, which the School Board approved on December 1, 2025, and on the district's School Zones page.

For Bonita Landing the lists are short and fixed by that plan. Elementary Zone Q offers five schools: Bonita Springs, Pinewoods, San Carlos Park, Spring Creek and Three Oaks elementary schools. Middle Zone GG offers two: Bonita Springs Middle Center for the Arts and Three Oaks Middle. High School South Zone sub-zone 3 offers three: Bonita Springs High, Estero High and South Fort Myers High, with Dunbar High available by waiver.

The zone schools

The table pairs each school on the Bonita Landing lists with its level, the Florida Department of Education's 2025-26 letter grade as published and the routed distance from the community entrance where we measured it. We do not rank schools; the grades are the state's.

Read across the rows and the pattern is clear. The three Bonita Springs schools, one at each level, are the closest choices at 15 to 17 minutes from the entrance. The A-graded elementary and middle choices in Zone Q and Zone GG sit farther north toward Estero and south Fort Myers. The grades come from the Florida Department of Education's 2025-26 school grades file, published as of September 1, 2026.

High school busing

Busing follows its own table. The district's High School Transportation Optimization page lists Bonita Springs High and Estero High as busing sub-zones 2 and 3, and South Fort Myers High as busing sub-zones 1 to 5. Bonita Landing sits in sub-zone 3, so it falls inside the busing list of all three South Zone 3 high schools. That matters because South Fort Myers High is the longest drive on the list, at 23.3 miles and about 35 minutes from the entrance.

Distance and transportation

Every zone school is more than 5 miles from Bonita Landing in a straight line, and none is a walk. Bonita Springs Elementary is the nearest at 6.5 routed miles; Bonita Springs Middle is 7.2 miles and Bonita Springs High 7.8 miles, each about 17 minutes in free-flow traffic. Which students ride a bus, from which stop and to which school is set by the district under the Student Enrollment Plan, not by the community, so the plan's transportation language is the document to read against the school a household ranks first.

Charter and private options

Bonita Springs Charter School is a charter school with its own admissions, so the zone lists above do not apply to it. It is about 9.3 miles and 21 minutes from the Bonita Landing entrance. We did not profile private schools for this page; their admissions, tuition and transportation are set by each school.

How Far Is Bonita Landing From Hospitals?

The nearest emergency department to Bonita Landing is NCH Northeast Freestanding ED on Collier Boulevard in Naples, about 8.2 miles and 19 minutes from the entrance. NCH North Naples Hospital is 21 to 23 minutes away, and the Bonita Springs and Coconut Point emergency departments are 23 to 26 minutes from Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs.

Data updated: October 2026 (free-flow drive times from the Bonita Landing entrance and points inside the community, October 12, 2026; NCH Healthcare System and Lee Health location pages and Lee Health's UnitedHealthcare notice, read October 12, 2026).

Bonita Landing sits just north of the Lee and Collier county line, and that geography shapes emergency care. The closest emergency department and the two closest hospitals are run by NCH Healthcare System across the line in Collier County, while Lee Health's nearest sites are to the west and north in Bonita Springs and Estero.

Emergency departments

The route to NCH Northeast runs west on Bonita Beach Road, south on Logan Boulevard and east on Immokalee Road to Collier Boulevard. Ranges in the table run from the entrance to points inside the community. These are estimated free-flow times with no traffic.

Hospitals

For a full hospital rather than a freestanding emergency department, the nearest is NCH North Naples Hospital at 11.1 to 11.9 miles, or 21 to 23 minutes. Gulf Coast Medical Center in Fort Myers, which Lee Health states is a Level II Trauma Center with 699 licensed beds, is 23.2 to 24.0 miles and 35 to 37 minutes away by I-75.

Lee Health and UnitedHealthcare in 2027

Lee Health's own notice says its hospitals and physicians go out of network for affected UnitedHealthcare employer, individual and Medicare Advantage plans from January 1, 2027. The same notice says the change "will not affect your Medicare Supplement coverage". For Bonita Landing the practical point is geography: the nearest emergency department and the two nearest hospitals are NCH sites, not Lee Health sites, so the plan question to ask an insurer covers both systems.

How Long Is the Drive From Bonita Landing to Everywhere?

From the Bonita Landing entrance on Bonita Beach Road SE, I-75 Exit 116 is about 4 miles and 10 minutes, Publix 9 minutes, Coconut Point 24 minutes, Bonita Beach Park 20 minutes, Southwest Florida International Airport 30 minutes and downtown Naples about 34 minutes in free-flow traffic, so Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs is an east-of-I-75 address.

Data updated: October 2026 (estimated free-flow drive times from the Bonita Landing entrance, October 12, 2026).

Drive-time table

Method: estimated free-flow drive times from the Bonita Landing entrance on Bonita Beach Road SE, with the range from points inside the community where given (OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap roads, no traffic), October 12, 2026. Season traffic on Bonita Beach Road and I-75 adds time that a free-flow estimate does not show.

Distance and time do not track each other on this list. Lovers Key State Park, at 15.6 miles, takes 31 minutes, while Southwest Florida International Airport, at 19.4 miles, takes 30. The airport and downtown Naples land within about 4 minutes of each other, which suits an owner who splits time between Lee and Collier counties. Plan by minutes, not miles.

The road out

There is one way in and out of Bonita Landing: the entrance on Bonita Beach Road SE, with no road south out of the community. Trips to Naples run west on Bonita Beach Road about 1.25 miles to Logan Boulevard, then south, and the frontage road itself is a non-county corridor whose upkeep is covered in the road and utilities section below.

Transit

No LeeTran fixed route and no ULTRA on-demand zone reaches Bonita Landing. The nearest fixed-route stop is about 5.7 miles away in a straight line, on Lee County's own route and zone layers. A car is the working assumption for daily trips from this part of Bonita Beach Road SE.

What Is Near Bonita Landing for Shopping, Parks and Trails?

The CREW Flint Pen Strand trails start about a quarter mile west of the Bonita Landing entrance across Bonita Beach Road. Everyday groceries are at Publix Bonita Grande Crossing about 3.5 miles west, and the larger Bonita Springs, Estero and Naples shopping centers (Coconut Point, Miromar Outlets, Mercato) are 21 to 26 minutes from Bonita Landing.

Data updated: October 2026 (CREW Land and Water Trust trail page modified January 8, 2026 and 2026 trail map; Publix store data; City of Bonita Springs parks pages; Lee County Parks beach pages; all read October 12, 2026).

CREW Flint Pen Strand Trails

The nearest outdoor space of any size is across the road. The CREW Flint Pen Strand Trails main parking area is on the north side of Bonita Beach Road SE by Vincent Road, about a quarter mile west of the Bonita Landing entrance, or 0.6 mile and 2 minutes by car. CREW Land and Water Trust, which publishes the trail information, lists the trails as free and open from one hour before sunrise to one hour after sunset.

The 2026 trail map shows six marked trails from 1.5 to 13.7 miles round trip. The listed uses are hiking, biking, birding and running, horseback riding with a South Florida Water Management District licence, and hunting in season under Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission rules. Restrooms and picnic areas are at the parking areas. Whether a marked crossing or a sidewalk connects Bonita Landing to the trailhead on foot is not established in the records we read, so the 2-minute drive is the figure we can stand behind.

Groceries and everyday shopping

Publix Bonita Grande Crossing (store 843), at 12900 Trade Way Four in Bonita Springs, is 3.5 miles and about 9 minutes west. Publix's own store data lists it as open 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, with a pharmacy and a liquor store. Closer than that there is little: Lee County's address-point layer names no shop or restaurant within about 2.5 miles of the entrance. Bonita Landing sits in a stretch of Bonita Beach Road SE that is residential on the south side and conservation and rural land on the north.

Larger shopping and dining

For a bigger trip, three centers sit 21 to 26 minutes out. Miromar Outlets in Estero is 12.0 miles and 21 minutes; Coconut Point in Estero is 12.8 miles and 24 minutes; Mercato in Naples is 13.0 miles and 26 minutes. The Promenade at Bonita Bay on South Bay Drive in Bonita Springs is a nearer dining and shopping cluster. Each center publishes its own directory and hours, and those change by season.

City parks

The City of Bonita Springs runs the nearest public parks. Bonita Nature Place and Cullum's Bonita Trail are 5.4 miles and 14 minutes away. Bonita Springs Community Park and Recreation Center, with 2 public tennis courts, is 7.3 miles and 17 minutes. Riverside Park downtown closed in April 2026 for its phase 2 work, with completion "by winter 2026" per the City's Downtown Events page. The City's parks page lists the rest.

Beaches

Bonita Landing has no beach access of its own; the golf, marina and beach section above covers what is nearby. In short: Bonita Beach Park is about 20 minutes away, but its lot and amenities have been closed since September 8, 2026 for Ian repairs. The Beach Access #1 lot closes November 1, 2026 with pedestrian access open, Accesses #2 to #9 are free to park, and Little Hickory Island Beach Park (Access #10) closed its lot and amenities from September 8, 2026 with pedestrian access open (Lee County Parks pages, read October 12, 2026).

What Is Being Built Near Bonita Landing?

Nothing is being built or rezoned on land that touches Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs. The nearest active project is Revana Lakes, 1.2 to 1.5 miles west on Bonita Beach Road SE; two Lee County rezoning cases sit about 2 to 2.75 miles west, and the land across the road awaits a pending Southeast Lee County plan update.

Data updated: October 2026 (City of Bonita Springs projects register, Lee County zoning-case and planning layers, and the FDOT project page, read October 12, 2026).

The neighbours are built

Bonita Landing is surrounded by finished communities. VillageWalk of Bonita Springs shares the west boundary, Valencia Bonita (recorded as Bonita Beach Road Estates) lies to the south, Seasons at Bonita is to the east and Bonita National is farther east. Across Bonita Beach Road SE to the north is unincorporated Lee County conservation and rural land, including the Flint Pen Strand area.

We checked the two public registers that would show new applications. The City of Bonita Springs projects register held 41 open records on October 12, 2026, and none sits within 1.2 miles of Bonita Landing. Lee County's zoning-case layer showed no open case within 2.0 miles. A register lists applications only, so an empty radius is not proof that nothing is planned; it is what the record shows today.

Revana Lakes

Revana Lakes is 1.2 to 1.5 miles west, on the north side of Bonita Beach Road SE. The City annexed it on January 21, 2026 under City Ordinance 26-01, covering 90.12 acres. The City's register lists development-order applications for Phase 1A (19 single-family homes and mass grading), Phase 1B (50,000 sq ft of commercial space) and Phase 2 (145 single-family homes), each marked "Request for Additional Info". Lee County's limited development order LDO2026-00572, for a signalised entrance on Bonita Beach Road SE, read "Waiting on Applicant" on October 1, 2026.

Lee County cases to the west

Two unincorporated cases sit farther west. White Willow RPD (Lee County case DCI2025-00028) covers 47.02 acres and proposes 94 single-family homes; its status is "Pending HEX Hearing", about 2.0 miles west. Bonita Beach Rd CPD (DCI2024-00007) proposes 60,000 sq ft of commercial space and is "In Review", about 2.75 miles west. Between them and Revana Lakes, the applications we found for new homes and shops on this corridor all sit west of Bonita Landing, toward I-75.

The land across Bonita Beach Road

The rural and conservation land across from Bonita Landing is governed by Lee County's comprehensive plan, and that plan is being rewritten. Lee Plan amendment CPA2026-00004, the "Southeast Lee County Update", was received April 24, 2026 and is under review, per Lee County's list of plan amendments under review. It rewrites the policies for that land.

Separately, Lee County awarded a $3.96 million Phase 1 design and permitting contract on January 20, 2026 for the Kiker Preserve and Flint Pen project, a flood control and flow-way restoration effort supported by a $22.7 million FDEP Resilient Florida grant, as the Village of Estero reported. Design and permitting are expected to be complete in late 2028.

Roads and I-75

The larger road project is on I-75. FDOT project 452544-1, Golden Gate Parkway to Alico Road, is in its construction phase with a start in mid 2026 and includes congestion relief lanes between Immokalee Road and Bonita Beach Road; FDOT scheduled a public hearing for October 27, 2026, per the FDOT project page. Exit 116 is about 3.5 miles west of Bonita Landing in a straight line. Bonita Beach Road SE in front of the community is covered in the next section.

Projects near Bonita Landing

Who Maintains Bonita Beach Road and the Utilities at Bonita Landing?

Bonita Beach Road SE in front of Bonita Landing is not a county-maintained road: its right-of-way is owned by the Bonita National district, and its upkeep is shared by four neighbouring districts and associations under a 2017 agreement. Water and sewer come from Bonita Springs Utilities, and Bonita Landing lawns are watered from the community lake under a state permit.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County road layers; Bonita Landing CDD FY2027 adopted budget; East Bonita Beach Road CDD audit for the year ended September 30, 2025 and FY2027 adopted budget; SFWMD water use permit records; 2025 Lee County tax bills; all read October 12, 2026).

Bonita Beach Road SE

Most readers assume the road at the front gate of a Bonita Springs community is a county road. Here it is not. Lee County's major-road layer shows county maintenance, as County Road 865, only as far east as about the Logan Boulevard roundabout. The 2.39 miles east of that point are coded not county maintained, and the right-of-way parcel along Bonita Landing's frontage is owned of record by Beach Road Golf Estates CDD, the Bonita National district. The corridor's landscaping, roadway and stormwater costs are shared among the districts and the association along it, as the next part of this section shows.

The 2017 corridor cost-sharing agreement

Two district records describe the sharing, and they use different figures. The Bonita Landing CDD budgets $9,500 a year (FY2026 and FY2027) for "Shared Maintenance Costs": a panther mitigation property in LaBelle, carried since FY2017 with its monitoring period ended in 2020, and common infrastructure along Bonita Beach Road (landscaping, roadway and stormwater, with street lighting added in 2021), shared with neighbouring communities by interlocal agreement.

The East Bonita Beach Road CDD's audited statements for the year ended September 30, 2025 (Note 5) record a cost-sharing agreement dated June 2, 2017 among that district (14 percent), Beach Road Golf Estates CDD (46 percent), Bonita Landing CDD (7 percent) and Valencia Bonita HOA (33 percent). That district's FY2027 adopted budget lists the shared four-party program at $247,000, including a $75,000 "Beach Road engineering condition report". The documents we read do not reconcile the two districts' figures. What a Bonita Landing owner actually pays toward the corridor arrives inside the CDD line on the tax bill, which for FY2027 is $1,510.77 or $1,634.48 a year by lot product.

Water, sewer and electric

Bonita Springs Utilities provides water and sewer, on Lee County's franchise layers and Bonita Springs Utilities' own sewer service-area layer at points inside the community. FPL provides electric service. Bonita Springs Utilities lists no capital project within 3 miles of Bonita Landing on its capital projects layer.

Irrigation from the lake

Lawn irrigation does not run on drinking water. It draws from the on-site lake under South Florida Water Management District water use permit 36-05536-W, recorded as "Bonita Landing fka Section 2 Lake Community". The permit is a general permit for landscape irrigation of 26.3 acres at 0.0944 million gallons a day, from one 750-gallon-a-minute pump; it was renewed May 12, 2017 and is valid to May 12, 2037, with Lennar Homes LLC as applicant of record. The recorded Declaration requires irrigation on the non-potable line and bars private wells, and the association runs the lot irrigation equipment as a common expense.

Trash and recycling

Solid waste is a Lee County service collected by WM, and it is billed on the property tax bill rather than by a hauler. The 2025 Lee County tax bills we sampled carry a Lee County Solid Waste Assessment of $358.45 and a City of Bonita Springs Stormwater line of $50.00 beside the Bonita Landing CDD line. We do not print a pickup day; the county's schedule sets it.

Internet and cable

The records we read for Bonita Landing (the Declaration, the CDD budgets and the county and utility layers) do not state an internet or cable provider. Service at a given address is something the provider confirms for that home.

How Does Bonita Landing Compare With Nearby Communities?

Bonita Landing is the smallest of the Bonita Beach Road SE communities around it, with 219 Lennar homes, no clubhouse and a CDD line of $1,510.77 or $1,634.48. VillageWalk of Bonita Springs, to the west, is a 1,655-home community with a Town Center, published association dues and a lower CDD line on the tax bill.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026; county roll dated October 11, 2026; Bonita Landing CDD FY2027 adopted budget; VillageWalk association 2026 dues adopted October 22, 2025 and its CDD tax lines).

Bonita Landing and its neighbours

Bonita Landing has four neighbours along Bonita Beach Road SE, three of them adjoining and Bonita National farther east. The table sets out what the record shows for Bonita Landing and its west-side rival, and names the other three neighbours by builder and position only. We do not carry figures from their pages here.

Valencia Bonita, Seasons at Bonita and Bonita National each have their own association documents and recorded sales, and a buyer weighing them against Bonita Landing should read those documents side by side rather than rely on a summary row.

Same-window prices against VillageWalk

The fair price comparison uses the same instrument and the same window. In the 36 months to September 25, 2026, Lee County recorded 38 Bonita Landing sales at a $649,500 median, against 114 detached VillageWalk sales at a $664,500 median: $15,000 apart ($664,500 minus $649,500). Over 60 months, Bonita Landing recorded 70 sales at a $687,500 median against 210 detached VillageWalk sales at $674,950: $12,550 apart in the other direction ($687,500 minus $674,950).

The home mix differs. Bonita Landing is all single-family homes built 2016 to 2021, while VillageWalk's detached homes were built from 2004 and sit beside villas and townhomes. So the gap in either window says as much about which homes sold as about the two communities.

Where new homes are being built now

Lennar's last builder-direct sales at Bonita Landing were recorded in 2021, and the county record shows no builder sale here in any window from 12 to 60 months, so every Bonita Landing purchase today is a resale. For homes being built now in the city, see our guide to new construction in Bonita Springs, including Solis Grande, the PulteGroup community selling new homes in Bonita Springs.

Bonita Landing vs VillageWalk of Bonita Springs: Which Community Fits Your Priorities?

Bonita Landing and VillageWalk of Bonita Springs share a boundary on Bonita Beach Road SE, the same flood zone and the same evacuation zone. Bonita Landing is 219 Lennar homes built 2016 to 2021 around a lakeside park, while VillageWalk is 1,655 DiVosta homes built 2004 to 2015 with a Town Center and published dues.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026; county roll dated October 11, 2026; Bonita Landing CDD FY2027 adopted budget; VillageWalk association 2026 dues adopted October 22, 2025; FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer and Lee County evacuation zones, read October 12, 2026).

The two communities are next-door neighbours with very different shapes. Our VillageWalk of Bonita Springs guide covers that side in full; the table below sets them side by side on the record.

How the two compare on price

On the same instrument and window, the two medians sit close together. Over the 36 months to September 25, 2026, detached VillageWalk homes recorded a $664,500 median on 114 sales, $15,000 above Bonita Landing's $649,500 on 38. Over 60 months the order flips: Bonita Landing's $687,500 on 70 sales sits $12,550 above VillageWalk's detached $674,950 on 210. With the lead changing between windows and the home mix differing (newer single-family homes on one side, a wider range of ages and types on the other), the record does not show one community consistently priced above the other. The specific home, its lot and its condition carry more weight than the name on the entry sign.

How the two compare on fees

The two fee stacks are built differently, so we set them side by side with their documents and years rather than subtract one from the other. On the Bonita Landing side, the FY2027 CDD line is $1,510.77 for the 50-foot lot product or $1,634.48 for the 60-foot product, from the district's adopted budget, and the association's dues are not published in any public document we read; the estoppel certificate states them for a given home. On the VillageWalk side, the association's 2026 dues run $1,380.93 to $1,652.27 a quarter by home style (adopted October 22, 2025), and its CDD lines run $555.03 to $881.46 a year.

What a buyer can compare today is therefore one published dues schedule on the VillageWalk side against one published CDD table on the Bonita Landing side, with each community's other number to be read from its own documents. Bonita Landing's CDD line includes Series 2016 bond debt service that runs to December 15, 2047.

Which fits which priorities

A buyer who wants a 2016 to 2021 single-family home on a small loop street around one lake, with front-yard maintenance and lot irrigation included through the association and no clubhouse to fund, will find that on the Bonita Landing side. A buyer whose priority is a 24-hour controlled-access entry, a Town Center with pools and courts, a published dues schedule or a wider choice of villas and townhomes will find those on the VillageWalk of Bonita Springs side. Both sit in the same Zone X polygon and evacuation zone D, so flood mapping does not separate them.

What Are the Pros and Cons of Bonita Landing?

Bonita Landing's record shows 2016 to 2021 construction, association-maintained front yards, Zone X at every point tested and trails across the road. The trade-offs for Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs are unpublished dues, a CDD line with bonds to 2047, a pending lake-embankment case, no clubhouse or pool and an 8-mile drive to emergency care.

What the record shows in Bonita Landing's favor

• Recent construction. All 215 homes in the county roll file were built between 2016 and 2021, most of them in 2018 to 2020.
• Front yards maintained. The recorded Declaration has the association maintain lawns, shrubs, trees and installed landscaping on the front and accessible parts of each lot, the lot irrigation equipment and the common areas, as a common expense.
• Mapped flood zone. Every sampled point and every parcel record we tested is in Zone X, area of minimal flood hazard, on FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer (October 12, 2026); evacuation zone D at every point.
• Trails across the road. The CREW Flint Pen Strand trailhead is about a quarter mile west, 2 minutes by car, with six marked trails on the 2026 map.
• A small community. 219 single-family homes on one street, Bonita Landing Circle, with a lakeside park (pier, pavilion, restroom and parking) and a playground.
• Few use restrictions on the record. No age restriction appears in the recorded Declaration, Articles or Bylaws; recorded amendments could not be listed, so the governing documents control. Leasing requires a written lease of at least 30 consecutive days, with no rental cap in the recorded text.

What a careful buyer should weigh

• Dues not published. The association's dues amount is not in any public document we read; the estoppel certificate states it for a given home.
• The CDD line and its bonds. $1,510.77 or $1,634.48 a year for FY2027, by lot product, billed once a year on the tax bill. The Series 2016 bonds had $1,895,000 outstanding on October 12, 2026, with final maturity December 15, 2047.
• The lake case. The 46.88-acre lake is titled of record to Lennar Homes, LLC. The Bonita Landing CDD sued Lennar Homes, LLC in circuit court (case 2024-CA-007567) over the lake embankment; the district's audited statements say the outcome cannot be determined.
• No clubhouse, pool or courts. There is no clubhouse, community pool, fitness room or court on any county card, association photo or the 2025 aerial.
• Distance. I-75 Exit 116 is 4.0 miles and 10 minutes away, the nearest emergency department 8.2 miles and 19 minutes, and every zone school more than 5 miles; there is no transit.

Bonita Landing sales on the county record

For the 12 months to September 25, 2026, Lee County recorded six qualified Bonita Landing sales, from $530,000 to $707,000. Every one was a resale on Bonita Landing Circle. Six sales are too few for a reliable median, so we list them instead, with county heated area and year built: $630,000 in October 2025 (2,032 square feet, built 2019), $585,000 in December 2025 (2,032 square feet, built 2020), $530,000 in January 2026 (2,202 square feet, built 2020), $640,000 in March 2026 (2,445 square feet, built 2017), $612,000 in June 2026 (1,852 square feet, built 2016) and $707,000 in July 2026 (2,251 square feet, built 2019). Three were in Phase 1 and three in Unit Two, and three sit on lots that touch the lake tract.

Over the 24 months to the same date, the first window with 10 or more sales, the record shows 20 sales at a median of $637,500, from $530,000 to $900,000, at $303.98 per square foot of county heated area. Seventeen of the 20 sold between $500,000 and $750,000 and three between $750,000 and $1,000,000. None was a builder sale: Lennar's last recorded builder-direct sales here were in 2021, so a Bonita Landing seller competes with other resales, not with a sales center. The highest sale in the county file is $900,000, recorded March 6, 2025 for a 2017-built home of 2,445 square feet. Over 36 months the record shows 38 sales at a $649,500 median, and over 60 months 70 sales at a $687,500 median.

How we price a Bonita Landing home

We start with county heated area, because Lennar built Bonita Landing around a handful of repeating sizes, and the nearest repeating size is the cleanest comparison. On the county roll, 6 homes have 1,677 square feet, 25 have 1,852, 58 have 2,032, 25 have 2,202, 11 have 2,251 and 66 have 2,445; the other 24 homes range from 2,271 to 3,909 square feet, and that group holds all 12 two-story homes. Over the 60 months to September 25, 2026 the record shows the 1,677 and 1,852 square foot homes together at 11 sales and a $580,000 median, the 2,032 square foot homes at 20 sales and $652,000, the 2,202 square foot homes at 10 sales and $637,500, the 2,251 square foot homes at 3 sales from $575,000 to $750,000, the 2,445 square foot homes at 18 sales and $767,500, and the other sizes at 8 sales from $648,075 to $810,000. The repeats mark Lennar's plans, but no plan name appears on any record we read, so we never price a home by a plan name.

Then we read the details that move a number inside its size group. The plat matters mostly through plan mix: over 24 months Phase 1 recorded 10 sales at a $698,500 median and Unit Two 10 at $595,750, yet Phase 1 holds 71 of the 101 homes of 2,251 square feet or more, and among homes of 2,202 square feet or less over 60 months Phase 1 recorded 11 sales at $612,000 against Unit Two's 30 at $632,500. Lake position is read sale by sale: over 24 months lake-tract lots recorded 10 sales at a $637,500 median and other lots 10 at $620,750, but over 36 months the order reverses (17 at $640,000 against 21 at $655,000), so the record shows no consistent lake premium. The county carries a private-pool record on 157 of the 215 roll homes; over 24 months 16 sales with that record sold at a $637,500 median and 4 without it sold from $530,000 to $690,000, too few to set a rule, and the flag is today's record rather than the record at the time of each sale. We also read the year built and the roof (original roofs here date from 2016 to 2021), and the CDD line on your tax bill, because a 60-foot lot product carries $123.71 a year more in debt service than a 50-foot product. We do not borrow a price per square foot from another community, and we do not quote a community-wide figure as your price.

Seller closing costs at the Bonita Landing median

Two statutory lines can be computed from the price, and the seller customarily pays both in Lee County; the contract controls. The deed documentary stamp tax is $0.70 per $100 of consideration under section 201.02, Florida Statutes, and the owner's title policy premium follows Florida's state-set rate of $5.75 per $1,000 up to $100,000 and $5.00 per $1,000 from $100,000 to $1,000,000. The table shows both lines at the 24-month median and at the highest recorded sale, with the inputs.

The title premium is before any reissue credit. Commission is negotiable and closing-fee amounts vary by title company, so commission and closing-fee amounts are not printed. The estoppel certificate carries its own capped fee, covered in the list below.

Documents a Bonita Landing seller should gather first

Gathering these before the first showing shortens the path from contract to closing:

• The estoppel certificate request. The recorded Declaration (Section 9.12) set its own ceiling of up to $200.00 within 15 days, but section 720.30851, Florida Statutes now governs: the association issues the certificate within 10 business days of a written or electronic request, and charges no fee if it is late. The statutory base fee is $250, plus $100 if expedited and $150 if the account is delinquent; the Department of Business and Professional Regulation's published adjustment sets the current caps at $299, $119 and $179. The association's actual fee may be lower. The manager's site sends estoppel and bank questionnaire orders to HomeWiseDocs.
• The homeowners' association disclosure summary. A seller gives it to the buyer before the contract is signed (section 720.401); a buyer who does not receive it may void the contract before closing.
• The CDD disclosure. Florida requires a bold notice in every contract for the initial sale of a home in a community development district (section 190.048), and the recorded Declaration (Section 11.2) separately obliges every Bonita Landing owner to disclose the CDD in writing to a buyer.
• The latest tax bill. It shows the "BONITA LANDING CDD" line ($1,477.80 or $1,601.51 on the 2025 bills, by lot product), the City stormwater line and the county solid waste line, so a buyer sees the whole yearly cost. The FY2027 CDD figures are $1,510.77 and $1,634.48.
• The recorded Declaration and plats. The Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Bonita Landing, the plat of Bonita Landing and the plat of Bonita Landing Unit Two answer most buyer questions about maintenance, leasing, pets, vehicles and the lake.
• Roof and permit records. Permit dates, code editions and roof replacements for individual homes were not in the records we read, so your own invoices and permit cards carry real weight with a buyer and an insurer.
• Architectural approvals. Every exterior change, fence, landscaping change or colour needs the association's prior written approval under the Declaration, so approval letters for anything changed since the home was built belong in the file.

Five questions come up before almost every Bonita Landing listing, and the full seller FAQ below covers many more.

How long does a Bonita Landing home take to sell?

Days on market for Bonita Landing come from the Southwest Florida MLS, and they are not in the county record: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-10). What the county record does show is the spread of recent closings: the six sales in the 12 months to September 25, 2026 were recorded in October and December 2025 and in January, March, June and July 2026. Ask us for the current pace on your size group and we will pull it with you.

Does the Bonita Landing association have to approve my buyer?

The recorded Declaration contains no approval of sales and no right of first refusal. The association's portal does carry a Buyer Application page, run through the manager's ApplyToMove screening portal, and its fees and criteria are not public. Both are true at once, so we confirm the current process for your home when the listing is prepared, and the estoppel certificate states what the account owes at closing.

What does a buyer pay the association when a Bonita Landing home sells?

The recorded 2016 Declaration (Sections 9.14 to 9.16) sets a Resale Capital Contribution paid by the buyer at each resale, "initially set as $500.00" unless the Board changes it by uniform resolution, and allows a separate capitalization contribution set by Board resolution. Transfers to an owner's wholly owned entity, a spouse, children or the estate, between co-owners, or to an institutional lender are exempt. The current amounts appear on the estoppel certificate.

Do I have to tell a buyer about the CDD and the lake case?

The CDD is a disclosure item: Florida requires a CDD notice in the contract for an initial sale, and the recorded Declaration obliges every owner to disclose the CDD in writing to a buyer. The case between the Bonita Landing CDD and Lennar Homes, LLC over the lake embankment is in the district's public records. Questions about what the law requires you to disclose go to your own attorney; we put the public district records in the buyer's hands early.

Can I put a For Sale sign at my Bonita Landing home?

The recorded Declaration (Section 5.7) allows no sign, including a "for sale" or "for rent" sign, without architectural approval. Florida's section 720.304 separately protects certain flags, a freestanding flagpole and a security-company sign near an entrance, so a blanket "no signs or flags" reading is wrong. We confirm what the association allows before the listing goes live and market the home through the channels the rule permits.

Bonita Landing FAQ: Buyer Edition

Buyers ask what Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs is, what the CDD and the association each charge, who owns the lake, what the recorded rules allow and how it compares with VillageWalk.

What is Bonita Landing in Bonita Springs?

Bonita Landing is a community of 219 single-family homes that Lennar Homes, LLC built from 2016 to 2021 on one loop street, Bonita Landing Circle, on the south side of Bonita Beach Road SE about 4 miles east of I-75, in the City of Bonita Springs, Lee County, Florida, ZIP 34135. It covers about 104 acres, and a 46.88-acre stormwater lake fills the centre of the loop, taking about as much land as the home lots themselves (46.86 acres, each about 45 percent of the total). One homeowners' association, Bonita Landing Homeowner's Association, Inc., governs the homes under a Declaration recorded in 2016, and a Chapter 190 special district, the Bonita Landing Community Development District, levies a yearly assessment on each lot's tax bill to repay bonds that run to 2047.

Where is Bonita Landing located?

Bonita Landing sits on the south side of Bonita Beach Road SE, about 4 miles east of I-75 Exit 116 and just north of the Lee and Collier county line; the nearest Collier County land is about 0.67 mile south. VillageWalk of Bonita Springs shares its west boundary, Valencia Bonita lies to the south, Seasons at Bonita to the east and Bonita National farther east, and across Bonita Beach Road SE to the north is unincorporated Lee County conservation and rural land that includes the CREW Flint Pen Strand area. The single entrance is on Bonita Beach Road SE, and there is no road south out of the community. Every parcel record carries the City of Bonita Springs municipal code and tax district 017, so the City, not unincorporated Lee County, is the local government. Bonita Springs Fire Control and Rescue District Station 26 sits beside the entrance, about 0.3 mile and 1 minute by road.

Is Bonita Landing part of VillageWalk?

No. Bonita Landing has its own plats, its own association (Bonita Landing Homeowner's Association, Inc.) and its own community development district, and it is not part of VillageWalk, Valencia Bonita, Bonita National or Pelican Landing. VillageWalk of Bonita Springs is its neighbour to the west, and the Bonita Landing plat notes the adjoining VillageWalk plats. The "Landing" names inside Pelican Landing and Bonita Bay are different places in ZIP 34134; Bonita Landing is in ZIP 34135.

Does Bonita Landing have a gate or a guardhouse?

The Bonita Landing entrance on Bonita Beach Road SE is a divided entry with a landscaped median and a stone monument sign. The Lee County Property Appraiser's cost card for the road tract records no gatehouse or gate, the recorded Declaration has no gate provision, and the Declaration promises no security services. Whether the entry has gate arms or a card reader is not shown in the records we read, so we confirm the current entry arrangement before a showing.

How many homes are in Bonita Landing?

Bonita Landing has 219 single-family homes: the county parcel layer returns 219 (119 in Phase 1 and 100 in Unit Two), the CDD's FY2027 assessment table counts 219 units (125 on the 50-foot product and 94 on the 60-foot product), and the Declaration presumes 219 lots. Our sales statistics use the 215 homes in the county roll file (116 in Phase 1 and 99 in Unit Two), because four built homes carry no roll data in the county extract; none of them falls inside a 12 to 60 month sales window. There are no condominiums, duplexes or vacant residential lots in Bonita Landing.

Who built Bonita Landing?

Lennar Homes, LLC built Bonita Landing. Lennar dedicated both plats, made the recorded Declaration as Declarant, petitioned the City for the community development district and signed the first deeds out to buyers, and no recorded instrument we read names any other builder. Lennar bought about 104.42 acres in 2015 under an amendment to an earlier development agreement that converted 299 planned multi-family units to 235 single-family units; 219 lots were platted.

When was Bonita Landing built?

The county roll dates the 215 roll homes from 2016 to 2021: 10 in 2016, 35 in 2017, 49 in 2018, 55 in 2019, 54 in 2020 and 12 in 2021, so 109 of the 215 (50.7 percent) were built in 2019 and 2020. Phase 1 was built mostly in 2017 and 2018, and Unit Two mostly in 2019 and 2020. The first sales by Lennar were recorded in January 2017, the first Unit Two sale on October 31, 2018, and the last homes were finished in 2021.

Is Lennar still building in Bonita Landing?

No. The Lee County record shows no builder-direct sale at Bonita Landing in any window from 12 to 60 months to September 25, 2026; Lennar's last builder-direct sales here were recorded in 2021 (17 that year). The county file holds no vacant residential lot and no recorded vacant-land sale, so every home a buyer can purchase in Bonita Landing today is a resale. For a new home in Bonita Springs, Solis Grande, where PulteGroup is building, is the community in this tree with a builder still selling.

How big are the homes in Bonita Landing?

Bonita Landing homes range from 1,677 to 3,909 square feet of county heated area, with a mean of about 2,239. Of the 215 roll homes, 31 are under 2,000 square feet, 177 are from 2,000 to 2,999 and 7 are 3,000 or more. On bedrooms, the roll lists 129 three-bedroom homes, 79 four-bedroom homes, 5 five-bedroom homes, 1 two-bedroom home and 1 six-bedroom home; the roll lists full baths only, so we do not print baths by plan.

What Lennar floor plans are in Bonita Landing?

No Lennar plan name appears on any record we read, so we describe Bonita Landing homes by size. The county roll shows six repeating sizes that mark Lennar's plans: 1,677 square feet (6 homes), 1,852 (25), 2,032 (58), 2,202 (25), 2,251 (11) and 2,445 (66), with the other 24 homes at sizes from 2,271 to 3,909 square feet. A seller's own purchase documents are the place to confirm a plan name for a given home.

Are Bonita Landing homes one story?

Most are. The county layer shows 203 one-story homes and 12 two-story homes among the 215 roll homes, so 94.4 percent are one story (203 divided by 215). All 12 two-story homes sit in the group of sizes outside the six repeating plans. The recorded Declaration caps any home at two stories or 45 feet and sets a minimum of 900 square feet of air-conditioned area.

How big are the lots?

Lot sizes across the 219 Bonita Landing lots run from 6,763 to 22,028 square feet, with a median of 9,095 square feet (0.209 acre) and quartiles of 8,116 and 10,045 square feet, measured from the county parcel layer. Thirty-two lots are under 7,500 square feet, 130 are from 7,500 to under 10,000, 51 are from 10,000 to under 15,000 and 6 are 15,000 or more. The CDD sorts lots into a 50-foot and a 60-foot product, but no public record we read assigns a width to a given lot, so the CDD line on that home's tax bill is the way to tell.

How many Bonita Landing homes are on the lake?

Ninety-nine of the 215 roll homes (46.0 percent) sit on lots that touch the 46.88-acre lake tract, measured from county parcel lines: 53 in Phase 1 and 46 in Unit Two. On the full parcel layer the count is 101 of 219. The county's own lake land-use code also sits on 99 roll homes, though not on exactly the same lots, so we use the measured parcel lines. No lot has a boat dock or a seawall.

Do Bonita Landing homes have pools?

Many do. The county carries a private-pool record on 157 of the 215 roll homes (73.0 percent): 79 of 116 in Phase 1 and 78 of 99 in Unit Two. There is no community pool in Bonita Landing, so the pool is a private feature of each home. Every home also has a garage on the county layer.

Is Bonita Landing an age-restricted community?

No age restriction appears in the recorded Declaration, Articles or Bylaws of Bonita Landing; recorded amendments could not be listed, so the governing documents control.

What are the HOA fees in Bonita Landing?

The Bonita Landing association's dues amount is not published in any public document we read; its portal sits behind an owner login. The recorded Declaration sets the method: each lot pays an equal share, one over the number of lots, and the Board sets the budget; the Board may fund reserves but is not required to. Since January 1, 2025, Florida's section 720.303(4)(b) requires an association with 100 or more parcels to post its annual budget and other listed documents on a website or app, and the estoppel certificate states the amount owed for a given home. Under the Declaration, late payments carry a late fee of the greater of $25 or 5 percent of the amount, interest at the maximum lawful rate (stated there as "currently 18%") and lien rights.

What is the Bonita Landing CDD fee?

For fiscal year 2027 the Bonita Landing CDD's adopted assessment table sets $1,510.77 a year on the 50-foot product (125 units: $889.73 general fund plus $621.04 Series 2016 debt service) and $1,634.48 a year on the 60-foot product (94 units: $889.73 plus $744.75). It is billed once a year on the Lee County property tax bill, not monthly; as a monthly equivalent that is $125.90 ($1,510.77 divided by 12) and $136.21 ($1,634.48 divided by 12). The FY2026 figures were $1,477.80 and $1,601.51, so FY2027 adds $32.97 a unit, all on the general fund side.

What is the difference between the HOA and the CDD?

The Bonita Landing association is a Florida not-for-profit corporation (N15000012051, filed December 23, 2015) that enforces the recorded Declaration under Chapter 720, owns the roads and park tracts, and maintains front lawns, lot irrigation, street lights on its property and the common areas; its Board sets dues that are not published. The Bonita Landing Community Development District is a Chapter 190 special district, a unit of local government established April 1, 2016 by City Ordinance 16-03, with a five-member Board of Supervisors; it levies its assessment on the tax bill, repays the Series 2016 bonds and holds the lake maintenance easements under the plat. Its meetings and records are public.

How long will the CDD bond assessment last?

The Bonita Landing CDD's Series 2016 special assessment bonds reach final maturity on December 15, 2047. The district issued $2,250,000 in December 2016 at interest rates from 3.25 to 4.625 percent, and by its amortization schedule $1,895,000 was outstanding on October 12, 2026, falling to $1,840,000 after the $55,000 principal payment due December 15, 2026. The district's Questions page says the capital part of the assessment is "generally fixed for the term of the bonds", while the operations part "can fluctuate up and down".

Can I pay off the CDD bond early?

The Bonita Landing CDD publishes no payoff procedure or payoff figure for a single lot's share of the bonds. The district's audit shows the bonds are subject to optional redemption, and a payoff figure for a given lot comes from the district manager on written request. Until a lot's share is paid, the debt part appears on each year's tax bill.

Why does a 60-foot lot pay more CDD than a 50-foot lot?

The difference at Bonita Landing is all debt service. Both products pay the same $889.73 general fund share for FY2027, but the 60-foot product carries $744.75 of Series 2016 debt service against $621.04 on the 50-foot product, so it pays $123.71 a year more ($744.75 minus $621.04). Both products occur in both plats, so the tax bill, not the phase, tells you which one a home carries.

How much are property taxes in Bonita Landing?

Bonita Landing homes sit in Lee County tax district 017, where the 2025 millage totalled 12.7970 mills. As an illustration only, before any exemption, 12.7970 mills on $637,500 (the 24-month median) is $8,158.09 a year (637,500 x 12.7970 divided by 1,000). The known yearly charges on the bill add $1,919.22 on the 50-foot CDD product ($1,510.77 + $50.00 City stormwater + $358.45 county solid waste) or $2,042.93 on the 60-foot product, for about $10,077.31 or $10,201.02 a year before association dues (not published), insurance and any exemption. The City adopted 0.8411 mills for FY2026-27 by Resolution 26-027, equal to the rolled-back rate; the 2026 stormwater and solid waste amounts are not yet published. Bills issue in November with a 4 percent discount for November payment, 3 in December, 2 in January and 1 in February.

What does the HOA maintain?

Under the recorded Declaration (Sections 5.14, 8.6 and 8.7(a)), the Bonita Landing association maintains the lawns, shrubs, trees and the landscaping installed with each home on the front and accessible parts of every lot, the lot irrigation equipment, the street lights on association property and the common areas, as a common expense. Irrigation draws on-site lake water under a South Florida Water Management District water use permit valid to May 12, 2037, and the Declaration bars private wells.

Who maintains the roof and exterior paint?

Each Bonita Landing owner does. The recorded Declaration (Section 8.7(b)) leaves the roof to the owner, adding that "all tile roofs shall be power washed no less than once every other year or as needed", along with exterior paint, garage and entry doors, original perimeter fences or walls, lot swales, utility lines serving only that lot, rear-yard landscaping and the strip between the lot line and the curb unless the association takes it on. Colour changes need architectural approval.

Can I rent out my Bonita Landing home?

Yes, within the recorded rules. The Bonita Landing Declaration (Sections 5.1 and 5.4) sets a minimum lease of 30 consecutive days, requires a written lease with a copy to the association at least 15 days before the term starts, bars subleasing and assignment, and lets the Board adopt a lease-approval procedure. The association's portal carries a Rental Application page run through the manager's ApplyToMove screening portal, and its fees and criteria are not public. Under section 720.306(1)(h), a rental amendment adopted after July 1, 2021 binds only owners who take title afterward or consent, apart from limits on rentals under 6 months or more than three a year; the 30-day minimum is in the original 2016 Declaration.

Are short-term rentals allowed?

No stay of under 30 days is permitted in Bonita Landing. The recorded Declaration sets a 30 consecutive day minimum lease and treats use as a public lodging establishment as a prohibited business use, so nightly and weekly rentals are out.

How many pets can I have?

The recorded Bonita Landing Declaration (Section 5.15) allows up to three domestic cats or dogs in total, plus fish and up to two household birds kept indoors. Pit bull and pit bull mix dogs and "other recognized aggressive breeds" are prohibited at the Board's discretion, and pets in common areas stay on a leash no longer than 6 feet.

Can I park a boat, RV or work truck at my home?

Only inside the garage. The recorded Bonita Landing Declaration (Section 5.16) bars any commercial vehicle, boat, trailer, recreational vehicle or motorcycle unless it is kept in a garage, and bars parking on the grass. Every home has a garage on the county layer, and the community has no boat or RV storage.

Can I install hurricane shutters or impact windows?

Yes, through the association. The recorded Bonita Landing Declaration (Section 5.10) allows temporary shutters during a storm threat only, unless approved, but Florida's section 720.3035(6) governs over it: the board or committee must adopt hurricane protection specifications and may not deny an application that conforms to them, covering permanent fixed or roll-down shutters, impact windows and doors, polycarbonate panels, reinforced garage doors, roof systems meeting ASCE 7-22 and fixed generators. Whether the Bonita Landing Board has adopted its specifications is not public. Every home sits in a 160 mph design-wind area for Risk Category II buildings and inside the wind-borne debris region.

What amenities does Bonita Landing have?

Bonita Landing's amenities are a lakeside park and a playground. The county cost card for park Tract P1 on the lake's north shore records a 148 square foot restroom building with a 334 square foot open porch, a 420 square foot pier, a 180 square foot pavilion and 2,500 square feet of blacktop parking, all built in 2017, and the association's photo gallery and the 2025 county aerial show a fenced playground at the northwest corner. The county cards, the association's photos and the 2025 aerial show no clubhouse, community pool, fitness room, sports courts, dog park, golf, marina, boat ramp or boat and RV storage. The CREW Flint Pen Strand trailhead is about a quarter mile west across Bonita Beach Road SE.

Can I fish or kayak on the lake?

The recorded Bonita Landing Declaration (Section 12.2) says no owner may use the lakes "except as may be permitted from time to time by the Association or the CDD", bars boats powered by gasoline or diesel, and states that water levels "are not guaranteed". The current rules on fishing, paddling and swimming are not public, so we read the association's current rules with a buyer before relying on any lake use.

Who owns the lake?

Lake Tract L, 46.88 acres in the centre of the loop, is owned of record by Lennar Homes, LLC on the Lee County Property Appraiser's cost card, re-checked October 12, 2026. The plat dedicates lake maintenance easements and the maintenance of Tract L to the Bonita Landing CDD, and Lennar's 2021 deed of the common tracts to the association did not include Tract L. The CDD's March 19, 2026 minutes record that "the District will eventually be responsible for all lake maintenance", and its FY2027 budget has no lake-maintenance line.

What is the lawsuit between the CDD and Lennar?

The Bonita Landing CDD sued Lennar Homes, LLC in circuit court (case 2024-CA-007567) over the lake embankment; the district's audited statements say the outcome cannot be determined. The district's Board has budgeted for the litigation and, in August 2026, authorised staff to prepare a survey of the pond. The district's minutes, agenda packages and audits are public records.

What flood zone is Bonita Landing in?

Every sampled point and every parcel record we tested in Bonita Landing is in Zone X, area of minimal flood hazard, on FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer (October 12, 2026), on Lee County panels 12071C0679F and 12071C0685F (effective August 28, 2008). We tested 15 points, including lake-edge and corner lots, the lake centre and the entrance, and all 231 parcel records. FEMA's pending layer shows no map change here, and the Lee County revision taking effect March 2, 2027 changes six other panels, not these two.

Do Bonita Landing homes need flood insurance?

Whether a lender requires flood coverage on a Bonita Landing home is the lender's determination on that home. Citizens has its own rule: from January 1, 2027 Citizens requires flood coverage on every new and renewing personal residential policy that includes wind coverage, whatever the zone, and it already applies from January 1, 2026 where Coverage A is $400,000 or more; condominium unit-owner, tenant contents and wind-excluded policies are exempt. Every Bonita Landing home is single-family, so the rule reaches a Citizens wind policy on any home here. The City of Bonita Springs is Class 5 in FEMA's Community Rating System, and the discount that applies to an NFIP policy outside the special flood hazard area, as every Bonita Landing parcel is, is 10 percent. No homeowner or flood premium is published; a carrier quote on the specific home is the only figure.

What schools serve Bonita Landing?

The School District of Lee County's SchoolSite Locator (Lee County 26-27) placed every one of 13 Bonita Landing tests on October 12, 2026 in the South Zone, sub-zone 3: Elementary Zone Q (Bonita Springs, Pinewoods, San Carlos Park, Spring Creek and Three Oaks elementary schools), Middle Zone GG (Bonita Springs Middle Center for the Arts and Three Oaks Middle) and High School South Zone 3 (Bonita Springs High, Estero High and South Fort Myers High). A zone is a choice zone, not a guaranteed seat, under the Student Enrollment Plan 2026-2027. The nearest zone school, Bonita Springs Elementary, is about 6.5 miles and 15 minutes from the entrance; confirm the assignment with the district's lookup at contract.

Bonita Landing FAQ: Seller Edition

Sellers ask what a Bonita Landing home in Bonita Springs is worth, how many have sold, whether a lake lot, a pool or the plat changes the number, what selling costs, and what the association, the CDD and Florida law require. The answers below come from Lee County recorded sales, the recorded Declaration, CDD records and Florida Statutes.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County recorded sales through September 25, 2026; county roll dated October 11, 2026; recorded Declaration, 2016; Bonita Landing CDD FY2027 adopted budget; Florida statutory rates read October 12, 2026).

What is my Bonita Landing home worth?

The best single anchor for a Bonita Landing home is the 24-month county record: 20 recorded sales to September 25, 2026 at a median of $637,500, from $530,000 to $900,000, at $303.98 per square foot of county heated area. Your home's number then depends on its county heated area against the repeating sizes (1,677 to 2,445 square feet for the six repeating plans), its plat, its lot and the CDD product on its tax bill. Start with our free home valuation and we will build the Bonita Landing number for your home from the recorded sales of its size group.

How many Bonita Landing homes sold in the last year?

Lee County recorded six qualified Bonita Landing sales in the 12 months to September 25, 2026, every one a resale, from $530,000 to $707,000. Over longer windows to the same date the record shows 20 sales in 24 months, 38 in 36 months and 70 in 60 months. The county count and an MLS closing count can differ, because the MLS reports closings by its own subdivision field and date.

What is the median sale price in Bonita Landing?

The 24-month median is $637,500 (20 Lee County recorded sales to September 25, 2026; the middle pair sold at $635,000 and $640,000). The 12-month window holds only six sales, too few for a reliable median, so we print their range ($530,000 to $707,000) instead. Over 36 months the median is $649,500 (38 sales) and over 60 months $687,500 (70 sales). All recorded history from January 9, 2017 shows 318 qualified sales at a $422,096 median, but that figure includes Lennar's first sales from 2017 to 2021.

What did Bonita Landing homes sell for in the last 12 months?

Lee County recorded six Bonita Landing sales in the 12 months to September 25, 2026: $630,000 in October 2025 (2,032 square feet of county heated area, built 2019, 4 bedrooms), $585,000 in December 2025 (2,032 square feet, built 2020, 4 bedrooms), $530,000 in January 2026 (2,202 square feet, built 2020, 3 bedrooms), $640,000 in March 2026 (2,445 square feet, built 2017, 3 bedrooms), $612,000 in June 2026 (1,852 square feet, built 2016, 3 bedrooms) and $707,000 in July 2026 (2,251 square feet, built 2019, 4 bedrooms). Three were in Phase 1 and three in Unit Two.

What is the price per square foot in Bonita Landing?

Over the 24 months to September 25, 2026, Bonita Landing's 20 recorded sales show a median of $303.98 per square foot of county heated area. Inside that same window, homes of 2,202 square feet or less recorded 11 sales at $309.40 per square foot, lake-tract lots 10 sales at $324.92 and other lots 10 at $277.68, Phase 1 10 sales at $306.33 and Unit Two 10 at $299.87. A row compares only with a row in the same window, and county heated area is not the same measure as a listing's living area.

Are Bonita Landing prices going down?

Calendar years tell the story with their counts named. Bonita Landing's median rose from $392,500 in 2019 (60 sales, 55 of them builder sales by Lennar) to $772,500 in 2023 (20 sales), up 96.8 percent, then eased to $670,000 in 2024 (16 sales) and $635,000 in 2025 (13 sales), down 17.8 percent from 2023 to 2025 ($635,000 divided by $772,500 is 0.822). In 2026 through September 25 the record shows 4 sales from $530,000 to $707,000, too few for a median. Medians in a community this small move with the mix of sizes sold, and we do not forecast prices.

Is now a good time to sell in Bonita Landing?

The record can tell you the setting, not the timing. In the 12 months to September 25, 2026, Lee County recorded six Bonita Landing resales from $530,000 to $707,000, and 20 sales over 24 months at a $637,500 median. No builder is selling inside the community (Lennar's last builder-direct sales were in 2021), so a listing competes with other resales. Days on market and inventory come from the MLS, and we pull them with you for your size group before you decide.

How long does it take to sell a home in Bonita Landing?

Days on market for Bonita Landing come from the Southwest Florida MLS, not the county record: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-10). The county record shows the six recent sales spread across October and December 2025 and January, March, June and July 2026. We pull the current pace for your size group when we prepare the listing.

Does a lake lot sell for more in Bonita Landing?

The Bonita Landing record shows no consistent lake premium. Over 24 months to September 25, 2026, lake-tract lots recorded 10 sales at a $637,500 median ($590,000 to $900,000) against 10 sales at $620,750 ($530,000 to $730,000) on other lots; over 36 months the order reverses, 17 at $640,000 against 21 at $655,000; over 60 months it flips back, 31 at $750,000 against 39 at $670,000. Size and plan mix move these medians as much as the water does, so we price a lake lot against its own size group sale by sale.

Does a pool add value in Bonita Landing?

The record does not set a rule. Over 24 months to September 25, 2026, 16 Bonita Landing sales of homes carrying the county's private-pool record sold at a $637,500 median, and 4 sales without it sold from $530,000 to $690,000. Four sales are too few for a comparison, and the county flag is today's record rather than the record at the time of each sale, so we read each pool home against comparable sales individually.

Does Phase 1 or Unit Two sell for more?

Over 24 months to September 25, 2026, Phase 1 recorded 10 Bonita Landing sales at a $698,500 median ($612,000 to $900,000) and Unit Two 10 at $595,750 ($530,000 to $649,000); over 60 months, 35 at $714,250 against 35 at $649,000. The gap is mostly plan mix: Phase 1 holds 71 of the 101 homes of 2,251 square feet or more, and among homes of 2,202 square feet or less over 60 months, Phase 1 recorded 11 sales at $612,000 against Unit Two's 30 at $632,500.

Which home size sells for the most?

The 2,445 square foot homes carry the highest median among Bonita Landing's repeating sizes: 18 sales at $767,500 over the 60 months to September 25, 2026, against 20 sales at $652,000 for 2,032 square feet, 10 at $637,500 for 2,202 square feet and 11 at $580,000 for the 1,677 and 1,852 square foot homes together. The 11 homes of 2,251 square feet recorded 3 sales from $575,000 to $750,000. Over 36 months, homes of 2,251 square feet or more recorded 16 sales at $735,000. We read sizes from county heated area and never by plan name.

What does it cost to sell a home in Bonita Landing?

At Bonita Landing's 24-month median of $637,500, the two statutory lines a Lee County seller customarily pays are documentary stamps of $4,462.50 (6,375 x $0.70) and an owner's title premium of $3,262.50 ($575 plus $537,500 x $5.00 per $1,000), $7,725.00 together. At the $900,000 high sale they are $6,300.00 and $4,575.00. Commission is negotiable and closing-fee amounts vary by title company, so they are not printed; the estoppel certificate has its own capped fee.

Who pays documentary stamps and title insurance in Lee County?

In Lee County the seller customarily pays the documentary stamp tax on the deed, $0.70 per $100 of the price, and the owner's title insurance policy, priced at Florida's state-set rate of $5.75 per $1,000 up to $100,000 and $5.00 per $1,000 from $100,000 to $1,000,000. That is custom, not law: the contract controls who pays each item, and it is negotiable.

What will I net from my Bonita Landing sale?

We do not print a net figure, because it depends on your price, your mortgage payoff, the commission you negotiate and the closing items your contract assigns. The two statutory lines are known from the price (about $7,725.00 at the $637,500 median), and the estoppel fee is capped by statute. We prepare a net sheet for your Bonita Landing home on your own numbers before you list.

Does the association have to approve my buyer?

The recorded Bonita Landing Declaration contains no approval of sales and no right of first refusal. The association's portal does carry a Buyer Application page, run through the manager's ApplyToMove screening portal, with fees and criteria that are not public. We confirm the current process for your home when the listing is prepared, so the buyer's timeline accounts for it.

What is an estoppel certificate and what does it cost?

An estoppel certificate is the association's signed statement of what a Bonita Landing account owes, which the title company relies on at closing. The 2016 Declaration set "up to $200.00" within 15 days, but section 720.30851 now governs: issue within 10 business days of a written or electronic request, no fee if late, a statutory base fee of $250 plus $100 expedited and $150 if delinquent, with current DBPR-adjusted caps of $299, $119 and $179. The association's actual fee may be lower. The manager's site sends orders to HomeWiseDocs.

Who pays the resale capital contribution?

The buyer pays it under the recorded 2016 Bonita Landing Declaration: a Resale Capital Contribution due at each resale, "initially set as $500.00" unless the Board changes it by uniform resolution, plus any capitalization contribution the Board sets. Transfers to an owner's wholly owned entity, a spouse, children or the estate, between co-owners, or to an institutional lender are exempt. The current amount appears on the estoppel certificate.

What must I disclose about the HOA?

Florida's section 720.401 requires a seller of a home in a homeowners' association to give the buyer the association disclosure summary before the contract is signed; a buyer who does not receive it may void the contract before closing. For a Bonita Landing sale we pair it with the recorded Declaration.

What must I disclose about the CDD?

Florida's section 190.048 requires a bold notice in every contract for the initial sale of a home in a community development district that the district may impose taxes or assessments. On a resale, the recorded Bonita Landing Declaration (Section 11.2) obliges every owner to disclose the CDD in writing to a buyer. The tax bill's CDD line, $1,510.77 or $1,634.48 for FY2027, is the clearest way to show it.

Do I have to mention the lake lawsuit?

The case is a public district record: the Bonita Landing CDD sued Lennar Homes, LLC in circuit court (case 2024-CA-007567) over the lake embankment, and the district's audited statements say the outcome cannot be determined. What Florida law requires a seller to disclose is a question for your own attorney, and we do not give legal advice. We do put the public district records in a buyer's hands early, so nothing in them surprises the buyer late.

Does the CDD bond follow the house when I sell?

Yes. The Bonita Landing CDD assessment is levied on the lot, not on the owner, so it stays with the home and appears on each year's tax bill. The debt part ($621.04 on the 50-foot product and $744.75 on the 60-foot product for FY2027) is generally fixed for the term of the Series 2016 bonds, which reach final maturity on December 15, 2047, unless that lot's share is paid off; the operations part can change each year.

Will my buyer's property taxes be the same as mine?

Usually not. Florida's homestead exemption and the Save Our Homes cap change what a given owner pays, and a buyer's assessment resets after a sale, so a Bonita Landing buyer's ad valorem bill can differ from yours; the sampled 2025 bills show assessed values that differ from sale prices. The CDD line depends on the lot's product, not on its assessed value.

Do I have to disclose the flood zone?

The map record is public: every sampled point and every parcel record we tested in Bonita Landing is in Zone X, area of minimal flood hazard, on FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer (October 12, 2026), on Lee County panels 12071C0679F and 12071C0685F (effective August 28, 2008). What you know about past flooding, claims or damage at your home belongs on your own disclosure forms. Lee County's public damage-assessment layers return no record inside Bonita Landing, but those layers are partial.

Does my roof age affect my Bonita Landing sale?

Roof age matters to a buyer's insurer. Under section 627.7011(5), an insurer may not refuse to issue or renew a homeowner policy solely because the roof is under 15 years old, and Bonita Landing's original roofs, built from 2016 to 2021, reach 15 years from 2031 to 2036. The Declaration's clause that tile roofs be power washed at least every other year points to tile as built. Permit records and any roof invoices help a buyer's insurer.

Do I need association approval for repairs before I sell?

For exterior work, yes. The recorded Bonita Landing Declaration requires the association's prior written approval for any exterior change, fence, landscaping change or colour, and driveways must be pavers or an approved hard surface. We read any planned work against the Declaration with you before it starts.

Can I put a For Sale sign at my Bonita Landing home?

Only with architectural approval. The recorded Declaration (Section 5.7) allows no sign, including a "for sale" sign, without it. Florida's section 720.304 separately protects up to two specified flags no larger than 4.5 by 6 feet, a freestanding flagpole up to 20 feet and a security-company sign within 10 feet of an entrance, so "no signs or flags" overstates the rule.

How are showings handled at the entrance?

The Bonita Landing entrance on Bonita Beach Road SE is a divided entry with a landscaped median and a stone monument sign; the road tract's county cost card records no gatehouse or gate, and the recorded Declaration has no gate provision. Whether the entry has gate arms or a card reader is not shown in the records we read, so we confirm the current entry arrangement before the first showing.

Can I rent my home while it is listed?

Yes, within the recorded Bonita Landing rules: a minimum of 30 consecutive days, a written lease, a copy to the association at least 15 days before the term starts, no subleasing, and any lease-approval procedure the Board adopts. The association's portal runs rental applications through the manager's ApplyToMove portal. If a tenant is in place, we plan showings and the closing date around the lease term.

Will my buyer be able to rent the home?

Yes, under the same recorded rules: a 30 consecutive day minimum, a written lease, a copy to the association 15 days ahead and no subleasing, with stays under 30 days not permitted. Under section 720.306(1)(h), a rental amendment adopted after July 1, 2021 binds only owners who take title afterward or consent, apart from limits on rentals under 6 months or more than three a year, so a buyer takes the rules in force when the buyer takes title.

Should I renovate before selling?

The county record holds no measure of what a renovation returns at Bonita Landing, so we do not put a value on a project. What the record does show is that buyers compare a home with the recorded sales of its own size group, so we walk the home with you, compare it with those sales and name the repairs a buyer's inspector and insurer are likely to raise. Exterior work needs the association's prior written approval.

How do Bonita Landing prices compare with VillageWalk?

On detached homes in the same windows, Bonita Landing recorded 38 sales at a $649,500 median over the 36 months to September 25, 2026 against 114 VillageWalk detached sales at $664,500, $15,000 apart; over 60 months, 70 at $687,500 against 210 at $674,950, $12,550 apart. The two communities sell different mixes of homes, and VillageWalk adds its Town Center and published quarterly dues, so we compare plan size to plan size rather than median to median.

Which CDD product is my home, and does it matter to buyers?

The Bonita Landing CDD sorts its 219 lots into 125 units of a 50-foot product and 94 of a 60-foot product, and both occur in both plats; no public record we read assigns a width to a given lot, so your tax bill's CDD line tells you which one your home carries. For FY2027 the 60-foot product pays $1,634.48 against $1,510.77, $123.71 a year more, all of it debt service. Buyers who compare yearly costs will see the line on the bill.

What is the best month to list in Bonita Landing?

Monthly listing and closing patterns for Bonita Landing come from the Southwest Florida MLS: Information not available at time of publishing (checked 2026-10-10). Six recorded sales in 12 months are too few to show a seasonal pattern in the county record, so we set the list date with you from the current MLS pace for your size group.

Who is the best realtor to sell a Bonita Landing home?
