Pelican Bay Melinda Gunther September 6, 2025
Bay Villas is a distinctive villa neighborhood on the south end of Pelican Bay, just off Crayton Road. Built between 1981 and 1983, this intimate enclave of 71 attached and detached villas offers something rare in Pelican Bay: a true “courtyard lifestyle.” Many residences feature broad brick courtyards, tropical landscaping, and private pools tucked behind walls of lush greenery. The design creates an atmosphere of privacy and tranquility while still being steps away from the heart of Naples’ most coveted beach community.
Inside, Bay Villas floor plans range from approximately 1,540 to over 1,900 square feet with two- and three-bedroom layouts. Most villas also include two-car garages, and many have been beautifully updated over the years with modern kitchens and open living spaces. A select number of homes offer lake views, but the majority are designed around the courtyard setting, perfect for entertaining, dining al fresco, or simply enjoying your own private outdoor oasis.
Living in Bay Villas means enjoying all of Pelican Bay’s exceptional amenities: private beach access with beachfront dining, two beach clubs, miles of walking and biking paths, a world-class tennis program, state-of-the-art fitness center, and the option to join Club Pelican Bay with 27 holes of championship golf. The neighborhood’s location also makes it easy to reach Waterside Shops, Artis–Naples, and the restaurants of Venetian Village.
Bay Villas is a pet-friendly community, and owners may rent their properties up to two times per year with a 60-day minimum lease. This is an attractive option for seasonal residents who still want the flexibility of renting.
