Tierra Mar & Las Brisas: Classic Pelican Bay Villa Living

Lifestyle intro

Morning light spills into your private courtyard in Tierra Mar or Las Brisas. You slip outside barefoot, coffee in hand, listening to the fountain before hopping on your bike for a quick ride to the tram. Ten minutes later you are on the sand. This is old school Pelican Bay villa living at its best.

Big-Picture Appeal

• Intimate, low density neighborhoods with mature landscaping

• Courtyard style homes that feel like private resorts

• Walkable and bike friendly to beach trams and Pelican Bay amenities

• Attached garages for storage and security

• Ideal price points for both move up buyers and downsizers

Neighborhood Breakdown

• Tierra Mar

  • Charming streets, lush landscaping and a “tucked away” feel.

  • Many homes feature private pools, walled courtyards and soaring ceilings.

  • Perfect for buyers who love character and a more classic Pelican Bay vibe.

• Las Brisas

  • Mediterranean inspired villas with tile roofs and gracious outdoor spaces.

  • Some homes enjoy water or garden views, all enjoy a quiet, private setting.

  • Often a favorite among buyers transitioning out of a larger home.

Who It’s Perfect For

• Owners who love the idea of single level living with private outdoor space

• Buyers moving up from an older condo who want a more residential feel

• Seasonal residents who want an easy to manage second home

• Downsize sellers from other Naples neighborhoods who still want Pelican Bay amenities

Smart Seller Notes

• Buyers compare Tierra Mar and Las Brisas directly with updated condos at similar price points, so fresh paint, lighting and minor updates go a long way.

• Outdoor areas photograph and video beautifully. Professional marketing that highlights courtyards and pools is critical.

• Floor plan transparency matters. Modern buyers want to see how they can open kitchens and great rooms even if the home is not fully renovated.

• My strategy usually includes positioning your villa as “the sweet spot” between condo and estate homes for maximum exposure.

• For current pricing behavior and negotiation leverage, reference the Naples Luxury Market Pulse for Pelican Bay
