About Renaissance
Renaissance is a gated community of 379 homes in Fort Myers. Day to day, the nearest golf course, The Club At Renaissance, is about 0.1 miles straight-line from the community's center; the nearest library, Dunbar-Jupiter Hammon Public Library, is about 6.7 miles away; the nearest hospital, Gulf Coast Medical Center, about 3.2 miles.
Amenities — amenities compiled from The Club at Renaissance and Fort Myers market materials (confirm current amenities and membership terms with the club); Renaissance is an upscale estate community with an OPTIONAL private golf club (not bundled) — include a gated entry, The Club at Renaissance — a private club with an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Arthur Hills (membership is optional, not bundled with the home), a clubhouse with dining, tennis courts and a fitness center, resort-style pool and social amenities at the club.
On paper, the community sits in evacuation zone D. The average assessed just value across its 494 residential parcels was $903,420 in the county's 2026 roll.
Two things shape the cost of ownership at Renaissance more than the amenity list, and both cut against the assumptions buyers bring from nearby communities. The first is a Community Development District. Renaissance carries a Renaissance CDD, so the recurring public charges on a sampled 2025 in-community tax bill included a CDD assessment of about $2,741 alongside a Lee County solid-waste assessment of about $366 — a non-ad-valorem total near $3,107. A CDD funds community infrastructure, its amount varies parcel to parcel, and it pays down over time, so the current figure for a specific home is worth confirming rather than assuming.
The second is golf, and here Renaissance breaks the bundled-club pattern. The Club at Renaissance is a private club built around an Arthur Hills-designed 18-hole championship course, but membership is optional and tiered (golf, sports and social categories) rather than attached to the deed. You can own a home here without funding the club at all — which suits buyers who don't intend to play — but it also means access to the course is not guaranteed by ownership. That trade-off, more than any single feature, is what a prospective buyer should weigh first.
It helps to understand how the community is assembled, because listing searches split it. Renaissance is a gated, unincorporated Lee County community near the Treeline and airport corridor, mapped in county records as two neighborhoods — the estate and villa homes of Renaissance plus the Triana carriage homes — for roughly 379 units (about 249 single-family and 130 multifamily), most built between about 2003 and 2017, all under one master, Renaissance Community Association, Inc.
A couple of practical notes for anyone getting serious: this sits in Evacuation Zone D with flood mapping split roughly half AE and half X, so check the specific parcel, and wired internet runs through Blue Stream Fiber or Xfinity. Confirm current CDD figures, membership terms and dues with the association and club. This page is an independent, records-based starting point — not affiliated with the HOA, club, or developer.
