Who built Renaissance?
Renaissance is a gated, upscale estate community in unincorporated Fort Myers (near Treeline Avenue and the airport corridor), built out beginning around 2001 around The Club at Renaissance and its Arthur Hills-designed 18-hole championship golf course. It combines about 256 estate and villa-style homes across six neighborhoods (Terabella, Vittoria, Via Lago, Monteverdi, Villagio and Triana) with 130 Triana carriage homes — roughly 386 residences in all — governed by the Renaissance Community Association. Golf membership is optional through the private club rather than bundled with the home. Unlike many nearby communities Renaissance is served by a Community Development District: the sampled 2025 tax bill carries a Renaissance CDD assessment plus the county solid-waste assessment (Lee County GIS, the sampled 2025 tax bill, the Sunbiz association record and Lee tax-roll common-tract owners, and The Club at Renaissance materials, checked August 2026). No specific homebuilder or developer is named here beyond what the public record supports.
How many homes are in Renaissance, and what neighborhoods?
Renaissance is a compact, upscale estate community of about 386 residences: roughly 256 grand estate and villa-style homes across six neighborhoods — Terabella, Vittoria, Via Lago, Monteverdi, Villagio and Triana — plus 130 carriage homes in Triana. The Lee County GIS boundary records about 379 units across its two mapped neighborhood records ('Renaissance' single-family and 'Triana of Renaissance'), a handful shy of the community's own ~386 as the estate neighborhoods are aggregated into one GIS record. Confirm exact counts with the association (Lee County GIS and Renaissance/Fort Myers market materials, checked August 2026).
Does Renaissance have a CDD?
Yes. Renaissance is served by a Community Development District (the Renaissance CDD), which appears as a non-ad-valorem line on the annual tax bill and funds community infrastructure. On the sampled 2025 bill the Renaissance CDD assessment was about $2,741 (plus the county solid-waste assessment). CDD amounts vary by home and pay down over time, so confirm the current figure for a specific property (sampled 2025 Lee County tax bill, checked August 2026).
Is Renaissance in a flood zone?
Its mapped flood features break down as 50% zone AE (high-risk area), 50% zone X (outside the high-risk area). That's county map data — not a flood determination for insurance or lending purposes — so check your parcel on the official lookup.
