The walk communities of Naples: Village Walk, Island Walk, and Verona Walk

Village Walk, Island Walk, and Verona Walk are some of the most buzzed about communities in Naples, Florida due to the extensive amenities and living up to the resort style life.  These communities are very active in Naples real estate.  If you look at the 2010 statistics below you will notice the popularity of these communities.  A top selling feature is that these home are “Built Solid”, each home has been individually poured with solid concrete making them stand apart from the rest.

The vibe most people get from these “Walk” communities is that they never have to leave except to go to the super market.  Everything else is a short walk away.  A nice plus about these communities is that even with such an abundance of amenities the homeowner’s association fees are still considerably low.  The proximity to the Gulf also keeps the cost of insurance down.
