About Vasari

Vasari is a gated community of 766 homes in Bonita Springs, built around Vasari Country Club — an 18-hole championship golf course. Day to day, the nearest golf course, Vasari Country Club, is about 0.1 miles straight-line from the community's center; the nearest library, Bonita Springs Public Library, is about 1.9 miles away; the nearest hospital, NCH Healthcare Bonita, about 5.9 miles.

Amenities — private club and community amenities centered on the Vasari Country Club (amenity list compiled from the club's and community materials and market descriptions, so confirm current amenities and membership terms with the club/association) — include Vasari Country Club — an 18-hole championship golf course, a clubhouse with formal and casual dining, a resort-style pool, tennis courts, a fitness center and spa, bocce, a gated entry.

On paper, the community sits in evacuation zone B. The average assessed just value across its 846 residential parcels was $547,576 in the county's 2026 roll.

Two things shape a purchase at Vasari more than the amenity list. The first is cost structure. Unlike the no-CDD communities elsewhere in Bonita Springs, Vasari does carry a community development district: the Vasari CDD showed up at $1,883.85 on a sampled 2025 tax bill, alongside smaller City of Bonita Springs stormwater and Lee County solid waste lines — about $2,262 in non-ad-valorem assessments on that one parcel. Amounts vary by lot, home and product type, but the CDD is a recurring public charge worth factoring in before comparing list prices. The second is bundled golf, and it cuts both ways. Because Vasari is a private bundled-amenity community, a home purchase includes membership in the Vasari Country Club Master Association and access to the club — the 18-hole championship course, clubhouse dining, a resort-style pool, tennis, a fitness center and spa, and bocce. That suits people who intend to use it; it also means you help fund the club whether or not you play. The exact level of golf access and any separate dues vary by plan, so confirm the current membership structure with the club.

It also helps to understand how Vasari is assembled, because listing searches surface a lot of names. Vasari is a gated umbrella community built by WCI Communities starting around 2000, with roughly 766 homes — a mix of single-family and multifamily product — spread across Italian-named villages such as Toscana, Matera, Trieste, Altessa, Cassia and Firenze, all under the one master association. Most homes date to roughly 2002 to 2006.

A couple of practical notes for anyone getting serious: the community sits in Lee County evacuation zone B, so check the current zone and the official flood-zone lookup before you buy, and confirm current dues, membership terms and rules directly with the association. This page is an independent, records-based starting point — not affiliated with the HOA, club, or developer.

Questions residents ask

Is Vasari gated?
Yes — Lee County records list it as a gated community.
What evacuation zone is Vasari in?
Zone B, per Lee County Emergency Management (checked August 2026). Always confirm your exact address on the county's official lookup before a storm. Check your address ↗
What day is trash pickup in Vasari?
Thursday, per the county's collection map (checked August 2026).
What county commission district represents Vasari?
District 3 — Commissioner David Mulicka, per Lee County GIS (checked August 2026).
Who built Vasari?
Vasari (Vasari Country Club) is a gated bundled-golf community in the City of Bonita Springs, built by WCI Communities beginning around 2000 across Italian-named villages such as Toscana, Matera, Trieste, Altessa, Cassia and Firenze. The Lee County GIS boundary records about 766 residential units across the mapped villages. The community development district on the tax bill is the Vasari CDD ($1,883.85 on the sampled bill) — the district's name matches the community (WCI/Vasari community materials, Lee County GIS, and the sampled 2025 tax bill, checked August 2026).
Is golf included when you buy in Vasari?
Vasari is a private bundled-amenity community, so a home purchase includes membership in the Vasari Country Club Master Association with access to the community's amenities (the clubhouse, resort pool, tennis, fitness and dining). Exactly what level of golf access is included, and any separate golf dues or fees, depends on the current membership plan — confirm the current membership structure and golf terms directly with the club (Vasari Country Club materials, checked August 2026).
Is Vasari in a flood zone?
The county's flood map layer doesn't provide zone labels for this area, so we don't publish a breakdown. Check your address on FEMA's official flood map. Flood-zone status is not a flood determination for insurance or lending purposes.
