South of Naples, Fiddler’s Creek is located just off Collier Boulevard on the way to Marco Island, and comprises nearly 4,000 acres, zoned for a total of 6,000 residences.

The Fiddler’s Creek community ranks as one of the most esteemed neighborhoods in the world and continues to make an eloquent statement of well-designed luxury residences.

The initial concept of the Fiddler’s Creek community was the vision of Aubrey Ferrao, The President and CEO of Fiddler’s Creek LLC. In 1993, when the majority of Southwest Florida real estate developers were focused on acquiring land in north Naples and Bonita Springs; Fiddler’s Creek LLC chose to seek land in south Naples and on Marco Island. The first land acquisition consisted of 1,300 acres that would become Fiddler’s Creek, a master-planned community with the dream of future developments. The second land acquisition increased the community of Fiddler’s Creek to its current size of 3,931 acres with completion scheduled in the year 2020.

Boasting an ideal location as one of the most sought after addresses in Southwest Florida; the magnificent residences are located within numerous community villages set amongst the many fresh water lakes.
