Gateway: The Definitive Fort Myers Development

The master-planned community of Gateway is not only home to one of the finest golf courses in Southwest Florida but it’s a place many people call home.  The neighborhoods of the Gateway in Fort Myers make up a family-oriented community and destination for family fun, sports and entertainment.  The Gateway Community has schools, nearby retail and restaurants and several world-class employers, like Sony Electronics, Comcast, VR Laboratories, Gartner Group and DirectTV. The 3,000-acre master planned community includes single-family homes, luxury homes, estate homes, condominiums, villas and coach homes.  Gateway Boulevard is the main street that runs through the community and features landscaped medians, and miles of sidewalks for walking and biking.  Located close to I-75 between Daniels Parkway and Colonial Boulevard, Gateway is near Southwest Florida International Airport, Florida Gulf Coast University and new retail, dining and shopping options at the Gulf Coast Town Center Mall and Coconut Pointe Mall. Gateway is heaven for people who enjoy lots of amenities in their own neighborhood.  There is something for every member of the family: bike or jog on 15 miles of Gateway recreation trails; golf on the championship-designed golf course; walk to the Boston Red Sox Spring Training facility at adjacent JetBlue Park; a dog park; Gateway Commons pool; parks; dessert from Norman Love Confections or Oly’s Ice Cream; picnic at Gateway Fun Park; art classes; dining and dancing; fine dining at Griffin Room or casual dining at the Grill Room; complimentary fitness clinics and yoga classes; tennis classes or competitive tennis teams; and a 6 field soccer complex.      There are also children’s golf and tennis development clinics.  It’s the ideal neighborhood to make friends with a bountiful amount of social activities, like bride, mah-jong, monthly Ladies Breakfast Club, a gardening club as well as organized sports for adults, children and families.  Gateway is close to the sun and fishing on Fort Myers Beach, the Caloosahatchee River, and the islands of Sanibel and Captiva.
