Tiburón Lifestyles

Located just off the Gulf of Mexico, the Tiburón at the Ritz-Carlton Resort in Naples, Florida, is one of the most exclusive golf communities in the U.S.   With two championship golf courses and world-class amenities, it's easy to see why Conde Nast Traveler Magazine voted Tiburón the top golf resort in Florida in 2010.  The 550 homes in the Tiburón community share the area with the Ritz-Carlton resort, as well as resort benefits such as fine dining, a comprehensive fitness center with spa and massage facilities and daily beach shuttle.  Increasingly, time-pressed buyers are looking for this level of five-star resort living in a tropical climate with the ongoing services and conveniences they've come to expect over the course of a professional career.

Golf at The Tiburón

As host to the annual PGA Tour Shark Shootout, the Tiburón attracts many of the top names in golf. Tiburón's main attraction lies in its two Greg Norman-designed championship golf courses -- The Gold and The Black.  Each course has been designed to enhance and protect the natural surroundings of the Florida coast with unique elements such as stacked sod wall bunkers and the absence of conventional rough while still providing a challenging atmosphere.  The onsite golf shop is particularly helpful in providing the latest in equipment as well as assistance in scheduling lessons  and making tee times.  Members also have the ability to take advantage of an "ultimate golf fitting experience" -- a two hour custom analysis of a player's individual swing characteristics to use as a baseline in building a club designed to help players hit the ball longer and straighter.  Previously available only to PGA Tour professionals, this service has proved beneficial to players of all ages and skill-sets.

Tennis at The Tiburón

Members have a choice of four lighted Har-Tru courts as well a full-service onsite tennis shop offering drills, clinics and personal instruction from a USPTA-certified tennis professional.
