GL Homes Unveils New Aruba Floorplan at Valencia Harbor

GL Homes, one of Florida's largest privately owned homebuilders, has introduced a new floorplan called the Aruba at Valencia Harbor, a premier 55+ active adult community in Fort Myers. The Aruba offers 2,167 square feet of air-conditioned living space and includes two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, one half bath, a den, a great room, and a two-car garage with an optional golf cart bay.

Designed for modern 55+ living, the Aruba features an open-concept floor plan with an expansive foyer ceiling that leads into a great room and kitchen with an oversized island. The home also boasts a screened and covered patio that extends the living space outdoors, and a flexible den that can serve as a home office, hobby space, or guest area. The primary suite is a private retreat with two walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bathroom, while a separate guest suite with its own ensuite bathroom provides privacy for visiting family and friends.

Priced at $424,900, the Aruba is part of a broader expansion by GL Homes at Valencia Harbor, which includes resort-inspired amenities. The Community Center, now open, serves as a hub for fitness classes, social events, clubs, and everyday connections. Construction is underway on the Al Fresco Sports & Racquet Club, which will feature 12 pickleball courts, four tennis courts, bocce courts, an event lawn, a food truck plaza, a dog park, and a lap pool with shaded cabanas. Future plans also include a clubhouse with resort-style pools, dining venues, expanded fitness spaces, and additional social amenities.

Located just 25 minutes from downtown Fort Myers, Valencia Harbor offers easy access to fine dining, shopping, cultural attractions, professional sports, and the world-famous beaches of Sanibel Island. The community is situated near Buckingham Road and State Road 80, combining accessibility with a desirable Southwest Florida setting.
