FORT MYERS, Fla., Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- GL Homes, one of Florida's largest privately owned homebuilders, has unveiled the Aruba, a new floorplan now available at Valencia Harbor, the premier 55+ active adult community in Fort Myers. Homes at the community range from the mid-$300,000s to the $600,000s.

The Aruba offers 2,167 square feet of air-conditioned living space and features two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, one half bath, a den, great room and a two-car garage with an optional golf cart bay. Designed for modern 55+ living, the home showcases an open-concept floor plan with an expansive foyer ceiling that leads into a great room and kitchen with an oversized island. A screened and covered patio extends the living space outdoors, while the flexible den provides versatility for a home office, hobbies or hosting guests.

The primary suite serves as a private retreat with two walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bathroom, while a separate guest suite with its own ensuite bathroom offers privacy for visiting family and friends. Thoughtful design elements throughout the home emphasize comfort and everyday flexibility. The Aruba is priced at $424,900

"Buyers today want a home that works as hard as they do, whether that means a dedicated office, room for guests or simply more breathing space," said Misha Ezratti, president of GL Homes. "The Aruba was designed with that flexibility in mind."

Valencia Harbor offers resort-inspired amenities that make it easy for residents to embrace the lifestyle from day one. The Community Center is now open, serving 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 featuring resort-style pools, dining venues, expanded fitness spaces and a variety of 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 positioned near Buckingham Road and State Road 80, combining accessibility with a desirable Southwest Florida setting.
