golf at Mediterra
One of the most beautiful and amenities filled communities in all of Florida. Mediterra offers two 18 hole courses designed by Tom Fazio, an active tennis program and fitness center and a gorgeous clubhouse. Homes styles range from estate to villas and coach homes. Mediterra is home to the world’s first 36-hole golf facility to be certified as an Audubon International Silver Signature Sanctuary. Both the North and South courses were designed by Tom Fazio, known as the ‘master of environmentally-sensitive golf course designs.’ Rolling bunkers and land forms were incorporated into the design of the courses to complement the Mediterranean countryside ambience of the community. Memberships are limited to 275 per 18 holes. The South Course affords elevated greens, huge chipping areas, and large, expansive hazards. The North Course provides a rustic, more natural Florida look with water and sand hazards.
