Guaranteed Privacy and Limited Entry
With a security guard on-duty at the front gate, you have to be approved to have access to the neighborhood. This practice is great for keeping out solicitors and loiterers and ensures minimal invasions of privacy in your life. Guests are, of course, still welcome, but the security guards up front are always looking out for your safety. Plus, living in such an exclusive area will make you feel like a VIP. Additionally, some areas (like a few we offer in Sarasota) even provide residents with perks like private beach views.
Access to Amenities
Maybe one of the best perks of a gated community is access to tons of different amenities located right in the neighborhood. Depending on which community you live in, you could enjoy access to everything from private pools, to golf courses, to fitness centers and parks. Many gated communities in the Sarasota area offer all of these and more. Plus, some communities even offer classes and events that are exclusive to the community, so you’ll never run out of things to do close to home!
Get to Know Your Neighbors
Since gated communities are more exclusive, you’ll really get to know the people who live around you. You’ll run into them on your daily walks, see them at the community tennis courts, and maybe even join a carpool if anyone is taking kids to school. In regular neighborhoods it’s easy to go about your day without even saying hello to the people next door. In gated communities, you have the chance to interact regularly, become familiar, and develop trust with the entire community.
Quiet and Eco-friendly

That means more freedom to let the kids play outside and take the dog for a walk without worrying about the danger speeding cars.
