Vanderbilt Surf Colony

Three gated towers at the north tip of the Bluebill peninsula, between the bay and the beach.

Vanderbilt Surf Colony occupies the north tip of the Bluebill peninsula: three eleven-story buildings at 11, 15 and 17 Bluebill, gated, set back behind tennis and bocce courts with the bay on one side and Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park on the other. Its largest plans, at roughly 2,070 square feet, are the biggest on Bluebill Avenue, the lobby has been remodeled with fitness and social rooms, and quarterly fees cover everything but electric.

Vanderbilt Surf Colony Sales, 2024 to 2026

Eighteen Vanderbilt Surf Colony residences closed between September 2024 and September 2026, sixteen of them two-bedrooms, at a median $734,000 and a range of $444,000 to $1,055,000. Floor is the clearest price driver: residences on the ninth through eleventh floors, where the view clears the mangroves to the Gulf, sold at a median $553 a square foot, about 38% more than the $400 paid on the first three floors. The top sale was a ninth-floor two-bedroom at 11 Bluebill for $1,055,000 in July 2026, and the two three-bedroom residences sold for $775,000 and $955,000.

The three buildings trade a little differently. Surf Colony I at 11 Bluebill recorded seven sales at a median $800,000 and carries the highest fees, about $17,200 to $17,300 a year in recent listings; Surf Colony II at 15 Bluebill recorded eight at a median $707,500, and Surf Colony III at 17 Bluebill three, with fees in both near $14,400 to $15,900. Residences sold at a median 94% of their final asking price after a median 118 days. As of September 26, 2026, six residences were for sale from $695,000 to $1,075,000, about five months of supply at the pace of the past year. Rentals are a steady second market: over the same two years, owners posted eleven Surf Colony rental listings with a peak-season rate, at a median $8,000 a month and a typical range of $6,200 to $8,800, and off-season rates across Vanderbilt Beach run roughly half the seasonal figure. The Vanderbilt Beach Market Report tracks the neighborhood each month.

Closed sales reported through the Naples Area Board of REALTORS® MLS, September 2024 to September 2026. Fees are total annual recurring fees shown in recent listings; rental figures are peak-season asking rates, with the typical range the middle half.

Where Vanderbilt Surf Colony Sits at Vanderbilt Beach

Vanderbilt Surf Colony is No. 22 on the map below, at the north tip of the Bluebill peninsula, marked in gold, north of Bluebill Avenue with Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park around it. Gulf Breeze (21) runs down the east side along the marina, Vanderbilt Towers (23) the west side beside the park, and Baypoint (20) sits at the southeast corner on the Vanderbilt Channel by the Bluebill bridge. The Gulf-front buildings (1 to 19) line Gulf Shore Drive south of Bluebill Avenue, and the bay and lagoon buildings are numbered 24 to 38. The Vanderbilt Beach condo buildings guide uses the same numbers.

Residences at Vanderbilt Surf Colony

Six residences to a floor in each building, in two and three-bedroom plans, with the largest three-bedroom homes running to roughly 2,070 square feet under air and two private lanais. Views change substantially by stack: western exposures take the Gulf and the sunset over Delnor-Wiggins, eastern residences look across the bay and the mangroves toward the channel, and corner residences get both along with extra window line. The upper floors carry the premium: the ninth through eleventh floors sold at about 38% more per square foot than the lowest three over the past two years. Many residences have been updated, and the buildings have put money into roofs, elevators, exterior paint and lanais. Floor plans are available on request.

Built in 1980, Vanderbilt Surf Colony falls under Florida’s condominium safety law: a milestone structural inspection at 30 years (25 where the local building official requires it) and every 10 years after, and a structural integrity reserve study every 10 years, the first of which was due by December 31, 2025. Ask the association for the latest inspection report, the reserve study and any planned special assessments before you make an offer. Resale buyers also have seven days after receiving the condominium documents to cancel the contract.

Amenities and Life on Baker-Carroll Point

The grounds carry a full set of amenities: a heated lap pool overlooking the bay, tennis, pickleball, bocce and shuffleboard, and a lobby rebuilt to include a fitness room and a social room with kitchen, library and ping pong. Kayak spaces and marina boat docks are available for lease when one opens, with Gulf access through Wiggins Pass; confirm clearance and draft for your boat before counting on a dock. Quarterly fees cover cable, internet, water, insurance and reserves — everything but electric. Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park is at the end of the avenue, Vanderbilt Beach is just south, and Mercato, the Ritz-Carlton and the Turtle Club are minutes away.
