New Luxury Apartments Coming to Bentley Village

November 12, 2026 - 08:22

Vi at Bentley Village is set to enhance its offerings with a major redevelopment project that will introduce four new buildings featuring 72 luxury Independent Living apartments. These new units will provide stunning views of the lake and golf course, with floor plans ranging from 1,852 to 2,838 square feet. Each apartment will include screened outdoor balconies, semi-private elevators, open-concept kitchens and living areas, upscale bathrooms, walk-in closets, and underground parking with dedicated space for golf carts.

The entrance fees for these apartments will start at approximately $2.8 million, with construction expected to begin in 2027 and wrap up by 2029. A Priority Reservation List has been established, requiring a fully refundable deposit of $30,000 for those interested in securing a unit.

Penny Smith, the executive director, emphasized that this project will revitalize the campus and broaden living options for both current and future residents. The new buildings will complement the community's expansive 156-acre grounds, which have been a hallmark of luxury retirement living for over 30 years.

Brinkmann Constructors, the selected general contractor, anticipates the project will generate between 350 to 450 direct on-site jobs and 200 to 300 indirect jobs, significantly benefiting the local economy. With a commitment to high-quality design and construction, this project aims to enhance the daily lives of residents while continuing Vi's legacy of excellence in Southwest Florida.
