Trilogy Orlando vs Solivita

Two Different Visions of "Resort Living"

Trilogy Orlando (Groveland, Lake County) is built by Shea Homes around a single extraordinary amenity investment: the 57,000-square-foot Magnolia House, with a full-service restaurant and bar, resort pool, culinary kitchen, and art studio, plus solar panels standard on every home. Solivita (Poinciana, straddling Polk/Osceola County) is nearly six times the size — 5,900 homes on 4,300 acres — with two championship golf courses, over 150,000 square feet of amenities spread across multiple centers, and a self-contained village with its own restaurant, pharmacy, and farmers market.

The choice between them is really a choice between amenity depth-in-one-place versus scale-and-variety spread across an entire small town.

Side-by-Side Comparison

Which Community Fits Which Buyer

• Choose Trilogy Orlando if: you want the lowest property tax rate in the Orlando metro, solar panels standard to offset utility costs, and a single concentrated amenity center rather than needing to navigate a much larger community.
• Choose Solivita if: golf is a genuine priority and you want two courses bundled into a resident culture built around them, you want the widest possible range of clubs and organized activities (200+ resident clubs), and you're comfortable with Polk County's higher tax rate and an active CDD assessment.

Both communities sit roughly 30–45 minutes from Downtown Orlando and Disney, and both trade some commercial density and specialist medical proximity for their resort-scale amenity investment — the honest advice for both is to spend a weekend in the surrounding area, not just inside the gates, before deciding.
