All Sold Out, All Resort-Level — Very Different Trade-offs

Latitude Margaritaville Daytona, Del Webb Bexley, and Solivita are three of the most searched 55+ communities in Florida — and all three have sold out of new construction. The buyers comparing them are typically Northeast transplants who want resort-level amenities, have $350K–$600K to spend, and are trying to decide: beach coast vs. Tampa side vs. Orlando side.

The honest answer is that location drives the decision more than amenities. All three are well-built and well-amenitized. The question is whether your family, medical needs, airports, and lifestyle preference point you east toward Daytona, northwest toward Tampa, or central toward Orlando.

Who Each Community Is Right For

Choose Latitude Margaritaville if:
Beach lifestyle + Northeast roots + airport access
The private beach club is genuinely important to your retirement vision. You're coming from the Northeast and connect with the casual, social, beach-vacation culture. Daytona Beach International Airport 5 miles away matters for your travel frequency. Factor in coastal insurance before finalizing numbers.
Choose Del Webb Bexley if:
Tampa proximity + lawn-free living + Del Webb quality
Being 25 minutes from Tampa's hospitals, airport, and services is your priority. You want lawn maintenance permanently off your list. Del Webb's brand and structured programming matter. Comfortable with the smallest community size (~850 homes) and resale-only inventory.
Choose Solivita if:
Pickleball + resort depth + Orlando orientation
17 pickleball courts and 3 on-site restaurants are daily-life priorities. You're Orlando-oriented rather than Tampa or east coast. Lower inland insurance costs help offset the mandatory $195/mo club fee. Largest community of the three — most activity depth.

Beach coast, Tampa side, or Orlando corridor?
