Age-restricted living under the Florida sun in Solivita
The suburban, 55+ community of Solivita is in Central Florida’s “attraction zone” due to its proximity to the state’s major tourist draws: Walt Disney World, Universal Studios and Legoland. Solivita not only has quick access to these attractions, but also to private outdoor activities and nearby shopping and dining options. “When I moved here, it was for the attractions and the active environment, but most of all because there were lots of people around my age to enjoy it with,” says Bob Monica, President of the Solivita Wildlife Advocates. With a small village providing a pharmacy, spa, gym and numerous other facilities, Solivita offers a sense of privacy and seclusion from busier areas. People from all over the country choose to retire and relocate to Central Florida, and Solivita is known for its relaxed, prime location about 20 to 30 miles from the main draws and districts of Orlando.

Outdoor amenities galore available for Solivita residents
Solivita features plenty of resort-style outdoor activities. Locals can enjoy the subtropical temperature poolside, whether in privacy on some properties or at one of the 14 community pools. The neighborhood has pickleball courts at Freedom Park available for reservation, bocce ball courts, dog parks, playgrounds for visiting grandchildren and countless other outdoor amenities and fields. One of the most popular outdoor activities in Solivita is hitting the greens of Stonegate Golf Club. Weaved through the combined 36-hole fairways are 100-year-old oak hammocks and flowing streams. For activities on the water, kayaks and dragon boats are available, as well. The neighborhood sits right up against Lake Marion Creek Wildlife Management Area, which has over 8,000 acres of hiking trails, creeks and fishing, so the neighborhood is immersed in nature with many different animals. The Solivita Wildlife Advocates group, founded in 2020, promotes coexistence and respect between locals and the various species here. “When you move from the northeast and see a 7-foot alligator for the first time, you’re going to freak out,” Monica says. “Before I founded the organization, people used to call the city to remove them, and then the fatal trappers would come. Now, we have drastically reduced the numbers of these incidences.” The organization sponsors events where the community can come together to learn about the diverse wildlife that inhabits the area.
Sand pits and lakes are found on the harder golf courses within Solivita's Cypress golf course.

Spanish influences in Solivita architecture
Just through the gates of Solivita are several subdivisions that offer Spanish Revival homes with traditional stucco exteriors and contrasting red clay tile roofs. Home prices can range from $250,000 two-bedroom houses to three-bedroom properties that surpass $700,000. Palm trees tower over homes and shade the bright green lawns that sit on most properties, and although many streets do not have sidewalks, residents can be seen walking the residential areas. In fact, the street is not only occupied by cars, but oftentimes by golf carts, bicyclists and pedestrians. Parking is typically no hassle here, as most homes feature driveways and garages.
