An Experience You’ll Admire
Have you ever wondered what life is like at Bella Collina? From the 19,000 acres of rare rolling hills, sparkling lakes, and
a signature Sir Nick Faldo golf course, to name a few, there is so much to love about this top golf community near
Orlando.
Bella Collina is a place to build lasting memories in the new era of country club living. To get you started, we’ve compiled
a list of our favorite ‘must-do’ Bella Collina experiences. Even though it was a challenge to get it down to only 10, we
think this will give you a taste of the luxury lifestyle you can expect at Bella Collina.
1. Couples Massage at The Spa — There’s nothing
better than luxuriating in a lush couple’s massage amidst
the privacy and beauty of the scenic countryside. Let the
stresses of your day melt away as you sip champagne
and eat chocolate-dipped strawberries from the luxury of
copper soaking tubs. This is what the good life feels like.
2. Play the Signature #7 Hole — Bella Collina’s
signature #7 hole is an uphill, lengthy par 3 that is both
beautiful and challenging. The entire course, designed
by legendary Sir Nick Faldo, is incredible of course—but
make sure to take time to appreciate the subtle touches
of this particular spot.
3. Stroll the Grounds — One of the most amazing
features of Bella Collina is its ability to transport you to a
different time and place. Where else can you experience
actual rolling hills right here in Central Florida? Take a
leisurely afternoon to walk around the picturesque
grounds and admire the Tuscan-style architecture. It is
absolutely breathtaking.
4. Tennis Match on the Har-Tru Court — Meet up with
a friend for a rousing tennis game on one of Bella
Collina’s six Har-Tru courts. These pristine courts are set
against awe-inspiring scenery, elevating a typical game
to something truly memorable.
5. Lunch at the 19th Hole Restaurant — After an
exhilarating game of tennis, grab a bite to eat at the 19th
Hole. Here, renowned chefs bring their culinary creations
to life with a selection of fresh, seasonal dishes. While
you’re here, why not pair your meal with a glass of wine
chosen from their expertly-curated selection? You
deserve it.
6. Socialize at the Clubhouse — At the heart of Bella
Collina you’ll find the impressive 75,000-sq.-ft. grand
Bella Collina Clubhouse. This intricately-designed
complex is complete with fountains, cobblestone
streets, stone statues and more—making it the perfect
place to meet up with friends.
7. Choose Your Own Adventure — If you’re feeling
ambitious, you could drop into a pilates or yoga class at
the Sportivo fitness center. But we don’t blame you if
you’d prefer to take a refreshing dip in the resort-style
pool, lounge by the whirlpool spa or grab a drink at the
cabana bar.
8. Date Night at Cucina — Make it a date night to
remember without ever leaving the community. This
members-only restaurant offers guests an upscale
culinary experience, including fresh seafood, steaks,
small bites and craft cocktails. Make sure to visit the wine
cellar and humidor after dinner for a special treat.
9. Bike the Scenic Trails — Bella Collina puts nature on
display in this paradise-like setting featuring ancient live
oaks and slender Italian cypress trees. Hop on your bike
for a relaxing ride through the meandering trails,
winding up and down the hillside. Getting in a good
workout while enjoying unbeatable views is the perfect
way to end a hectic day.
10. Picnic by Private Lake Siena — Grab some wine
and cheese and head over to the private, 350-acre
spring-fed lake in the center of the community. This
picturesque setting is the kind of place where memories
are made.
