Holiday inspirations are in abundance this week at the Marsala Holiday Home Tour. Offering fresh ideas and new approaches to decorating for the holiday season, guests are invited to tour two distinct and eclectic Marsala residences adorned with seasonal trimmings. Local luxury home builders Distinctive Communities, Inc and Coastal Breeze Homes have "decked the halls" of their two beautifully crafted models to capture the warmth of the holiday season.
Marsala at Tiburon is a secluded, gated enclave of 56 oversized custom homesites located off of Livingston Road. Overlooking the famed Greg Norman Black Course, Marsala is set amidst the rolling fairways, native grasses, and coquina sand bunkers of one of America’s most recognizable golf communities. Resort style luxury living is a standard feature in Marsala, where residents enjoy fine dining, fitness, spa services, luxury beach transport, and concierge services all attached to the exclusive Ritz Carlton Golf Resort located at Tiburon Naples.
Beginning today, tour guests can see first hand what makes Marsala so unique while touring two of the finely crafted and exquisitely built residences offered in Marsala. Elegantly decorated for the holiday season, both the Renoir and the Grand Etesian models will be open for viewing today thru Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm and Sunday from noon to 4.
Distinctive Communities Renoir model exhibits exotic flair with a coastal beat. This two-story home showcases the combined efforts of Stofft Cooney Architects, a firm on the leading edge of design, and Collins and DuPont Interiors, a nationally recognized, award-winning interior design firm in Bonita Springs, to bring a new sense of style to Naples. Totaling more than 5,300 square feet, this home has a fresh inviting palette, with a bright and exuberant color scheme, inspired by hues found in the Caribbean. Clear blues, rich yellows and raspberry reds accentuate the transitional Spanish style in a clean simplified way while echoing the Cuban infused décor that is both fun and inviting but still sophisticated.
Nearly every space echoes to outdoor rooms beyond, from its four bedrooms plus den, four and one-half baths, to the living areas, out to the covered lanai and pool areas. The rear of the home surrounds the hand-laid stone lagoon-style pool, where the waterfalls reflect island living. Off the family room, the covered loggia features a beautifully detailed gas stone fireplace, seating area and private pool bath, ideal for entertaining.
Distinctive Communities has been creating graceful, subtly sophisticated homes in Naples and Estero for more than a decade and during the Holiday tour, guests and potential homebuyers will be able to see firsthand the finishing details that can make a space inviting and livable while enjoying the sights and sounds of the season.
The Grande Etesian by Coastal Breeze Homes is a study in classical seaside elegance.

Walking thru the double doors of the Estesian model is like journeying thru the halls of the Queen Mary 2; sophisticated, understated and chic with a nod to beachside Neapolitan living. This expansive family friendly home blurs the line between indoor and outdoor living; the entire home surrounds a beautifully detailed 400 square foot hand crafted loggia with an outdoor fireplace and sitting area to enjoy the custom infinity edge pool and spa. The refined coastal feel of the outdoor living space is enhanced by the mahogany stained bead board ceiling crafted entirely of native cypress wood.
Featuring four bedrooms, four-and-a-half baths, a study, dining room and outdoor living area, Coastal Breeze’s in-house interior designer, Kim Schmidt, decorated the model with exclusive furniture lines and custom accessories in colors of sand and sea.
