What Bella Collina does

Bella Collina, operating as Bella Collina, LLC, is a privately-held luxury gated community and country club located on 1,900 acres in Montverde, Florida, roughly 30 minutes from Walt Disney World and 90 minutes from the Gulf of Mexico. The community spans two pristine lakes — the private spring-fed Lake Siena and adjacent Lake Apopka (the third-largest lake in Florida) — and features terrain with rare rolling hills for Florida. Its centerpiece is an 18-hole, approximately 7,700-yard Sir Nick Faldo-designed championship golf course with six tee boxes per hole, supplemented by Har-Tru tennis and pickleball courts, a 3,000 sq ft athletics center, an aquatics center with 75-foot lap lanes, a full-service spa, two clubhouse restaurants, an Italian-inspired wedding and events venue, and scenic walking trails. The company is led by President Spencer Schar (The Club) with Director of Golf Jim Kroll leading PGA-certified instruction.

The business runs an integrated, multi-vertical monetization model. Real estate (core) sells lakefront estate homes, golf-course homes, lots, and Siena condominiums (2- and 3-bedroom lakefront units starting from $442,900) through partner builders including Toll Brothers, Davila Custom Homes, Vogel Building Group, J. Drewes Construction, and Primo Homes. Recurring revenue is anchored by two membership tiers — Golf Membership and Sports Membership (the latter bundling golf access with spa, dining, aquatics, and the 3,000 sq ft fitness center) — plus ancillary point-of-sale across the Pro Shop, daily green fees, and club rentals. Transactional revenue is generated from Siena short-term vacation rentals, multi-day golf academy programs ($799-$1,599 per person), full-service spa offerings (massages, facials, HydraFacials, package bundles ranging roughly $145-$405), wedding and corporate event bookings (50-180 guests), golf tournament hosting, and Stay & Play vacation packages.

Bella Collina targets horizontal customer segments — affluent home buyers, golf enthusiasts, wedding and corporate event clients, vacation rental guests, golf academy students, and spa and wellness guests — using direct-to-consumer channels anchored by a centralized Real Estate Sales Center, dedicated phone lines per business unit, the bellacollina.com website, blog content, social media, and model home/open house tours. A Fly & Buy program reimburses up to $2,000 of airfare for qualifying real estate purchases, indicating deliberate geographic expansion of the buyer pool.
