Englewood, Fla., has been called the "Gem of the Suncoast," "the Heart of the Suncoast," "a bit of Heaven on Earth," "a place unspoiled by high rises and high prices," and "where the livin' is easy," yet it still remains one of Florida's best kept secrets, a secret about which more and more Floridians and "up north" tourists are learning.

Englewood and its year-round residents retain the easy-going lifestyle of a small, close-knit community, which invites family and special guests back each season to revel in the secret it holds dear. This unspoken secret emanates throughout Englewood, a community of communities, setting comfortably on an area straddling two counties, harbored by several small islands and magnificent beaches in a tropical setting.

While nourishing its small town atmosphere, Englewood also rises to the demands of growth and modernization, keeping up with new ideas and ways to maintain its way of life. Englewood is a beach community that thrives on its cultural events, nature parks, beaches, fishing, boating, and so much more.
Located on the beautiful Lemon Bay, off the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, Englewood is just a short 85-mile trip away from metropolitan Tampa Bay, 90 miles north of Naples, and only 50 miles north of Fort Myers. Englewood is easily accessible from U.S. Business 41 and Interstate 75.
