December 15, 2008

KISSIMMEE, FL --- For boating enthusiasts and residents who simply enjoy living on the water, Bellalago SM / Isles of Bellalago SM is a dream come true.

With over a mile of shoreline on world-famous Lake Tohopekaliga (Toho) and over 400 acres of inland lakes and waterways, the award-winning community of BellalagoSM/Isles of Bellalago SM has what is arguably the most attractive waterfront address in Central Florida with some neighborhoods accessed by a bridge spanning water to give the illusion of driving onto an island.

"It's all part of the charm and lakeside ambience that make Bellalago SM / Isles of Bellalago SM a very special Central Florida address for those who enjoy boating and others who simply just enjoy a waterfront setting and the magnificent views," said Bruce Cole, Avatar's® general manager of primary homebuilding operations in Central Florida and developer of Bellalago SM / Isles of Bellalago SM.
                 
In addition to developing individual neighborhoods of upscale homes oriented to water, Avatar® has pumped millions of dollars into a boat house and a state-of-the-art boat lift and ramp that provides resident boat owners a direct link to and from Lake Toho and their private docking facilities.

To utilize the boat lift and ramp, resident boat owners are required to be registered, carry personal and property liability insurance, and display boat decals for their boats and automobiles, Cole said.

The boat lift/ramp and boat house are located on an inlet to Lake Toho near Club Vialago, the  multi-million-dollar lifestyle center and amenity complex that overlooks Lake Toho and includes an elaborate welcome center, band shell, state-of-the-art fitness center, the Sunset Terrace grille and pavilion, and an aquatic complex with free-form pool and water slide, junior Olympic pool, spa, wading pool, and children's water park.

Club Vialago also includes tennis, basketball and volleyball courts, a children's playground, and 1,300-foot-long boardwalk with gazebo on Lake Toho, while Club Isola features a clubhouse with fitness center, zero-entry pool, heated spa, and a children's water park and playground.

Also available to children of residents in Bellalago SM / Isles of Bellalago SM is Bellalago Academy, a unique K-8 charter school that earned an A grade for the 2007-2008 school year from the Florida Department of Education.

Winner of over 30 design and planning awards, including two Best Master Planned Community honors in 2004, BellalagoSM/Isles of BellalagoSM also features the $25 million Village Shops at Bellalago which is anchored by a Publix supermarket with drive-thru pharmacy, retail shops, banks and restaurants.
