HomeGuidesLocal Development

Midtown at Bonita is a 68-acre mixed-use development under construction on Bonita Beach Road, just east of I-75. It is designed to serve as Bonita Springs' walkable town center, and it will be one of the largest retail and dining destinations in Southwest Florida.

01What Is Midtown at Bonita?

The development combines 315,000 square feet of retail, restaurant, wellness, and entertainment space with 400 luxury residential units and a 165-room boutique hotel. More than 30 acres of preserved open space, lakes, and pedestrian pathways connect everything together.

02Confirmed Restaurants

Several restaurants have already been announced: LowBrow Pizza and Beer, The Hangry Bison, Jeff's Bagel Run, Beau's BBQ, Mason's Famous Lobster Rolls, Gelato and Co., Cold Stone Creamery, Panera Bread, Chipotle Mexican Grill, and Three Sixteen Cafe. More announcements are expected as construction continues.

03Confirmed Retail and Services

National and regional retailers are anchoring the commercial space. TJ Maxx and Ulta Beauty are the largest confirmed tenants, joined by Club Pilates, The UPS Store, Good Vets, Pacific Dental Services, Mathnasium, Noire the Nail Bar, SugaringLA, and Bonita Beach Wine and Spirits.

04Timeline

Retail construction broke ground in November 2025, and the first tenants are expected to begin building out their spaces in spring 2026. Full build-out continues through 2027 as additional phases come online.

05How Close Is It to Vivid Shores?

Midtown at Bonita sits roughly 5 minutes from Vivid Shores by car, directly along Bonita Beach Road. Once complete, it will be the closest major retail and dining hub to the community. Residents will reach dozens of restaurants, shops, and services without driving to Coconut Point or Naples.
