The Tigertail area encompasses the residential neighborhoods surrounding Tigertail Beach on the northwest side of Marco Island. Named after the iconic Tigertail Beach — a local favorite known for its tidal lagoon, sand dollar hunting, and stunning sunsets — this area offers a more relaxed, nature-oriented lifestyle compared to the island's more developed southern sections. XL Homes of SWFL builds custom homes in the Tigertail area that capture the neighborhood's natural character while delivering modern luxury and hurricane-resilient construction.
The Tigertail neighborhood features a mix of canal-front homes with boat docks, interior homes on spacious lots, and newer construction that has revitalized the area in recent years. The area offers larger lot sizes than many sections of southern Marco Island, providing more room for custom home designs with generous outdoor living spaces. Canal-front properties provide boat access to the Gulf via Collier Bay and Big Marco Pass, making this area attractive to boating enthusiasts who want easy water access.
Building in the Tigertail area follows Marco Island's city building codes with standard Collier County permitting. Many lots are on the canal system, providing boat access to the Gulf via Collier Bay and Big Marco Pass. Canal-front properties require seawall assessment and may need reinforcement or replacement before construction. The area's proximity to Tigertail Beach and the Conservancy areas means some properties may have environmental considerations for native vegetation and wildlife. XL Homes evaluates every Tigertail lot thoroughly to ensure a smooth construction process.
In the Tigertail area, XL Homes provides custom home construction, tear-down and rebuild services, and renovations. We design canal-front homes with private docks, impact-rated windows, elevated foundations, and outdoor living spaces that take advantage of the area's water views and proximity to Tigertail Beach.
