Hop on your golf cart to visit the Sports & Racquet Club, bike to a class at the Arts & Culture Center, or simply enjoy a stroll to a neighbor’s home. The Riverland golf cart paths are more than just a convenience; they are the arteries of the community, fostering a connected, eco-friendly, and active environment that distinguishes Riverland from any other development in Port St. Lucie.

Now expanding to 24 acres, this facility is a paradise for sports enthusiasts. It features one of Florida's largest private pickleball facilities with 53 courts, including covered options for all-weather play. Tennis players will find 15 courts, and the 20 bocce courts provide endless opportunities for friendly competition. Living in Riverland means having professional-grade sports facilities right in your backyard, managed by a sports director who organizes leagues, tournaments, and social events.
Riverland is comprised of several distinct 55+ neighborhoods, including Valencia Cay, Valencia Grove, Valencia Walk, Valencia Parc, and the newest, Valencia Vista. While all residents share access to Riverland's master amenities, each Valencia neighborhood features its own private clubhouse, pool, and social hub, creating a more intimate community feel. Whether you are looking for new construction homes or a specific floor plan, exploring the unique character of each Valencia helps buyers find the perfect fit for their lifestyle within the grander Riverland vision.

The future of convenience is taking shape at the Riverland Town Center.

Well, I was recently in your shoes. I wanted to build a new home in Port St Lucie, and as a Realtor for 30 years, of course, I checked out a lot of new-construction communities here before buying. I decided on Riverland because it was the best value with the most amenities and low HOA fees, and it matched the lifestyle I was looking for.
And now that I live here, I thought I would let you know what it’s REALLY like to live in Valencia at Riverland Port St Lucie. Each one of the Riverland communities will have its own clubhouse as well. The Valencia Walk and Valencia Parc clubhouses have 37,000 and 38,000 square feet. Valencia Grove, Valencia Walk, Valencia Cay, and Valencia Parc all have a full outdoor bar.
These Valencia communities represent the pinnacle of 55+ active adult living, featuring a massive resort-style pool and spa, a 51,000 sq. ft. Wellness Center, and a grand social hall designed for live concerts and comedy shows. Residents enjoy a full-service RiverFresh Café, card rooms, a sports lounge, and an elite fitness center—all connected by the iconic Riverland Paseo.
There is no shortage of access to necessary staples and services around Riverland. The Cleveland Clinic Hospital is right across SW Village Parkway. Brand names like Publix, Target, and Bass Pro Shops are within a ten minute radius. In terms of entertainment and leisure activities, Tradition and the greater area of Port Saint Lucie abound with options for everyone. Hutchinson Island and its beaches are just a short half hour away. The New York Mets have their spring training at Clover Park, and golf fans will enjoy the greens at the PGA Golf Club.
