Esplanade by the Islands is in Collier County, so property taxes follow the county millage plus any community-specific assessments.
Esplanade by the Islands sits within its own Community Development District, so plan on a CDD assessment as a non-ad-valorem line on your Collier County tax bill in addition to the resort HOA — ask for the current per-homesite figure.

For context, the Collier County figure in our FY2025-26 millage file is a typical total of about 11.05 mills, and actual parcel totals vary by municipality and taxing district, so treat it as a planning number, not a quote.
