A second Costco location in South Naples is moving closer to completion and could open its doors as early as fall, according to recent project updates.
The new members-only warehouse is being built in the growing Collier Boulevard corridor, just east of Naples, where increased development activity has also brought projects such as Great Wolf Lodge and other large-scale commercial growth.
Planned for a 26-acre site at the southeast corner of Collier Boulevard and Rattlesnake Hammock Road within the Hacienda Lakes development, the new store will be significantly large, with plans calling for a roughly 162,700-square-foot facility and approximately 820 parking spaces. A fueling station capable of serving more than 20 vehicles at once is also included in the design.
Officials familiar with the project say Costco is targeting a fast-tracked construction timeline, consistent with the company’s highly efficient building model. Industry estimates suggest that once work begins, completion could take roughly 100 days, potentially allowing the store to open by early fall if everything stays on schedule.
The project has gone through local approval processes and previously faced opposition from nearby residents, though those concerns were later resolved through a settlement. As part of that agreement, adjustments were made to improve signage, enhance landscaping, and provide contributions toward nearby community improvements.
Costco acquired the land for approximately $19.4 million last year. Once open, the new location will become the company’s second warehouse in Collier County, joining its existing store on Naples Boulevard, which has served the area since 1999.
The continued expansion of major retailers along Collier Boulevard reflects the broader growth trend in South Naples, where large commercial and residential developments are rapidly reshaping the corridor.
