About The Hamptons Neighborhood
The Hamptons is one of the largest gated condominium communities in MetroWest, set along the western shore of Turkey Lake. Developed in 2000–2001, the community is organized around New York–themed streets — Times Square Avenue, Astor Village, and Soho Street among them — with mid-rise residential buildings, a central clubhouse, and lakefront walkways.
Residences here are condominiums and townhome-style units generally ranging from about 658 to 1,634 square feet, spanning one-, two-, and three-bedroom floor plans, with a handful of ground-floor units offering private attached garages. The price point has long made The Hamptons a primary search area for first-time buyers, investors, and anyone wanting lock-and-leave ownership close to the tourist corridor. Entry to the community is controlled by a staffed gate operating around the clock.
The setting is the differentiator: lake-side buildings look directly over Turkey Lake, and the community's own fishing pier, gazebo, and lakeside trail give residents genuine waterfront access without leaving the gates. The namesake MetroWest Golf Club and the dining of the Hiawassee Road corridor are both a short drive away.

How The Hamptons Compares
The Hamptons makes its case on value: gated, amenity-rich, lakefront condo ownership at a price point well below new construction, inside an established MetroWest location that newer suburban communities can't match for proximity to Universal and the Millenia area.
| Feature | The Hamptons | Typical New-Construction Condo | Single-Family Resale Nearby |
|---|---|---|---|
| Home Type | Gated condo / townhome-style | Gated condo | Detached single-family |
| Year Built | 2000–2001 | 2015–present | Varies (often 1990s–2000s) |
| CDD Fee | No | Often Yes | Varies |
| Gated / 24-hr Guard | Yes — staffed gate | Sometimes | Rarely |
| Relative Entry Price | $ (most accessible) | $$$ | $$$ |
💡 Value Proposition: For buyers who prioritize a guarded gate, resort amenities, and a lakefront setting over square footage, The Hamptons delivers an entry-level path into one of southwest Orlando's most convenient locations — with no CDD assessment to carry.

The Hamptons HOA & CDD Information
The Hamptons is governed by a condominium owners' association (COA). As is typical for a gated condo community of this kind, the monthly fee bundles together a broad range of services and amenity upkeep that single-family owners would otherwise budget for separately.
There is no Community Development District (CDD) assessment here — the community predates the CDD-heavy development pattern common in newer suburban Orlando, which keeps the all-in carrying cost simpler than many newer alternatives.
