LaVina Marketplace is a two-story retail and office center at Narcoossee Road and Dowden Road in north Lake Nona, in Orlando's 32827 ZIP code. Its buildings use three addresses: 9123, 9145 and 9161 Narcoossee Road. Unicorp National Developments developed the center, which was built in 2008 and 2009. Tenants include Tijuana Flats, Nona Social Bar + Kitchen, Taino's Bakery & Deli, Orangetheory Fitness, HOTWORX and a Nemours Children's primary care office. The four La Vina villages are a short walk away, and a Wawa sits next door.

LaVina Marketplace anchors the north end of Lake Nona, where Narcoossee Road meets Dowden Road. It has no grocery store; its strength is a mix of restaurants, fitness studios and medical offices, with offices on the second floor.

For the La Vina villages next door, it is a walkable neighborhood center. This guide reflects it as it stands in September 2026.

Pros, Cons and Our Take

Pros

  • A walkable center for the La Vina villages.
  • Pediatric and family medical care, fitness and a daycare in one place.
  • Gas and snacks next door at Wawa.

Cons

  • No grocery store in the center itself.
  • It's at the north end of Lake Nona, away from the central Narcoossee Road plazas.
  • Restaurant spaces have turned over.

Our Take

LaVina Marketplace does something most Lake Nona plazas don't: it puts medical care for kids, fitness and a daycare within walking distance of the homes around it. What it lacks is a grocery store, which is the main errand north Lake Nona residents still drive for. For La Vina buyers, it's a real everyday convenience; for the rest of Lake Nona, it's a destination for a workout or a Tijuana Flats dinner.

What the Neighbors Know

If you're looking at homes in the La Vina villages, this center is part of daily life: a walk to the pediatrician, a workout at Orangetheory, dinner at Nona Social. The full list is in our Lake Nona shopping guide.
