They have just opened the brand new model home center in the Village of Moultrie Creek (way down south over the turnpike) but you will need to have a Village Sales Agent to get access to the homes (I believe there are over 40 new models you can see). There is a small sales office there so stop in and ask to see some model homes if you don't already have an agent assigned to you.
The Trolley Tour is also a good suggestion. I believe they still leave from Everglades Rec Center. Stop into the sales center there early in your trip to try to reserve one as they do fill up especially in this very busy season.
You also want to see several recreation centers of different types (Regional and Village). Consider Rohan for the history and story of The Villages. Other impressive ones are Eisenhower, Everglades, Fenney and First Responders.
Yes, spend some time in all 3 squares (plus Sawgrass and Ednas) and make sure you see the impressive Sharon Performing Arts Center (the door is usually open when the box offices are), but also just linger around a recreation center both indoors and out. Sit at a pool (Fenney is a popular choice) and talk to as many people as possible. Villagers are happy to answer your questions (and I'm happy to too - just PM me)
