We are also building a new home in Buttonwood. We had Vera from T & D design our pool and outside kitchen/bar. She did a great job. T & D is putting in the pool, the Villages is building the bar and kitchen using T & D's outside cabinets (marine type cabinets). The cost was about the same. Only big benefit on doing after is that you pay tax's on the price of the house and pool when finished. If you did afterwards your assessment would be less. Example, if you pay $100.000 for pool and kitchen after the house was built your assessment would probally be half that.

PS: My neighbor called T & D last week to have a screened lanai installed, they told him it would be at least 30 days for someone to come out and give an estimate. (they are so busy).
