Welcome to Naples

Welcome to Naples.

Situated along the Paradise Coast, Naples is a city that truly embodies the concept of paradise. Whether this is your first time visiting Naples or you’ve explored this picturesque locale before, you’ll soon find yourself immersed not only in Naples’ beauty but also in its vibrant culture and exhilarating amenities.

Widely considered as a collection of some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, Naples is home to beaches with powder-soft white sand and turquoise waters. North of downtown Naples, Barefoot Beach Preserve is an award-winning beach that invites guests to relax and unwind in a postcard-perfect setting. As you explore further along the coast, you’ll discover a variety of secluded seaside havens and green, open parks, making it easy to find tranquility and connect with nature in Naples.

The beating culture and entertainment heart of Naples is Third Street and the Avenues. Take steps along Fifth Avenue South, stretching between Naples Bay and Old Naples, and you’ll soon discover upscale boutiques, eclectic art galleries and world-class cuisine. Whilst exploring this historic district, formerly Naples’ business district, guests can take in a unique blend of glamour and the laid-back lifestyle Florida is coveted for. While this area is abundant with amenities and entertainment, the harmonious blend of historic and contemporary architecture alone inspires visitors to the area.

For memorable experiences beyond Third Street and the Avenues, Naples Bay and Tin City Waterfront Shops offer one-of-a-kind dining and retail opportunities. Sample fresh seafood and fall in love with bespoke goods created by local designers before embarking on an exhilarating boat or water sports adventure.

Taking to the water is an unmissable activity in Naples, whether you embark on a luxury charter or a personal boat rental. Explore Ten Thousand Islands or remote bays along the Gulf Coast and spot turtles, dolphins and a variety of different marine life.

Our Eco-Friendly and Sustainability Initiatives

LaPlaya Beach & Golf Resort is certified as a Green Business by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and has been recognized with a THREE PALM Designation in the AHLA Florida Green Lodging Program. In addition, it has earned the EPA’s ENERGY STAR certification and achieved GreenLeader Bronze Level status with TripAdvisor. We push well beyond ENERGY STAR, Green Business Program, or Green Key requirements with eco-friendly efforts to preserve and protect the indoor and outdoor environment.

From LED light bulbs to sensor control panels in guest rooms and public spaces, stem battery power to low-flow water valves, environmentally responsible cleaning solutions to ongoing recycling efforts, we make sure that not only is our resort green, but we make sure it’s easy for our guests to be green too.

CERTIFIED GREEN

LaPlaya Beach and Golf Resort is a certified Green Business, and we’re proud of it, but we’re also continually developing eco-friendly efforts to preserve and protect the environment, while still offering an indulgent (and healthier) resort experience.

DIVERSION FROM LANDFILL

Instead of disposable miniatures, our guests may treat themselves to the luxurious scent and body-drenching nourishment of our Lather bath & body essentials in large shower pump bottles. In addition to our self-imposed plastic straw ban, we also recycle our kitchen grease into biofuel and compost, further helping us divert as much of the resort’s waste stream from landfill.

WATER CONSERVATION

The hotel’s water-saving systems, water-miser faucet control valves and toilets, account for a 21% reduction in annual water use.

AIR QUALITY

We raise indoor air quality by circulating large amounts of outdoor air into guest rooms (all our accommodations have sliding glass doors!). The resort also uses low VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) flooring, sealants, paints, and adhesives.

GATOR DOCKS

LaPlaya Beach and Golf Resort has partnered with Gator Dock Works to install eight mini reefs under our marina. The mini reefs provide nursery habitats to help hundreds of native fish, crabs, and shrimp grow while filtering tens of thousands of gallons of water daily. This innovative technology is helping marine life to thrive in our waters.

REDUCTION OF CHEMICALS

We use Green Seal-certified cleaning products, resulting in sustainability and simplicity by producing environmentally responsible cleaning solutions.

TRANSPORTATION

Our guests have access to bicycles to explore Naples safely and comfortably. And if you prefer transport by water, we have kayaks and paddleboards waiting just for you!

ENERGY & CARBON

Our hotel is certified with LED light bulbs to sensor control panels in guestrooms and public spaces; EcoSmart thermostats in guestrooms allowing the HVAC system to shut down, eliminating wasteful cooling to reduce our energy footprint; Energy Star-rated electrical and mechanical equipment; VFD’s (variable frequency drives) to reduce Peak Load Demand on the property’s power grid.

Concierge Q&A

1. What does a day in the life of a concierge at LaPlaya Beach & Golf Resort look like?

Each day is a wonderful opportunity to meet our guests and provide the guidance and information needed to help them enjoy their LaPlaya visit. Dining, boat tours, Everglades boat tours, Spa requests, and transportation are the most common requests we receive.

2. What do you enjoy most about being a concierge?

Speaking to and meeting new people every day and helping them create beautiful memories of their vacation. Every day is an opportunity for a new experience!

3. How do you keep on top of the latest openings and happenings in Naples?

We maintain lists of all activities and restaurants in Naples. Activities such as boating/sightseeing, nature and wildlife, shopping, favorite restaurants, museums and art galleries. We consistently update these lists and keep track of events on Fifth Avenue, Third Street S., Mercato, and Venetian Village, which are noted on our Naples Happenings and Events List.

Q&A

4. If a guest only has a weekend to explore Naples, what are your recommended must-see spots?

My top recommendations would be sightseeing tours by boat of Naples, the Botanical Gardens, and enjoying our LaPlaya amenities, such as the Spa, beach, and watersports.

5. When you have a day off work, what is your favorite thing to do in Naples?

Relax by my lanai and pool, no matter what the season! Sometimes, I’ll go to the beach, take a boat tour with friends, or enjoy dinner and happy hour.

6. Finally, can you share with us a particularly memorable/special guest request you were able to accommodate?

Having worked here for 13 years makes it difficult to recall a single moment. However, I find it deeply fulfilling to listen to guests and grasp their desires for a special occasion, then assist in making it come true especially when they thank me for creating a memorable experience. Additionally, preparing a room with rose petals and champagne for a surprise proposal is always fun.

GUARDIANS OF THE SHORE:

Sea Turtles, Coastal Beauty and Ocean Experiences in Naples

Along Florida’s southwest coast, Naples is not only a destination for luxury coastal living, world-class shopping and elevated dining, it is also a living ecosystem. Here, land and sea meet in a careful balance with human development. Just as the hand of man has reshaped much of coastal Florida, nature does the same. Barrier beaches shift every year with storms and tides, and the rich ecosystem of the Everglades constantly reinvents itself in a cyclical process of renewal. And on the beaches surrounding Naples, a genuine miracle unfolds each summer as the sea turtles return.

A LIVING COASTLINE

Naples overlooks the Gulf of Mexico, where warm currents and nutrient-rich waters support a thriving and diverse coastal ecosystem. Mangrove forests line the edges of brackish estuaries, serving as buffers against storms and nurseries for a myriad of fish and crustaceans. Seagrass beds sway beneath the surface, providing food and shelter for countless marine species. Shore birds trace the tide lines, manatees drift through the coastal canals and dolphins patrol waters from Keewaydin Island to the Naples Pier.

Yet it is the beaches of Naples that play host to one of nature’s greatest marvels. These broad, clean expanses of sand, alternately illuminated by the crisp Florida sun and the moon’s soft glow, provide nesting grounds for some of the largest marine reptiles in the Northern Hemisphere.

WHEN THE TURTLES RETURN

Sea turtle nesting season in the Naples area runs from May through October, transforming the area’s beaches into crucial reproductive habitat. Most of the process unfolds under the cover of night, unseen by the crowds that frequent the coastline during daylight hours.

Female turtles — many of them returning to the very beaches where they hatched decades earlier — hoist themselves ashore with determination, using their powerful flippers to dig nests in the sand in which they will deposit their eggs. Each nest can contain more than 100 eggs, all carefully covered with sand before the turtles return to the sea. Most turtles will have laid all their eggs by August, and hatchlings typically emerge about 60 days after eggs are laid.

Loggerhead turtles are the most common species that nest on Collier County’s beaches. Identifiable by their powerful beaks and teardrop-shaped, reddish-brown shells, loggerhead turtles commonly weigh 300 pounds and travel thousands of miles to reach these nesting sites.

Green sea turtle nests are also periodically encountered, and the first endangered leatherback sea turtle nest ever recorded in the Naples area was discovered on Keewaydin Island in 2015.

PROTECTING A TIMELESS CYCLE

Sea turtles are at their most vulnerable when they emerge from their nests, and the new hatchlings must make their way down the beach to the sea. Today, hatchling sea turtles must contend not only with predators — birds, raccoons, foxes — but also light pollution. The hatchlings are naturally drawn to the brightest horizon, which for millennia has been the moon reflecting off the Gulf of Mexico. Today, it could just as easily be lights from the city. The challenges faced by sea turtles make their conservation all the more crucial. Throughout Florida, local and state agencies work alongside volunteers to help ensure the safety of mother and baby turtles alike through beach monitoring programs, lighting regulations, rescue and rehabilitation initiatives and public education campaigns. Here in Naples and the wider Collier County area, the Conservancy of Southwest Florida’s sea turtle program is one of the longest continuously running sea turtle monitoring research projects in the world. The organization has been monitoring nesting sites on Keewaydin Island for over 25 years — long enough that baby sea turtles they helped get to the Gulf 25 years ago could now be returning as adults.

A SHARED RESPONSIBILITY

The beaches of Naples are beautiful and tranquil — and sea turtles rely on that tranquility to survive. There are many ways visitors and locals alike can play a role. Leaving beachfront lights off at night helps avoid confusing hatchling turtles, and picking up beach litter makes it less likely that turtles will encounter potentially life-threatening refuse like six-pack rings and discarded fishing line.

Another great way to help turtles is to support or volunteer with the organizations that protect them. The Conservancy of Southwest Florida operates a 21-acre nature center, as well as offering eco boat tours in the Naples area, along with a wide variety of programming that helps protect local wildlife and educate the public.

Lastly — and perhaps most importantly — do not seek out nesting or hatching sea turtles unless turtles are being released as part of a publicly viewable hatchling release event. The best thing for sea turtles is our absence from their natural cycle.

Coastal Calm, Cultured Living

Coastal Calm, Cultured Living: Inside Naples’ Refined Lifestyle 66 EXPERIENCES

Naples offers a rare blend of tranquility and cultural sophistication. Residents here have opted for intentional living, reflected in pristine beaches, vast greenways, artist enclaves and luxury estates. As one of the wealthiest cities in the U.S., it has rightly earned a reputation for offering truly refined coastal living. With a growing appeal for executives, retirees and second-home buyers, Naples continues to distinguish itself as a place where coastal serenity and cultural depth exist in harmony.

YEAR-ROUND OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES, WHITE-SAND BEACHES AND WATERFRONT LIVING

One of the greatest luxuries of living in Naples is the area’s favorable climate. Averaging over 264 days of sun with winter temperatures in the 70s, residents enjoy consistent access to outdoor leisure.

On any given day, one might visit Naples Pier for a sunrise or sunset walk or head to Clam Pass Park for boardwalk access to nature. Those who enjoy exploration might visit Gordon River Greenway to bike the trails or kayak the waterways. Around every corner, the community celebrates time spent outside under sunny skies.

Located on the Gulf Coast, Naples’ calm waters provide a striking contrast to the rolling surf of the Atlantic. Here, the beaches feature fine quartz crystal sand, which lends to the signature powder-soft feel underfoot and nearly white, luminous appearance. The natural stillness of these beachlines provides tranquility where morning walks, midday swims and sunset gatherings are never lacking in ambiance.

Public access points also reflect the community’s desire to elevate the shoreline. Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park provides a natural escape with protected coastal habitats and expansive stretches of undeveloped beaches. Lowdermilk Park offers a refined setting with manicured grounds and easy water access.

THE “GOLF CAPITAL OF THE WORLD”

Naples has the highest number of golf courses per capita, earning it the nickname “Golf Capital of the World.” With over 90 courses throughout Collier County, the region provides an exceptional breadth of options for golfing enthusiasts. From private courses to championship-level fairways, Naples’ courses are recognized on the global stage. Venues like Tiburón Golf Club host PGA Tour and LPGA Tour events, reinforcing the area’s status as a premier golf destination. Beyond the game itself, golf is embedded in the community’s social fabric. Private club culture provides members access beyond pristine greens to include wellness facilities, fine dining and a calendar of curated social events.

A THRIVING CULTURAL SCENE

At the heart of Naples’ community is a flourishing arts ecosystem that is shaped by world-class performances, curated exhibits and an engaged philanthropic community. Naples’ arts institutions are supported by an active network of residents who have helped sustain a level of programming and artistic quality more commonly associated with large metropolitan centers.

Anchoring the scene is Artis, a multidisciplinary cultural campus that acts as the central hub for music and visual arts. Home to the Naples Philharmonic and The Baker Museum, Artis offers a year-round lineup of performances, exhibits and visiting artists.

Complementing this anchor institution is the broader Naples Arts District, where galleries, studios and creative spaces offer an intimate and walkable cultural experience.

Extending the performing arts landscape is The Naples Players, a community theater beloved for professional-level performances.

LUXURY REAL ESTATE, WELLNESS AND QUALITY OF LIFE

In Naples, luxury real estate extends beyond property ownership. It represents an investment in lifestyle, privacy and legacy. The market is defined by waterfront estates, gated golf communities and master-planned communities. Market data consistently underscores Naples’ position as a high-value coastal real estate destination with strong appreciation trends. Signature communities, such as Port Royal, exemplify luxury waterfront living. Pelican Bay blends private beach access with a club lifestyle, while Grey Oaks anchors the luxury market with expansive amenities and a strong social ecosystem.

Equally central to Naples’ appeal is its emphasis on wellness, safety and quality of life. The city consistently ranks among the top places to live due to its low crime rates, strong community infrastructure and access to healthcare. Institutions such as NCH Healthcare System provide comprehensive medical services, while broader regional access to centers like the Mayo Clinic further enhances its healthcare ecosystem. This combination of security, wellness and premier real estate results in a lifestyle where luxury is not only defined by property, but by the ability to live well.

DEFINING REFINED LIVING

Naples affords residents a rare synthesis of coastal beauty, cultural refinement and year-round outdoor living. From its arts scene to its secluded shorelines, the city offers a lifestyle defined by intention and balance. It is a place where sophistication endures.

From Dolphin Cruises to Designer Boutiques

From Dolphin Cruises to FAMILY FUN

Before the day’s adventures, a hearty, family-friendly breakfast is in order. Families may enjoy cereal-coated banana brûlée French toast from the Rooster or unique culinary offerings like steak, eggs and cheese sandwiched between eye-catching rainbow bagels from Brooklyn Dough.

After breakfast, a stroll through 43 acres at the Naples Zoo promises zebra, cheetah and python sightings. Families can witness alligators navigating through swampland in Alligator Bay. And spectators who set sail aboard the 20-minute Primate Expedition Cruise across Lake Victoria gain a rewarding view of monkeys, lemurs and apes upon landing at the primates’ island habitat. Next, providing sustenance to zoo inhabitants at a giraffe feeding is on the list. Naples Zoo also offers an abundance of exotic, tropical and subtropical plants to explore.

Those inspired by the zoo’s aquatic animals may enjoy their own water adventure at one of the local water parks. Great Wolf Lodge offers private deluxe cabana package rentals with the option of a stocked refrigerator. Or ask about evening private rentals at Sun-n-Fun Lagoon, where five water slides offer thrills for adventure seekers who can then relax on a tube down the lazy river.

After a day of playing, a substantial meal is in order. Families can start by sharing shrimp nachos, after which kids may enjoy classic favorites like chicken fingers or fish and chips while adults savor grilled swordfish or filet mignon. One favored eatery is the award-winning Dock, a casual waterfront restaurant, complete with boat access.

Designer Boutiques:

The Ultimate 24-Hour Naples Escape

A setting at the edge of the ocean where artists abound, where tourists flock to experience luxurious beaches and a nautical playground and where the word “diverse” describes the abundance of enchanting excursions for all. That setting is Naples.

FRIENDS AND ADVENTURES

For weekend visits, brunch pleases friends who desire a sampler plate. Offerings include prime selections such as cheese soufflé and tuna tartare at Sails Restaurant, or lobster scramble and Turkish eggs at Del Mar. Visitors may enjoy brunch seven days a week at Lavender Café and Bistro with classics like mushroom soup and sea bass or savor a lobster tail omelet or burrata and basil toast from the standard breakfast menu.

There is no shortage of beaches in the Naples area. Friends can take pleasure in luxuriating on the white sands, hunting for seashells and cooling off in the refreshing sparkling waters. Explore 199 acres at Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park, play sand volleyball at Lowdermilk Park or stroll the boardwalk at Clam Pass Park while reveling in 35 acres of natural habitat.

After beachgoing, friends can pick up a piece of Naples to take home while shopping at Fifth Avenue South, where fine pieces from boutiques like Ally Buckley and Hayes Haberdashery express ageless style. Shoppers can close the day just steps away with a fresh stone crab claw platter or cold-water lobster tail, followed by favorite cocktails like an espresso martini or single-barrel Manhattan at Truluck’s or tempting house-made lobster ravioli at Tulia Osteria.

EXCURSIONS FOR COUPLES

The paradise that is Naples abounds with magical excursions for couples. One such experience is a visit to a lush botanical garden, a wonderland of rainforests, succulents and water-lily ponds. Begin with breakfast nearby, with light yet satisfying fare such as smoked salmon flatbread or avocado smash toast. Next, exploring the expansive gardens means passing through Southwest Florida ecosystems, including pond apple swamp and coastal scrub, where gopher tortoises and other animals live. Special events calendars often include live music concerts. Confirming scheduling ahead is recommended.

Another enchanting option is a late-afternoon boat outing for an immersion in Southwest Florida’s natural wonders. Excursions through the Ten Thousand Islands weave among mangrove tunnels, where dolphins surface alongside the boat and birds and manatees inhabit the surrounding waters. Many outings also include a stop at a secluded barrier island, allowing time to wander the shoreline, search for shells, and take in the unspoiled beauty of the coast.

For dinner, fresh seafood is plentiful in Naples, where specialties include blackened salmon tandoori and lobster and shrimp pappardelle pasta, along with non-seafood options like New York steak strip and seared duck. Diners may also choose from mouthwatering entrées such as grilled lobster cheese or stone crab.

A DAY TO REMEMBER

Naples offers abundant ways to experience nature’s elements, through its beaches, parks, preserves, other adventures and even its restaurants. Whatever the visitor, whatever the excursion, Naples, with its exquisite beauty, is unforgettable.
