So, where might you find Luxury homes in Naples?
One of the first things to consider as you begin your search is what truly defines luxury for you. Do you dream of a waterfront estate with a private dock, or is your ideal lifestyle centered around a world-class golf course? Are you drawn to the convenience and views of a high-rise condominium, or the privacy and space of a single-family home? Answering these questions will be your best guide as you begin to explore the unparalleled options Naples has to offer.
Some of the places I’m likely to introduce you to are listed below. Each one offers its own version of luxury whether you're dreaming of beachfront sunsets, championship golf, deep-water dockage, or vibrant downtown living.
Port Royal
Arguably the crown jewel of Naples luxury real estate, Port Royal is synonymous with prestige. This exclusive waterfront enclave is home to some of the most expensive and breathtaking properties in the entire country. A defining feature of Port Royal is its diverse waterfront offerings. While many homes are magnificent estates situated on deep-water canals with private docks, a select few are spectacular beachfront mansions located directly on the Gulf of Mexico. The wide canals allow for large yachts to navigate with ease, offering a boater's paradise with swift, bridgeless access to the Gulf. The coveted beachfront homes, commanding the highest prices, provide a truly unparalleled experience with private access to the pristine white sand.
One of the most uniquely exceptional aspects of Port Royal is the Port Royal Club—a private, members-only beachfront haven offering world-class dining, a stunning beachside pool, tennis facilities, spa services, and a social calendar that defines Naples' elite coastal lifestyle.
Despite its elite status, Port Royal is not a gated community. And yet, it remains one of the most private and secure neighborhoods in all of Naples. That’s part of the magic here - it’s impeccably maintained, intensely private, and naturally shielded by its layout and surroundings. It’s a favorite among yacht owners, celebrities, and anyone seeking top-tier waterfront living without sacrificing proximity to downtown. If you're looking for the ultimate blend of prestige, privacy, and Gulf Coast beauty, Port Royal is as exclusive as it gets.
Old Naples
This is hands-down one of my all-time favorite neighborhoods in all of Naples. Olde Naples offers that rare blend of charm, character, and coastal luxury that’s hard to find anywhere else. If your idea of luxury includes tree-lined streets, custom homes with a breezy coastal flair, and the ability to walk to the beach, the Naples Pier, and the shops and restaurants along 5th Avenue South this is your place. Here, you’ll find everything from historic cottages to spectacular new construction estates, each with its own architectural personality and story to tell.
What’s especially interesting is the varied relationship properties have with the Gulf. While a handful of homes are directly on the beach, offering unparalleled views and private access, a great many more are "beach-close"—just a short stroll or bike ride away. This provides a fantastic lifestyle where the beach is part of your daily routine without the premium price tag of a direct beachfront lot. And unlike some other exclusive areas, you won't find canal-front homes here, reinforcing the neighborhood’s focus on its pedestrian-friendly,
downtown coastal charm. What also sets Olde Naples apart is that, despite its prestige, there are no HOA fees—a refreshing rarity in the luxury market. This adds a sense of freedom and individuality to the community, allowing homeowners to truly make their property their own. It's elegant without being overdone, lively without being hectic, and filled with that unmistakable Old Florida charm. Whether you're sipping coffee on your front porch or strolling to dinner in flip-flops and linen, Olde Naples just makes life feel effortless and elevated all at once.
Aqualane Shores
If Port Royal is the crown jewel of Naples, then Aqualane Shores is the stunning runner-up that turns just as many heads—and for good reason.While it may not carry quite the same prestige or oversized lots as Port Royal, Aqualane Shores offers an exceptional luxury lifestyle that’s just as appealing to many buyers especially those who want to be a touch closer to the heart of downtown. Tucked between Olde Naples and Port Royal, this waterfront neighborhood delivers canal-front living in abundance, with deep-water access that makes it a dream for boaters.
The homes here are every bit as gorgeous—think sleek modern builds, elegant coastal designs, and custom estates that maximize water views and indoor-outdoor living. The lots are typically smaller than those found in Port Royal, but that also means less maintenance and, for many, a more manageable footprint without sacrificing luxury. And just like Port Royal, Aqualane Shores is non-gated. Yet it still offers a sense of exclusivity and quiet, tucked-away living that residents love. Add in its walkable proximity to 5th Avenue South, 3rd Street South, and the beach, and you’ve got a location that checks all the boxes for a Naples lifestyle that’s stylish, convenient, and effortlessly upscale.
Bay Colony (in Pelican Bay)
When it comes to gated luxury living in Naples, Bay Colony is in a league of its own. Widely recognized as the most prestigious gated community in Naples, this enclave offers the kind of exclusivity, elegance, and elevated service that discerning buyers expect—and then some.
Tucked within the larger Pelican Bay development, Bay Colony offers a rare combination of location, lifestyle, and luxury. While it’s slightly farther from downtown Naples than communities like Olde Naples, Aqualane Shores, or Port Royal, the amenities here are so rich and thoughtfully curated that you truly won’t miss a thing. In fact, you may find yourself preferring the peaceful distance from the bustle of downtown—especially when you realize everything you need is right at your fingertips.
Unlike the other ultra-luxury neighborhoods mentioned above, Bay Colony features its own private, resident-only amenities in addition to access to the broader offerings of Pelican Bay. That means residents enjoy a private Bay Colony beach club, exclusive tennis facilities, fine dining venues, and concierge-level services—all in addition to Pelican Bay’s renowned beach trams, miles of walking trails, beachfront restaurants, fitness centers, and social events.
As for real estate, Bay Colony offers a diverse mix of home styles. From Gulf-front high-rises with panoramic sunset views, to luxury villas, townhomes, and grand estate homes, every property is beautifully maintained and architecturally refined. It’s one of the few communities in Naples where you can choose your lifestyle—high-rise elegance, low-maintenance luxury, or a private single-family residence—all within a secured, amenity-rich setting. The ambiance in Bay Colony is polished and peaceful. It’s not just gated—it’s gracefully gated. With its meticulous landscaping, attentive staff, and sense of quiet prestige, Bay Colony delivers five-star resort living in a residential package.
Coquina Sands
Let me let you in on a little secret—well, it used to be a secret. For years, Coquina Sands quietly flew under the radar, nestled between Olde Naples and The Moorings. But those who knew about it appreciated its oversized lots, prime location, and classic Naples charm. These days, it’s no longer Naples' best-kept secret—it’s a rising star in the luxury market, thanks in large part to its transformation and the new energy it’s attracting.
One of the most exciting developments here is the emergence of the Naples Beach Club, a highly anticipated luxury community being built on the site of the beloved former Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club. This reimagined waterfront destination includes a world-class Four Seasons Hotel, luxury residences, and high-end retail and dining—all designed to elevate the neighborhood to new heights. It’s a game-changer for Coquina Sands and a huge draw for those who want the best of Naples’ future without sacrificing its heritage.
But even before this reinvention, Coquina Sands had plenty going for it. The neighborhood is known for its large, maturely landscaped lots, many of which are larger than what you'll find in nearby Olde Naples or The Moorings. The architecture is a mix of original ranch-style homes, elegant renovations, and impressive new construction estates—giving the community a beautiful and diverse streetscape.
Another standout feature? Lowdermilk Park, one of Naples’ most popular and scenic public beaches, is located right within the neighborhood. With its soft white sand, family-friendly vibe, picnic pavilions, and beachfront access, it’s a huge bonus for both residents and visitors.
Coquina Sands is a non-gated community, but don’t let that fool you it feels private and peaceful, with wide streets lined by banyan trees and a welcoming, established neighborhood feel. And while you’re just minutes from downtown Naples and all the dining, shopping, and culture along 5th Avenue South, you’re also tucked away just enough to enjoy a bit more space and serenity.
If you’re looking for a community that blends Old Florida charm, modern luxury, beach access, and a touch of exciting new development, Coquina Sands deserves a spot on your list. It’s a neighborhood with history, heart, and a very bright future.
Moorings
When people ask me which West of US-41 community in Naples offers that perfect blend of location, lifestyle, and livability—The Moorings is always high on my list. It’s one of those neighborhoods that quietly checks all the boxes without needing to shout about it.
What sets The Moorings apart, especially from its neighbors like Olde Naples and Coquina Sands, is that it tends to attract more year-round residents and families. There’s a relaxed, welcoming vibe here—think kids on bikes, morning dog walks, and neighbors who actually wave hello. And from a real estate standpoint, it’s full of opportunity. Whether you’re looking for an updated ranch-style classic, a charming canal-front home, or a brand-new custom build, The Moorings offers variety and—dare I say it a touch of value in a luxury package.
Because here’s the truth: if luxury can also mean value, The Moorings might just check the box. Compared to some of the more headline-grabbing neighborhoods nearby, you can often find larger lots, waterfront options, and beautifully renovated homes for a bit less without sacrificing lifestyle or location.
One of the most beloved features of the neighborhood is the Moorings Private Beach Park, available exclusively to homeowners who opt in. This gated beachfront spot offers private parking, restroom facilities, and a peaceful stretch of sand that feels like your own personal retreat. It’s a perfect blend of exclusivity and ease.The community is also home to The Moorings Golf & Country Club, a low-key, intimate course that appeals to those looking for a more relaxed and accessible club environment. It’s tucked right into the heart of the neighborhood, making it ideal for those who want to hit the links or socialize without having to leave their own backyard.
And let’s talk convenience. The Moorings is centrally located with quick access to 5th Avenue South, 3rd Street, Waterside Shops, Venetian Village, and Artis–Naples. Whether you’re craving waterfront dining, boutique shopping, or catching a Broadway show, it’s all within minutes. The Moorings is a non-gated community, but it still offers a calm, well-kept, and upscale environment. With wide streets, mature trees, and homes that range from charming to showstopping, it’s a neighborhood that offers both flexibility and sophistication and for those with an eye for smart luxury, it’s an absolute gem.
Park Shore
If you're looking for a community in Naples that offers incredible flexibility, waterfront living, and urban convenience, Park Shore is one that truly stands out. I often describe it as a “choose your own adventure” neighborhood—because whether you’re dreaming of a beachfront high-rise, a cozy condo, or a single-family home near great schools, Park Shore has it all.
One of the things that makes Park Shore so unique is its blend of lifestyle offerings. It’s home to some of the only high-rises in Naples, many of them situated right on the Gulf or the bay, offering jaw-dropping views and resort-style amenities. But beyond the sky-high living, there’s a wonderful mix of modest condos, bayfront residences, and single-family homes tucked into quiet streets just east of Gulf Shore Boulevard. There’s truly something for every type of buyer without sacrificing that coveted coastal Naples feel.
For boaters, Park Shore is a dream. Even if your home isn’t directly on the water, you can still enjoy the boating lifestyle thanks to boat docks available for lease or purchase through the Park Shore Association giving you access to the Gulf without having to live directly on the canal or bay. Another huge perk? The Park Shore private beach park, which is exclusive to residents and available for a very reasonable membership fee. It includes parking, restrooms, and easy access to a beautiful stretch of beach. It’s the kind of amenity that adds real value to everyday living and is perfect for anyone who loves to dip their toes in the sand without dealing with the crowds at public access points.
Families love Park Shore not only for the neighborhood feel but also for its proximity to top-rated schools, including Seagate Elementary, which is within walking or biking distance for many residents. It’s a major draw for full-time residents looking for both convenience and community. And let’s not forget the lifestyle amenities The Village Shops on Venetian Bay is right in the heart of the neighborhood. It’s a charming waterfront destination for dining, shopping, sipping wine by the bay, or simply taking a sunset stroll. It brings a sense of everyday luxury and walkable convenience that so many buyers are looking for.
Geographically, Park Shore also begins to bridge the transition from central Naples into North Naples, making it a strategic location whether you’re heading downtown or up toward Mercato, Waterside Shops, or Pelican Bay. If you're looking for a waterfront community with options, whether that's boating, beach access, schools, or shopping, Park Shore has a way of checking a lot of boxes. It’s upscale but approachable, lively but peaceful, and one of Naples’ most well-rounded luxury neighborhoods.
Pine Ride Estates
As we move just east of U.S. 41, leaving behind the beachfront neighborhoods and high-rises of West Naples, we land in one of the most unique and sought-after communities in North Naples - Pine Ridge Estates.
Let me tell you, this neighborhood is unlike anything else in Naples. Pine Ridge Estates is all about space, privacy, and jaw-dropping estate living right in the middle of town. It’s one of the only places in Naples where you can find multi-acre lots just minutes from the beach, top-tier shopping, dining, and A-rated schools. If you're someone who wants to spread out a bit, maybe add a guest house, detached garage, art studio, or even a horse barn—this is where you can do it.
While Pine Ridge doesn’t offer community-wide amenities like a beach club or golf course, what it does offer are some of the most unbelievable private residences in all of Naples. Think gated entries, tree-lined driveways, multi-wing homes with home theaters and wine rooms, resort-style pools, and outdoor kitchens that rival five-star hotels. Some homes are more traditional Old Florida, while others are cutting-edge modern masterpieces. The variety and creativity here are unmatched. The lack of an HOA gives homeowners freedom—whether that means bringing your vision to life without layers of restrictions or just enjoying the autonomy that comes with not being part of a master-planned development. And while that might sound like a trade-off, the pride of ownership in Pine Ridge Estates is strong. Homes are meticulously maintained, and the neighborhood feels peaceful, polished, and established.
Location-wise, you’re in a sweet spot. Mercato, Waterside Shops, Artis–Naples, and Seagate Beach are all just minutes away, and you're also within easy reach of both central and North Naples conveniences. It’s rare to find this much land in this kind of location—especially in a city known for its luxury condos and coastal enclaves. If you're dreaming of a custom luxury estate with room to breathe, all while staying close to the action, Pine Ridge Estates might just be your ideal Naples landing spot.

Whether you're searching for prestige, privacy, convenience, or that resort-in-your-backyard feeling, these communities are worth exploring.
Grey Oaks is the crown jewel when it comes to golf course living right in the heart of Naples. Centrally located just minutes from downtown, it features three championship courses, a stunning clubhouse, and a long list of luxury amenities—from tennis and pickleball to a full-service spa and wellness center. The homes here are truly spectacular, ranging from luxury villas to grand estates, all surrounded by lush landscaping and lake or golf views. If you want a country club lifestyle without compromise, Grey Oaks is the gold standard.
If you're looking for something a little more tucked away, Mediterra is a gorgeous, gated community with a relaxed, nature-inspired vibe. It’s known for its two Tom Fazio-designed golf courses, elegant Tuscan-style homes, and a private beach club on Bonita Beach that gives it a rare coastal twist. The community is beautifully landscaped, with nature trails and walking paths that make every day feel serene and luxurious.
For a more modern and social twist on golf living, Talis Park is a standout. With sleek, contemporary homes, a village-style layout, and a strong sense of community, Talis Park offers a newer, more youthful feel. The Greg Norman/Pete Dye-designed course is fun and challenging, and the amenities like the clubhouse café, resort pool, and full calendar of events—create a vibrant, resort-like atmosphere.
Then there’s Quail West, which sits just along the Naples - Bonita Springs line but draws strong interest from Naples buyers thanks to its wow-factor amenities and sprawling estate homes. With two 18-hole courses, a palatial clubhouse, and some of the most stunning properties in the area, it offers a grander, more secluded version of golf course luxury. The lots are large, the landscaping is meticulous, and the lifestyle is every bit as elevated as you’d expect.
Last but not least is Pelican Marsh a community that offers something for nearly everyone. While parts of it are more modest, it still delivers beautifully on location, lifestyle, and amenities. The private Pelican Marsh Golf Club is a favorite among locals, and for those seeking a more exclusive experience, it also houses the Bay Colony Golf Club, one of the most refined golf clubs in all of Naples. Add in the community’s central location near Mercato, Waterside Shops, and the beach, and it’s easy to see why Pelican Marsh continues to appeal to both full-time and seasonal residents.

These communities go far beyond the fairways—they’re about connection, comfort, and living every day like you're on vacation. If you're ready to explore them, I’d love to be your guide.
