New hotels in Naples

We track four new hotels in Naples, Florida, all opened between March 2025 and May 2026, plus one confirmed for late 2027. Three sit in or near the Old Naples Historic District around Third Street South and Fifth Avenue South; the fourth is a marina-front property on the Cocohatchee River in North Naples. Couples and design travelers do best in Old Naples, within walking distance of the beach and the town's boutique shopping streets; families and boaters should look at North Naples' riverfront corridor instead.

What to do

A weekend in Naples

Spend the first day in Old Naples: walk Third Street South's gardens and boutiques in the morning, then Fifth Avenue South's wider restaurant strip in the evening, both a short walk from Olde Naples Hotel and Naples Beach Club. In between, cross to the Naples Pier for sunset over the Gulf of Mexico: a short walk from either hotel. On the second day, drive north about 20 minutes to the Cocohatchee River for a boat excursion or a meal at The Perry Hotel's rooftop restaurant, Tigress, before heading back for a second evening in Old Naples.

A full week

A week adds the Naples Botanical Garden and the Baker Museum for a rainy-day option, plus a half-day at the Saturday farmers market on Third Street South, between Broad Avenue and 13th Avenue South. Golfers should build in a round on the Naples Beach Club's new Tom Fazio course, and boaters can use The Perry Hotel's eight-slip marina as a base for a Gulf of Mexico outing. Waterside Shops, across US 41 from the site where The Carnelian Hotel is under construction, is worth an afternoon for higher-end shopping away from the historic downtown core.

Where to stay

Old Naples: Third Street South and the beachfront

Olde Naples Hotel opened in May 2026 as a ground-up rebuild in the Third Street South Historic District, one block from the beach, designed by Hart Howerton to evoke the original 1889 Naples Hotel that once stood on the site (109 rooms with cottage-inspired design and a rooftop pool. Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort opened in November 2025 on 125 acres of beachfront a short walk south, replacing the longtime Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club with 220 rooms, 153 branded residences and a new Tom Fazio golf course) Four Seasons' first Southwest Florida property. The Carnelian Hotel, confirmed for late 2027, is under construction at 5400 Trail Blvd. in North Naples, a 70-suite project from the family behind Naples' longstanding Inn on Fifth, sharing a six-story building with a private club but bookable directly by hotel guests.

North Naples: the Cocohatchee River

The Perry Hotel Naples opened in March 2025 on the Cocohatchee River in North Naples, a roughly $80 million, 160-room build from FOD Capital with an eight-slip marina, two pools and a rooftop Cantonese restaurant, Tigress, from chef Dale Talde: the second outpost of the Key West-born Perry brand.

Which hotel for your trip

Couples and design travelers

Olde Naples Hotel's Third Street South address and cottage-inspired design suit a couple who want to walk to the beach and the town's boutique shopping without a car, while Naples Beach Club's scale and new golf course pair a beach stay with more resort-style amenities and dining.

Boaters and travelers who want water access

The Perry Hotel Naples' eight-slip marina with direct Gulf of Mexico access is the clearest fit among the four hotels tracked here for anyone arriving by boat or planning a fishing or sunset cruise excursion.

Travelers waiting on Naples' next opening

The Carnelian Hotel, targeting late 2027 in North Naples, will add a smaller, 70-suite luxury option near the Waterside Shops once it opens: worth checking back on as construction progresses.
