Naples Bay Resort & Marina is a full-service waterfront retreat in Naples, Florida, offering direct bay access, a private marina, and resort amenities steps from downtown.
Naples Bay Resort & Marina sits at 1500 5th Ave S in Naples, Florida, a location that has long served as a working waterfront gateway to the Gulf of Mexico. The resort grew around a marina culture that dates back decades, when commercial fishing and recreational boating first shaped this stretch of the bay's eastern shore.
Guests and day visitors alike can arrange boat tours departing directly from the marina, venturing out through Naples Bay toward the open Gulf or south through Gordon Pass toward barrier island shallows rich with dolphins and wading birds. The surrounding waters are well suited to fishing charters targeting snook, redfish, and tarpon in the estuary system.
The resort itself offers pools, dining, and well-appointed accommodations, all oriented toward the water. Nearby, the shops and eateries of Tin City are a short stroll along the waterfront, adding a lively local character to any stay.
Few properties in Naples combine marina convenience with resort comfort as seamlessly, making Naples Bay Resort & Marina a natural base for exploring everything Southwest Florida's coast has to offer.
Visit during the dry season, November through April, when calm winds and clear skies make on-water activities most enjoyable.
Rent a kayak or paddleboard from the marina to explore the quiet backwater channels that wind through the surrounding mangroves.
Walk half a mile north to browse the waterfront shops and seafood restaurants clustered along the historic dockside district.
Book a slip well in advance if you are arriving by boat during the winter season, as the marina fills quickly with seasonal visitors.
Bring polarized sunglasses for any time spent on the water, as the shallow bay flats produce intense glare throughout the day.
