Naples has so much to offer beyond the beaches

While Southwest Florida is known for its white sand, Naples has so much to offer beyond the beaches. From fine dining and luxury shopping to adventurous outdoor experiences, there really is something for everyone. 


The Inn at Pelican Bay is a 100-room upscale 4-Diamond boutique hotel, and upon your arrival you’ll find our beautiful hotel has an amazing ambiance at any time of day or night.


Naples rivals larger cities with dining and shopping on 5th Avenue South, where you can shop at some of the most fashionable boutiques. After that, you can stroll down 5th , visiting one of the many art galleries before enjoying a relaxing evening with dinner at one of the many bistros with outdoor dining.


At Mercato you’ll find boutiques and shops offering the latest swimwear, home furnishings, jewelry, apparel and shoes. Also home to Whole Foods, Nordstrom rack, and state-of-the-art movie theater. Not to mention, 30 pet-friendly shops and restaurants!


Wanting to hit the open water? Take a charter boat or sunset cruise to see dolphins in the wild. We also offer the AWE Kayak Package, a kayaking/stand up paddleboard tour with a 20% discount for Inn at Pelican Bay guest who book through the hotel.


Another great way to see the city is by bicycle. Gulf Shore Boulevard and Gordon Drive are lined with multi-million-dollar beachfront homes. You can rent a bike at a local cycle shop and take a self-guided tour to see the breathtaking architecture and landscaping. Then, take the bike-friendly 5th Avenue South over to Tin City.


At Tin City, they specialize in antiques and local handmade novelties. You can buy food, antiques, clothes, seashells, candles, wine, mood rings, and more.


If you prefer hitting the links, Naples has top world-class golf courses. You’ll find seasoned golf pros and PGA courses designed by some of the best architects.


During the day, you can relax in the pool or hot tub while enjoying the lake views. And after a day of adventure, you’ll find our guests relaxing around the inn’s cozy fire pit when the sun goes down.

 

With so much to do, our staff is always happy to make recommendations for places to go that are just right for you.

                                                               

If you’re ready for a relaxing trip, we’d love to help make it happen at the Inn at Pelican Bay! Check our rates and availability.
