On the property
“Our two-bedroom condo was a gem: water views from the front and the back, quiet enough to sleep like a rock, and comfortable in that “I could actually live here” kind of way.”
What couples highlight
“Overall super nice location, beautiful views and the drink service at the beach is super nice, our bartender was the sweetest on April 29th, forgot her name but she worked that day.”
“The next day she is working on the beach then she makes a point to come say hi to us at dinner!”
From the reviews
Midweek getaway for a couple of locals! Haven’t stayed here in some 25+ years, however, this oasis should not be missed. Friendliest staff, location is 10/10, and the accommodations are sweet and cozy as can be! Beautiful garden, pool, and beachfront! What an absolute treat! Don’t miss it!
Beachy, breezy, and blissfully easy — loved our stay! We had a fantastic stay at the Vanderbilt Resort in Naples. The location couldn’t be better — just a quick stroll to the beach and an easy hop into town, so we never had to choose between sand time and dinner plans.
Visited for dinner with friends. Restaurant is fine dining and cost. Resort is quite busy and beach a bit crowded for our liking but lovely and sandy. Sunset watching from the beach is a must. A bit too crowded for our liking but fine if you like that kind of thing.

Getting married at The Vanderbilt Beach Resort
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
