Section 4.5: Naples

The Perry Hotel Naples offers a tranquil waterfront escape with rooftop views, riverwalk access, and easy connections to the Gulf of Mexico.

Across the state, on the Gulf side, you’ll find Naples, where Great Wolf Lodge has opened a 500-room property whose centerpiece is a 92,000-sq.-ft. indoor water park that features a new water-coaster slide element, a regional family raft adventure called Breakaway Bay, a new multi-level ropes course with a zipline experience and a new virtual reality attraction. Families will also find a 61,000-sq.-ft. adventure park and multiple dining options. 

For guests looking for a more sedate option in the area, recommend the newly opened The Perry Hotel Naples, whose flagship property can be found in Key West. Its 160 rooms offer guests a pampered stay, plus they’ll have access to ground–level and rooftop pools and a seventh-floor open-air rooftop bar and restaurant with panoramic views. The hotel faces the Cocohatchee River with direct channel access to the Gulf of Mexico and Wiggins State Park and a riverwalk through its nature conservation area to a waterfront pier and 8-slip marina for watersports and excursions.
