Understated Luxury in Naples, Florida

Fans of Naples, Florida, are lured by its miles-long white-sand beaches, world-class golf courses, and high-end boutiques. And now there’s another reason to put down stakes in the Gulf Coast destination: This year, The Residences at Naples Beach Club will make its grand debut, following last year’s opening of Naples Beach Club, a Four Seasons Resort.

The Residences are the result of a collaboration between Four Seasons and Discovery Land Company, a premier global developer known for crafting considered luxury communities. Located in historic Old Naples, close to lively 5th Avenue and 3rd Street, the multi-building beachfront property is expansive (spanning 50 hectares) but feels intimate and community-minded—like an idyllic coastal village—thanks to thoughtful design.

Beach or pool day? Why not both?

“The Residences at Naples Beach Club is setting a superior standard for luxury living and service, not just among Discovery’s diverse portfolio of international clubs, but within the Naples community. As we debut in the region, we’re excited to partner with Four Seasons to enhance both our legacies in offering high-end experiences and moments that last a lifetime,” said Mike Meldman, founder and chairman of Discovery Land Company.

The offerings consist of 58 Beachside Residences (distributed over three buildings) and 95 Golfside Residences (spread over five buildings). The latter units enjoy sweeping views of The Gardens, a new 18-hole golf course designed by world-renowned golf course architect Tom Fazio. Dense with beautiful lakes, native palms and tropical flora, the course channels a lush Old Florida landscape. Residents will delight in the precision hitting bays, comfort stations with grab-and-go fare, and the Range House, with its wraparound porch, bar and lounge, logo shop, and fire-pit area.

Indoor-outdoor living at its finest.

There will be no shortage of perks and experiences for non-golfers as well. All Residents have access to the beachfront Residents’ Beach Club (with indoor-outdoor dining, member lounge, spa, and fitness center) and Residents’ Beach House (featuring adult and family pools, a beachside concierge, and coastal cuisine offerings). And, of course, Residents will be able to avail themselves of the full spread of amenities at the Resort itself, among them six tennis courts; a standalone two-story, 2,800-square-metre spa that houses treatment rooms as well as Finnish saunas, vitality pools, cold plunge zones, experiential showers, and a rooftop pool; and five restaurants, including The Merchant Room (helmed by two-time James Beard Award-winner Gavin Kaysen), HB’s (for fresh regional seafood), and Sunset Bar (with a Latin-inspired cocktail and bites menu). The latter two are the only places to offer beachfront dining in all of Old Naples.

And then there is the Market Square, a cluster of retail, dining, and entertainment options designed to be a buzzy social hub for guests, Residents, and locals alike. Naples Trading Company, a coffee shop with sundries, beer and wine, and gifts, recently opened its doors at The Square. Currently under development are The Wager, a family-friendly sports gastro-pub (complete with game room and four bowling lanes), and a state-of-the-art movie theatre that will show first-run movies.

New + Noteworthy: The Latest in Luxury Travel

The Four Seasons family is growing. Here are four new ways to experience our distinctive luxury hospitality.

Four Seasons Resort and Residences Puerto Rico

Situated along two miles of golden sand near El Yunque National Forest (the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. forest system), the new Four Seasons Resort and Residences Puerto Rico is a modern sanctuary on the island. For the utmost in seclusion, stay in one of the property’s airy and contemporary Villa & Residence Rentals. The collection includes the five-bedroom villa Casa Estancias, which features its own driveway, a saltwater pool, and an oceanfront lawn. Villa guests have access to the services of a dedicated host, who can coordinate in-villa spa treatments, meals by a private chef, and pre-arrival kitchen stocking, plus a personal golf cart for exploring the resort, which is set within a 483-acre nature reserve. —Julie Pham

Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort

While Miami dazzles with nightlife and Orlando thrills with theme parks, Naples, Florida, offers a different rhythm with its inviting blend of coastal serenity and cultural appeal. The city boasts more than 100 art galleries, has more golf courses per capita than any other U.S. city, and affords a host of water activities, from kayaking to e-foiling. The elegant Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort, adds to the destination’s allure. Set on 125 acres along a stretch of powder-soft sand, the new property features rooms and suites with coastal-inspired décor, such as sea glass chandeliers, and furnished terraces. On-site dining includes the Merchant Room, the signature ocean-view restaurant from the James Beard Award–winning chef Gavin Kaysen, and Sunset Bar, the perfect place to toast the end of another day in paradise. The property also affords a distinctive portfolio of Four Seasons Private Residences, with interiors by the acclaimed firm Champalimaud Design, and will soon welcome the Sanctuary Spa, and the Gardens, a new Tom Fazio–designed golf course. —Susan B. Barnes

Four Seasons Private Jet Experience

For 2027, Four Seasons Private Jet Experience unveils its latest New World Icons journey, a thrilling new itinerary designed for travellers seeking the world’s most distinctive places. The seven destination trip includes five new spots never before featured by Four Seasons: Jaipur, India (for a gala event complete with a camel polo demonstration); Iceland (with snowmobiling and a swim in the Blue Lagoon); and Anguilla (to ply the crystal-clear Caribbean in a glass-bottomed kayak), plus new properties in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, and Italy, where Danieli, A Four Seasons Hotel, Venice (pictured above), opens in 2026. —J.P.

Four Seasons I Yacht Voyages

Some ships simply float; Four Seasons I reinvents what a yacht can be. Launching in March with Mediterranean voyages, the flagship vessel of Four Seasons Yachts delivers luxury at sea through structural intent, beginning with an interior steel frame that pulls load-bearing elements away from the perimeter to let glass wrap the exterior. The effect for guests is immediate: every suite, salon, and stairwell is oriented to the water.

Midship embodies the boldest idea. Built by Fincantieri in Italy, Four Seasons I carries the Marina (pictured below) through the vessel’s centre rather than tucking it at the stern, so doors can open port, starboard, or both at once. Pop-out, sea-level decks create inviting spaces where guests can lounge and relax, take a dip in a contained ocean pool, and enjoy a full suite of water-sports gear.

All 95 suites feature eight-foot ceilings, water-facing beds, and private terraces edged in glass. Guests can head ashore via custom Grand Touring vessels, including a salon-like, 33-foot Limo Tender and an intrepid Beachlander.

Shaped from the inside out to keep the horizon front and centre, Four Seasons I turns ocean travel into what it should be: unbroken views, easy water access, and the journey in focus. —Paul Jebar
