Have been going here for over 20+ years. Highly recommend this place if you are visiting the Naples area. Top tier and good price. Beach right when you walk out the back :)

Lovely private beach club. Heated swimming pool. Complimentary towels, umbrellas. An attendant will help you set up your chair and umbrella. There is a cafe will a full bar. A standard American food menu. I recommend a frozen margarita beach-side, and the asian chicken lettice wraps for a light but filling bite. Highly recommended.

Peaceful, beautiful home away from home. Been coming here since 1978 as a kid. Small resort with 15 units and most of the people we see every year. Beach is pristine and free bikes, $5.00 kayak rentals, grills, heated pool nd my favorite.. the hammock.

I LOVE this place! Have been going for 30 years since my parents first bought their first time share here...since then we bought 2 more, family and friends have purchase several. It s a place to go that's not overcrowded, small, feel like you know everyone and want to come back! Not pretentious. If you want high style and service. Not for you. If you want layed back and comfortable...perfect!
